Chinese manufacture BL-755 340kg cluster bomb clone. Q-5s use JH-7 and JH-7A as well. Likely receive in 1990s when relation with UK arms established or when exporting arms to Zimbabwe or Pakistan

I'm not sure these are 340kg weapons. They're called 250s, and look at the image of the Chinese woman next to one: image Compared to a (probably physically larger) British maintainer: image Tough to tell, but I reckon the original is bigger.
