The recent attacks on Pavlograd (Dnipropetrovsk region) could have been caused by these munitions. The city is located more than 80 km from the front line, and the distance from the launch point is estimated to be over 150 km.
The UMPB-5P is an upgraded version of a gliding aerial bomb with a jet (turbojet) engine. Thanks to it, an ordinary FAB actually turns into a relatively cheap analogue of a cruise missile. Carrier aircraft (most often Su-34) It can drop it while remaining outside the range of most Ukrainian air defense systems.
According to Ukrainian sources and open investigations, the range of such munitions in real conditions reached 130 km (the Lozovaya strike in 2025) and is estimated at 150-200 km, depending on the height and speed of discharge. The engine is a commercial Chinese turbojet (Swiwin SW800Pro-Y or equivalent).
As a result, not only front-line settlements are under attack, but also rear military installations, logistics, industry, and large cities that were previously considered relatively safe from fabs. In fact, the depth of the lesion increases significantly.
