Elbit Systems has developed an applique tail and wing kit for unguided, air-launched munitions, which is intended to extend their range and enhance accuracy.
Speaking to Janes at Eurosatory 2022 defence exhibition in Paris, Nir Halamish, Elbit Systems senior vice-president for munition systems and ammunition, said that the Range Extension and Smart Tail (REST) kit can be fitted to Mk 82 and Mk 83 bombs, enabling them to strike targets out to a distance of 120 km and with a circular error probable (CEP) of 10 m when an aircraft is flying at an optimum profile of 36,000 ft and Mach 0.9.
Development of REST commenced around two and a half years ago, and was spurred by the recognition that many countries have significant stocks of unguided munitions, which would be costly to replace with modern guided types, Halamish added.
