Is HIMARS the one that can deploy loitering munitions that will make it much more difficult for the Russians to concentrate force?

Dahir Insaat is a great rabbit hole to fall down. Total lunacy from top to bottom, I'm personally a fan of the gigantic Bed/Sarcophagus combo.

Jarmak posted:It did a u-turn and went right back where it came from like it had a track, not sure what you mean by not going backwards. It was going away from the launcher at all times until it impacted the ground. The thing you are saying it did, it did not do. From the missile's perspective, it was going up at an incline, then went down and to the left. Still traveling forward. You will notice that all the sparks are traveling towards the camera on impact. It wouldn't do that if it was going away from the camera. Edit: Also also, look at the illumination on the contrails. The parts that are near the launcher aren't as bright as the area near the impact. CainFortea fucked around with this message at 15:07 on Jun 24, 2022 |

On the other hand, those kinematics, when the missile's full of fuel and still on the booster!

There's another angle on Twitter that makes it a bit more clear the missile did a sideways horseshoe as opposed to a full 180.

A.o.D. posted:It sure looked like a U-turn to me. Video is deceiving. What it looks like to me is, the camera is at 10 or 11 o'clock relative to the missile's travel; that is, the missile is approaching the camera at an angle, rather than traveling perpendicular across its field of view. The missile then suffers a failure that causes it to deflect down and to the left from its original travel, eventually impacting the ground somewhere between the point of origin and the camera. The failure could be a guidance failure but I assume a mechanical failure of one of the fins or something is also a possibility. The missile only appears to return to the point of origin because we can't see depth in a video very well. In reality, it moves away from and returns to the line between the camera and launcher, but doesn't ever turn around and start getting closer to the launcher itself.
