What is the best way to show you've rocketed a population center without having to actually fly over them?

The generous interpretation is they don't really want to shoot at anything so they're just firing off at nothing. Not sure that holds up though since they gotta come down somewhere and they could just as easily fire them all into an empty field or whatever within normal range.

Pretty incredible what gets captured on film in this war. We saw it hit (filmed from afar, blurry), we saw it inspected after being abandoned and now we see it land.

If that truck had gotten hit by just about anything, you would’ve been able to see the explosion from loving SPACE.

Reminds me of a story about some royal engineers (iirc) (fake edit: actually mightve been a us unit) in africa driving around with a truck full of italian mines that had supposedly been deactivated. "Instantly vaporized" and "nothing left", were also part of the description.

I've noticed several instances of remote turret gunners aiming high to account for drop, do these systems not have range finders and ballistic computers to automatically adjust the crosshairs? Even then why not at least use a rangefinding reticule instead of a simple crosshair to help with holdover?

At first I thought they were just watching a recording until the cameraman's reaction at the missile passing overhead made me realise they're actually filming while engaging.
