United States | Composite Bomb Bodies

Product Name: Composite Bomb Bodies


Manufacturer Name: L3Harris Technologies


Product Description: The Composite Bomb Bodies, including the GBU-39A/B Focused Lethality Munition (FLM) and BLU-129/B, are advanced munitions designed to provide precise, low-collateral damage solutions in complex operational environments. Developed by L3Harris in collaboration with the U.S. Air Force and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, these bomb bodies utilize carbon-fiber-wound construction to enhance performance while minimizing risk to surrounding areas. The FLM variant features a modified casing and internal fill for more devastating effects within a smaller, confined volume, while the BLU-129/B disintegrates upon impact, reducing collateral damage and enabling its use in close proximity to friendly forces. L3Harris continues to innovate in composite casing technology, ensuring that these munitions meet the evolving needs of modern military operations.
