Air Force of Ukraine carried out a high-precision strike on a building with russian soldiers and military equipment in the Kursk region of russia. Ukrainian pilots used four aircraft bombs, presumably GBU-39/B Small Diameter Bombs (SDB), which hit the target like a sniper

A video of the effective combat work of Ukrainian aircraft was published on June 11 by the Telegram channel WarArchive.

In addition to enemy manpower, the facility also housed electronic reconnaissance (ER), electronic warfare (EW) and other military equipment.

According to OSINT observer PJ "giK" from the social network X, the object was located in the village of Kulbaki, Kursk Oblast, russian federation (51.260050, 34.779353). Analysis of the video shows that four guided bombs were fired sequentially at the upper part of the building. All hits were accurate, which led to the complete destruction of the building.

As for the weapons used, it can be assumed that these could have been high-precision GBU-39/B SDBs, which are regularly used by the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to deliver pinpoint strikes on enemy targets.

The GBU-39/B Small Diameter Bomb is an American high-precision air-to-surface glide bomb developed by Boeing to increase firepower without the need for heavy ammunition. Due to its small size as well as high accuracy, it allows the bomber to avoid entering the enemy air defense zone.

Due to its low weight and compact size, the bomb allows carrier aircraft to carry up to four SDBs instead of one standard 500-pound JDAM bomb. This significantly increases the density of target destruction per airstrike.

As Defense Express reported earlier, Ukrainian Air Force struck russian troops with eight GBU-39 bombs. We also wrote, that Ukrainian Forces Strike Building with russians Inside in Kursk Region with GBU-39/B SDB.
