HIMARS: how Ukraine's super weapon changed the war with Russia
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 май 2024
- HIMARS - it’s the high-tech superweapon giving Kyiv hope in the war, as Ukrainian forces launch counter-attacks into Russian-held southern parts of Ukraine.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
Military analysts are calling the long-range missile system, provided by the US, a “game-changer”.
So, how do these weapons work?
And can just 16 of them really give Ukraine an advantage over the might of Russia’s artillery?

Since Ukraine began using the HIMARS, they've taken back around 13k km². That is a LOT in around 5 to 6 weeks. The spread for this weapon's 3 meters at 50 miles. Pretty effing sharp.
Ukraine has won back more than 20,000 squared km

The worst thing about war is that civilians are the ones who suffer the most, there are many children who didn't expect to experience such a situation
I Russia had stayed home there would have been no one suffering.
Yes I already asked myself many times how many of the dead civilians are children.
Really sad, all the death and destruction. For what? Putin should be ashamed of himself for starting this nonsense.

Russians are sick in minds
HIMARS forces Russia‘s supply lines to be further back, making it more difficult to bring supplies and men closer to the front. It’s less what HIMARS can hit, than the area it threatens.
It doesn't just force their supplies further back, it can cut the supply lines and more importantly, any potential reinforcements. The U.S. waited for the best time to send HIMARS. Russia does not have smart weapons left that could take them out. And with the sanctions, no way to build more.
Biden has to stop dragging his feet so this war drags on and on ..Is he doing this because he is compromised to Russia like he is to China. Open Hunter Bidens laptop and find out ...
They destroyed alot of ammunitiom depots and commando posts as well, so I'd say yes its also about what they can hit/their precision

I think this report lacked a list of specific targets hit by Himars, so we can understand better what they "take out". Is a bunker with 3 generals meeting in it also the threat?
Nobody in any war scenario makes public that type of specific military information. your enemy can also read.
Perhaps you should pray to your personal, magical, sky daddy, for knowledge to be revealed to you.
Figure it out. They can't give specific targets because it's bullshit. When Russia states that they have hit a warehouse full of weapons or a troops train or whatever they can name the place and show images. If any of this twaddle was true why can't Ukraine do the same. Please don't give that ridiculous explanation of not wanting to reveal to the Russians.

@@MelioraCogito no, the “sarcasm” is just dumb
HIMARS basic rockets have a range of around 28 miles, and hit within 5 ft. of their targeted location. Add the fact the HIMARS missile can deliver from 500 antitank to 1000 antipersonnel munitions with each rocket, multiply that by 16 rockets that can converge on a single target and you understand why it's a game changer.
That's great..... if they can get within 28 miles. The russian junk's range is more than that. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that if it had a range of 100 miles would be a worthwhile tradeoff for lower accuracy than within 5 feet.
@@medexamtoolsdotcom You do realize that there are multiple types of rockets that can be loaded into himars right? You’ve got the basic m28 rockets with a range of 57 miles, then you have the medium range gmlrs rockets with a range of 93 miles and then you have the biggest and baddest atacms rockets with a range of 186 miles. That’s the reason the himars is so critical to Ukraine and why they have been hitting targets so far beyond the frontline. Like in Crimea.

World War III Has Begun; How It Unfolds Depends on Us
We think of the Russia-Ukraine war as a local conflict, but it is much more than that; it is a global war on multiple fronts. The war is not only a military conflict; it is also an economic war of attrition. With skyrocketing gas prices and shortage of staples, people all over the world are feeling the consequences of the war
This war is transforming the entire modus operandi of humanity. Since the dawn of time, we have been accustomed to living by the motto, “survival of the fittest.” By and large, the rule was that the strong determined the rules, and the rules were often abusive toward the weak. Now, it seems like a new mindset has set in: Wanting something and being strong enough to take it does not mean that the world will accept it.
The war, therefore, is being fought on the inside no less, and perhaps more than on the outside. Our very makeup is changing from abusive to cooperative, from narcissistic to altruistic.
It hurts, and it will not happen without a struggle, but it is irreversible. This is the path of our evolution toward the purpose of our creation-to encompass within us all of creation. To do that, we must come to care for it, just as a mother encompasses her child through her maternal love.
The struggle to transition from our current uncaring and mean approach to all creations but ourselves, into wise and compassionate beings is called “the war of Gog and Magog” or Armageddon.
Since the war is about our inner makeup, we can fight it within us. If we object to struggling with ourselves over who will rule-the ego or love-the physical reality will force us to choose love nonetheless. However, it will do so by hurting us in a very physical way.
The war in Eastern Europe is nothing compared to what we might have to endure if we resist the process. The horrific descriptions of our sages and prophets hint at it, and we would not want to live through it.
Alternatively, we can fight this war within us without firing a single bullet. The choice is in our hands. All we need is to continue in the same direction that nature is already leading us: toward connection. If we make an effort to care for one another, even though initially we don’t, then we are moving in the right direction. If we try to resolve conflicts not with guns or even legal battles, but by strengthening the care and friendship between us, then we are saving lives and sparing torments from countless people.
In conclusion, let us try to rise above the hatred and see the human on the other side, who suffers too. Let us think that this war was given to us so we would think about each other more than we have so far. After all, were it not for this war, we would not notice one another. Now that it is here, we are no longer indifferent. Although our feelings our currently negative, now that we are aware of them, we can work on them together and turn them around. These are the wars of the Messiah who moshech [Hebrew: pulls] us out of the ego, and into mutual love.

