Every war, so this 1 about Ukraine is no exception, it's a race of technology and flexibility in the production capacity of the arms industry, of the war states. method rivalry is simply a kind of sineloid, the advantage of 1 or the another side of the war. Sinusoid on the time illustration can besides be shown the effectiveness of utilizing Russian bomb aviation.
As we remember, Russian bombings entered the war for Ukraine without having bombs gliding with a satellite mark correction, i.e. effectors allowing cheaply and massively to harm targets outside the scope of OPL funds. The guided rockets, given the tiny amount and the advanced cost of production, did not solve the problem.
These deficiencies caused severe losses to Russian bombers in 2022 and de facto withdrew it from the active activities of most of the year 2023.
It was only at the end of 2023 that the Russian arms manufacture dealt with the problem , rather specifically , with the typical Russian/ russian war improvised technical-cost simplicity . Mass deliveries of UMPK modules were started (universal module of payment and correction of cell ros. Universal Module of Fasting and Satellite nonsubjective Correction).
Russian bombers returned to the front, and it "brought" the successes of the Russian army in the 2024 offensive series. It was the FABs from UMPK that played a immense function in the fighting for cities for fortresses: Awdieevka Ugledar and successes in Kurachowe and Pokrowska direction.
Nothing lasts forever.
In January/ February 2025, Ukrainian propaganda drove off the pieremogia, and our media reported: “Russian magic weapons do not work” . Ukrainian engineers in cooperation with NATO designers developed , and the manufacture implemented large-scale production of electronic combat systems capable of disrupting the signal of targeting Russian bombs with the UMPK module, causing the deviation of bombs from the mark by about 100-250 meters.
The Russian army seemed to have lost the “key of its offensive successes”. Until then.
Currently, in mid-April 2025, news is coming from the front that fresh UMPK modules for FAB-500M62 PD bombs (PD bombs have an extended range) have hit airports. The accuracy and focus of Russian aerial bombs (films 3-5) increased dramatically. The Russians have developed fresh frequencies that Ukrainians cannot disrupt.
We see that the full volley that the Su-34 bomber drops (photo 1 and video 1), i.e. 4 FAB-500 bombs lie in the target, and the spread can be estimated at about 50m.
Remember the improvised FAB glider bombs with the UMPK module, are not a senso strict precision weapon.
It is simply a war improvisation, consisting of attaching to classical russian bombs of 250 kg to 3000 kg, a module with folding wings, allowing bombs to glide and electronics to correct satellite mark based on Russian GLONASS navigation system. So the spread of 4 bombs half a ton each with a spread of 50 meters is nothing, as this guarantees 100% demolition of the target.
