AASM

AASM ( Modular Air-to-ground Armament ) is a " kit" , developed by SAGEM in the Years 2000, which can adapt on any type of bends of 250 kg (Mk82, BLU 111, CBEMS…).

It combines a planing Empennage and a system of Guidage INS/GPS making it possible to transform any Bombe smoothes out of decametric weapon of precision (10 m). An improved version, equipped with a system of imagery Infra-rouge will allow a metric precision of day like night per good weather.

3000 specimens were ordered by the Air force. The range is also increased with more de15 km at low altitude and until more than 50 km with high-altitude (approximately 60 km).

Other versions are in the long term envisaged, among which a version for bomb of a ton, a version guided by Laser, a version with guidance radar or a version anti-radar. It will enter in service in other on the Dassault Rafale.
