In a recent airstrike in Beirut, an Israeli bomb was captured by an Associated Press photographer as it plummeted towards a building before detonating. The strike occurred 40 minutes after Israel issued warnings to evacuate two buildings in the area, citing their proximity to Hezbollah warehouses and assets. The bomb used in the attack was identified as a 2,000-pound warhead fitted with an Israeli-made guidance kit known as SPICE, designed for precision targeting.
The SPICE guidance system, developed by Israel's Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, allows for accurate targeting day or night, in adverse weather conditions, and even in GPS-jammed areas. The system is known for its high lethality, low collateral damage, and pinpoint accuracy, keeping the attacking aircraft at a safe distance from the target. The bomb can be launched up to 60 kilometers away from its intended destination, making it a formidable weapon in Israel's arsenal.
