 The Mk82 is the warhead for the GBU-12 laser-guided bombs and for the GBU-38 JDAM.
+===== Snakeeye =====
+In low-level bombing, it is possible for the delivering aircraft to sustain damage from the blast and fragmentation effects of its own munitions since the aircraft and ordnance arrive at the target almost simultaneously. To address this issue, the standard Mk81 and 82 General-Purpose bombs can be fitted with a special high-drag tail fin unit. In this configuration, it is referred to as the Mk8x Snake Eye. The tail unit has four folded fins that spring open into a cruciform shape when the bomb is released, slowing the bomb by increasing drag, thus allowing the delivery aircraft to safely pass over the target before the bomb hits it.
