During the interview, the Air Force chief of aviation reported on the development of precision kits for Soviet aerial bombs

He said this in an interview. Golubotsov noted that now Ukraine is already working on the development of high-precision kits for Soviet aircraft bombs, which, due to the presence of two consoles, should provide an increased flight range and will have high accuracy. According to him, tests of the Ukrainian-made KABs should start in a few weeks.

If they are successful and mass production begins, the domestic precision bombs will increase the intensity of their use at the front. However, according to Golubotsov, specialists now face the most important test — the correct selection of transmitters, the GPS module, and the wing.

In addition, Ukrainian KABs must have a high level of protection against russian EW systems to ensure high accuracy when used against enemy rear targets. And the aircraft that will become carriers of such weapons must be modernized in a certain way to partially integrate the bombs into the weapon control system.

On June 3, it was reported that leading state-owned and private enterprises of the defense-industrial complex, which are recognized as critical to Ukraine's economy under martial law and have a legal basis to armor up to and including 100 percent of their employees, urged the authorities not to mobilize officially employed workers of their enterprises during the reconciliation of data in the TCR and SS.
