bro what are the advantages other than range and being more stealth?
How about if supported with a turbofan engine, 1000-2000 km range?

Sounds good but I can't get the point how it can be used as rocket fuel .Catalytic hydrolysis of hydrazine borane for chemical hydrogen storage: Highly efficient and fast hydrogen generation system at room temperature - 29 December 2010
why should jet engine make it more detectable in radar? i think no connection there.. but it an be detected with thermal camera..How about if supported with a turbofan engine, 1000-2000 km range?
It won’t be stealth. In fact it will be more detectable by radars due to its jet engine. But the standard jdam is 25000 dollars. Winged version is a little more expensive at around 45000 dollars. Probably Engined version will be well in excess of couple of hundred thousand dollars. But still much cheaper than a million dollar cruise missile.
Powered JDAM: Boeing’s New Alternative to Cruise Missiles | Air & Space Forces Magazine
Boeing is developing a long-range version of its Joint Direct Attack Munition called the Powered JDAM, adding an engine to extend its range by 20 times over the conventional glide version of the weapon.
Speed would also be higher with an engine which leaves a smaller reaction time.I think these two features are enough to make a bomb more agile and dangeroua bro
Jet engine itself does not make it more detectable to radars. But due to its higher speeds, it would make the “missile” more visible to radars, and it would be seen as a cruise missile rather than a slow gliding bomb. I should have made it clearer.why should jet engine make it more detectable in radar? i think no connection there.. but it an be detected with thermal camera..
if you put a jet engine, it become a cruise missiles.. i would rather make a new design that sticking to old huge bomb.
if USA makes it doesnt mean its a good idea, sometimes they make it to get the project and got an excuse why it was choosen.. US bribery
At subsonic speeds coming from 1000km away it would take 50 minutes also at high altitude, the speed advantage would be nullified I am afraid.
Save some fuel for the terminal stage and you will be good. Unless you will jettison the engine or you can't ration the fuel that is. A small missile won't be detected from that far away by a radar, and speeding up when it gets closer to detecting range or maneuvering to get under the radar and speeding to get to the target fast can give some advantage.
A 2000lb powered jdam is as big if not bigger than a JASM cruise missile. ( jdam without engine is 4m long. jASM is 4.5m long.) look at the size and length of the powered jdam’s engine compartment.
Entire point of LGK -HGK (ER) as you said.
What dose that suppose to mean ?
i guess the difference would be they will go terrain hugging mode to hide itself from enemy radars, but these will be cheap version of it.. mostly fly as high as possible with low power jet engine so hit as far as possible.. also, not all countries able to defend itself from these missiles, look at last 3 war, Syria, Libya, Karabagh, all of these wouldnt be able to shoot down a KGK, so it would be heaper and more targets...
