  1. The ingenuity of those fighting for their land, homes and family is mind blowing. I’m reminded of the hell cannons and other improvised weapons systems. Use what you got to protect your life

  2. “The work of a soldier of the 5th separate detachment of the Special Purpose Center “Omega” using an RPG. In the video, the special forces officer shoots several times at the windbreak, where the occupants’ manpower has gathered. RPGs are designed to destroy armored vehicles, fortifications, or enemy manpower with a grenade launcher.”

  3. Impressive, enough ammo, fire correction from drone operators and these fuckers have a problem.

  5. the spirit of Jamsheed lives on. He smiles down upon this warrior

  6. Feels like a disconnect between shooting and result video…

  8. I feel like the “suspected” is probably a bit unnecessary in this context lol

  9. A cool bit of innovation that reminds me of the PIAT

  11. Let me add a little context. The RPG has fragmentation ammunition (OG-7) in its arsenal, but such shots are quite rare (the main one was considered to be an anti-tank grenade, which is actively used for drones), and the fragmentation grenade has a weak effect. Replacing ammunition is an interesting solution, although questions arise with shooting accuracy and possible modification of the fuse
