SARB-83
Sequential Penetrator Bomb
SARB-83 is a concrete-piercing munition with Warhead Technology (WMD) designed for use against surface and underground targets.
The external geometry, guidance kit interfaces, mass, center of mass and inertial properties of the SARB-83 are similar to the MK-83 GMB:
- High drilling efficiency even at low impact speeds and angles
- High effectiveness against secondary targets with pre-shaped particles used in the Pre-Penetrator design
- Ability to be used against different target types
- Potential to be used with all guidance kits compatible with MK-83 GMB
- Potential to be fired from all aircraft capable of carrying MK-83 GMB
