The new precision-guided US weapon has been pulled from use by the Ukrainian military because Russia is taking them out using electronic warfare, according to reports.
Ukrainian and Western officials told The Wall Street Journal that the Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB), manufactured by Boeing and Swedish company Saab, had failed and was no longer in use pending an overhaul.
The GLSDB is a guided bomb with a range of 94 miles, thanks to its small wings that extend from its body. In 2022, marketing materials for the bomb said its navigation system is "supported by a highly jamming resistance GPS."
Are we solving the problems of the world? Just a thought.
