Russian Armor Smashed by FGM-148 Javelin Missile
Published 2 years ago
Ukrainian drone footage recorded in the Donetsk region of Ukraine captures the moment an FMG-148 Javelin Missile impacts with a piece of Russian armor.
Following the impact, the Russian crew can be seen bailing out of the tank and executing a hasty bump plan with the vehicle next to them. It's unclear if all of the crew members survived the attack.
For those of you out of the loop, a bump plan is the process of moving troops and equipment to other vehicles when one or more other vehicles has been disable or destroyed. A full bump plan usually involves destroying sensitive equipment that must be left behind, such as radios, munitions, or blue force tracking equipment. In this specific video, it does not appear as if the Russians have a full bump plan, but are instead just getting on the nearest still operational vehicle in order to escape the situation with their lives.
