VB-3 Razon

The VB-3 Razon was a high-angle freefall guided bomb developed by the United States Army Air Force during the 1940s. Razon (from "range and azimuth only") was a standard AN-M65 1,000-pound general-purpose bomb, the same basic ordnance unit used for its Azimuth-Only guided predecessor, the VB-1 Azon guided ordnance, with the Razon concept fitted with flight control surfaces that also enabled adjustment in the vertical plane, like the Luftwaffe's heavier Fritz X armored anti-ship guided ordnance.
