JDAM can be launched from up to approximately 15 miles from the target and each is independently targeted. The weapon system allows launch from very low to very high altitude and can be launched in a dive, toss, loft or in straight and level flight with an on-axis or off-axis delivery. JDAM also allows multiple target engagements on a single pass delivery. JDAM provides the user with a variety of targeting schemes, such as preplanned and inflight captive carriage retargeting.

Управляемые авиационные бомбы (УАБ) или Корректируемые авиационные бомбы (КАБ), в англоязычной литературе их называют умные бомбы (англ. smart bomb), один из видов управляемых авиационных средств поражения (УАСП). Представляют собой авиационные бомбы, снабжённые системой управления и наведения.

The GBU-32 gets target information from the aircraft prior to release via a Miltary Standard (Mil Std) 1760 data bus. JDAM can be dropped by an aircraft from up to 15 miles from the target. In addition to its own inertial guidance system, the weapon receives in-flight position updates from the 24-satellite GPS satellite ##### which help guide the bomb to the target. The GPS ##### provides 24-hour navigation information to military and civilian users. The GBU-32's autonomous operation allows the carrying aircraft to release the weapon and leave the area, thus avoiding an enemy's integrated air defense (surface-to-air missiles, antiaircraft artillery ("triple A"), and radars) system, but still delivering the weapon to the target.

Despite these geographically and technologically enabled
benefits, some shortcomings in the Red Flag scenario and their
execution ensure results will never exactly mirror combat conditions. First, real-world intelligence is never perfect. America’s
next test in combat may face tactics or weapons previously unknown
or unimagined. Such surprises inevitably occur in war.
If there is a flaw in the current threat replication, that flaw relies
on the precision of intelligence. Adversary crews strive for
precise replication of tactics but are rarely free to improvise.
...
This could lead to a catastrophic problem where units cannot
improvise in the face of new enemy tactics not predicted by intelligence
sources.

Third, since Red Flag is a training exercise, safety takes
precedence over realism. In most cases, sound tactics equate
to safe execution, and there is no effect on the flow of the mission.
...
The result is often an official
“kill” due to lack of maneuvers when in reality the crew may
have survived the same scenario during combat.

Fourth, the shot-kill criteria used to determine the outcomes
contain known errors that preclude their use as true results.
