Military experts stress that Ukraine has nothing up its sleeves to counter the Russian FAB-3000 bombs, and allege that the new projectile may play a crucial role in the special military operation.
Russia has started mass producing bombs that pose a critical threat to the Ukrainian Army, the Chinese National Radio has reported.

“After Russia had enhanced the FAB-3000 bomb with a correction module, its destructive power became even more formidable. The shell fully justifies its name of a superbomb," said military observer Shao Yunling.

The weapon will reportedly be unstoppable by Kiev's current defenses.

“Air defenses Ukraine currently possess are incapable of intercepting these 'superbombs' which means that Kiev's ground troops are completely vulnerable to these shells," added Shao.

He believes that the FAB-500 will have a serious impact on the special military operation and become a fatal threat to Ukraine.
