Use of Glide bombs in Ukraine

Russia has increasingly relied on glide-bomb strikes to hammer Ukrainian positions in recent months. These munitions are particularly difficult to intercept because they have short flight times, small radar signatures, and non-ballistic trajectories.Glide bombs have flight control surfaces and are known as standoff weapons, meaning that Russian warplanes can release them at a distance beyond the range of Ukraine’s air-defense systems. Glide bombs have been a headache for Kyiv’s forces for much of the war, but Russia has significantly ramped up its attacks using these weapons over the past few months. Will Ukraine survive the Russian bombs ?
