Russian Loitering Munitions Destroyed M777, FH70 Howitzer Of Kiev Forces (Videos)

The Russian military has destroyed two more Western-made howitzers of Kiev forces using advanced Lancet loitering munitions.

On March 25 and 26, two videos surfaced online showing strikes against an FH70 and an M777 towed 155 mm howitzers of Kiev forces on an unspecified front in the special military operation zone. Both howitzers received direct hits.

The ZALA Aero Group, a subsidiary of Russia’s defense giant Kalashnikov, produces two versions of the Lancet, the Izdeliye-52 with an endurance of 40 minutes and a three-kilogram warhead and the larger Izdeliye-51 that has an endurance of an hour and is armed with a warhead weighting five kilograms.

Both versions of the loitering munition are equipped with an electro-optical system that can detect, track and lock on static and moving targets.

The FH70 howitzer has a range of 24 kilometers or up to 30 kilometers with extended range shells. The howitzer can fire a burst of three rounds in 15 seconds thanks to a unique semi-automatic loading system which consists of a loading tray and an automatic tube loader. Ukraine received ten such howitzers from Italy and later 24 others from Estonia.

The M777 howitzer has a maximum rate of fire of seven rounds per minute with a range of up to 40 kilometers when firing M982 Excalibur precision-guided rounds. Kiev forces have received 152 howitzers of this type so far. The U.S. provided 142, while Canada provided four and Australia six.

Many FH70 and M777 howitzers have been already destroyed or damaged by the Russian military, mainly with artillery fire and loitering munitions.

Kiev forces are still struggling to match the fire power and accuracy of the Russian military, despite receiving more than 800 artillery systems from their allies.

The western media cry Russia is escalating by deploying nukes in Belarus. Isn’t it so that USA has deployed nukes in Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Czechia… as the nuklear inclusion with NATO members? Why is Russia not allowed to do this with it’s ally? Sidenote: Russia has sent them some hundred kilometers away where as USA thousands of kilometers as direct threat tu Russia. The alert time for USA will not highly decrease with this step.

Those are ‘humanitarian freedom nukes’ built to bring peace and democracy. Totally incomparable.

Nobody is deploying “nukes” anywhere. The cat is out of the bag. “Newks” are just as fake and gay as everything else to come out of the 20th century (The “Phony Century”).

RTWT, and share far and wide.

There has already been a “nucleic war,” 3/4 of the population has been “safely and effectively” killed.

“Newks” were just a grift to scam trillions.

This book was “memory-holed” by Amazon (wiped without a trace), so now it is time to prove that the internet never forgets. It is at archive.org, but people should save remote copies and share as much as possible.

Gurble guk?

Mini Tactical Hypersonic Nuke ready locked on Kiev

Sabotage the ships carrying the tanks from the US to Europe: use a torpedo to sink it. It’s a legit target as these tanks will be used to kill Russian civilians. And then play dumb, like they did with NS1 and NS2. “-We will do an investigation to find out who did it”. Be proactive. Or just place some sea mines on their Atlantic route (like one poster today suggested here on SF). Russia, dont be a coward.

I guess these military pieces will be firing a bit wonky after that. Saying that, i think these drones need more explosive.

These drones are damaging the artillery pieces but not destroying them. They can be repaired within a weeks time. NATO has techs deployed in Ukraine to fix them for Kiev. Sorry but this are hardly a victory to celebrate since the equipment will back on the battlefield relatively quickly.

Russians loitering in Syria caused its complete destruction that will not go innoticed nor unpunished.

The zionists who exploited religious tensions and the sunni extremist who did the work for them are to blame for that.

No, the CIA sponsored civil conflict to depose Assad was what ruined Syria, get it right cunt.
