Ukraine is testing a Russian UMPK-style glide kit for
FAB-500 bombs, launched from a Su-24M bomber.
Ukrainian developer Medoed claims the bomb can glide up to
60 km, with plans to reach 80 km in the future, depending on altitude and
tactics.
Ukraine reportedly needs 100 guided bombs per day, but
Western-supplied JDAM-ER bombs, anti-submarine missiles (AASM Hammers), and SDB
bombs do not fully meet the demand.
