The Russian Federation mentioned the Drel Steals Bomb: Can Su-57 be carriers-experts (video)

The company added that the weapon allegedly passed all the necessary tests, but in this case there are questions about what planes will act as a platform for new ammunition. The Russian multi-purpose Su-57 fighter can act as the applicant, but how viable the Bulgarian Military experts have found out. Viewers write that there is not much detailed information about the new Russian airbomble.

According to the article in The National Interest, the invention is likely to be an invisible planning bomb with a cassette warhead. It is assumed that it will be controlled with the help of a global navigation satellite system GLONASS, weighing more than 500 kg and will have a radius of 30 to 50 kilometers. The battle part is likely to consist of 15 self-headed warheads, equipped with a system of detection of "your own" and electronic means for more efficient use.

Naturally, Russian sources have declared the appearance of almost advanced weapons for future conflicts. So the Russian colonel and expert Viktor Litovkin said that the PBK-500U will become a "super-weapon of the future", which is allegedly capable of punching any armor and hitting several goals at the same time. As for the technical characteristics of ammunition, according to Russian profile resources, the PBK-500U has a length of 3. 1 m per diameter 450 mm.

The weight of the cassette warhead is 500 kg. The bomb can be reset the carrier at speeds of 700 to 1100 km/h. The permissible range of reset heights is from 100 m to 14 km. Despite all the pathos, the production of new airbombs was faced with irresistible difficulties. "According to the revised plan, all the necessary examinations were completed in the middle of 2022, including official state tests. But all the terms were tolerated.

Only by the middle of 2023 these estimates were successfully carried out," the observers write. The platform has prophesied their latest SO-57, but discussions have been underway since 2018, experts write. However, it is no secret that the newest multi -purpose fighter of the Russian Federation has both internal compartments and external fasteners, designed to accommodate different weapons.

In the internal compartments located in the fuselage of the aircraft, there can be many types of weapons-from the missiles "Air-Air", "Air Earth" and anti-ship missiles to managed aviation. Meanwhile, for more powerful weapons, which should be the bombs "Drel", Su-57 provides external pylons, since the internal compartments are not intended for this purpose. However, in this case, there can be no question of any stealth-characteristics of the aircraft.
