Notably, his presentation also pointed out that the fight against ISIS had seen a dramatic increase in the service’s use of GBU-39/B Small Diameter Bombs (SDB), a light 250-pound class GPS-guided glide bomb, as well as Hellfire missiles. These small weapons would have been again most useful against small groups of insurgents in the open, crew served weapons and other fighting emplacements, and light vehicles. The Air Force felt stockpiles of both munitions were “healthy” as of March 2014, but the campaign in Iraq and Syria put its inventory of both “on glide path to zero.”

As of November 2016, American aviators – whether from the Air Force, Navy, or Marine Corps – had not dropped any more specialized JDAMs with BLU-118/B or BLU-121/B thermobaric or BLU-109/B deep-penetrating bunker-busting warheads, though there is some indication these have since seen use during the Mosul offensive. However, with over 51,000 bombs and missiles expended in total by that point, the Pentagon was reportedly digging into war reserves in Europe and Asia to make up for the shortfall regardless.

“For munitions…, we remain challenged by the pace of current operations,” Air Force Major General James Martin Jr, the service’s Assistant Deputy Secretary for Budget, told reporters during the proposal’s rollout on May 23, 2017. “Based on current demand…, we will put an emphasis on replenishing our weapons inventory.”

With this in mind, the Air Force and the rest of the U.S. military will probably have to focus on just making sure there are enough munitions to continue its existing missions before moving on to see whether future purchases

Estoy de acuerdo, Poli. Pero eso es por el nivel de respeto por la vida de Occidente. Que estamos de acuerdo que preferimos ese escexo de respeto que lo contrario, que es lo que lleva a usar mayoritariamente armas guiadas con alta precisión. Si hay una guerra total simétrica, si la sociedad pasa a tener miedo de verdad como para obviar ese respeto, entonces ya se tirará p.ej. de no guiadas que hay muchas más y son mucho más baratas y fáciles de fabricar y de armas más "brutas" de las que frenan en seco, que con una acongojas más que con muchas de las anteriores.

Por cierto, en un post anterior apareció una foto de un nuevo misil ruso A-A más corto que un R-73. Pues los chicos de Aviation Week especulan con que en realidad sea un R-77 sin terminar: https://aviationweek.com/missile-defens ... le-factory

India quiere el misil Meteor enseguida. Exige que sus primeros 4 Rafale previstos para mayo les lleguen ya junto con 8-10 Meteor, pese a que en el contrato se estipulaba que les serían entregados varios meses después de la primera entrega de aviones:

Interesante movimiento: Estados Unidos incluye el requisito de tener una adecuada planificación y capacidad de designación de objetivos a los países que quieran adquirir municiones guiadas yanquis. Se debe a la mala presna: al uso que se le ha dado en ciertos casos (p.ej. A. Saudí contra los huzíes), que ha sido criticado por falta de discriminación y planificación de objetivos:

Pues que el Meteor acabe en manos indias no me parece una buena noticia. Los rusos tardarán cero coma en destriparlos

India lleva muchos años comprando armamento occidental, y siguen.

Claro, pero es que de momento no hay nada comparable al Meteor en ninguna parte.
