 BASIC CONCEPT OF BOMB
Basic concept of a bomb could hardly be simpler
Grenades have played a part in welfare for hundred of year

They were originally developed around 1000AD by the

chinese
The typical design of these early grenades was a
hollow metal container filled with gun powder.
By the 18th century , these weapons had fallen out of favour
 FUZE MECHANISM
A conventional bomb consists some explosive materialpacked
into sturdy case with a fuse mechanism .
A fuze may be a mechanical or electrical system
detonate an explosive charge or
device
such as a bomb or
A target proximity sensor –witch sets the bomb off.
When the trigger off ,the fuze ignites the explosive
Material,resulting in an explosion

GENERAL COMBINATION OF CIRCUITS FOR

IGNITION IN A BOMB
 DUMB BOMB
A "dumb bomb" is a bomb with only these elements,
The bomb is considered "dumb" because it simply falls
to the ground without actively steering itself
Needless to say, it's some feat hitting a target precisely
with this type of weapon.
A bomber might have to drop dozens, or even hundreds
of dumb bombs to take out a target effectively.
 SMART BOMB

“Smart bombs," by contrast, control their fall precisely in order

to hit a designated target dead on.

SMART BOMB BASICS

An electronic sensor system.

A built in control system.

A set adjustable flight fins.

A battery.
The control system and adjustable fins give the bomb
a way to steer itself as it glides through the air.
While the bomb is "in flight," the sensor system
and control system track the designated target on the ground

The sensor system feeds the control system the relative

position of the target, and the control system

processes this information and figures out how

the bomb should turn to steer toward the target.
To actually turn the bomb, the control system sends
a message to actuators that adjust the flight fins.
YESTERDAY’S SMART BOMB

-TV/IR guided bomb

-Laser guided bomb

Both use visual sensors to locate

Ground targets

This smart bomb, enhanced guided bomb unit -27,

Has an optical sensor system ,an on board computer,
Adjustable flight fins and a battery that power everything.
YESTERDAY’S SMART BOMB

TV/IR guided bomb.

Laser guided bomb.

(Both use visual sensors to locate

Ground targets .)
A TV/IR-guided bomb has either a conventional
television video camera or an infrared camera
(for night vision) mounted to its nose.

In remote-operation mode, the controller relays

information through radio signals to a human operator
who is usually onboard the bomber plane.
The remote operator relays commands to the control system
to steer the bomb through the air -- the bomb acts
something like a remote-control plane.
In this mode, the operator may launch the
bomb without a specific target and sight, and then
pick up the target from the video as the bomb gets closer to the gr
In automatic mode, the pilot locates a target through
the bomb's video camera prior to launch and
sends a signal to the bomb telling it to lock on to the target.
The bomb's control system steers the bomb
so that the indicated target image always stays near the
center of the video display. In this way,
the bomb zeros in on the locked target automatically.
Laser-guided smart bombs work a little differently
Instead of a video camera sensor, the bomb has
a laser seeker -- an array of photo diodes.
As you might expect, the photo diodes are sensitive
to a particular frequency of laser light. For the bomb to see
its target, a separate human operator,
either on the ground or in the air, has to "paint" the
designated target with a high-intensity laser beam.
The laser beam reflects off the target,
and the laser seeker picks it up.

 THE J.D.A.M
Joint direct attack munition
Adjustable tail fins.

control computer.

inertial guidance system.

GPS system.
 The JDAM
The preeminent smart-bomb technology of the day is Boeing's JDAM,
which stands for Joint Direct Attack Munition.
The basic idea behind the JDAM program is to outfit existing
"dumb" bombs with sophisticated rear guidance sections.
The JDAM "tail kit" includes adjustable tail fins, a control computer,
an inertial guidance system and a GPS receiver.
Both the GPS receiver and the inertial guidance system allow the bom
to locate itself in space. The GPS receiver figures out its position
by interpreting GPS satellite signals
while the inertial guidance system monitors the bomb's
movements, tracking its path from its launch position.
