I just noticed that, after all the talk about them supposedly being included in this package, the JDAM kits aren't listed. I wonder if that ended up delayed as we work on better ways to integrate controls for Ukrainian pilots (or for some other reason).

I think this may be it from the list above

-Precision aerial munitions;

If precision aerial munitions are a type of precision guided munitions then this definition may apply -

Definition from DoD -

The Department of Defense (DOD) defines a precision-
guided munition (PGM) as a “guided weapon intended to
destroy a point target and minimize collateral damage.”
This includes air- and ship-launched missiles, multiple
launched rockets, and guided bombs. PGMs typically use
the global positioning system (GPS), laser guidance, or
inertial navigation systems to improve a weapon’s accuracy
to reportedly less than 3 meters (approximately 10 feet).
