“Glide Bombs Horrify Ukraine Troops” Russia Shows First Fab-3000 Strike From Su-34, Mocks Patriots

Russia has for the first time released footage showing the carriage and launch of the guided, winged version of its huge FAB-3000 aerial bomb. The weapon is among the more recently announced additions to the growing family of UMPK (Universal planning and correction module) munitions in Russia’s arsenal.
The UMPK adds a pop-out wing kit and a guidance package to a range of existing freefall weapons. FAB bombs upgraded with UMPK have wings that flip out as the weapon is released by the aircraft and a satellite navigation system.
The Russian defence ministry emphasised that the FAB-3000 possesses a “combat power that cannot be ignored.” The FAB-3000 is an older Soviet-era bomb that has been modernized with new guidance systems, allowing for precision strikes.
This upgrade has provided Russia with a significant tactical advantage, enabling aircraft to deploy these bombs from greater distances.

  12. Russia's ability to adapt old stock was always a factor known to Janes but the UK Minstry of Defence bulletins in 2022 to mid-2023 persisted in stating that Russia was short of ordnance.
    Being from a British military family (alas, not myself having good health to be a hands-on field operative, so my brain was used instead), I was suspicious of the bulletins because it is not a tradition of British armed services to disclose and speculate. Further, the bulletins used a phaded out logo and although the defence administration is colloquially termed the 'MoD', it long ago ceased to be a 'Ministry' and became the Department of Defence. Thus the sources of the bulletins are, at best, from some civil service propaganda branch or, more likely, some amateur venture designed to make money from YouTube etc.
    While the USA has aircraft 'boneyards' in deserts containing thousands of assets, these are not maintained and not protected from UV light, dust and oxides.
    Russia, by contrast, used its empty spaces to store assets of the Soviet era in a maintained underground environment to prevent TNT leakage and fuses tend to kept far away. This is in stark contrast to the US B-61 nuclear aerial bombs stored in Poland and only operable by US personnel — not by Poland. These are 'dial a yield' weapons and are known to local people to be leaking toxins into the water table.
    The UK and Turkey also stored these "for" the USAF but the former demanded their return to Los Alamos some years ago. It is likely that Turkey did the same. Other US-only ordnance was stored in Italy for a long time but strong local administrations obliged Rome to have these taken away.
    Well done Italy for refusing to be used. My own UK took longer and the B-61s were found to been left under airfields no longer on loan to the USAF. No Inquiry seems to have been published but the facts of this recollection from a now old man should be closely monitored by Romania on its 'new' NATO base and by any countries hosting American "guests" because their baggage is often lethal through gross carelessness and conceit.
    Fun fact on the FABs, inventor Alfred Brooks OBE of the "cookie" 4000 lb bomb in the early 1940s suggested adding folding wings to add precision by the end of 1943 and avoid risks of crew losses in RAF Bomber Command and these worked quite well for that time. By late 1944 when the Nazi air defenses were less effective the wings were used less.
    Brooks's more famous colleague Sir Barnes Wallis theorized that more complex wings on his 'earthquake' double charge bunker buster 4000lb bombs could allow better precision and retain height after release then shed the wings and hit a given target at supersonic speeds. This was basically a description of what became cruise missiles.
    US similar developments post-WW2 were the AN-M56 and 'MOP' bombs, which were cancelled.
    Now we see Russia adding GPS to very big TNT/Torpex bombs and these could increase in size and effect if the current Kiev conflict continues and, of course, does not enter realm of 'tactical nuclear weapons'.

  21. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭28:1‭-‬9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    [1] To you, Lord, I call; you are my Rock, do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who go down to the pit. [2] Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place. [3] Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak cordially with their neighbors but harbor malice in their hearts. [4] Repay them for their deeds and for their evil work; repay them for what their hands have done and bring back on them what they deserve. [5] Because they have no regard for the deeds of the Lord and what his hands have done, he will tear them down and never build them up again. [6] Praise be to the Lord, for he has heard my cry for mercy. [7] The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him. [8] The Lord is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one. [9] Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever.

  22. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭29:1‭-‬11‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    [1] Ascribe to the Lord, you heavenly beings, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. [2] Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness. [3] The voice of the Lord is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the Lord thunders over the mighty waters. [4] The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is majestic. [5] The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars; the Lord breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon. [6] He makes Lebanon leap like a calf, Sirion like a young wild ox. [7] The voice of the Lord strikes with flashes of lightning. [8] The voice of the Lord shakes the desert; the Lord shakes the Desert of Kadesh. [9] The voice of the Lord twists the oaks and strips the forests bare. And in his temple all cry, “Glory!” [10] The Lord sits enthroned over the flood; the Lord is enthroned as King forever. [11] The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.

  24. ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭9:13‭-‬14‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    [13] Don’t you know that those who serve in the temple get their food from the temple, and that those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar? [14] In the same way, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should receive their living from the gospel.

    ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6:7‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    [7] Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.

    III
    ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6:8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    [8] Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

    IV
    ‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭11:1‭-‬9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    [1] Ship your grain across the sea; after many days you may receive a return. [2] Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come upon the land. [3] If clouds are full of water, they pour rain on the earth. Whether a tree falls to the south or to the north, in the place where it falls, there it will lie. [4] Whoever watches the wind will not plant; whoever looks at the clouds will not reap. [5] As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things. [6] Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let your hands not be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well. [7] Light is sweet, and it pleases the eyes to see the sun. [8] However many years anyone may live, let them enjoy them all. But let them remember the days of darkness, for there will be many. Everything to come is meaningless. [9] You who are young, be happy while you are young, and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see, but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.

    Be sure what types of bread you would want to eat before you ever decide to put them on the water. Not because you throw it on the water to think it's gone and done. It will surely come back to you, and you're gonna have it to eat it
