Ukrainian Soldier Nails Tank with Matador
Published 6 months ago
This footage depicts a soldier from Ukraine's 115th Seperate Mechanized Brigade. In woods near the village of Lyman Pershyi, in Kharkiv, he fires a 90-millimeter Matador anti-tank round at a Russian tank. Visual from a nearby drone confirms the hit- an admittedly nice shot, through the trees.
While some would assume Spain as its originator, the Matador was actually a joint development of Germany, Israel and Singapore. It is currently being fielded in both the Ukraine and Gaza conflicts.
