Russia for the first time used a new guided bomb: what it means for the front.

Today, Russian troops used a modernized guided aviation bomb (KAB) for the first time over the territory of the Poltava region, reports 'Glavkom' citing the Air Forces of Ukraine. The distance to the target was about 120 km. This attack confirms the consistent modification by Russia of air attack means aimed at increasing the range of destruction and minimizing risks for its tactical aviation.

According to inkorr.com: OSINT analysts believe that the target of the strike could have been Poltava, as the bomb fell 20-30 km from the city, flying over Skorokhodove. The enemy used a gliding aviation bomb equipped with a guidance and correction module, likely in a version with a jet engine. The previous use of similar weaponry occurred on October 18 in the city of Lozova, Kharkiv region. The strike over 120 km from the border indicates the use of hybrid weapons, such as 'Hrom-1' or its more advanced versions, which can hit targets at a distance of up to 200 km.

Summary

Russian troops for the first time used a guided aviation bomb in the Poltava region, striking at a distance of about 120 km from the city. This event indicates an escalation of military activity by Russia and the testing of new means of destruction on Ukrainian territory.
