The Enhanced Laser Guided Training Round (ELGTR) is Lockheed Martin's U.S.-made live-fire training round for Paveway II laser-guided bomb employment. The company says it has been deployed since 1992, emulates GBU-10/12/16 tactics, and is compatible with F-16, F/A-18 and AV-8B platforms.
Lockheed Martin says ELGTR is compatible with F-16, F/A-18, AV-8B and other international aircraft platforms.

It is a training round that emulates Paveway II laser-guided bomb employment; I found no combat use because it is designed for training rather than operational attack.
