TheAltWorld West Admits Russian Glide Bombs Might Actually be “Game-Changer”
– CNN admits Russian glide bombs are not only shifting lines on the battlefield, but are growing in quantity and capabilities;
– Russian glide bombs allow Russian warplanes to release munitions out of range of Ukrainian air defense systems, hitting targets with explosive power many times larger than artillery, rockets, and missiles;
– Ukraine’s dwindling air defense capabilities are unable to neutralize this growing threat and the arrival of US-made F-16 warplanes are unlikely to help;
