Russian Glide Bombs Wreaking Havoc. Ukrainian Air Defense Running Out of Ammunition
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 бер 2024
- The number of glide bombs launched by Russia at Ukraine is rapidly increasing. And they are wreaking havoc. Just between the 16th to 17th of March, there were 138 recorded launches. 54 of those in the Oblast of Sumy. And Ukrainian Air Defence, much like the artillery, is running out of ammunition. According to various reports, missiles for some air defense systems may run out in a matter of weeks.
But what are glide bombs? And what makes them so dangerous?

This shouldn't be happening, Europe has the capability?! This is infuriating!
Well… thanks Switzerland for denying the deliveries
F 16
well our government is neutral, whatever that means. But yeah why should Switzerland send weapons to Ukraine? We are not part of NATO.@@MaticTheProto
Nope, unfortunately for air defense missiles we need the US
@@Julian-zj2qy yes that has been promised for a year now.
Would it be possible to convert old planes(like passenger planes) into drone MOABs?
Was done/attempted in ww2 by both axis and allies.
You're already late. Ukraine is already converting small training aircraft into unmanned bombs. They have a small payload, taking into account the fuel supply for the flight.
They did it but with small planes

Faut que les américains donne plus de patriotes !
In an industrial war, these things are very cheap: explosive, steel and to some extent, fuel. So this massive bomb is exploiting exactly one direction, explosive. It is similar to artillery but with more range and much more powerful as no tube artillery can have near a tonne warhead. So this aerial artillery will be very dangerous and devastating, especially to defense infrastructure. But it's frequency will be less than normal gun or rocket as I guess, the state of Russian air force is less numerous than army guns.
So to counter it on material direction, soil is dirt cheap, fuel is cheap. Dig deeper. The energy to move soil is cheap, especially when using machine which is also cheap. I guess in several 10 of meters like 20 or 30 meter deep is safe even for 1.5k tonne bomb. For bunker buster, to detect the exact location deep down underground is hard, and we can apply a strategy in naval ship building. I don't remember the word, but instead of a single large bunker we divide into multiple smaller ones, separated by the distance larger than the diameter of the explosion. And each one should have multiple in/out routes to prevent trapped. Structure building material can be using log as it is quite cheap everywhere
And be ready to repair. Visible trench above can be easily repaired as well. It just digging and moving earth.
So we basically return to medieval siege warfare, but with industrial power. It is just explosive vs soil and fuel.
To counter it using military tactics, I guess move in separate and attack in concentration. And always ready to separate again to avoid destruction power as this aerial artillery is no joke after all. It is much cheaper than cruise missile, much more powerful and numerous.
And always should be ready to learn and adapt to opponent.
It was my understanding it wasn't very precise. I might be wrong but had heard they have no guidance system
This is the age of the smart weapon and those things are already super cheap and can out range a patriot missile (at least the 250's and 500's could). You dont think they could afford some guidence for a 3300 pound bomb that they are using as bunker busters?

It's basically a kamikaze drone with a big O bomb on it.

I won't say that Ukraine is a free country
Quite a somber tone compared to the rest of the videos. Things aren't looking good.
Since '14 aint good. Since' 22 is hell.
It's the truth though! 😢😢
Yes it is but this hard time won't last.
You mean putins spade’s and washing machine.

So, how are the oil refineries in Russia ?
Are they still working ?
How are the power plants in ukraine ?
By the latest Reuters reporting, the percentage of disabled refinery capacity from drone hits fell from 14% to 10% in a month due to rapid repairs
How are you airdefence doing in ukraine?
@@rayotoxi1509 so much better than those the Orcs have. Thank you for your concern.
@@keegan773 oh, so Zelensky is lying when he's constantly begging others to give him more air defence systems
Thank you very much for this informative video. Ukraine definitely needs more air defense systems.
the kit is nothing like JDAM, JDAM just adds better precision while russia Glide kit not only has better precision they also get distance, the US have no kits like this at all.
And the the patriot battery than were shooting down Russians jets that battery got destroyed 2 weeks ago sad
As a Canadian our PM has to keep his promise of sending NASAM. Instead we sent old rockets from the 1960s that dont explode.
russia has counter measures to them as well as stormshadow now
may be he needs firstly not to cheer and clap with all for an ex SS soldier in front of the whole nation ..... than speaking of help
Rubbish!
Just imagine what would happen if Russia increased its air strikes from maybe 2000-5000 per day, to 5000-10,000 per day to more specifically target Artillery, Trenches, Ammunition and Weapons Stores, Tank Positions and also Military positions. and the most dangerous thing is if the Russians also start production of Iranian-made UCAVs along with their ammunition and also cheap missiles from NK and Iran and then with Iran's UCAVs they increase Drone attacks on the front line. and apart from that, the missile will be used for counter battery and deep strike.
Why hasn't all Ukrainian citizens been evacuated and told to leave the east?
And live where once evacuated? Europe is crowded with 700 million people and some are protesting because of the high cost of living. Some Ukrainians take their chance with the artillery and remain home rather than deal with xenophobes.
@@Arch497 The reality is that Ukraines have left by the millions. Mostly men who refuse to fight.
ruz bot @@honestlocksmith5428
@@honestlocksmith5428 English-speaking Ukrainian men who found a job in the EU have left, as well as mothers who have to take care of children. But old folk with disabilities remained to maintain their homes. And old men remained to fight.
what are you talking about OP Ukrainians already fled in masses to Europe. We are full, it's getting boring to be expected to be the shelter of the worlds population.

This is getting really frustrating. Ukraine's allies need to step up and shut down these weapons.
Slava Ukraini 💪🇺🇦💪🇺🇦🇬🇧
Why tell putin his bombs are FABulous and that Ukraine is running out of ammunition? It is unseemly. In any case: Slava Ukraini !!! Ukraine shall be victorious !!!
Keep dreaming fascist
Maybe Ukraine will surrender but jew comedians never like surrendering plus it is not his people who are dying.
Like the coward who hides behind his extra long table?
To be fair, Zelensky did visit the troops on the frontlines and constantly exposed himself to danger, at least 5 times already. That alone shows immense bravery, especially for a politician. The nearest he got was more or less 2 km from the contact line. You don't see that everyday in this day and age.
The only Russian leader to even visit the frontlines was Prigozhin, at least 3 times, before he had his high rise demise. Shoigu and Gerasimov allegedly visited sector headquarters but not the frontlines themselves. Putin has yet to visit his Velikaya Armiya (Great Army) and meet with the troops to see their progress, to come and see with his very own eyes the state of his soldiers. Go figure why he hasn't visited them yet.
How is that counter offensive going?@@leod-sigefast
wow that wall of text over a little jew comedian who is losing a war and begging for ammo from my country.@@el52
Not his people who are dying? You mean fellow Ukranians? It wouldn't matter if he were Orthodox or Catholic, Being Jewish has nothing to do with it, he is still UkranIan.
