The GLSDB combines Boeing’s 250-pound Small-Diameter Bomb—with its GPS-aided inertial guidance, pop-out wings and different warhead options—with a 350-pound booster borrowed from the old M26 rocket.
Exactly why the Americans would send another HIMARS when Ukraine already has 38 HIMARS plus 23 similar M270 tracked launchers—and hasn’t lost any of them—is hard to say for sure.
38 HIMARS are like 5 artillery batteries, except you cannot hit them back. Russia loses that much artillery each 3 days and keeps fighting.
