Air Force (Air Force) The United States needs high-precision weapons to confront Russia and China. Former US Air Force pilot, Mitchell Institute analyst Mark Ganzinger has found a remedy against enemy defenses. This is reported by Flight Global.

The Mitchell Institute noted that the Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) system has insufficient efficiency. A set of equipment that turns free-falling bombs into correctable ammunition will not be able to withstand modern means of air and missile defense.

Ganzinger emphasizes that the US Air Force needs medium-range cruise missiles. Ammunition that can hit targets at a range of 90 to 460 kilometers will allow carrier aircraft not to enter the affected area. Also, the new family of missiles should be inconspicuous. This will make it possible to effectively hit mobile targets.

The publication suggested that in a potential conflict, the effectiveness of stealth aircraft with melee weapons will decrease. Depletion of stocks of AGM-158 Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM) missiles will make inconspicuous aircraft useless.

In September, US Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall spoke about the construction of five inconspicuous B-21 Raider bombers. The first plane will take to the sky in 2022. The aircraft will be able to carry AGM-158 missiles.

In August, The Drive edition called the advantage of the B-52 Stratofortress bomber over the Russian Tu-160, Tu-95MS and Tu-22M3. It is distinguished by a combination of strategic and tactical weapons.
