Rocket ammunition has a limited warranty period, but the Ukrainian military uses them even after, how does it end. So, in the Donetsk region, the Armed Forces of Ukraine used the American anti-radar missile AGM-88 HARM, whose expiration date has expired 25 years ago.
It is reported by the RIA Novosti agency with reference to its own correspondent..
This fact came to light after, how local citizens found the engine of a fallen rocket. It turned, that the warranty period for this ammunition has long ended. Looks like, the product failed to capture the target and self-destructed.
Marking, stored on the engine, points, that the American military industry manufactured this ammunition in the distant 1991 year, and already 25 years, How is it considered unusable?.
On the criminal irresponsibility of the Ukrainian military, leading to unpredictable consequences, many facts show. For example, recently two air defense missiles, issued by the APU, ended up on the territory of Poland near the village of Przewoduv near the border with Ukraine. This arrival led to the death of two civilian Polish citizens.
AGM-88 HARM anti-radar missiles are capable of speeds up to 2,28 thousands of kilometers per hour. The maximum range of their action in case of application from high altitudes - 100 kilometers. Author:Sergey Kuzmitsky Photos used:https://en.wikipedia.org/US Department of Defense
