Russian Jamming Makes US-made Glide Bombs Ineffective in Ukraine

Russian glide bombs have played a key role in the Russia-Ukraine war, enhancing Russia's air superiority and aiding their territorial gains. Recently, these bombs have garnered attention for their devastating impact, with Russia deploying increasingly larger versions. Initially, in 2023, Russia used FAB-250 glide bombs, but they've since introduced larger ones, including the massive FAB-3000. Instead of creating new bombs, Russia converts old Soviet-era bombs into smart bombs using UMPK kits, which cost about $20,000 each. This approach is cost-effective given Russia's large stockpile of old bombs. With Russian glide bombs causing significant damage, a question arises: does Ukraine have anything similar? __ Sources: Attribution: @SaabGroup
