Ukraine will be the first country to use these bombs in combat.

On Wednesday, January 31, 2024, Ukraine may receive from the United States of America the first batch of high-precision ground-launched small-diameter rocket bombs GLSDB .

Politico reported this , citing two US officials and two other people familiar with the negotiations. It is known that the shells are produced by Boeing. Their transfer to the Ukrainian Defense Forces was announced last year. It is noteworthy that these bombs are not even in the stocks of the American army. 

It is noted that the Pentagon has successfully tested a new long-range precision bomb. It is expected to “arrive on the battlefield as early as Wednesday.” The first batch of projectiles will be adapted for strikes with a range of about 150 km. 

The American official stressed that this would give the Ukrainian military “deeper strike capabilities that they did not have, it will complement their arsenal of long-range fires.”

Ukraine will be the first country to use these bombs in combat. This will be a critical test for other countries that have been stocking up on long-range munitions since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

  1. Better than nothing, but we need the West to remove their fear, and send Ukraine some long distance missiles to destroy the moskali oil terminals. Mafia land say they are fighting the West and NATO, so where is the problem in making it true?

    • It baffles the mind that we are still dealing with fear in those various wusses after two years of war.

  2. If they are really precision, I wonder if one or more could fly up the midget’s Arsehole.

    • It probably could. But, it would have to plow through Trump, Schröder, Orb-anus, and a few other butt moles first to get in there.
