UMPK glide-kit bomb class (KAB/FAB pattern) vs GLSDB ground-launched small diameter bomb class

Both sides in the current war field standoff glide weapons, but built them differently: GLSDB rockets an existing bomb from ground launchers, while UMPK bolts wings onto legacy bombs for air release. The pairing compares two industrial answers to the same air-defense problem.
