U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Marcus Nickerson, 378th Expeditionary Maintenance Squadron production NCOIC, explains to host nation partners how the tail of a guided bomb unit - 31v3 joint direct attack munition (GBU-31v3 JDAM) works during an ammunition build in a U.S. Central Command area of responsibility, Feb. 6, 2025. The addition of a tail section that contains an inertial navigation system and a global positioning system guidance control unit improves the accuracy of unguided, general purpose bombs in any weather condition.
