Here's What We Know

The information was shared by the British publication Independent. We are talking about several dozen launchers. Thanks to them, the AFU can use Brimstone missiles to hit ground targets. Wolfram launchers were specially developed for the Ukrainian Armed Forces at the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Russia. By the way, the Ukrainian Armed Forces received Brimstone missiles last year. During the first stages of the war, Ukrainian defenders used missiles with homemade launchers.
