Much-vaunted US-supplied glide bombs given to Ukraine “didn’t work” due to a combination of mud and Russian signal jamming, the Pentagon has admitted.

Actually no surprise.
Politicians are in this for the money. They don't care who wins this war. 10 pct for joe biden.
Such empty rhetoric from these sob's

Where does the article mention mud as mentioned in the thread title?
 
I dont think we should blame the politicians for bad engineering or russian ingenuity

Its better we should go back to the drawing board and fix weaknesses now rather than when America is fighting another war
 
Back to the drawing board with plenty of well paying government contract jobs!

Way to go, Joe!

Yeah, he did a shitty job of designing them, that is for sure.

Back in realty, this is the best time to find out the flaws in them.

Rooting for the Russians? You should know better than to spread their propaganda!
 
The president doesn’t design bombs, he just pays for them with our money.

Yet you blamed them on the POTUS, even though the ones we sent over there were designed, made and paid for before he even took office.

Well, now the Raytheons of the world can bid on those big, juicy government contracts and pay some nice salaries and benefits to workers in the process.

It’s a win win situation.

(Except for the Ukrainians of course.)

HERE IS WHY THEY ARE USELESS


The antennas of the GPS correction modules integrated into the guidance and control systems of the GBU-39/B hybrid 227mm GLSDB guided missiles have been confirmed to have low interference immunity. This was once again reminded by US Undersecretary of Defence for Acquisition and Supply Bill LaPlante during the US Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) conference.

It is obvious that the GPS receiver presented by the Boeing Corporation as anti-jam GPS has completely lost its effectiveness in the difficult jamming situation in the airspace over Donbass.

Even in spite of the top-oriented position of these antenna modules, EW complexes "Zhitel" ("Житель"), "Field-21" ("Поле-21") and "Serp-VS5" ("Серп-ВС5") easily suppress their receiving channel, which leads to an increase in the circular probable deviation of GBU-39/B bombs from 1.5 - 3 to several tens of metres, reducing their effectiveness to unacceptable levels.

On the contrary, domestic GLONASS/GPS-antennas "Kometa-A/M/R8" ("Комета-А/М/Р8") are able to withstand interference from the majority of enemy EW means operating in the L-band.

This has a number of very important implications, as this is one of NATO's main air-to-ground strike weapons and due to its use in Ukraine, it has become ineffective, which will make its future use against rivals such as China or Iran and even more local actors ineffective

It appears no matter what the Empire throws at Russia, Russia defeats it.

This is not good news for a militaristic Empire in trouble. The world sees it’s not as powerful as was thought, which could lead to more revolts. Plus the Empire‘s biggest export is military hardware. The world will take note of the failures.
