Will the GLSDB Bombs Become a Game Changer for the Conflict in Ukraine
Throughout the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Ukraine has been receiving military aid packages from its allies to help maintain its position. One country that has played a significant role in this war is the US. The US has continuously shown its commitment by providing Ukraine with military equipment and munitions.
In line with this, Ukraine has eagerly been awaiting the arrival of another US-provided battlefield weapons system for almost a year. According to a report, the United States was planning to supply the Armed Forces of Ukraine with a new type of precision weaponry called the Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bomb or GLSDB, which has the capability to hit targets up to 150 km away. Given the US’s prior provision of highly effective weapons such as the HIMARS and the Javelin, the arrival of the GLSDB prompts the question: What impact will it have on the Ukraine conflict? Before we explore this further, let’s delve into the story behind the delivery of this bomb.
