πŸ’₯Strike of πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ US-supplied 155-mm high-precision laser-guided M712 "Copperhead" shell on concrete fortifications of the Russian Armed Forces on the left bank of the Kherson region.

The M712 is a guided 155mm artillery round developed in the United States in the 1970s as a laser-guided precision strike weapon. Designed to destroy fortifications and armored vehicles.

The Copperhead is equipped with a conventional high-explosive or fragmentation warhead to combat armored vehicles. It can be used by conventional 155-mm howitzers and has a range of 3 to 16 kilometers.

❗️It was first used by the Armed Forces of Ukraine in November 2024 in the Kursk region
