Just curious, technically is it possible to equip NEB-84 bunker buster with AASM Hammer kit and launch it from Rafale?

In theory, why not? NEB is based on MK-84 so it could be used. although winged guidance kit would be more cost efficient I think.

There was a post here, apparently winged kit not suitable for bunker buster as they need to hit fast and gliding decrease the speed.

I stand corrected then, an active propulsion system would work better.

How about making it detach after a certain point then? Launch it with the wings, at a distance that it can drop by itself to the target, wings detach and let gravity do its thing? Targeting solutions like GPS maybe could be used to program the kit.
