Rockets are expensive, and their production process is relatively long. But you can reduce time and money if you convert aircraft bombs into guided precision-guided munitions.
The speaker of the Ukrainian Air Forces, Yuriy Ignat, spoke about this at the telethon.
According to him, the AFU is afraid that Russia will start massively upgrading old bombs into precision-guided munitions.
- the Ukrainian officer will assume.
He noted that a large number of old aviation bombs have been stored in Russian military warehouses for many years, since Soviet times. It remains only to modernize them. This will allow you to achieve the desired effect with minimal time and financial costs. According to Ignat, this is an excellent option for Russia, especially in the context of Western sanctions, which, in his opinion, have a significant negative impact on Russian missile production. And the savings in the modernization of bombs, compared with the manufacture of missiles, can be tenfold, or even a hundredfold.
It will be extremely difficult for the Ukrainian military to deal with such weapons, because this will require shooting down Russian planes, which, to put it mildly, is not very good about them.
