Allegedly one Russian soldier was injured and one launcher was hit. Needs more visual confirmation
Really fascinating footage honestly though. Not often you see a S-400 battery’s perspective.
Judging by the amount of missiles fired this must have been a costly AA operation
“My legs got hit again, bitch!” says the Russian crew member after the hit

claims this has happened months ago: “SEVERAL MONTHS HAVE PASSED SINCE THIS INCIDENT” (auto translate)
The guy sounds really frustrated at the end… like he spilled mustard on his shirt… AGAIN!!!
The vaunted S-400 fails again.
It seems like one GMLRS rocket costs about $500,000 and one 48N6 missile intercepter costs about $1,000,000.

War seems expensive.
They’re brought the nominal cost for a GMLR rocket to around 200k to build assuming the US is handing them over at the rate in which they pay Lockheed for them. I also believe top of the line Russian S-400’s have a going rate a little higher then 1 million per missile. Assuming the HIMAR shot off all of its payload looking at 1.2 Million USD vs. 8 intercept rockets at a cost around 8 million USD and thats before any possible damage to any component parts of the system. Not at all sustainable for Russia, however I have to question why the system is in range of HIMAR’s in the first place that tightly packed together.
Off topic but aren’t these farting noises jet engines make while flying by sound hella sexy?
I think the missile part of the 400s have failed when it needs to pretend to be a fucking flak system to engage the ONE fucking GMLRS above them🤷♂️
Now that’s a lot of tax money.
