The 54th Mechanized Brigade released the video. The Attack UAV Company "Divine Punishment" used a Shark reconnaissance drone to adjust the fire of Ukrainian soldiers at a Russian military training base in eastern Ukraine. Two M30A1 GMLRS rockets with shrapnel warheads struck a truck and a cluster of infantry.

Thanks to the aerial detonation of rounds, it was possible to cover a large area of the training ground with ready-made munitions. However, several groups of infantry managed to leave the area after the first explosion.

The KAMAZ army truck of the Russian military was allegedly completely destroyed by a close rupture of the warhead with 180,000 ready-made tungsten carbide fragments. Previously, unarmored trucks, even at a greater distance, received a significant amount of debris, which disabled nodes and often brought the vehicle to a state beyond repair. In particular, one of the reports by Russian propagandists showed the visual consequences of such an explosion, after which the cab of KAMAZ-53501 alone received about a thousand holes.
