FALCON POWERS – Russian media outlets have released footage of the Sukhoi Su-34 fighter jet flying over Ukraine, where it dropped the Russian “FAB-3000” bomb, also known as the “Doomsday Bomb”.
Russia had already begun large-scale production of the massive and highly explosive FAB-3000 bombs.
The bomb weighs around 3 tons and can be compared to tactical nuclear weapons. The FAB-3000, equipped with wings, is dropped from the air towards its target, and the bomb rotates 180 degrees after falling to correct itself for gliding. Upon impact with the target, it inflicts severe damage on fortifications and infrastructure.
The Russian Ministry of Defense had announced on March 22nd the start of large-scale production of the highly explosive air-dropped FAB-3000 bombs.
Former Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu had then inspected the execution of the Defense Ministry’s orders at enterprises of the military-industrial complex in the Nizhny Novgorod region. The Russian Defense Ministry stated in a release that since February of this year, the expanded production of the devastating FAB-3000 bombs had been organized.
