JDAM vs Russian Glide Bombs

Joint Direct Attack Munition vs Russian Glide Bombs
Glide bombs are conventional drop bombs that have been fitted with navigation and wings. Some have this flying capacity built-in during production, while others are modified subsequently. The additions mean that glide bombs can travel much further with greater precision than unguided bombs.
Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM)
Produced by Boeing, the JDAM is used for precision bombing. The JDAM is a guided air-to-surface weapon designed with a tail control system and a GPS-aided inertial navigation system.
It can be launched from most U.S. and allied aircraft and have a range of up to 15 miles. The JDAM can be launched in dive, toss, loft, and level flight modes from low to high altitudes.
The JDAM is available in varying payloads such as 2,000 pounds, 1,000 pounds and 500 pounds. Conventional bombs can be modified into JDAMS with the addition of a tail-kit costing $22,000.
Russian glide bomb
Glide bomb is used by the Russian military to destroy infrastructure and military targets in Ukraine.
A typical Russian glide bomb weighs 1.5 tons or 3,000 pounds and has an attached wing for gliding.
Prominent glide bomb used by the Russians is a Soviet-designed FAB-500s upgraded with a wing and navigation kit..
“These are no drones carrying 40 kilograms. Guys, these are deadly one-and-a-half tons of the real deal,” pro-Kremlin military blogger Alexander Sladkov wrote in a Telegram post earlier this month.
Details about the Russian glide bombs’ guidance systems is not known. Most Russian glide bombs are unguided, features a single nose fuse.
Conclusion: The JDAM can be dropped with more precision compared to Russian glide bombs. However, the JDAM is estimated to cost 4 to 6 times as a typical Russian unguided glide bomb.
What the Russians lack in precision, is made up by sheer numbers. Russian Su-34 and Su-25 aircraft are believed to be carpet bombing Ukrainian targets with glide bombs.
