Vovchansk blow: Analysts and Armed Forces deny the use of the Russians ODAB-9000 (photo)

According to Kharkiv OTG, the use of this ammunition requires the appropriate carrier, which can theoretically be, for example, a strategic Tu-160 bomber, but the movement of such aircraft has not been recorded. Russian troops hit the Vovchansk in the Kharkiv region with a powerful ammunition. A strong explosion was removed on the camera. The Russian Federation stated that they used the ODAB-9000 airbots, but Defense Express analysts find it dubious.

It is reported that ODAB-9000 is an experimental ammunition. It was only tested once in 2007. The video from this test was used by Russian propaganda to state that the development allegedly exceeded the power of American GBU-43/B or MOB-Massive Ordnance Air Blast. Analysts noted that the abbreviation MOB jokely decrypt "Mother of All Bombs" (mom of all bombs), then in the Russian Federation their counterparts decided to call "Pope All Bombs".

At the same time, GBU-43/B is reported to be a fugas aviation bomb to destroy complex fortified areas, for example, shelters in caves and weighs 9. 85 tons, the Russian is a thermobaric ammunition with unannounced weight. And the name of the ODAB-9000, which should indicate weight, appeared much later and may be a fiction of propagandists. In addition, as analysts noted, ODAB-9000 is dumped directly above the target, and the carriers are Tu-160, Tu-95, TU-22M3.

The scenario of using such a bomb in current conditions is simply impossible, because this would mean a 100% guarantee of loss of the bomber from the fire of the SCR. Experts noted that the first and only time the Russian Federation used TU-22M3 to reset bombs is Mariupol. Analysts have suggested that the Russian Federation used the planning ammunition. Perhaps the UMPC. In the Russian Federation, these kits are produced for aviation bombs in caliber 1500 and 3000 kg.

In this case, the occupiers have repeatedly used the ODAB-1500. The material states that the Russians could also use the UMPC from Fab-3000. At the same time, both ammunition that ODAB-1500, which Fab-3000 from the UMPC is dropped from the front bombers of the Su-34. It was reported in Kharkiv that information about the alleged use by Russian occupation troops of the ODAB-9000 airbots in Vovchansk is not true.

According to a spokesman OTT and Colonel Vitaliy Sarantsev, the use of this ammunition requires an appropriate carrier, which can theoretically be, for example, a strategic Tu-160 bomber, but the movement of such aircraft has not been recorded. "The ammunition was used less weight and power, the explosion of which propagandists were used to create a" spectacular "picture," Sarantsev said.

He also added that such reports may be part of an information warfare aimed at demoralizing the military personnel of Ukraine's defense forces, intimidation of the local population and destabilization of the region. "Once again I urge representatives of Ukrainian media and administrators of telegram channels to observe information hygiene and use proven sources of information and not to distribute fake reports of Russian propagandists, playing the enemy!" - said Sarantsev.
