The Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) continue to target key positions of Kiev forces in different directions of the front using Kh-38 missiles.

And on June 13, a video surfaced online showing a Kh-38 strike against a multi-story building occupied by Ukrainian troops in an unknown direction.
The Kh-38 air-launched missile has a range of 40 kilometers and carries a warhead weighing 250 kg. The basic version of the missile is guided via a GLONASS-aided inertial navigation system. Other versions with semi-active laser, active radar and imaging infrared seekers were developed.
The missile is also the base for the Kh-36 Grom-E1, a tactical cruise missile with a range of 120 kilometers, and the Kh-36 Grom-E2, a guided glide bomb with a range of 50 kilometers.
The Kh-38 missiles are typically fired by Su-34 fighter bombers. However, the missile can be launched by other warplanes of the VKS, including the MiG-29, Su-30, Su-35 and Su-57. Recent reports even revealed that the missile can be launched from upgraded Ka-52 helicopters.
The VKS has been mainly using the precision-guided missiles to take out key positions of Kiev forces, vital bridges near the front and high-value military equipment, like radars and air defense systems.

it’s the russian air space forces. as main sponsor of the xoxol space program, they are trying to support the ukrie astronauts. sending them to space on a daily basis.
i saw footage of ukronazis that went flying like ‘evel knievel’ after a russian air strike lmfao 🤣
i saw it too. one of them had a swastika mounted on his helmet like a whirly thing and tried spinning it like helicopter blades so he could keep flying but came down crashing anyway.

pripadá mi to tak, že ruský vojenský priemysel teraz rastie. dokonca modifikuje svoje bojové zariadenia a zdokonaľuje ich bojovú účinnosť. pritom koza iba dodáva to čo má a už ako sa ukazuje nemá toho veľa. preto stále stupňuje svoje dodávky v tom smere, že dodáva novšie vybavenie. staršie typy im už došli a tak musia dodávať to čo im ešte ostalo na sklade. a ostali im iba tie ktoré sú modernejšie. svetu mier!!!
russia is relentless with the nazi eradication and the russians are on standby in cuba with weapons ready to go, need to eradicate nazis where ever they are
them’s mighty pretty missiles. shame to waste them on ukraine’s corrupt mafia shithole.
wouldn’t want to be the french officers or ukronazis inhabitants in that wreckage but i guess some people just can’t get enough. looks like the thousands of bodybags will continue since misfit7 rejected again any peace proposal. world is looking at the zionist isreali genocidal maniacs and its western counterparts and shaking its head.
