⚡Destroyed enemy artillery reconnaissance complex 1K148 "Yastreb-AV"
⚫️ While conducting reconnaissance in the Southern direction, the BpAK crew of the 73rd Maritime Center of the SOF discovered the artillery reconnaissance complex 1K148 "Yastreb-AV"
⚫️ SOF operators together with a friendly unit of the Defense Forces of the 140th ORB adjusted HIMARS fire on the enemy target
⚫ As a result of fire damage, the enemy's "Yastreb-AV" complex was destroyed
For reference: "Yastreb-AV" is considered the most modern Russian radar complex, which is used for reconnaissance of artillery firing positions. With the help of radar, he is able to track the trajectory of the enemy's missiles and calculate the exact coordinates of the positions of his artillery. This data is transmitted to the artillery for defeating the positions.
In regards to your edit, it's not just rockets and dumb bombs. For example, ballistic missiles, which is why they're more vulnerable to interception as they follow a predictable ballistic trajectory.
Hypersonic missiles have technically existed since the middle 20th century. But in the modern context it refers to a technology that would allow for maneuver during hypersonic flight i.e. adjusting trajectory while at speeds exceeding Mach 5.
Might be unrelated to the overall thread but "dumb bomb" has to be my hate word of the century when it comes to military tech. Even bombs with no guidance system whatsoever can be deployed relatively precisely depending on the system used for launching them. Not to speak of glide kits etc. /end of mini rant
Why call it a dumb bomb tho? We already have a word for them - bombs.
I'd say it's not a dumb take, just a take
That's like saying we should just say fighter jets are planes. While it's true, it's not accurate enough to be informative in most scenarios.
Bombs include a lot of subvariants e.g. glide bombs, GPS guided bombs, etc.
Dumb bomb is a correct term, but if you prefer, a less colloquial version would be unguided bomb/ordinance.
Think about it, if a bomb is entirely reliant on its launching mechanism for targeting, and unable to adjust itself ones it's been deployed, it's dumb.
It's dumb because it's a quick and easy descriptor to easily differentiate it from the capabilities inherent to smart bombs, or guided munitions.
