September 25, 1968 – Vietnam: F-100 Super Sabre drops Mk.82 bombs, the bombs descend and explode on the targets in Vietnam.

The MK-82 Snakeye is a low-altitude attack variant of the classic Mark 82 bomb. Its signature feature is the high-drag “Snakeye” fins that deploy right after release, slowing the bomb down and giving the aircraft time to escape the blast. Weighing 500 lb (227 kg) and carrying around 87 kg of high explosive, it’s designed for very low-level strike missions against runways and area targets. | fighteraircraft
