Cluster Bomb Unit (CBU) MK-20 Rockeye bomb - currently in use by PAF. The MK-20 Rockeye is a free-fall, unguided cluster weapon designed to kill tanks and armored vehicles. The system consists of a clamshell dispenser, a mechanical MK-339 timed fuze, and 247 dual-purpose armor-piercing shaped-charge bomblets. CBU MK-20 is proven effective weapon against armor, artillery, and antipersonnel targets. This Antipersonnel bomb contains ball-type submunitions which are very small and are delivered on known concentrations of enemy personnel, scattered across an area. Like a land mine, it will not blow up until pressure is put on it.
