Its 74 minutes long. When does he say that?
I'm not going to spoon feed you. Educate yourself or don't, i don't care.
Black person
seems to be at 53:21
he actually doesn't say what it is, but the description only really fits GLSDB
>he actually doesn't say what it is, but the description only really fits GLSDB
I guess the problem is that the russians see a high flying, slow moving contact on their radars and shoot it down. Who could have foreseen that when weapons like SS-21 and 220/227 mm MLRS rockets gets intercepted. GLSDB is a weapon ideal for blowing up durkadurkas but a total dud in a peer war. The russians also claims shootdowns of french hammer bombs which are rocket boosted and far faster.
>russians claim
Anything after that particular phrase is automatically confirmed as amusing fantasy
considering the fact that HIMARS is still number one by killer of Russian close, medium and long range AA I don't believe their lies
The zigger you're responding to wants it to be rad shoot downs,
But it's more likely just humdrum, passive jamming.
Quick check of the transript shows that GPS only shows up once in regards to exporting its usage. not russia being able to cause issues.
is there another party jamming gps on ukraine that we dont know about it anon?

There is no way you ate not some sort of shitskin.
Making low quality bait threads about "why western x sucks" is exclusivly shitskin thing.
umm akshually the only thing that separates us from the russians is an honest attempt at seeing where we fail
russians constantly false flag in order to degrade this capability by inflaming people and making them see bait threads even when there isnt one
Hell you might be a falseflagging russian yourself trying to shit up discourse
Hello, fellow kids!
Missed again. Bait threads are much more popular and are a good way to expose sad gays
moron here.
Can someone tell me what TTP is?
>TTP
tactics, techniques, and procedures
essentially saying that this computer is shit because PEBCAK

Anon, please think about what is typically between the computer and the keyboard. It’s “problem exists between chair and keyboard”
>ground launched bomb
what the frick circular evolution resulted in this bullshit?
someone in management needs to be dragged into an alley and have his nutsack stomped flat
It's kitbash to get utility out of expiring stock.
In this case, M26 rocket motors
There's SDBs in stock.
There's rockets that will be dismantled.
Ukraine can't afford to bolt bombs under their fighters and rack up thousands of flight hours in their ageing MiGs to drop bombs.
So you bolt the bombs to a rocket motor to do the job the air force does, but from a ground vehicle.
Wait until you learn the Israelis took air launched anti-radiation missiles, bolted them to rocket boosters and fired them from ground vehicles too.
I agree, we should give them more ATACMS and PRISM instead.
Also, the russians claim that they can intercept and shoot down 122 mm MLRS rockets. If true, their short range AA is way better and far more numerous than NATO equivivalents.
Russians claim they can intercept Storm Shadow, there has been several instances of SS passing by whole battery of S-400 and they failed to intercept any
just because they can doesn't mean they will everytime. of course they hope that tards on the Internet will take them for their word
Absolutely despise the whole "th-th-this is actually a good thing for Ukraine!" crowd. But aren't GLSDB hilariously inexpensive and easy to launch? Is there not still some value to them eating up Russian AD?
They're kinda like a kamikaze drone, I suppose.
Real convergent evolution area
In twenty years, everything will be some form of cruise missile.
>But aren't GLSDB hilariously inexpensive and easy to launch? I
That's the idea in first place, something to fill the gap between a 155 shell with GPS kit and a GMLRS, cheaper than an 155 excalibur.
They are more vulnerable to GPS jamming than GMLRS are because of the trajectory.
The GMLRS rocket does course adjustments from the very start of it's flight to get close to the target, it then falls in at a steep angle at supersonic speeds, likely spending fairly minimal time In the jamming zone relying on INS.
The GLSDB meanwhile uses unguided rocket to get to altitude and then glides at a much shallower angle to get to the target, spending much more time gliding at lower altitudes inside the jamming zone.
This allows the INS to drift much more.
This high altitude aero-gliding trajectory also makes them more vulnerable to air defense fire, and since they aren't available in the numbers of the GMLRS they cannot simply saturate the air defense.
