The West just gave an incredible Deal to Argentina recently for their F-16 Aircraft, giving them such a low Price for an Aircraft loaded with great Weapons and Equipment. The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) should demand to get the same Deal, if not more, especially as it has been moving towards an Alliance to them more under this Administration of Bong Bong Marcos (BBM).

Ukraine Faces Threat of Russian Guided Aerial Bombs - Technology Org

Ukraine Faces Threat of Russian Guided Aerial Bombs - Technology Org

Russia is using guided aerial bombs KAB against Ukraine in huge numbers. These bombs are relatively new in service with the Russian Army, but the Air Force of Ukraine believes that the Russian KABs are a huge threat to the defenders of the country. Such bombs and the KAB-500 and its variants can destroy large objects deep in the Ukrainian positions and no air defense system can counter them reliably.

The representative of the Air Force of Ukraine, Yuriy Ihnat, said that the Russian Army is attacking the Ukrainian positions with KAB guided bombs. Bombs like the KAB-500 have the GLONASS navigation system and can be dropped by a wide variety of Russian planes, from the MiG-35 to the Su-24.

Once dropped, they glide towards the pre-programmed target, delivering a devastating blow to military positions, defense facilities, and even just seaport infrastructure.

The KAB-500 bomb was developed at the beginning of this century. In 2003, the KAB-500S-E was already being demonstrated at various military aviation events in Russia.

These bombs were put into service only a few years ago, but the Russians already have quite a few of them. KAB-500S-E bombs were actively used against targets in Syria. Their main task is the destruction of industrial facilities, ship harbours, warehouses and fortifications.

“They made something like the Western JDAM out of the FAB-500 bomb. They attached wings to it and a control unit. The guided aerial bomb flies approximately 70 kilometers to the target,” said Ihnat. According to him, these bombs were first used in Ukraine against targets in the Kherson region.

The range of the KAB-500 bomb actually depends on launch altitude and speed. In any case, this is a 560 kg bomb with a 195 kg warhead, capable of hitting a target with a precision of 7-12 meters. Ihnat hinted that Russia could use up to 100 such bombs a day. Such a massive attack would be difficult to organize since small fighter jets typically carry just a couple of bombs of this weight.

Ihnat underlined that KAB attacks are a “serious threat” to Ukraine. He also added that the only way to stop them is to destroy the Su-35 and Su-34 planes. It would not be easy to do this, because these bombs are dropped without their carriers flying into the air defense zone of Ukraine.

“They should be countered with long-range Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems or F-16s with missiles capable of reaching the Russian Sukhois. We need to at least scare them away from our borders,” said Juriy Ihnat.

There are no air-defense systems that can reliably deal with gliding aerial bombs. And, as you might imagine, a warhead of nearly 200 kg does a lot of damage. Hopefully, Ukraine can find a way to deal with the planes that are coming close to its controlled borders.

Revolutionizing Ukraine's Air Power: Retrofitting Soviet Jets with Weste...

i'm so confused

[triviallytrue]

man this is crazy, this guy isn't a weapons expert and does not describe himself as such, he's just a US army vet who happens to be sympathetic to the Palestinian cause (which i salute him for but it doesn't make his opinion any more relevant here)

like to give an obvious example of this guy not really knowing what he's talking about:

the main piece of evidence people talk about with this anyway is one he doesn't even touch, which is that the pictures of the blast zone/crater show much less damage than you'd expect from Israeli munitions

i also find zvaig's whole "well obviously you can't trust any of the western-funded fact checkers so instead you should trust this random guy" shtick kind of annoying since a lot of these western funded fact checkers are pretty upfront about the fact that they think the IDF is actively committing war crimes, just not this particular war crime of hitting this specific hospital. here's the guy who put together the first coherent analysis of the blast:

the smoking gun here would be analysis of munitions fragments, but shockingly, none of those can be found. maybe an investigation a year from now will turn up something more conclusive but i would not hold my breath

anyway. i'm sick of talking about this because it's a distraction from the various horrible things Israel is actually doing (they just bombed a refugee camp) but it would be nice if people were a little less credulous and accepted the idea that Hamas might lie about things too every now and then

Fact Checking the """fact checkers""" (who all just happen receive extensive western funding but I'm sure it's fine) who have convinced many "rational" people online that this story is somehow unclear

Since the start of this most recent, brutal war on Gaza, the US has been a key supplier of the weapons and parts the IOF relies on to bombard Gaza indiscriminately. Air strikes are carried out with US-made JDAMs and bombs, artillery strikes with US-made shells, and even just the maintenance of Israel’s war machines relies heavily on US aid. The ongoing genocide would not be possible without the ongoing, unwavering support of American presidential administrations from both parties, unfortunately paid for with our tax dollars.

These weapons have been used to terrorize, brutalize, and bombard Gaza’s people now for nearly two years, and I know it can feel hopeless thinking about the scale of the resources being thrown at this genocide, and infuriating to think those resources are being paid for with money you absolutely did not want to be used for this. Luckily, there are ways you can help, and families who could use money if you want what you earn to go towards people deserving of it, instead of a colonial war machine. Families like Ghada @ghadaanqar9’s, who are so close to their goal (less than a thousand dollars away). Sending just a little bit can help mitigate the harm being done to her and her family, good, innocent people who have just as much a right to life as me and you. I’ve made a few posts now for Ghada, and every time I speak with her she remains the kindest, most patient person I’ve known, and I cannot tell you how happy I would be knowing that her campaign finally reached its goal. Our government has decided that spending our tax dollars on genocide is in its interest, so consider alleviating just a little bit of that harm by sending a donation to someone so much more worthy of our support.

The United States is preparing to send more bombs and other weapons to Israel even as it pushes for a ceasefire in the war on Gaza and has said it opposes Tel Aviv’s plans for a ground invasion in southern Rafah where more than half the enclave’s displaced population is trapped. The proposed arms delivery includes about a thousand each of MK-82 500-pound (227kg) bombs and KMU-572 Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAMs) that turn unguided munitions into precision-guided bombs, The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday, citing unnamed US officials. The US is further considering sending FMU-139 bomb fuses, with the total shipment estimated to be worth tens of millions of dollars, which will be paid from US military aid to Israel. The report cited an assessment of the proposed arms transfer drafted by the US embassy in Jerusalem as saying the Israeli government has requested “rapid acquisition of these items for the defence of Israel against continued and emerging regional threats”. The assessment also dismisses potential human rights concerns, saying “Israel takes effective action to prevent gross violations of human rights and to hold security forces responsible that violate those rights”.
