@@doomoo5365 Possible, though they're pretty far from Ukrainian lines to try to do a runner. I'm guessing it has more to do with untrained soldiers who can't maintain distance at night without a strong possibility of getting lost. Plus Putin's general top-down command structure and its rigid refusal to learn and adapt. If Putin can't even take the time to train truck drivers, things are getting dicey.
1:47 Since all the others got hit by debris, and only debris, I wouldn't rule it out. Russian things are like a debris magnet. Especially precision guided, cluster debris.

The truck where probobly a supply column. This truck where sufficient to supply aprox two mechanized companies.Now their war effort is limited for a day
The ammo may have only been a day's supply (not sure on that), but the trucks the ammo was on were pretty much irreplaceable. Even if Putin has more ammo, moving it to the front will be impossible without new trucks, and Russia's running perilously-low on those.
I had the chance to see clusters from a distance of five miles away. Nasty. It was said during the first Gulf War that an ejected rocket canister scored a kill on an Iraqi infantry column.
Deploying vehicles in convoys just appears to be a tactic to create mass targets of opportunity. Is there a reason for them to put all their eggs in one basket?
Maybe they think it is is like the "keep everyone together" approach of avoiding the U-Boat or some "safety in a herd" model. But that doesn't work with a multiple drone or HIMAARS attack where clustering targets just makes it easier. Here there's no opportunity to hide from the pack or predator or where there is improved defense by forming a group.
@gerrelldrawhorn8975 Yes, the navy did that when trying to counter submarines, usually because of having a means to defend the convoy from subs. When a major surface raider was around the command was to "scatter" so multiple targets could not be swatted at once. You would think the Orcs would know by now they have no defence against high mobility high precision weaponry. You wonder if they do "think".
It's a pretty standard practice to move in convoy form behind the lines. This was conducted probably 10-15k's behind the front. Most likely troop transport or a supply convoy. Either or would be a good result for Ukraine. Being this is filmed in thermal, I'd assume the strike was conducted at night.
This is ATACMS, the missile body is always ahead of the cluster munitions it disperses as they are smaller and affected by air resistance more. The same is true of the second strike. You can tell the difference between ATACMS and the HIMARS cluster rounds as the HIMARS cluster rounds strike in a ring, the ATACMS are dispersed much more evenly as there are far more submunitions.
i dont think that thisis true, the 155 mm arty cluster rounds makes the ring with a few in the midle ,, the only difference the big himar rounds to the small is how many submunitions they hold,, ATACMS are fired from the himar and the bigger two casette version HIMAR IS THE NAME OF THE LAUNCHER, NOT THE AMMO

9+ trucks parked up next to a reservoir suggests that this could have been a water run . That means the ru in the Pokrovsk direction are running out of water and maybe other supplies . If this was a water run It also means there were likely quite a few ru troops in the area to load up the trucks . This is a good strike on many levels . If this was a main source of water then the units that were relying on resuppliy will be struggling for a while .
(Gulf war vet and MIT engineer....Ive driven through areas struck by these rockets as well as air dropped cluster munitions in Iraq) Briefly... The way these rockets work is the rocket is targeted beyond the ground target because the warhead needs to dispense submunitions a couple hundred meters ABOVE AND SHORT OF the target. When this happens, the warhead body and submunitions loose their aerodynamic fairnig and immediately slow down but the ROCKET MOTOR CASING, which is about half of the projectile, does not. This is why you see the rocket casing arrive BEFORE the submunitions, because its still traveling faster AND is intentionally targeted beyond the ground target. Going a little deeper...The motor casing (heavy and still aerodynamic) is still on a the original ballistic trajectory but because of greatly increased drag, the submunitions ( heavy and not aerodynamic because they trail fabric 'tails' to cause the shaped charge to orient the in the direction of travel) are on a changed/slower trajectory. The warhead fairing ( light and not aerodynamic) is on a third trajectory, even slower, which falls well short of the target which you wont likely see if framed on target. Something similar happens with air dropped cluster bombs that the bomblets and dispenser casing are on separate trajectories as soon as the dispenser opens both assume separate and new trajectories (and fall shorter than the original trajectory). This all known (precisely) as part of the attack profile so that the weapon can deliver effects on target.
If these are HIMARs then they would have to be the M30 rounds. They carry actual submunitions which is different than the M30A variants, the Tungsten ball rounds. I don't remember seeing M30 cluster strikes before but maybe I missed them. Supposedly the M30s were all being upgraded to M30A specs.
