Qased (Persian: قاصد, meaning "Messenger") is a 2000-pound (900 kg) Iranian developed smart bomb.

Guidance

Qased is a guided precision weapon, but it is not clear whether it is laser-guided or TV-guided. On August 23, 2007 Press TV reported it as a laser-guided smart bomb,[1] but TV footage of its test-fire suggests it is TV-guided. It is thought to be for use with Iran's F-4 Phantom II fighter jets.[2]
