The short answer is: Laser=moving target in clear weather, GPS= stationary target in cloudy weather. Dual role there for more capable of completing the mission its all in the write up on the AF site.

I'm a bit confused. I've seen inventory figures of anywhere from 100,000 to > 200,000 JDAMs delivered and these were not even current figures.. surely they haven't used that many in the recent conflicts?

I think that might mean delivered as in purchased and shipped from the manufacturer to the USAF/USN, not delivered as in dropped on a target...
