General Purpose Bombs

• The 312kg and 505kg general purpose bombs use
  unitary blast warheads and can be dropped as
  unguided freefall bombs or fitted with a retarder
  unit, allowing aircraft to drop a bomb at low
  level over the target and get clear before
  detonation.
• Both bombs have three modes of detonation above
  a target in airburst mode, impact detonation, or
  post-impact detonation after a pre-set delay.
