General Atomics has begun a series of flight tests to clear the use of the JDAM, Hellfire and Small Diameter Bomb on it's Predator MQ-9B UAV, following the succesful completion of drop tests of the 230kg GBU-12 Paveway II laser guided bomb at the China Lake Naval Air Weapons test site in California. The GBU-12 was interfaced with the UAV using an adapted version of the BRU-15A bomb rack used on the LM P-3C Orion.
