Ukrainian Artillery Struck A High-Precision Active-Rocket 155mm M982 Excalibur On A Russian Position

a few things. for one. i wonder if those who made these feel a bit of pride when they see videos of it. i'm sure they're not telling themselves that they're only attaching the "stabilizer of peace" to the end of the shell after inserting the explosives. the other thing is i find it interesting that we can design and produce weapons of war and never have the chance to test them in battle. we design ammunition to take out top of the line heavily armored vehicles and until recently, we've been using them on ford 250's in the middle east and what not

Good question! I think there is some pride in it when used especially in a defensive war. Not sure they watch the videos though, as they are acutely aware of their capabilities, more inclined to ponder on how to make it better than waste time on clips =)
