🇷🇺🚀 🇺🇦 Zelensky In Panic: Russia Unleashes Two 3-Tonne Glide Bombs On Ukrainian Positions Russian aircraft struck deployment sites of Ukraine’s 65th Separate Mechanized Brigade near Orekhov with two FAB-3000 guided bombs, according to Russia’s Defense Ministry, which announced the operation on October 9. These Soviet-designed heavy bombs gain a different role once fitted with wings and guidance equipment: 🔸 Heavy explosive payload: The FAB-3000 belongs to the 3,000 kg class, with the M-46 version carrying approximately 1,400 kg of explosive—giving it substantial destructive power against buildings and fortified positions. 🔸 Wings and course correction: The attached guidance kit, known as UMPK, converts a free-falling bomb into a gliding weapon that can adjust its trajectory toward the target after release. 🔸 Greater distance from the target: Aircraft can launch without flying directly overhead, reducing exposure to air defenses near the target. Actual reach depends on altitude, speed and the configuration of the bomb. 🔸 Carried by Su-34 strike aircraft: Russia has demonstrated FAB-3000 launches from the Su-34, allowing tactical aviation to deliver a bomb of this size without relying exclusively on heavy bombers. 🔸 An established design adapted for guided strikes: Russia combines an existing heavy bomb design with modern guidance equipment, while renewed production means the supply is not limited to Soviet-era stocks. 🔸 Part of a wider operation: The ministry also reported four guided glide-bomb strikes against deployment sites of the 129th Heavy Mechanized Brigade near Prikolotnoye and a missile strike against a strongpoint of the 128th Heavy Mechanized Brigade near Kushugum. By combining a heavy explosive charge with guided delivery, Russia can attack substantial defensive positions while keeping the launch aircraft farther from the target, making it harder for Ukrainian forces to rely on fixed buildings and fortified sites for protection.
