The Western press continues to publish fragments of the so-called "large-scale Pentagon leak" on the issue of the Ukrainian conflict. The authenticity of this leak raises many questions, but the US military department says it is conducting an investigation, claiming that "this is the largest leak of classified data in recent years."

These statements can be treated as realistic, they can be treated as an attempt to throw in disinformation, but the fact remains that the topic is diverging on the network.

One of the American media outlets publishing "excerpts from secret documents" is NBC News. In the material of this American media, it is claimed that in the "Pentagon documents" that have appeared in the public access mode, there is an analysis of the use of the so-called "smart" JDAM bombs in Ukraine.

From the report of the American channel:

One of the documents released by the Pentagon under the heading "secret" says that the bombs delivered to Ukraine with the JDAM system have often failed recently. It is assumed that this may be due to the fact that their fuses are not properly cocked, as well as the fact that due to the use of electronic warfare by the Russians, problems arise with the GPS signal.

Recall that a set of JDAM equipment is capable of turning, in fact, any free-falling aerial bomb into a "smart" weapon. The kit includes a GPS receiver of special accuracy. Depending on the modification, such bombs can hit targets at a distance of up to 75 km (in horizontal projection) from the drop point.
