Ukrainian Bomber Drone Strikes Russian BM-21 Grad on the Move

UAV pilots of the 412th NEMESIS Regiment of the Unmanned Systems Forces (USF) struck a moving enemy BM-21 Grad multiple rocket launcher.

The USF press service released the corresponding video.

It is reported that the defeat of the enemy MLRS took place in the Luhansk region.

“It is not an easy task to hunt down MLRS, because the enemy usually uses the ‘strike-and-retreat’ tactic: firing positions are located in one place, and the cache is in another, at a distance of tens of kilometers,” the statement said.

The USF emphasize that high-quality intelligence and careful planning allow operators to carry out such operations with high efficiency.

The enemy BM-21 Grad was attacked by a bomber drone while traveling at a fairly high speed.

Judging by the footage released, the munition hit the combat vehicle in the cockpit and hood area.

The chassis is most likely beyond repair, and the launcher may well be used further.

According to the ORYX OSINT resource, in the full-scale Russian-Ukrainian war, Russia has lost at least 265 BM-21 MLRS, including 207 destroyed.

On January 12, FPV drone pilots of the 109th Separate Battalion of the 10th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade “Edelweiss” reportedly destroyed an enemy Grad along with a munition.

According to the footage, the drone hit the rear of the launcher, which caused the detonation of the entire munition.

The “War in Ukraine. Losses of equipment” project detailed that the Grad was destroyed near the village of Mykolaivka, in the temporarily occupied part of the Luhansk region.
