The Stand-off Dispenser (SOD) is a special weapon of the Ace Combat series. Numerous bomblets are dispersed from a guided dispenser that flies over a locked-on target. Effective against targets along a straight line. Stand-off Dispenser are cruise missiles or glide bombs which may be launched at a distance sufficient to allow attacking personnel to evade defensive fire from the target area. Typically, they are used against land and sea-based targets in an offensive operation. The name is derived from their ability to engage the target while standing off outside the range at which the defenders are likely to engage the attacker.

"An air-to-ground weapon that launches explosive projectiles.
The projectiles launch towards the locked on target, and then dispenses a large number of small bombs above the target, across a wide area.
In addition to a long effective range, it also offers excellent precision for wide area attacks making it very easy to use."

Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation

"The SOD is capable of adjusting its flight while releasing numerous bomblets along its trajectory. Its high degree of accuracy makes it one of the easiest wide-blast radius type bombs to use. GPS and other navigational equipment allow the SOD to automatically home in on a ground target."