This is literally just an advertisement for the manufacturer. It’s comical people don’t understand something this flipping obvious.

@@conor987 You’re speaking total nonsense. These are still the primary MLRS system (together with the older M270 variant) in service with the US Army.
The weapon advertises itself because the results on the battlefield speak for themselves.
So the US manipulate Putin into starting a war so they could show how good the HIMARS are and sell 500 to Poland? This is all a conspiracy by arms dealers is it? I'm not sure what's worse, the paid for Ruzzian trolls or the Tinfoil hat brigade - your both as bad as each other (if you are not one and the same).
@@shuathe2nd I suggest seeing a psychiatrist if you see “Russian trolls” everywhere, especially when your grammar is indicative of someone who is either a foreigner themselves, or simply poorly educated. As far as the U.S. being the one responsible, don’t be silly and please learn what a strawman argument is. That the US weapon manufacturers benefit tremendously from this and other conflicts, and therefore lobby the government to adopt policies more likely to result in conflicts from developing is obvious to anyone who isn’t a child, but this doesn’t of course put the blame squarely on the U.S. government for the war in Ukraine. Yes, many politicians and foreign policy officials who are influenced by the weapons industry and oil interests promote policies more likely to provoke a war which would benefit those industries. However, had Russia not responded and pulled the trigger to whatever they used for their justification there would still be no war. Each country that ultimately responds with war is ultimately responsible and to blame for that war. Just like the U.S. is fully to blame for the idiotic invasion of Iraq, irrespective of the fabricated reasons used at the time.
how about the above himars us made weapon maybe its more distructive..
Brought to you in association with Channel 4 news and Lockheed Martin
More HIMARS for the Ukrain. Please.
👍👌
Already it's war HIMARS to ByeMars 🤣
Ok, so Himars is making a huge difference and Russian troops are retreating in some areas, but the really big question is; How does this end? I can't imagine Putin accepting a huge defeat without gaining something in return (even though he doesn't deserve it), without doing something desperate like using strategic nukes.
That would isolate Russia even further among other things.
Putin will only use nukes if Ukraine threatens Russian sovereignty, if they kick the Russians out and keep within their borders, he does not have enough power to use Nukes! He will be stopped.
Putin won’t stop, his vanity will not allow it…. It does not matter to him how many Russian soldiers die or how much destruction occurs in Ukraine…. He is a fascist!
The fight will go on until he has accepted defeat. The HIMARS will wipe out his military. Just more time and more weapons needed. It gives the British and Americans an excellent chance to test their weapons.
its not up to putin. putin had to swallow retreat from kyiv, he had to swallow retreat from kharkiv, and he swallowed retreat from kherson, correct? he swallowed every major weapon delivery after a period of nuclear saber rattling of course. "if you provide X, we will use nukes", but then nothing happened.
Thanks for US Support.

If Putin has never considered Ukraine as a real country, then why did he accept the return of the nuclear weapons stationed in Ukraine, after the breakup of the Soviet Union?
50 HIMARS given to Ukraine will make a big difference for sure. But the 16 the Ukrainians have right now *can launch a 96 missile salvo* then run away! So the only real issue right now is ammunition; not launchers.

