My first reaction was not the strike missed. But then the follow up explosion showed me the error of my ways
Heavy rain of Tungsten balls.
From what video is the lady singing?
On other videos these things usually explode. Too bad it didn’t here. We’d see another astronaut.

Counter Battery fire.. you would think the Russians would have learned to shoot and scoot by now. Then again, all the shooters keep getting blown up, so maybe no one is alive to tell them to move. 🙂
A high value target with just 10km range.
This is what usage I think about when I hear HIMARS: tactical weapon that could be used on immediate targets, like If you have HIMARS 50km behind you you can point during a combat on a specific hill or strongpoint or even tank, and in meaning of 2 minutes missile hits it.. But seeing most videos it’s not how HIMARS used.
Yay, they replaced that swastika in the middle of their logo finally.
This is the second Tyulpan the AFU killed in 2 days. A couple days ago on a highway to the northeast of Donetsk City: https://old.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/18wvfsp/2s4_tyulpan_240mm_selfpropelled_heavy_mortar_goes/
I think the AFU has already destroyed all ~10 of the 2S4’s that the RF army had in service at the start of the 2/2022 invasion. All of the Tyulpans being killed now are the ones Russia is pulling out of storage.
Wonder how many more functional ones do they have left in mothballs.
When the video started I thought that hunk of Russian shit had already been hit.

So it’s one of the 460 tulpyan/pion allegedly deployed recently?
25 minutes to set up and once set up it fires at a lazy one round per minute. Not surprising they keep losing them really. They got the crew with this hit as well, you can see the shrapnel pepper the wall of the building.
That escalated quickly.
Looks like cluster munitions are working….
This is what hit on tyulpan looks like. Not like few days ago when were shown hit on ukrainian decoy, when after hit were just small fire and no secondary explosion. And after i said that it was hit on decoy, i were told “cope harder”.
If I read correctly, it takes an hour to stop, shoot and move again with that artillery piece.
It’s an awful lot of time to be spotted and turned into a statistic.
And that’s not even a direct hit, still causes the burst
Tyulpan=tulip

Crazy, the missiles “missed” by about 25-30 m but still managed to blow up ammo (behind thin armor – with the motar in the stowed configuration, there cant be ammo outside on the loading slide).
Thats scary. A 155mm wouldnt do that.
