The US plans to resume deliveries to Ukraine of high-precision GLSDB (Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bomb) bombs, modernized to counter Russian electronic warfare equipment.

The return of GLSDBs to the battlefield could happen in the coming days, as their stocks are already in Europe. The Ukrainian military last used it several months ago, Reuters reported.

The previous GLSDBs that Ukraine received earlier proved vulnerable to Russian electronic warfare systems, which prevented them from effectively engaging targets. Consequently, 19 test launches of modernized versions have taken place in recent weeks to improve their resistance to jamming devices.
