CBU-100 Cluster Bomb

[1] They deploy 247 Mk 118 Rockeye submunitions, a HEAT bomblet, and weigh 489 lb (222 kg) as an assembled unit.

If the pilot selects the option time and the primary arming wire is not pulled, the fuze will fail to function and be a dud.

To stabilize the weapon after release from the aircraft, a tail cone assembly is attached to the aft end of the cargo section.

Each bomblet weighs 1.32 pounds (600 g) and has a 0.4-pound (180 g) shaped-charge warhead of high explosives, which produces up to 250,000 psi (1.7 GPa) at the point of impact, allowing penetration of approximately 7.5 inches (190 mm) of armor.

During Desert Storm US Marines used the weapon extensively, dropping 15,828 of the 27,987 total Rockeyes against armor, artillery, and personnel targets.
