The RESKIT RS32-0464 set is a highly realistic 1/32 scale modeling accessory designed for the most demanding aircraft modelers. The set includes two GBU-31 (V) 2/B bombs with authentic thermal protection, accurately reproduced using modern 3D printing technology. The model is dedicated to the United States Navy and is a perfect addition to modern era US Navy carrier aircraft dioramas.

History and Usage

The GBU-31 (V) 2/B bombs are a version of the well-known JDAM (Joint Direct Attack Munition) family, upgraded with a GPS/INS guidance system allowing for precise long-range strikes. The (V) 2/B variant is equipped with a thermal layer, protecting against the high temperatures found on aircraft carrier decks. This is crucial for extending the lifespan of the ordnance and ensuring safe handling. The GBU-31 entered service with the US Navy in the early 21st century and have been in heavy use ever since, including during military operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and in current conflicts.
