Precision-guided glide bomb
The H-2 SOW (Stand-Off Weapon) is a precision-guided glide bomb manufactured by NESCOM and deployed by the Pakistan Air Force , capable of striking targets at stand-off range. It has a terminal guidance system based on an infra-red imaging seeker which identifies the target during the final stage of flight. Designed to hit targets out to 60 km, the bomb may be able to evade radar.[2]
According to a Pakistani source, the H-2 is a lighter version of the H-4 SOW . The H-4 is reported by the Pakistani press to have been created by Pakistan's National Engineering and Scientific Commission (NESCOM) , working in collaboration with the Pakistan Missile Organisation and Air Weapons Complex in Pakistan.
Operational history [ edit ]
The H-2 is stated to have entered service with the Pakistan Air Force in 2003.
A television-guided version of the H-2 was launched at a mock target from a distance of 60 km by Mirage III /5 fighters of the Pakistan Air Force during a firepower demonstration on 6 April 2010, marking the first phase of the Pakistan Air Force exercise High Mark 2010.[3] [4] [5] [6]
