Why Russia’s Glide Bombs are Almost Impossible for Ukraine to Stop | War on Tape | Daily Mail
Glide bombs are the latest terrifying weapon Russia is using in its war on Ukraine. By strapping wings and GPS kits to Soviet bombs weighing up to 1.5 tons, Putin’s warplanes are now able to demolish Ukrainian defences and help their troops advance. With the help of air power expert Justin Bronk of the RUSI think-tank, we uncover how these new weapons work, why they are almost impossible for Ukraine to stop, and why - despite that - they probably won’t win the war for Moscow.

@@yosefyonin6824 Small jabs here and there, starting with carefully selected truths to make the rest sound correct. Claiming using the JDAM can help to avoid civilians, while listing Gaza; Russia copied the glide bomb concept after Bakhmut/Artemovsk although it was first proposed in 2003. And then came the "expert". Those Ukrainian air defences that kept RU aviation humble were actually what they inherited from the USSR in huge numbers, the western ones are small in numbers. Russia until the end of 2023 used 7400 cruise missiles and half as many Geraan drones in UA mainly to deplete those air defences. It worked, by now most of them are gone, allowing Russia to switch to shorter range and less expensive weapons, such as glide bombs. Claiming Russians don't care about their own casualties is a constant BS narrative. The decision to withdraw from Avdiivka came after most UA troops were already KIA or fled from there. And more, but this should be enough I think.

[@koskok2965]

M-62 means "Model of 1962". It either indicates the year it was designed or the one it entered service. It does NOT mean it was manufactured in 1962. They are still being manufactured today. Even the Wikipedia article on these bombs clearly states that for crying out loud. EDIT: There are tons of other mistakes of varying severity in the video, that need to be addressed. so here we go... The UMPKs are not fitted with "GPS trackers". You can call these electronic modules "satellite navigation modules", "GNSS modules/receivers" and other such terms to indicate they enable the bomb to use satellite navigation. GPS specifically refers to the US satellite navigation system, with its 100% US built, owned and operated satellite constellation. I don't think I need to state why it's a terrible idea to use your enemy's GNSS to guide your own bombs. Russians outfit their UMPKs with GNSS receivers designed to work with their own, domestic system, GLONASS. The kind of missile countermeasure seen dumped in the Su-34 clip at 2:54 is called "chaff" and bares 0 similarity to a flare both in looks and function. Flares are meant to distract missiles using IR seekers, and 99% of such missiles have a very short range ( e.g. MANPADS ). Chaff on the other hand is meant to provide a false target for missiles using active or semi-active radar guidance. It's essentially a puff of metallic confetti that reflects radiowaves extremely well in all directions, hence why it lights up like a Christmas tree on radar. Missiles using radar guidance are usually designed for medium up to extremely long range shots, and as such they are exactly the one single type of threat that these Su-34s flying high and far away from Ukrainian airspace must be aware of and defend against. The UMPK fitted bombs are VERY accurate. They can easily achieve a

These are British propagandists. If they can minimize Russian achievement they will do it. 1) He claims Ukrainians withdrew from Avdeevka with 1500 K.I.A and around 1000 prisoners. Yet he presents it has a retreat 🙄 2) he claims Russia copied the JDAM. How funny. The Russian UPMK doesn't even look like the JDAM stuff 3) as you pointed out he failed to mention that Russia successfully nullified the JDAM with electronic warfare 4) he pretends western EW can stop Russian Fabs, when we actually know from US sources that western EW has hard time jamming Russian Kometa anti jamming modules for Glonass guidance

[@Comm0ut]

Jamming only degrades GPS. Jamming does not affect INS but INS as fitted to supplied JDAM kits is only yields ~30 meter CEP while GPS yields ~5 meter CEP (per public release anyway). Reducing effectiveness is not the same thing as rendering supplied JDAM "useless". In the perpetual electronic race expect both sides to invest in home-on-jam missile systems for SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defensed). Jamming and countermeasures constantly evolve. Glavset and friends naturally prefer absolutist assertions which make better propaganda given their non-technical audience. Tabloid media in the West are equally silly but the simple masses demand simple assertions or their eyes glaze over.

Russia has lost over 50,000 military and another 50,000 mercenaries and is very far from taking even 1/4 of Ukraine.

