Over the past week, the Special Operations Forces destroyed the invaders’ rocket launchers and radars in the Zaporizhzhia direction.

The press service of the Ukrainian SOF reported on this.

In cooperation with the units of the Defense Forces, the operators of one of the SOF detachments managed to destroy three rocket launchers and the invaders’ counter-battery radar within a week.

Operators spotted, identified, and adjusted fire on BM-21 Grad and BM-27 Uragan multiple launch rocket systems, destroying the TOS-1A Solntsepyok heavy flamethrower system and the Zoopark radar.

Judging by the accuracy of hits and the nature of the damage, strikes on the detected targets were carried out using the HIMARS rocket systems.

Separately, the use of powerful M30A1 rockets against the Russian counter-battery radar should be noted, the warhead of which is equipped with 180 thousand pre-formed tungsten balls. The missile is characterized by an over-the-target detonation to increase the area of destruction.

Similarly, in the south, on October 16, a Ukrainian SOF unit detected operators of Russian ZALA 421-16E2 drones.

After identification of the target, the operators adjusted the fire of the Ukrainian artillery. The HIMARS rocket system was involved in destroying the invaders.

It is worth noting that ZALA reconnaissance UAS are usually used to aim Lancet loitering munitions.

Also earlier, on October 10, in the Zaporizhzhia region, the Ukrainian military eliminated the Russian operators of Supercam S350 drones with the help of HIMARS.

The active use of this rocket system to defeat such targets is due to its high accuracy and guaranteed damage to targets. In addition, the range of defeat and the minimum flight time of the missile allows it to strike quickly.
