Is there any special purpose to strike right in the geographical center of the city :rofl:


learn how coordinates work :) , the first/second coordinate data could of been absolutely different and target simply horizontally/vertically positioned to the said city center.

There would be a chance if there were two rockets. Not to mention it was S-300, so the target should be maximum 75 kms away, it wasn't designed to strike a ground target. However, I'd rather believe it was Ha-101 untill they show fragments.

S300 warheads are different for AD & ground. AD uses fragmentation & proximity fuse: it means the tires you see in the photo would have been shredded & there would be no crater. It's a huge hole, so if not a cruise, a ground-attack S300. Only Russia uses those.

But they should operate about 75 kms away to strike. So it's either not S-300 or Ukrainian S-300.

check yourself lol, seems like a Russian spy fucked up bad though, it's like when most here thought it was Ukraine/NATO that blew up the pipes, but we know now it was Russia.


Kiev (right click in center, in google maps)
50.45181909580607, 30.57388357852623

Lviv (right click in center, in google maps)
49.84063951972768, 24.018757225066402

Przewodów
50.47472458979145, 23.92730678951577


So yep, now have to check the exact locations of missiles strikes in Kiev & Lviv to confirm. But this implies it would be ground to ground or air to ground missiles, which seems it's not the case: Poland said it was s-300 anti-missiles right ?

Do you know which kind of missiles strike onto this village ?

The coordinates are about right, give or take a couple miles. Even though it's a weird coincidence I would be very surprised if their system relies on manual data entry.


/e sounds interesting if it's s-300 for ground attack (posts above) but the range is still too low theorically

after some check it seems possible it could have been fired from Bieloruss, with a more recent version of the missile (175 km range max)

Rly weird.

It's the wrong type of missiles anyway. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-300_missile_system
So more likely a coincidence.


The issue here is that if it was Ukrainian AD S-300 what we see on photo would be completely different.

Unless it didn't detonate

I wonder how many munitions, vehicles and misc Ukraine captured from Russia during it's retreat.

It's a small possibility it's a Russian missile, fired by Ukraine.

Or ya know,. a missile from one of the 13 countries who sent military aid to Ukraine.
