English: Persian Gulf (Feb. 8, 2005) - Lance Cpl. Jack Hoppes, left, and Lance Cpl. Joshua Willis, both assigned to the "Silver Eagles" of Marine Strike Fighter Squadron One One Five (VMFA-115), load a GBU-38 500 pound satellite guided bomb onto one of the squadron's F/A-18A+ Hornets, prior to flight operations aboard USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75). The GBU-38 is a 500-pound Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) that uses a standard Mk-82 bomb, and was developed for precision bombing in urban warfare. The Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) is a guidance kit that converts existing unguided bombs into precision-guided "smart" munitions. The tail section contains an inertial navigational system (INS) and a global positioning system (GPS). JDAM improves the accuracy of unguided bombs in any weather condition. Carrier Air Wing Three (CVW-3) is embarked aboard Truman and is providing close air support and conducting intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance over Iraq. The Truman Carrier Strike Group is on a regularly scheduled deployment in support of the global war on terrorism. U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate 3rd Class Craig R. Spiering (RELEASED) |