As a British citizen, who has been well aware of the facts leading up to this conflict. I've got to say through British politicians & British media. I feel something I never ever dreamt would be the case. I'm embarrassed about being a British citizen today. After over 5 decades of being as proud as anyone of being British. Today my Government are an embarrassment in a world stage. The single reason my government are getting away with their lies, propaganda & incompetence is the British media. You see the ruling classes have had a hatred if Russia, that the vast majority if the population do not understand & have no idea why they feel this way. Despite having anti Russian lies, half truths & propaganda rammed down our throats for decades. Accusations never ever provided with evidence are the biggest favourite if these people. Their friends in British mexia only too willing to push these accusations. Repeating them any amount of times then expanding on these stories. The problem is not everyone is a brain dead sheep. Blindly following their BS & treating it as gospel truth. I mean why would any British politician change a habit of a lifetime & actually speak the truth? Why would any British media platform give the citizens if Britain real facts for change? All anyone has to do is ask themselves, What has Russia done to Britain & the British people, for the rulers of this country to hate them so much? As I can state a few things the British leadership have done against the Russians. That could be seen as actual acts of war in international law. I'd love to know when Ukraine became an Allie of Britain also. Was it after the democratically voted for President of Ukraine was removed by the US lead coup in 2014? After installing the Western puppet. Why hasn't British media asked the question if the British gov has audited any of the billions in aid given to Ukraine. As not my words but it's even recorded in the UN. Ukraine is the most corrupt country in Europe & one of the most corrupt in the world. You'd expect a rational government to want to know & get the receipts for British tax payers money given to such a regime. Saying that we have a current leader, who one day approx 10 days ago was stating policies how his gov were going to target the most vulnerable in British society over their benefits. These people don't get enough to live on, but an easy target for these rulers of ours. Then 3 days after that the very same ruler in Britain had a press conference, bragging about how many more billions of our tax payers money he was giving to Ukraine unaudited like he was some type if hero. Talk about being totally detached from reality, doesn't come close. These rulers of ours today are a national embarrassment if not much worse. I could state facts that would be controversial, I could also show the evidence of those facts. But we're not allowed to do that in my country today. Without receiving some punishment or the other. This is why today sadly I'm embarrassed about being British.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 *🛫 Overview of Russian Glide Bomb Weapons* - Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber prepares to deploy 4 Glide bombs, known as universal planning and correction module (UPKM) weapons. - These bombs canigh up to 1.5 tons, fly up to 40 km, and cause extensive damage to buildings and bunkers. - The Glide bomb technology combines old FAB-500 bombs with new GPS-guided kits, allowing the bombs to glide to their targets. 01:32 *🔙 History of Glide Bomb Development* - Glide bomb technology dates back to World War II, with the Nazi-developed Fritz X being one of the first guided bomb systems. - Glide bombs found new uses in attacking heavily defended ground targets, with the US-developed JDAM being a modern example. - Glide bombs have been used in various conflicts, including Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and by Israel against Hamas in Gaza. 05:32 *🇺🇦 Ukraine's Use of Glide Bombs* - In late 2022, Ukraine received a version of the JDAM called the JDAM-ER, with extended range capabilities. - The JDAM-ER proved effective in destroying hardened targets like bunkers and buildings during the Battle of Bakhmut. - Russia is now copying the Glide bomb tactic, using its own versions to support its troops' advances in Ukraine. 06:28 *🔍 Challenges in Stopping Glide Bombs* - Ukraine has had some success in ambushing Glide bomb attacks with Patriot missile launchers, but this is a risky and unsustainable strategy. - Operational-level electronic warfare to degrade the GPS and guidance signals of the Glide bombs could be a more effective approach. - The decisive factor in the war may ultimately come down to Ukraine's ability to mobilize and train enough forces, as well as its access to sufficient artillery ammunition.

This war in Ukraine is not a war of tricks, but a war of attrition, in a real war, the US tricks don't work, none of it. This might also explain the huge shortfall of US weapons on hand. That is because, a small amount of super weapons, with tricks, always did the trick, and it was supposed to do the trick, again, on Russia, in Ukraine. Before this, it was enough, there was never a need for huge stockpiles of US weapons. Well, that's just too bad, Russia and its large stockpiles of weapons has already won this war, and The US is once again in a defeatist position, yet, in stubbornness and shame, it's refusing to concede defeat.

British strategists devised "Operation Unthinkable," an apt name for what would have been World War III. This document is the property of His Majesty’s Government. The war with the Soviet Union was to begin on 1 July 1945. This operation began in April 1945, when the war was not over, but the outcome was clear. The possible distribution of forces in the world after the victory over Germany, already at that time did not please the United Kingdom and the USA, so the «Unthinkable» was hastily planned. So did the "allies" of Soviet Russia. The document, which is now in the UK National Archives, details all the steps of the operation. Operation Unthinkable (1945) assumed a surprise attack by up divisions forces of the "allies", the "dogface" troops in the area of Dresden, in the middle of Soviet lines. A surprise attack by 47 British and American divisions supported by 10-12 German divisions, which "allies" held as not generated in Schleswig-Holstein and in southern Denmark should support the blow, they were daily trained by the British instructors: prepared for the war against the USSR. The storming of Berlin sobered the British. The conclusion of the Chiefs of Staff of the British troops was clear: the blitzkrieg against the Russians would not work. On this was completed the development of operation «Unthinkable». Meanwhile, while planning a war against the USSR, the pragmatic allies persuade Stalin to help them with the Japanese after defeating Germany. Americans after World War II are almost masters of peace. Not the Soviet Union, which fought fascists for four years, liberated all of Europe, losing more than 20 million people and a quarter of the economy on the front and civilians, but the United States, which once again managed to use the war to their advantage. History is repeating itself... again. "Operation Unthinkable” is ongoing... HISTORIA EST MAGISTRA VITAE - history is the mentor of life (Cicero). History is not a teacher, but a overseer : she teaches nothing, but severely punishes ignorance of lessons. (O.V. Klyuchevsky, Russian historian).

