The HIMARS missiles, which will have destroyed 30 Russian targets, already have tribute music. Ukraine asks for more. Russia responds with kamikaze drones
Taras Borovok, a Ukrainian soldier who had previously written a song about the Turkish Bavraktar drone, released a new song last month, this time with a tribute to these missiles. Hello Mars. [hi-mars]. America’s trusted ally is here. Do you want to meet him?”, they refer to the lyrics of this song.
The “High Mobility Artillery Rocket System” (known by the acronym HIMARS) technology was supplied to Ukraine from the West, largely by the United States of America. These missiles are GPS-guided and have a range twice as long as previously anticipated. They range up to 80 kilometers and have six tubes preloaded with guided missiles.
