Analyst Note
This image shows a wing fragment from a SPICE-1000 bomb guidance kit. While there are no remnants of the bomb body visible, it can be determined that a MK 83-series 1,000-pound bomb or similar was used, as MK-83 series bombs are paired with the SPICE-1000 bomb guidance kit to form a complete munition.

“The SPICE kits include electro-optical (EO) guidance with terrain matching, as well as GPS and INS. … The SPICE 1000 is fitted to 1,000-pound bombs, such as the MK 83 or MPR 1000, and features deployable wings, similar to those of the JDAM-ER.”
