Night work of Ukrainian HIMARS on Antonovsky Bridge near Kherson. Russian forces tried to intercept the rockets, but didn't succeed.
MilitaryLand.net, Aug 14, 2022.

---

The first 4 seconds of this video of a russian attempt to intercept GMLRS rockets hitting the Antonovsky Bridge are revealing:

1) three russian air defense missiles rise & detonate in the same area, which means the russian air defense operators fired the missiles into the air on a pre-set course and with a timed fuze. Proof that russian radars are incapable to detect & target GMLRS rockets.

2) and the russian air defense operators fire the missiles into the air to the West and South of the bridge. Proof that they don't know the actual flight profile of a GMLRS rocket.

As I said before: the russians can't jam GMLRS rockets, they can't spoof P/Y GPS, they can't shoot down GMLRS rockets.

Now we also know that russian radars can't detect them and are useless.

Firing ammo into the air on a timed fuze and hoping the shrapnel will hit an enemy airborne object is early WWII tech… but that is what the clownish russian army is doing now with their expensive missiles.

Let me repeat it: GMLRS rockets ALWAYS hit. Nothing can stop them.

As I have said before … modern weapons properly employed can be very deadly. We see this in the high losses the Russians have taken in a fairly short amount of time in this conflict.

Nothing can stop them.

Nothing in this theater can stop them. Defense systems of the same technological level should be able to stop them.

I think that may be a given, but who has the tech and capabilities to do that?

I am sure the Chinese have stolen plans for them. Whether they have reverse engineered them is another matter.

Not here yet… but 'possible' future Laser weapons?
