There are two main types of 500 kg aerial bombs of the Russian army, one is the FAB-500 M-62 low-resistance bomb, one is the FAB-500 M-54 high-resistance bomb, in the Syrian battlefield, the Russian Air and Space Force loves to use the FAB-500 M-54 high-resistance bomb, it is said that the hit accuracy is high, this time in the Ukrainian region, mainly use FAB-500 M-62 low-resistance bomb.
In addition to these conventional bombs, the Russian military industry also has some 500 kg satellite-guided bombs, laser-guided bombs and TV-guided bombs, but these bombs are not modified on the FAB-500 M-62 low-resistance bomb, but are newly developed and produced. So the price is higher and the yield is less. In contrast, the U.S. military industry has a large number of improved models based on the 1,000-pound MK83 aerial bomb, and its overall cost is much lower.
These differences are due to differences in the combat systems and industrial bases of the two countries. The image is transferred from the network
