A domestic Wing Assisted Guidance Kit for bombs was presented in Serbia

Yugoimport presented a Wing Assisted Guidance Kit for Western-made bombs at the Partner 2023 exhibition in Serbia.

Armyrecognition reports on this.

The kit can operate independently of the aircraft systems. That is, its engagement does not require integration into onboard avionics.

The company developed a kit to expand the capabilities of standard unguided bombs while minimizing the vulnerability of aircraft to threats from enemy air defense.

Due to its own integrated guidance system, this kit has the ability to adjust the trajectory of the bomb in a wide range of weather conditions, thereby increasing the accuracy of the strike.

The kit is called the Wing Assisted Guidance Kit. It allows to increase the range of the bomb to 80 kilometers using a patented algorithm developed at the Viatacom Institute.

In addition, WAGK uses its own integrated navigation algorithm based on GNSS (Satellite Navigation System) and inertial navigation system.

This combination provides ammunition deviation of up to 10 meters with GNSS and inertial system, and less than 20 meters with inertial only.

The system maintains its operability at temperatures between -40°C and + 70°C, and the WAKG storage is possible between -55°C and + 70°C.

Militarnyi recently reported that Russian media released footage from a plant where UMPK (unified gliding and correction module – ed.) kits are made.

The video captured the representative of the enterprise (presumably, NPO Mashinostroyeniya) telling the minister that the design of the UMPK kit was constantly updated and modernized.

He noted that for the first samples of the module, the case and some of the spare parts were machined from a single piece of metal on a milling machine, but now they have moved to a more technologically and economically advanced method of bending the aluminum sheet.