It has pushed Russia so far, that Russia has gained more territory. So no one understands how Himars helped at all.
" Russia has gained more territory": exactly how many square kilometres have Russia advanced in the last 3 months (and what is that as a percentage of Ukraine?)? Why has the Special military operation entered its seventh month? Why is Ukraine Air Force still operational? Have Ruzzia lost more or less troops than the US did in Vietnam (which US fought over 5 years and lost)? Please answer these basic questions and tell me Ruzzia are winning.
@@shuathe2nd - Simple, what has russia gained? Any military strategist since Tsu Tsu, will tell you that the best position to set your lines is at the border of a major River. Has the Russians reached Dnipro River? Mainly in the deep South where it at all matters since its the mouth of the river. Will Russians push all the way until reach the Dnipro River in the north section? No, why? There is absolutely no point to it. But why?, the Northern section of Ukraine has no way to export anything thru the river anymore. In the near future after a peace agreement has been reached Ukraines Northern section will have to pay Russian taxes or fees to pass thru. Winning 1-0. If you believe Territory is an important issue in today economical world, then you are mistaken my friend. You actually believe Russia is at expanding territory mode? LOL, that is absurd. Russia is massive and in zero needs to gain any more territory for we are not at the age of expansion. The era of expansion died with Germany in WW2. I don't know if you read history, but for Russia casualties is just that, casualties. Do you lose a war by having casualties?, again WW2, read it. But lets says casualties are what draws the line of who is winning, according to CIA, Russia had lost 15k soldiers in the first two weeks of the war, debunked by German intel, were is state that Russia had probably lost up to 2k in the first two months of operation. So, we will not know the exact number until the end of the war and maybe even way after it. But again casualties are not a way to say "oh im winning because more are dying on their side", does not work that way. Why is Ukraine still operational?, In the first two weeks of the invasion, Russia encircled Kiev. The Russian army had waited a week and a half when they were given the order to retrieve. Why? Nobody knows. My mild idea is that the fall of Kiev would had represented the fall of all Ukraine. There was a video, in that week of Zelensky that was staged outside the presidential home, he was in fact in Poland during that time. I mean look at it this way, if Kiev felt and Ukraine with it, Russia will have to pay the bills to maintain the country operational - this is not my wild idea btw this is exactly what Biden said in a speech. It was too highly costly to do so, the order never came instead they cut off the Ukrainian ports. Up to that point, as you can check your facts, Nato was not involved, neither USA. So Russia had other plans.
@@vrrc7686 The Ruzzians want the Donbass because of the natural reserves of gas and the fertile soil, so of course territory is important and to say otherwise is pretty dumb. As for casualties, in WW2 Ruzzia had a younger, growing population and a vicious dictator at the helm who cared not for the life of his countrymen so it didn't matter so much if they lost 10 million or 20 million as they would be replaced, but now you have an older, aging and shrinking population, so while still ruled by a vicious dictator at the helm who cares not for the life of his countrymen, it will have a greater impact on the Ruzzian economy to loose 70,000 young men (this is killed, wounded, MIA, captured). As for your pathetic assertion that Kyiv was about to fall, and so Ruzzia withdraw to prevent a victory as they would then own Ukraine, not sure what you are on, but I am pretty sure Vlad would have taken a victory over Ukraine to install a Beloruzzian style puppet government.. It failed because their army was useless and let itself get blown to bits by javelins and other RPGs, and the Ukrainians don't like the idea of being ruled by a foreign dictator.
@@shuathe2nd Just in, Donbass was declared a Republic, have you forgotten that part?, surely you would think that means absolutely nothing. But unlike Hawaii that was annexed by USA, Russia has declared Donbass a Republic and not a Russian Republic. An independent Republic, so they get to chose themselves after the war what they will become. Natural Gas?, do you even know that Donbass Natural Gas is nearly non-existing? - its major resource its Coal, mercury, salt, and other minerals. Geez dude, at least if you wish to comment do so with facts. Russian economy? Do you live in a bubble? - even Steven Hanke has said the only winner in all this has been Russia. The Ruble alone has gain more strength than the dollar. Dude, what world do you live in? is not about what I wish it was, is about FACTS!, you don't like facts? then sorry mate, you should just come out and say that your believe is that Russia is losing. Good luck on that mate.

Excellent ballanced reporting, so rare these days..!
@Flynn Spunks well rare in the UK - unfortunately... channel 4 is one of the few mainstream outlets in the UK that i can trust... even the BBC has been omitting on the reporting of many issues...
BTW: If you want fairly reliable news coverage on Ukraine - check the RUclipsr "DylanburnsTV", he is currently in Ukraine doing a bunch of very well researched reporting - also debunking a bunch of pro-putin propaganda/talking points
@Flynn Spunks What are your reasons for BBC being your last choice? Sure they have been omitting alot of reporting recently, especially in light of brexit and their narratives have been a bit patchy on foreign affairs - but i would still consider the BBC far from the worst mainstream news outlet here in the UK.

