Details on the means of destruction of the invaders at the Avdiivka Coke Plant have been released.
The Tavria Operational and Strategic Group reported on this.
The Ukrainian Air Force used French AASM-250 bombs to shell the positions of the Russian invaders on the territory of the plant.
A reconnaissance UAV of the LUFTWAFFE unit was used to adjust the fire.
The drone also captured a bomb hitting Russian troops. It should be noted that it is currently unknown what type of aircraft launched the AASM-250 bomb.
However, it should be pointed out that the Ukrainian Air Force uses these guided bombs without integration into aircraft systems, so both AASM and JDAM-ER can be launched from any combat aircraft of the Ukrainian Air Force.
At the beginning of January 2024, French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu announced the start of deliveries of unnamed missile weapons to Ukraine.
As it was later reported, in addition to the SCALP-EG cruise missiles, the weapons included AASM guided bombs.
Sagem specialists developed the high-precision AASM kit as a modular kit with a combined guidance system and rocket engine.
The kit is installed on the Mk.80 family of US general-purpose bombs. Depending on the mission, the nose of the AASM kit can be equipped with three guidance systems: INS with GPS, INS with thermal imaging seeker, or similar with a laser beam guidance system.
The range of such ammunition depends on the launch altitude and initial speed, but according to official data, it ranges between 15 and 70 kilometers.
Militarnyi previously reported on the Ukrainian Armed Forces demonstrating the defeat of the invaders’ command post with JDAM bombs in the Kherson region.
The air force combat aviation carried out the airstrike, and the air reconnaissance unit of the 38th Marine Brigade monitored the confirmation of the destruction of the enemy targets.
