They don’t.

Precision bombing is more of a marketing term than a reality for the poor sods on the ground.

Smart bombs taking out the target with surgical precision and a minium of collateral damage is what may be aspired to and what is being sold at home, but in practice there are plenty of orphans and widows and amputees that will tell you that precision bombing is not really al that real.

To be fair aerial bombings have gotten more precise since the days of WWII, but it is not at the point yet where it claims to be.
