Flopped, or like this guy says, a long way away.

But a lot of research and development is needed before the first weapon fires a smart bullet. "The technology is not yet fully proven," says Fred Davis, who heads the flight vehicles branch at the US Air Force's Wright Laboratory in Florida, which funded Barrett's work. But Davis believes that smart bullets are a practical possibility, although he predicts they are 15 years away. He says that his laboratory has already developed scaled down, cheaper versions of the smart bombs that were so successful during the Gulf War.
