  1. This is footage I screen recorded at the time I saw it on this sub-reddit. Thought it was a very good example of the fragmentation cone/damage.

    EDIT: This may be “GMLRS (Tungsten rain) strike from HIMARS/M270”

    EDIT 2 (WIKIPEDIA): *M30A1 rockets with Alternative Warhead (AW). Range: 15–92 km (9.3–57.2 mi). GMLRS rocket that replaces the M30’s submunitions with approximately 182,000 pre-formed tungsten fragments for area effects without unexploded ordnance.[86] Entered production in 2015.[75][76] This warhead is superior not just because it does not use cluster munitions but is also superior to a normal high explosive round: “A high explosive round is very impressive because it produces a big bomb and large pieces of shrapnel, but this round is small pellets and covers a much larger area.”[87] The M30A1 uses a proximity sensor fuze mode with a 10 meter height of burst.[88*]

    Це кадри, які я записав на екрані, коли побачив їх на цьому суб-редіті. Подумав, що це дуже гарний приклад осколкового конуса/пошкодження.

    РЕДАГУВАТИ: це може бути “GMLRS (вольфрамовий дощ) удар від HIMARS/M270”

    РЕДАГУВАТИ 2 (ВІКІПЕДІЯ): ракети M30A1 з альтернативною боєголовкою (AW). Радіус дії: 15–92 км (9,3–57,2 милі). Ракета GMLRS, яка замінює суббоєприпаси M30 на приблизно 182 000 попередньо сформованих вольфрамових фрагментів для впливу на зону без боєприпасів, що не вибухнули.[86] Запущено у виробництво в 2015 році.[75][76] Ця боєголовка є кращою не лише тому, що не використовує касетні боєприпаси, але й перевершує звичайний снаряд великої фугасної речовини: «Снаряд великої фугасної речовини дуже вражає, оскільки він створює велику бомбу та великі шматки шрапнелі, але цей снаряд складається з маленьких кульок. і охоплює набагато більшу територію.”[87] M30A1 використовує режим підривника датчика наближення з висотою вибуху 10 метрів.[88]

  3. This is the best HIMARS round in my opinion, no way to survive.

  4. That frag pattern, i’m guessing a pretty shallow trajectory on the rocket. Usually it’s more round

  5. The key to avoiding being instantly killed by one of these is to not invade a sovereign country. Look at me… I’m still typing on my keyboard in my own country and my biggest concern right now is remembering to move my clothes from the washer to the dryer.

  6. Insta-kill to whatever might have been alive in those buildings. At least I’d wish for an instant death if that hit me.

  9. That kill radius….

    I keep thinking of swiss cheese every time I see videos like this.

  10. Metal detectorists of the future will have an interesting time on sites like this, hopefully a lot of bone amongst the tungsten…

  11. I have followed this war since the beginning, can the US and EU just go full in for once?
    The shit innocent people has to suffer because all the hesitation. When putlers army invaded Ukraine, the us should have sent all their warthogs at once.
    The Russians were having perfect situation where this could have taken out a hell of a lot of their army
    And all of EU should have all artillery shells at once instead of waiting for that sorry excuse of a man called putin to let his men dig in and fortify their positions. This could have been over by now but
    everybody that sent some did it a bit too late.
    Think of the lives that we could have spared if we just sent it in the right time.
