In an operational first, the Air Force has armed the MQ-9 Reaper with the GPS-guided GBU-38 Joint Direct Attack Munition, or JDAM, bomb.
Airmen from the 432nd Wing/432nd Air Expeditionary Wing at Creech Air Force Base and the 26th Weapons Squadron at Nellis Air Force Base — both in Nevada — worked together to outfit the medium-altitude with the GBU-38, according to a release.
