A video has surfaced showing a strange top-down attack on a moving Russian armored vehicle, but weapon type used is something out of the ordinary.
The munition delivery vehicle can be seen entering frame on the right side of the screen, and then launching a submission down onto the vehicle with great precision. Oddly, the airborne delivery vehicle continues on its flight path after the strike.
Online researchers say they have ruled out Javelin and NLAW strikes as the top-down attack occurs from too high up. Others have suggested SMArt and Bonus rounds, but the trajectory of what is shown doesn't match. Other suggestions included the M93 Hornet wide area munition, XM204 interim wide area top attack munition, and the Phoenix Ghost loitering munition.
