2,091The Russian army received FAB and KAB guided aerial bombs with an increased flight range. The increase in the bombs' flight range was achieved by installing a modernized universal planning and correction module (UMPK). The new modules of the kits (UMPK) are equipped with a longer wing, in the photo you can see the difference in the wing length of the UMPK module. Instead of the current 50-60 km for FAB-500 bombs, the range of the new aerial bombs can increase to 78-85 km. In addition, tests of one of the most powerful Russian bombs, the FAB-3000M54, are also being completed with a new UMPK module. Bombs with UMPK are currently one of the cheapest and most effective means of destruction in Russian arsenals. Currently, UMPK is installed on KAB, FAB-250 bombs, OFZAB-500 incendiary aviation bombs, FAB-500T, FAB-500 M62 heat-resistant bombs, and FAB-1500 M54 and FAB-3000 bombs. The most powerful Russian high-explosive bomb, the FAB-9000 M54, is not yet used.
