Fucking finally. This is the exact type of thing Ukraine needs. Make sure any large ammo dump or command post within 300km of the front line ceases to exist.

Hopefully they allow Ukraine to use them against military targets in Russia as well, but, that's probably too hopeful.

Even if they don't, every one of these used more locally frees up usage of what limited stock they do have of things that can reach further.

Yeah, it's embarrassing it took this long. These could have taken out the KA-52s that have been a key part of stopping Ukraine's offensive.
