The Russian ODAB-1500 bomb has a 675+ kg thermobaric warhead that vaporizes anything within 30 meters and sucks the air from lungs up to 150 meters. It uses a UMPK kit and has a range of 70 km—absolute terror. India's equivalent is the one-ton Gaurav LRGB. 🇮🇳🔥

⚡ 🇺🇸 U.S. Navy has successfully tested the turbojet powered JDAM Long Range, a new weapon that flew nearly 200 miles during trials off California. This upgraded JDAM adds a small jet engine to the standard bomb, turning it into a low cost cruise missile for carrier strike groups. Tested from F/A-18E/F Super Hornets, the weapon hit targets with meter level accuracy using GPS guidance. The Navy says this gives pilots the power to strike from much safer distances in contested battlespace. Could this become America’s next mass produced long range strike weapon?

❗️❗️❗️🇺🇦 According to Denis Shtilerman, chief designer of the Ukrainian company FIRE POINT (which produces cruise-ballistic missiles and long-range kamikaze drones), the Ukrainian strike drone FP-2, after modernization, has increased its combat payload to 200 kg and its flight range to 370 km. 💣 Thus, with medium-weight kamikaze drones carrying almost glide-bomb-level warheads operating in FPV mode, Ukrainians will be able to conduct powerful strikes across the entire front zone, including the Crimean peninsula — something they previously did with the earlier version of the FP-2, which had a 105 kg warhead and a range of 220–250 km.

🇪🇺🇬🇧🇺🇦 Europe’s top missile maker MBDA has successfully tested the new CROSSBOW long-range cruise missile designed specifically for Ukraine, marking another major step in providing affordable, US-component-free deep-strike capabilities to Kyiv. The largest European arms corporation, MBDA, has announced the successful test launch of the CROSSBOW cruise missile, specially developed for Ukraine under the Project Brakestop program. 🚀 The missile’s warhead weighs approximately 300 kg, with a flight range of over 800 km. Project Brakestop is a UK Ministry of Defence initiative launched in November 2024 to create cheap, mass-produced, long-range cruise missiles for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. A key condition is the complete exclusion of American-made components and US-supplied data. Video is generated by Grok AI

⭕🇬🇧 UK F-35s are finally getting a real long range punch. Britain has approved the StormBreaker (SDB-II) smart bomb for its F-35 fleet, a precision stand off weapon with a range of up to ~75 km (46 miles), capable of hitting moving targets in all weather while remaining stealthy. British F-35Bs can carry up to 8 internally without sacrificing stealth.

⭕ Pakistan Unveils Advanced Canister Launched Abdali Missile with Extended 450km Range In a major leap forward for its tactical missile capability, Pakistan has successfully test-fired an advanced canister-based version of its Abdali short-range ballistic missile, now boasting an extended range of 450 kilometers. The new missile marks a significant evolution from its predecessor, offering enhanced mobility, survivability, and strike precision. The earlier Abdali system had a maximum range of 180 km and was mounted on a Soviet-era MAZ-587 chassis using a rail-type launch system. This older setup required longer launch preparations and was less adaptable to rapid response scenarios. In stark contrast, the upgraded Abdali missile is launched from a modern Chinese origin Taian truck and stored in a sealed canister—reflecting a contemporary shift toward quicker, more secure, and more mobile missile deployments. 🔹Key Upgrades Over Previous Version: 🔹Extended Range: The new Abdali can strike targets up to 450 km away—more than doubling the reach of the earlier model. 🔹Canister Based Launch System: Offers faster reaction time, all-weather capability, and improved safety during storage and handling. 🔹High Mobility Platform: The Taian launcher ensures better on-road and off-road performance, enabling rapid repositioning and increased survivability. 🔹Improved Accuracy and Reliability: While classified, the missile is believed to incorporate upgraded guidance systems for more precise targeting. This successful test underscores Pakistan’s continued efforts to modernize its strategic forces, signaling enhanced battlefield flexibility and deterrent capability in an evolving regional security landscape.

BREAKING; RUSSIA Unveils World's First Intercontinental Fighter: Su-34 Could Strike Washington from Moscow Skies?!! Russia has fielded the "world’s first intercontinental range fighter" with the Su-34, capable of flying from Moscow to Washington, Su-34 as the longest-ranged tactical combat aircraft in service, emphasizing its ferry range potential. No aerial refueling assumed: The Su-34 has a refueling probe and can extend range indefinitely with tankers, but the claim focuses on unrefueled capability. Su-34 could achieve a ferry range approaching 8,000 km. The straight-line distance from Moscow to Washington, D.C., is approximately 7,500–7,800 km (depending on exact points, like Moscow to D.C. proper). Standard specifications include: 🛬Combat radius: Around 1,100–1,700 km (depending on load and profile), often cited for low-level or hi-lo-hi missions. 🛬Ferry range (clean or with minimal load, internal fuel): Typically listed as ~4,000–4,500 km in reliable sources like Wikipedia, manufacturer data, and military analyses. 🛬With external drop tanks (e.g., three 3,000-liter tanks), some estimates extend this to ~8,000 km or more, factoring in optimized cruise and reduced payload.

🚨🇺🇦✈️ ZELENSKY: UKRAINE IS BUILDING DRONES CAPABLE OF REACHING UP TO 10,000 KILOMETERS. If achieved, virtually every part of Russia would fall within the range of Ukraine’s next generation of long-range strike systems. President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that Ukraine’s defense industry is rapidly expanding the capabilities of its indigenous drone fleet. According to him, Ukraine already fields long-range drones with an operational range of more than 3,000 kilometers, a figure expected to increase to 4,000 kilometers by the end of this year. Looking ahead, Zelensky revealed that next year Ukraine expects to deploy drones capable of flying between 5,000 and 10,000 kilometers, marking a dramatic leap in the country’s long-range strike potential. Such a capability would allow Ukraine to hold strategic military targets across the entire Russian Federation at risk, including locations thousands of kilometers from the front line, fundamentally reshaping the strategic depth of the conflict.

Russia installed anti-drone cages around the VNIIR-Progress plant in Cheboksary. Ukraine sent a Flamingo. The cages didn't help. The FP-5 Flamingo is a Ukrainian-built cruise missile with a 3,000 km range and a 1,150 kg warhead - developed by Ukrainian firm Fire Point. Cost per unit: around $500,000, roughly one quarter of a US Tomahawk. VNIIR-Progress, now ablaze, produces the Kometa navigation modules used to guide Shaheds, Kalibr missiles, Iskander-M and precision glide bombs - the same weapons Russia uses to strike Ukrainian cities. The plant sits 1,000 km from Ukraine's border. The Flamingo reached it anyway.

Indian Army could become 1st in world to induct ramjet powered artillery shells into service. 🇮🇳 These shells successfully conducted developmental firing trials at Pokhran field firing ranges. 🔴 CURRENT STATUS Despite successful firings, the system remains in the development & optimisation phase, as it requires further refinement of combustion stability, air intake efficiency, & sustained thrust under extreme gun-launch spin & acceleration before progressing to user trials & eventual induction. Once the technology is fully developed, it can be used on any gun system in the Indian Army’s armoury, including the M777 ultra-light howitzer, enabling it's integration without need for a new calibre or dedicated platform. 🔴 EXPECTED RANGE • Initial operational version: ~60–80 km • Future variants: 100+ km 🔴 IMPORTANCE These Ramjet.powered artillery will enable deep strike capability using tube guns, faster response times, & enhanced reach in high intensity conflicts, particularly against Pakistan & China, where extended range & rapid counter battery fire can be decisive.
