Historically, the GBU-54 is a modern bomb guided by both laser and GPS, developed by Boeing as part of the JDAM family. Bombs of this type have been widely used since 2008 during operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria. They are designed for precision strikes that minimize collateral damage—setting the current standard for armament of Western air forces.

Each bomb in the Eduard 648564 set is meticulously replicated based on original documentation, with careful attention to proportions and details such as wiring routing, guidance systems, and markings. The photo-etched parts ensure the highest quality of detail finishing.
