Need a simple video covering bombs and missiles

I need to acquire very basic knowledge of modern aerial ordnance (bombs and air-launched missiles). Right now I know close to nil. Hopefully something short and simple. Everything I see on YouTube is good but very specialised. Thank you.
 
There are a number of books on Aircraft Ordnance. Janes's is probably the best. Curl up with a copy of Jane's Aircraft Ordnance for about a week. Most of the military videos are geared toward a 16 year-old.

What exactly are you wanting to learn?

Have you really dug into YouTube?

My USAF daughter talks to me about this stuff thinking that I have shotshells and must know all those laser guided things (which is not true at all). So I'd like to be able to stand my ground, a bit.
 
Go to your local library and see if they subscribe to Aviation Week and Space Technology. They have the latest stuff every week.
 
And there is also "NAVAIR 11-140-10-1 Airborne weapons assembly PAVEWAY II" Ed. 2001 available online
