Russian propaganda presented a military bathing and laundry complex as a destroyed MRLS HIMARS
The Russian military does not give up trying to figure out HIMARS, and the Russian Ministry of Defense has once again "destroyed" an American multiple rocket launcher system.
What we know
At the beginning of July the Armed Forces of Ukraine denied information about the loss of two HIMARS launchers and a warehouse with ammunition. The Russian Defense Ministry did not stop there and a week later claimed that the transport and loader vehicle had been destroyed. But there is a nuance. Such a vehicle does not exist.
Even so, Russian propaganda decided not to take an operational pause and immediately reported again on the elimination of the multiple rocket launcher. But, as it turned out, there was again an unfortunate misunderstanding. It turned out that it was not HIMARS, but a Ukrainian military bath and laundry complex based on a ZIL-131.
Thus, we have four "destroyed" HIMARS multiple-launch rocket systems. Not a bad addition to the thousand Bayraktar TB2 drones shot down.