These people are paid clowns and trolls for the corrupted military industry in NATO countries. They are still claiming for example that Leopard 2 and M1 Abrams are invincible tanks. And that Russian military industry can now extract and reverse engineered top secret tank technologies from this 50 years old Cold War metal junkyard. It's incredible the amount of lies and stupidity these people are capable of selling to naive people around the world.

[@TennesseeHomesteadUSA]

[@Allahuma.sali.ala.muhammad.]

Not many jdams, ukraine has no air superiority, their airforce got degraded, and Russia has lots of sam which stops Ukrainian jets to come close enough to drop bombs.

[@user-yo9pv1ni6t]

FABs Perfect??? You must be joking,,, those things land anywhere, accuracy is very poor. FABs are used for genocide.

Probably cause Russia has more extensive electronic warfare compared with Ukraine although the french aasm seems to still work well

[@koskok2965]

Simple. Western EW systems are garbage and available only in very small numbers to the AFU. In stark contrast, the Russian Armed Forces arguably field the most advanced EW systems worldwide, and at an extremely large scale. Virtually every single Russian HVT, such as command centers, naval bases, airfields, significant bridges, etc are all protected by EW.

@@SHANindahouse You're wrong on both accounts. GPS simply stands for global positioning system and that's exactly what Russia is using. The 25 year old US JDAM kits are also cheap glide kits that are strapped to dumb bombs. Look it up.

@@mikegoodie7905 GPS is not so accurate like Glonas or Chinese beidow. The main difference is that Glonas satellites is synhronized with rotation of the earth. So it use Glonas to be accurate. And price of russian glide bombs are much cheaper, because they was manufactured as dumb bobms, us glide bombs are made like glide bombs from factory.

[@igorvasin6960]

this expert told the truth half of the story, half made it up to please people who believe that the Ukrainian fascists of the Kyiv regime are very successful. Someone tell him that gliding bombs began to be used precisely because missiles were able to destroy most of the air defense from the Patriots and S-300. and now these systems are in short supply and are used to cover objects away from the front. and the Su-34 can fly up to distances sufficient for a drop. Only from the beginning of 2024 there is a video recording the destruction of 40 Ukrainian air defense installations and 20 Ukrainian radar installations. Which two air defense systems out of these forty did the expert remember? The funny thing is that he said that the Russians would not mind if a bomb fell on their cities because the engine was not turned on, this is said by a person from a country that demands that Ukraine launch missiles at civilian targets in Russia! everyone knows that Ukraine is faced with the ineffectiveness of using weapons against military targets and countries donating weapons have called for using them against the civilian population of Russia.

[@1maico1]

Patriots have always been in short supply. There are only a few of them and one has been destroyed when it was in a convoy. The Russians have been remarkably ineffective in targeting Ukrainian air defences in the last 2 years. Things like the s-300 have been used up. The fascists are in Moscow not Kyiv. In the 2019 presidential and Parliamentary elections SN was by far the most popular party. A centrist, pro-European alliance. The Russian march on the capital last February included the apparatus of an occupation force to dismember the country. The UN agreed. Resolution ES‑11/4 called on Russia to "immediately, completely and unconditionally withdraw" from Ukraine as it is violating its territorial integrity and sovereignty. The resolution passed with 143 countries in favor, 35 abstaining, and only 5 against(Belarus, North Korea, Nicaragua, Syria, and the Russian Federation)

"It is less sophisticated then JDAM" If it has the same range and accuracy, while been simpler and cheaper, that's called BETTER ENGINEERED, not less sophisticated Mikhail Kalashnikov said it best: "Any fool can make a complex thing. It takes true engineer to make effective thing simple"

[@peoplez129]

And just as important, Russia's stuff is generally built to last. I bet you could lock them in a storage room for 50 years and they'd still work fine. Meanwhile, the US stuff will need rigorous maintenance. Even the MOABS that were used needed to be nearly rebuilt after something like 10 years, and partially because of fears of premature detonation in storage. If you look at old soviet missile guidance systems, they're almost artfully engineered, but they're built sturdy and with parts that can be easily sourced. But probably most importantly, Russia has always designed its hardware for the full rigors of a chaotic full scale war like WW2. Their jets can land and take off almost anywhere, even with rubble all around. Meanwhile if a US jet tries to land or takeoff on any runway that hasn't been extensively swept and polished, rocks are going to destroy the engine. I'd say in a pinch they'd risk it, but in general, if a runway is damaged, basically every plane there would be grounded until it could be fixed, and runways don't get fixed overnight, that stuff takes a LONG time. Granted again, I think they could make some shortcuts to get a runway operational in a pinch, but it could be dangerous and probably have issues with sturdiness, meaning you really want to do it the hard long way, not the easy way, because if you're kicking up gouges out of the patches every X number of takeoffs or landings, you've got a serious continuing problem.

You would think considering a raspberry pi and a servo could do this, that the bomb would only go live when the GPS coordinates are within 500m of the targeted area. I assume the bombs are not live while in flight so the modification to each bomb would be relatively trivial to decouple the trigger from launching the bomb and let a servo take that roll.
