Russian Defense Industry Boosts Production of Powerful Aviation Bombs, Outpacing Previous Capacity Growth

Production of aviation bombs of various calibers, including the powerful FAB-3000 with unified planning and correction modules (UPMK), has increased thanks to the reactivation of Russian defense enterprises. This was reported by the Telegram channel of the state corporation “Rostech”.

The corporation noted that the production of semi-ton FAB-500, which were the first to receive UMPK modules on a mass scale, has increased significantly, while the more powerful FAB-1500 has doubled. Mass production of FAB-3000 has also been launched.

“Such results were achieved thanks to the reactivation of capacities, technical rearmament, and modernization of production lines for the manufacture of artillery and aviation strike means using modern high-tech equipment,” said Rostech.

Earlier, military expert Leonkov discussed the use of FAB-3000 for fortified objects, such as “Azovstal” in Mariupol.

Military expert Knutov previously stated that Ukrainian air defense systems are powerless against FAB-500.

In a recent development, Russia has announced an increase in the production of aviation bombs, including the powerful FAB-3000, as a result of reactivating its defense enterprises. This revelation comes from the state corporation “Rostech” through their Telegram channel.

According to the corporation, the production of FAB-500 bombs, equipped with UMPK modules, has seen a significant rise, while the more potent FAB-1500 has doubled in numbers. Furthermore, a mass production line for the FAB-3000 has been successfully launched.

The corporation attributes these achievements to the reactivation of capacities, technical rearmament, and modernization of production lines utilizing advanced high-tech equipment.

This development raises concerns, especially considering the previous discussions by military experts. Leonkov, for instance, highlighted the potential use of FAB-3000 for fortified objects, such as the “Azovstal” in Mariupol. This poses a significant threat to Ukraine and its security.

Moreover, military expert Knutov has previously warned about the lack of capability of Ukrainian air defense systems against the FAB-500, further exposing the vulnerabilities of Ukraine’s defense infrastructure.

These developments undoubtedly demand attention and a critical evaluation of Russia’s increasing military capabilities. The United States government, under President Biden, must address this worrisome situation and take necessary actions to protect national security interests.
