Small Diameter Bomb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GBU 39 250 lb Glide Bombs range 70 or more miles, a B2 bomber can carry 212 of them, an F18 hornet 40, F35 more then a dozen.....
I doubt if an anti aircraft missile systems is going to be anything other then a waste of money when you add in Electronic Counter Measure and evasion. radar seeking missiles and glided bombs.

Then you have the GBU 53B On July 17, 2012, the SDB II successfully engaged and hit a moving target during a flight test at the White Sands Missile Range. The bomb was dropped from an F-15E Strike Eagle, then acquired, tracked, and guided itself onto a moving target using its tri-mode seeker, scoring a direct hit.[8]
