This video of Pakistan testing it's Range Extension Kit Bomb may have been posted before but what caught my eye was the attitude of the weapon at 0.16. After a level flight, it seems to go into a dive like a cruise missile. Thus it's obvious it's a smart weapon but what technology does it incorporates, INS or GPS.

No reason for it not to have both. It's INS might not be as accurate as a submarine's but it would be dumb not to have a cheap one as backup.

Both. These days, you won't find many SOWs that are strictly INS, they're usually GPS+INS.