PUTIN: ...."What the FUKK was I thinking!"
yeah i think its safe to say if you gonna go to war you bettr plan things out better, you need allies, huge stockpiles, and well preparations.
Something important to know, for all who are interested in history and/or support Ukraine:
Rus’ ought not to be confused with “Russia”, which derives its name from the Rus’ but historically is a completely different state, which almost all its existence was at war with the Rus’.
Just like the Holy Roman Empire was actually Germany, Russia is actually Muscovy, despite their best attempts to convince everybody otherwise.
Its name “Russia" received only in 1721, when Peter I passed a decree to change Tsardom of Muscovy’s name into the “Russian” Empire (“Russia” originates from Rosia, name used by the Greek Orthodox Clergy in regards to Kyivan Rus')
Under the reign of Cathrine II Muscovites where even punished for continuing to identify as Muscovites, and were forced to call themselves “Russian”.
Lands that “Russia” claims were part of the original Rus’, but actually weren't, are Novgorod, Suzdal, and Ryazan, since in historical texts of XI-XII centuries they are mentioned as separate entities from Rus’. They can be considered parts of extended Rus’, although their culture was distinct from main Rus’.
In 1493 Moscow prince Ivan III appointed himself to be the Great Ruler of All Rus’. No other kings acknowledged that. From that point on Muscovy started to make false claims on Rus’ ownership.
“Russia” is an offshoot of Ukraine and not the other way round, despite what Soviet and “Russian” historians have been trying to say for years. Kiev was a developed cultured capital when Moscow was just another swamp village.
Germany used to call itself the Holy Roman Empire, that didn’t mean they became the Romans, and all of a sudden had a right to claim whole of Italy and its history, but yet, that’s exactly what “Russia” did in regards to Rus’-Ukraine, which is a horrible injustice!
hahaha! Yes, everyone knows the great Ukrainian "historians"))). And Jesus was a Ukrainian, and Buddha))). And the Ukrainians created a computer, and dug up the Black Sea))).
But the facts say that almost all Ukrainian cities were built by Russians during the time of Catherine the Second.
The prince of Novgorod conquered Kiev then it was made capital of the Russian speaking people and was called kievan Rus
Russia can't keep it up, they've blown through their year's defence budget in the first 3 months of fighting and since then blown through 25% of their reserve budget.
Out of that 50% was also seized when Russia started the war so they've got 25% of the their reserve cash left and at the rate they are spending won't be able to fight much longer.
They've used up or had destroyed their more modern weapons so are now mainly using cold war surplus to make up the numbers.
They've had their trade badly cut off and now not only have money running low they have to pay over the odds to get the martials needed to make more weapons as the only countries still trading with Russia will only do it under the table at greater cost.
The Ukraine weapons might be fewer in number but they are more advanced, more reliable and more accurate.
Plus Ukraine is being resupplied where Russia isn't, so once the stockpiles are gone they are gone and each loss of manpower or equipment is something Russia can't replace.
Then there is two of Russia's neighbours joining NATO which has given Putin nightmares and the fact once the war is over Ukraine will be fast tracked membership to stop this happening again.
Even if this ends today Russia will still be sanctioned cutting them off from the rest of world making them a third world country again.
Russia will still have to pay retribution to Ukraine, probably have the bulk of their military dismantled and limits on how much they can have to stop this happening again.
NATO will be on Russia's doorstep and keeping a close eye on them.
The Russian economy will probably never fully recover.
@Dave - about the Russian "budget",and heavy situation. - Wall Street Journal writes Moscow is pumping AS MUCH oil as it did BEFORE conflict in Ukraine and is making MORE money as oil prices REMAIN high, adding that "Russia is SWIMMING in CASH" as it makes $97 BILLION from oil and gas sales in July ALONE, exporting 7.4 MILLION barrels of crude EACH DAY in July!"
@@aerisskyler and that will help the get across the Ukrainian rivers with supply's will it.🤣 Russia gets rich and her troops go without supplies, Bravo
@@kocurik1974 What problem did they have in Iraq?
@@kocurik1974 And the US would have won this war just with airpower before any soldiers even saw an enemy.
@@edwardbernthal160 They are using outdated weapons too that are left over from the cold war.
Russia might still be pumping oil but they are selling it at a loss as is the gas.
The problem with war its that no one talks peace.
Only 8 of the 16 HIMAS left. Fat hope Ukraine
NATO/US should not be "pushing in" and threatening the security of Russia, but rather negotiating peace. Now, in response to this aggression, a real war is on and millions will be without power. More suffering,, follow the money.
What this tells us the very striking and stunning difference between American and Russian technology and now the update and modernize their equipment.
It also informs the world how badly trained the Russian military is and how old and badly made their military equipment is produced.
This is a wonderful gift for the world and especially NATO and any country believing in peaceful coexistence.
It does nothing of the sort...Its Channel 4 telling their own version! If you believe this tripe you are in for a shock!
The Russians have weapons far superior to the U.S! Hypersonic missiles for example. They can not be shot down. They also have the s400 and s500 anti air missiles that are the best in the world. Never under estimate the Russian military even NATO are terrified of them.
@@karlharrison2449 Then why are they doing so very, very bad?
Why is their equipment "falling apart"?
Why are Russian cannon fodder fleeing, deserting and shooting themselves in the leg to get back home.
You are listening to the wrong news channels on Russia's "brainwashing" channels.
Open your eyes.
Open your mind.
Check RUclips videos in "the hundreds" discussing how bad your military and old equipment is.
Also, is it okay if another country invade Russia using the same reason "they made up and used" for invading Ukraine, a country that has also has the right to choose their own destiny just like Russia does. If okay with you, please post where you live so "your city" can be destroyed like Russia destroyed many Ukrainian cities along with murdering and raping women, children and even babies, boys and men.
Oh you must be so proud of Russia right now for all the wrong they're done.
Last, I willll say this. You may be brainwashed. However, remember this. The rest of the world "isn't". And the world sees "clearly" with their eyes "open wide" what your country has done to Ukraine.
@@garyfryer5334 It does "exactly" that.

