DownloadPGB-128 (Precision Gliding Bomb) – Pinpoint Accuracy with Less Damage
|
As technology changes, the nature of the precision weapon changes as well. While more advanced, lethal, lighter, agile, and more affordable air-deployed precision weapon concepts are emerging, EDePro prides itself in developing the PGB-128 (Precision Gliding Bomb) a standoff precision-guided weapon, as an ideal answer to the challenges of today’s combat aircraft. Conceived as an air-to-ground weapon, PGB-128 is capable of engaging fixed, re-locatable, and moving targets. Advanced data link, navigation, guidance, and homing technologies answer the challenges of the most critical attack missions with pinpoint accuracy and decreased collateral damage. The 128 mm (5-inch caliber) round allows a single strike aircraft to carry a higher number of more accurate bombs. The modular design of the weapon enables PGB-128 to accommodate different warhead types, such as blast fragmentation, anti-armor, or thermobaric. |
PGB-128 advanced flight performances have been achieved due to the integration of an efficient diamondback wing concept with a very light airframe structure, which increases maximum operational range up to 25 km, from release altitude of 7620m and with the maximum speed up to 200 m/s. The weapon allows release from Low-Speed, Medium, and High-Speed Aircraft and is carried by NATO standard 14" lugs. With GPS/INS guidance and a SAL seeker system expected accuracy (CEP) is 1.5m at all distances. |
