27th Ukie Rocket Artillery Brigade closes down Russian small arms range (video)
|
[Forbes] For at least the sixth time in eight months, Russian troops gathered out in the open for training or inspection within range of Ukraine’s American-made artillery rockets. And for at least the sixth time in eight months, Ukrainian batteries hit the assembled Russians with rockets packed with hundreds of grenade-sized submunitions—inflicting terrible carnage.
The most recent strike apparently took place this week, at an outdoor gun range in Zaporizhzhia Oblast in southern Ukraine. A Ukrainian surveillance drone observed around 15 Russian soldiers practicing with their weapons—and passed along the coordinates to elements of the 27th Rocket Artillery Brigade, the Ukrainian army's sole unit operating American-made High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems launchers.
The wheeled HIMARS opened fire with at least one M30/31 rocket packing 400 grenade-sized bomblets. The first rocket scored a direct hit. The drone observed at least one bomblet exploding directly where a Russian trainee was standing. The death toll could be catastrophic for the targeted unit.
