US develops low-cost missile from explosives
The article focused on an agreement between Boeing and the U.S. Air Force to produce jet-powered guided bombs capable of reaching distances exceeding 300 nautical miles. This weapon is considered a new development reflecting the United States' move towards long-range munitions at a lower cost than traditional missiles, allowing aircraft to strike land or sea targets from outside enemy defenses. The $75 million contract pertains to the BSU-111/B unit of the JDAM LR system, which combines precise guidance with a structure compatible with existing aircraft. The first successful test flights have been conducted, enabling large-scale production to proceed quickly and providing an accurate, cost-effective strike capability.
