نظرة عامة على النظام
Morocco equips its F-16 fleet with Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) kits converting unguided Mk 82 bombs into GPS/INS precision-guided munitions. The GBU-38 (250 lb Mk 82 + JDAM tail kit) provides accurate all-weather strike capability at relatively low cost. JDAM transforms dumb bombs into precision weapons capable of hitting within 5 metres circular error probable from standoff release altitudes. Morocco uses JDAM for ground attack, infrastructure targeting, and close air support missions.

Sensor suite integration on this hull class gives it anti-submarine capability well above its tonnage class.
