Description
The KAB-1500S-E GLONASS-guided weapon can be dropped from aircraft at altitudes of 500 to 5,000 meters and airspeeds of 550 to 1,100 kilometers per hour (approx. Mach 0.5 to 1). The Circular Error Probable (CEP) is about 7 to 12 meters and is provided with an impact fuze with three delay modes. It is intended to destroy targets in well known locations such as munitions depots, industrial facilities and ships at berths. The target position can also be fed into the flight mission during captive flight before the bomb is dropped. The KAB-1500S-E bomb made its combat debut in late 2015, early 2016 within the Russian air strike campaign in Syria.
