MK.82 bombs, as part of the Mark 80 series of general-purpose unguided bombs, are among the most commonly used armaments by the United States Air Force and its allies. The version with Snakeye fins was developed for low-altitude bombing, employing special tail fins that deploy after bomb release, significantly slowing its descent and reducing the risk of damage to the aircraft from its own blast wave. Thermally protected variants were widely used during military operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and many others.
