Ukraine now apparently has HAWK SAMs

На відео – бойова робота американського ЗРК HAWK цієї ночі, який поряд із більш сучасними зенітними ракетними системами союзників, боронить українське небо!

The video shows the combat work of the American HAWK air defense system this night, which, along with the more modern anti-aircraft missile systems of the allies, defends the Ukrainian sky!
We'll have to wait a bit to see clearer daytime proofs of the firing battery, etc.

The 93rd Separate Mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine published a video confirming that the unit is operating Swedish-delivered CV9040 armored fighting vehicles.

Note that all vehicles seen here are equipped with Barracuda multi-spectral camouflage.
Barracuda is pretty good.

Exclamation Re: Question about Ukraine OOB...

Does anyone want to make a guess what this is launching?
Those are very narrow tubes

Could be nets to catch drones. I imagine they would have to be small to be able to unravel correctly, and when fired they would have to be timed for accurate precision since they would be extra susceptible to gravity. Since their probably susceptible to wind effects too, you would have to shoot a bunch of them at the same time to cover a large enough area for them to be effective.

Apropos of the earlier debate; the Bradley has been absolutely mogging places...there's tons of footage of two Bradleys engaging a T-90M and coming out the victor.

Fallout Re: Question about Ukraine OOB...

It looks like a smaller caliber version of the "RAK-SA-12 rocket launchers in caliber 128mm of Croatian manufacture." which the Ukrainians also already have.

The trailer mount from yours looks the same as it vice the smaller tubes rocket tubes (Possibly 70mm or 100mm) in comparison the RAK-SA-12 128mm.

Looks like Blaster shots from Star Wars. They must be using some type of new, high velocity, rapid firing munitions.

Better view of one Ukrainian Bradley showing the armor configuration.