They haven't pushed Russia back at all, Russia has been advancing. Himars was a threat early on but the Russians have gotten much better at countering them.
Give evidence
Lol...they took 1 village by Karkhiv that it. They've been pushed back closer to Kherson. Their rate of artillery fire is down by 30%. You can go on NASA real time forest fire satellites yourself. Also Ukraine is not stating their losing 200 people a day but 30. Hope you aren't paid per post by Ruble. Your making like 5 cents
You talking to brainwashed people.
Kremlin bot shut up
They are great but very expensive weapons but once they fire their missiles the launcher vehicle can be spotted on radar or by a drone and destroyed.
they shoot from the deep rear, where the Russian artillery cannot reach
that's why it's called the HIMARS... HIGH MOBILITY... You shoot and scoot
better expensiove that rockets that only kill cows and Grass
very expensive weapons ; the more expensive the better!
We never come back !
I'm going to prevent and prevail.
Why did the Ukrainian counteroffensive fail so miserably then?
Russia give up and go home
They can't, they've only collected 25% of their toilet target so far. Sad thing is, they haven't worked out yet that toilets have to be plumbed in - they think you just stick them in a shed and voila......
No.

Yes, the West has reached a dead end in its propaganda.
Soon Russia will finally knock out the Ukrainian Nazis from Ukraine. And these Nazis, armed with Western weapons, will go to the West. They only know how to kill.
Russian tactic
Carpet bombing indiscriminate via artillery
Ukraine tactic
Target Russian artillery
I just imagine if was USA using this weapons to fight Russian
..it is. That's why it's called a proxy war 😂
Usa can't win wars,this is propaganda, Ukraine and west know they have lost, west msm shite.

Putin will hit Ukraine with tactical nuke shortly, it's been coming for last 6 months. Massive escalation is weeks away.
Yes, the West has reached a dead end in its propaganda.

How is supplying missiles to kill Russian forces not an act of war?
I say the same thing when talking about about Lend Lease in history. It is one thing to sell weapons to both sides for a taxable profit when your country is a major arms manufacturer. It is quite another to massively sell to one side and even gift to the one side exclusively. Frankly, I would consider every weapons factory that gives weapons to Ukraine to be a legitimate military target without triggering defense alliances should Russia decide to destroy them as those factories are effectively acting just as much as mercenaries as the Wagner Group or other well known 'defense contractors'.
Attacking Russia with Himars is a bit like slapping them with a wet hanky.
covered in draino; it seems to be doing a good job on their weapons dumps, unless they are just smoking too much.
