The Russian Federation has declared the creation of planning bombs Fab-1500: what is known about the new threat to the Armed Forces

The fugas airbomb has 675 kg of combat part. If it was really integrated into the Su-34, it threatens to Ukrainian cities and troops. Russian troops are actively using managed airbombs CAC-500. Now the author of the FighterBomber Telegrams Ilya Tumanov claims that a version of the Fab-1500 bomb under the wings set was created. Defense Express explains if it is possible to do it.

The transformation of the Fab-1500 Airline is a new threatening factor that will allow the use of large-caliber airplanes for the occupiers. The enemy will be able to dump them outside the area of ​​damage to most anti-aircraft missile complexes of the Armed Forces. However, the authors understand several possibilities: it is noted that they have reworked the version of the Fab-1500 m54 bomb for the wings.

The Fugas Air Bomb was developed in the Soviet times and has a fighting part of 675 kilograms. In its form it is clear that the bomb should not plan, it should fall vertically to the target. Therefore, it was necessary to change the aerodynamic shape so that it could plan, not vertically fall. In addition, the wings should withstand 1,500 weight of the bomb, as much lighter CAB-500 and CAB-250 have repeatedly opened and fell.

Also in the Russian Federation they complained that the assembly of wings for the bomb suspension requires considerable effort. The mechanism of wing assembly on Fab-1500 should be even larger. If the CAC-250 and CAC-500 are 60-70 km, the CAB-1500 should have an even greater stated range. However, this is when reset from high height and exclusively by planning. An example is a hybrid rocket "Grom-E1", it is a combination of rocket and X-38 bomb. Its stated range is 120 km at a speed of 1600 km/h.

Su-34, which allegedly became the bearer of Fab-1500 is a front bomber. It is stated that it can use 1500 kg of aircraft. To do this, they hang on the inner pylons and in the center under the fuselage. Due to the addition of a structure in the form of an UMPC, the whole bomb can weigh 2 tons or even more. Therefore, the authors summarize that the occupiers were most likely to integrate a 1500-kg bomb with a set of WMPC wings on the Su-34.
