What laser guided bomb uses either the MK-82 or BLU-111 bomb body?

• A. GBU-10
• B. GBU-12
• C. GBU-24
• D. GBU-38

Answer: (B)

Laser-guided bombs are tied to a specific bomb body weight class. The 500-pound class uses the Mk-82 bomb body or its BLU-111 version. The GBU-12 is the laser-guided variant built exactly on that 500-pound Mk-82/BLU-111 body (the Paveway II family). The other options correspond to different weight classes and bomb bodies (larger 1000-pound or 2000-pound bodies), so they don’t fit the requirement of using either Mk-82 or BLU-111. That match makes the GBU-12 the correct choice.
