Footage captured by a Ukrainian Soldier earlier in the day shows an SPG-9 team shelling distant targets with guidance from a forward observer.

For the purpose of Ukrainian Operational Security, we won't be posting the location of this engagement. What we do know is that the footage was released shortly before our last website outage, and it appears to have been recorded early on in the day. The interesting thing to note in this video is the use of what appears to be HE rounds, which have an extended range when compared to the standard-issue SPG-9 rounds. This would also explain the higher-than-normal angle of fire being used by the Ukrainian troops, and the utilization of what sounds like a forward observer.

We're aware of the on-going issues with our site back-end. We're not entirely positive what the cause of the issue is yet. For our own protection, we've increased our site security. You may get notifications from Cloudflare, but we're hoping this will dramatically decrease some of the suspicious activity we've been seeing on our backend.
