CBU-98/B

CBU-98/B

The CBU-98/B (also known as a "Direct Airfield Attack Combined Munition" or DAACM) [ [http://www.personal.psu.edu/dob104/aviation/us/bomb.html B - Bombs/Bomb Units ] ] was a planned 385 kg (850 lb) anti-airfield cluster bomb, which consisted of 8 BLU-106/B BKEP (Boosted Kinetic Energy Penetrator) projectiles and 24 British HB876 mines in an SUU-64/B Tactical Munitions Dispenser (TMD). The BLU-106/B was cancelled, and thus the CBU-98/B, was never produced [http://www.designation-systems.net/usmilav/asetds/u-c.html] .
