The Paveway series of Laser Guided Bombs includes:

  • GBU-10 Paveway IIMk 84 2000 lb (907 kg) bomb
  • GBU-12 Paveway IIMk 82 500 lb (227 kg) bomb
  • GBU-16 Paveway IIMk 83 1000 lb (454 kg) bomb
  • GBU-22 Paveway III – Mk 82 500 lb (227 kg) bomb. Developed at the same time as GBU-24, with some limited export success, but was not adopted by USA as it was felt to be too small of a warhead for the desired effects at the time.
  • GBU-24 Paveway IIIMk 84/BLU-109 2000 lb (907 kg) class bomb
  • GBU-27 Paveway IIIBLU-109 2000 lb (907 kg) bomb with penetration warhead, specially designed for F-117 because the large fins of GBU-24 do not fit into the bomb bay of F-117.
  • GBU-28 Paveway III – During the Gulf War, the deepest and most hardened Iraqi bunkers could not be defeated by the BLU-109/B penetrator warhead, so a much more powerful "bunker buster" GBU-28 was developed. The latest warhead used in the GBU-28/B series is the BLU-122/B, a development of earlier BLU-113 on early GBU-28s.
  • Paveway IV – 500 lb (227 kg) bomb
