Summary edit

Description
English: The Arabian Gulf (Mar. 20, 2003) -- Aviation ordnancemen relocate 2,000-lb. GBU-31 Joint Defense Attack Munitions (JDAMs) for uploading to aircraft aboard USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63). JDAMs are guidance kits that convert existing unguided bombs into precision-guided "smart" munitions. The tail section contains an inertial navigational system (INS) and a global positioning system (GPS). A JDAM improves the accuracy of unguided bombs in any weather condition. Kitty Hawk is operating with coalition forces in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, the multi-national coalition effort to liberate the Iraqi people, eliminate Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction, and end the regime of Saddam Hussein.
