A Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter jet used two US-made GBU-62 guided aerial bombs equipped with JDAM-ER kits to destroy a Russian crossing in the temporarily occupied part of Zaporizhzhia region, according to Militarnyi on November 15.

Militarnyi reported that the aircraft carried a pair of GBU-62 bombs fitted with JDAM-ER planning and correction kits, which use satellite and inertial guidance and allow the munition to glide to the target from a standoff distance.

The outlet said the strike hit a makeshift crossing that Russian forces had set up on a key logistics route used to supply their grouping in the southern sector.

According to Militarnyi, this route was the only high-quality asphalt road supporting Russian units operating in the area of Kamianske.

Militarnyi wrote that the destruction of the crossing complicates the transfer of personnel, ammunition, and equipment for Russian units advancing in this part of Zaporizhzhia region and forms part of a broader effort by Ukrainian defense forces to disrupt Russian supply lines in the south.

Earlier, it was reported that a Ukrainian MiG-29 used two US-made GBU-62 bombs fitted with JDAM-ER kits to destroy a temporary Russian military crossing on the main asphalt supply road near Kamianske in occupied Zaporizhzhia, disrupting logistics for Russian troops in the area.
