The Russian-Ukraine conflict has become a proving ground for deadly weaponry, where glide bombs have emerged as potentially decisive tools. Originally basic Soviet-era dumb bombs, such as the FAB series, have been transformed into smart munitions through the addition of satellite guidance kits. This upgrade has significantly enhanced their effectiveness, enabling Russia to wield them with devastating impact in recent engagements.

Russia's relentless deployment of these bombs, including the formidable FAB-1500 and FAB-3000 variants, has exacted a heavy toll on Ukraine's frontline troops and urban centers like Avdiivka. The city's fall in February underscored the potency of these weapons, as their precision strikes demolished buildings and fortified positions, marking significant strategic gains for Russia in the region.

The Ukrainian military, meanwhile, remains unable to effectively counter these advanced glide bombs. While lighter versions like the FAB-250 and FAB-500 are already wreaking havoc, the introduction of larger and more destructive variants raises critical questions about Russia's military strategy and objectives in the conflict.

    I saw in the main stream media Russia lost the war two months into it. Maybe I'm in a parallel universe.

    Considering whose agenda the author is working on, I want to clarify. FABs are used exclusively in combat zones, in populated areas that, in fact, are no longer populated. The frame at 1:11 has nothing to do with the theme of the video.

  • @user-vf6cp4hu7z
    They know very well that Ukraine lost the war a long time ago. I'm wondering why they keep sending military aid to Ukraine. Is it to remove the country from the map?
