Introduction

The CBU-100 Rockeye Cluster Bomb is a highly versatile and effective air-launched weapon designed for anti-tank operations and area suppression. Fielded in 1968, it has a distinguished operational history, proving its value in conflicts such as the Gulf War, where it was extensively deployed against armored vehicles, artillery, and personnel targets.

Operational Effectiveness
The Rockeye excels in delivering concentrated firepower against armored targets and fortified areas. Each bomblet generates a shaped-charge explosion of up to 250,000 psi (1.7 GPa), ensuring lethal penetration and damage. Its ability to saturate an area with high-impact submunitions makes it ideal for suppressing enemy positions and neutralizing advancing forces.

Combat Proven
The CBU-100 demonstrated its strategic value during Operation Desert Storm, with over 27,000 units deployed. Notably, the U.S. Marines employed it extensively, leveraging its anti-armor and area-denial capabilities. Despite its devastating power, safety protocols ensure secure handling, with a documented "cook-off" time of 1 minute and 13 seconds under fire conditions.
