The positions on the banks of the Dnipro are of great importance, in order to hit positions and logistics lines deep inside Ukrainian territory, Russian drone operators position themselves as close as possible to the rivers on certain bombing or espionage missions, and obviously carrying their expensive equipment built by antennas, drones, generators and others. Hence the use of this expensive missile against certain positions and not against equipment, the banks of the Dnipro often have very valuable Russian troops
These are modified Hellfire missiles, developed for the Swedish Coastal Marines to be used in the extensive archipelago on the Swedish east coast against any Russians that dared enter. Glad to see it used for what it was intended for!
This is the first evidence we’ve seen of their usage, right? Feels good as a Swede to see this used against it’s intended opponents. Give em hell.
