Analyst Note
Labels on munition remnants can provide a host of useful data, including the model designation (in this case, “GBU-39/B”), part number (PN; (“70P998100-1003”), National Stock Number (NSN; “1325-01-526-8728”), serial number (SN; illegible), and Department of Defense Identification Code (DODIC; “EC53”). These codes, and others like them, can often be searched for in databases or provided to technical specialists for further interpretation. (ARES)

“Where the body of the GBU-39 survives a strike intact (i.e., in cases where the munition fails to function) it may feature a variety of diagnostic markings… Markings will sometimes include a data label with a clear designation (GBU-39/B) and unique serial number, as well as other information such as the National Stock Number (NSN; 1325-01-526-8728) and Department of Defense Identification Code (DODIC; EC53).”
