There have been reports of them being used already by RAF and USAF ac enforcing the no-fly zones over Iraq (now extended to cover the entire country!), to take out radar sites and the like where there was a risk of collateral damage.

Half a ton of precision-guided concrete going at close to Mach 1 makes a fair mess of sensitive electronic gear!
