Russia Glide Bombs: Zelensky Says 'we Don't Have Countermeasure'' by Biodun556(op): 2:30pm On Apr 06, 2024

A glide bomb or stand-off bomb is a standoff weapon with flight control surfaces to give it a flatter, gliding flight path than that of a conventional bomb without such surfaces. This allows it to be released at a distance from the target rather than right over it, allowing a successful attack without exposing the launching aircraft to air defenses near the target.[1] Glide bombs can accurately deliver warheads in a manner comparable to cruise missiles at a fraction of the cost—sometimes by installing flight control kits on simple unguided bombs—and they are very difficult for surface-to-air missiles to intercept due to their tiny radar signatures and short flight times. The only effective countermeasure is to intercept launching aircraft before they approach within range, making glide bombs very potent weapons where wartime exigencies prevent this.[2]

funny question cheesy. They don't have countermeasures, but allied countries that have will help them with the countermeasures, that is how they have been surviving, on their own against Russia they won't last one week, but with their partners standing by their side, that is why the war that wasn't supposed to last one week is dragging on several years after cheesy grin
