Used these in our Fallujah assault to take out structures. You can stand behind the operator as he fires. The CLUE system optics are next level. I can see you from 3,000 meters, zoom in and see your facial hair. Every step people take could see heat signature on the ground, when touching walls or doors, heat is left behind. Very lethal infantry weapon
@@user-di1rj2be7w drones are useless. You can buy wifi jammers online for like $750. Drones will just fall to the ground. A lot of those Ukraine drone videos are fake. When you been to war you can see the fake for what it is. All warfare is deception
@@user-di1rj2be7w But FPV drones are limited in what they can carry where as Javelin will kill any known armor in the world.
The CLU doubles as an outstanding thermal scope & good surveillance tool and still valuable after all its rounds have been expended and I can’t think of another weapon that has that dual use capabilities is the javelin does.
@@user-di1rj2be7wan FPV drone can be jammed. The javelin operates on its own, it doesn’t use radio signals.
During the Cold War NATO knew they were outnumbered by Russian tanks so they developed better anti-tank weapons as a counter. Russia in its "we won WWII" arrogance didn't bother to pay attention.
That's maybe an inaccurate remembering of history. I firmly believe that western systems are more desirable for numerous reasons but the Soviets actually pioneered anti-tank guided missiles and are largely responsible for their proliferation around the world both through arms exports and by inspiring competition from foreign adversaries. Development of the FGM-148 Javelin only really began at the very tail end of the Cold War and entered service 5 years after the Soviet Union dissolved. Before that both sides had pretty similar capabilities offered by ATGMs launched from helicopters, infantry fighting vehicles, and infantry crew served missile launchers. You can think of a javelin as a helicopter ATGM airstrike you can carry in your backpack more than it is a replacement for a TOW, or a Kornet, or Stunga-P missile team which are less mobile, but cheaper to keep sustained for longer.
@@xaiano794because back then they have reject Russia become the Nato member.
My thoughts exactly, while russia masses tanks like the old days, we adapted new ways to win
4,000 a year? That's insane. It was like 1,000 back in 2020.
All that money that people were complaining about going to Ukraine when in actuality the money is staying here to pay more Americans with new jobs to keep up with this demand and the new demand from NATO allies after this war.
The amount of money that we get back in return on our own investment is incredible.

Thanks,VOA.
4000 missiles annually is not many.
but this is potentially minus 4000 tanks and armored vehicles, which is quite a many
4000 Javelin missiles produced per year is more than enough. And it’s just one type of ATGM. We also produce TOW missiles, Carl Gustafs, and AT-4’s
In case of direct war, it turns into a war economy and entire factories can be repurposed to build equipment just like in WW2
@@ashtray2294 there has been a war in Ukraine for a couple of years now, I would have assumed that you might have heard of it, but it seems not.
Thank you
1991, when Serbia started war aggression against Croatia, we didn't receive neither one anty- tank missile to defend our self. 17 000 life's was lost in war 1991-1995. 54 000 people were wounded. That's only statistic for Croatia. Bosnia has even worse number in casualties. If we have Javelin like Ukraine today, war will end in about year or two, and probably number off casualties will be dramatically lower!
amazing
The verdict of Ukrainian troops was that the Javelin is better in long range open field situations but NLAW is better at short range and urban environments.
Pace
Often javelin is mixed with AT4 as seen in the fotage
Es bueno y muy capaz pero por el costo yo creo que los drones lo van a desbancar
Love the Javelin but we as in the US need to stop thinking of the next gen Anti-tank system if we havent already done so. Javelin is great no doubt but it is decades old tech. Plus, there are issues for those of us that have used it before know. Small issues but still impactful.
badass
Did they put new batteries in mine? Just asking, turned out badly last time.
We have a saint with a Javelin before GTA 6 😂
Voice of America 😮 I think I heard a little bit of an accent 😅 No worries, I love your reports regardless 👍 Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦🙏
VoA uses mostly local reporters in their international news broadcasts. They either contract or full on hire local journalists from whatever countries they want to operate in
I bet it is !! Great weapon ! But you could get 250 FPV drones for the price . Even if you allocated 5 to each vehicle ! That's 50 vehicles (vice 1)
There are not that many drone operators in ukraine... these guys using Javelins don't have drone operators assigned to their companies... have you ever tried to fly a drone? It's not as easy as they make it look
Jamming has increased substantially. Only 1/10 drone is getting close enough to hit vehicles these days. Also the turtle tank concept is at least providing some protection. There was a video the other day of a Turtle taking 6 fpv hits and surviving. The jamming makes FPV hits less accurate.
So yes ATGMs still have a roll to play, especially when high value tanks appear on the battlefield. Not to mention the CLU units are the best optics on the battlefield, worth their weight just in additional vision.
Bravo, St Javelin! 🇺🇦🇺🇦 Slava Ukraine 💪
Sure. Video from 2 years ago.
Its a good time to buy Lockheed?
This weapon right here...along with drones...is a game changer on the open battlefield of modern day war....this is one method that caused the russians to withdraw from afghanistan after 10 years....usa was their for 25

@@coldspirit9904 so with that additional advantage US couldn't win in 25 years with it against extremely weak opponents with no factories of their own and no air force, but Ukraine will somehow win against an incomparably bigger enemy.

Is that winning?
@@NJ-wb1cznobody can conquer Afghanistan....and take over the country...modern warfare and weaponry makes it damn near impossible to take over a country since the days of WW2.....Hitler was the last to do it
Why bother with F-16s and tanks when more Javelins would cost less and be mobile.?
But shorter range. An F-16 with Maverick, JADAMs and GBU-12s has a lot more range than a Javelin.
How's a javelin going to take down an aircraft or take out a building? Obviously any idiot with two brain cells to rub together can realize the javelin is not a do all weapon
F-16's are being replaced with F-35's, why not give them to Ukraine rather than scrapping them?
What's important is that we keep pumping wealth from our future directly into the pockets of the elites today.

Here is the God's word,
Malachi 4: 4-6: "Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse."
As we know, John the baptist (Elijah the prophet, Mathew 11: 12-14) was murdered during Herod's "birthday" celebration.
These are his words, Mathew 3: 7-10: "But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire."
Christ-Messiah was executed as "blasphemer" and "rioter" by denunciation of clergy.
Then the betrayer, Israel by flesh, was destroyed for his sins.
Novadays "christians" are happy to have friends among Christ's persecutors. They love to visit temples of cursed land.
The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. This is the reason why herods and hitlers feel good while Christ is persecuted.
"Jesus" means "Jehovah is salvation". This is the name of Christ real christians are hated for.
"HalleluJah" means "Praze Jah" (Jehovah).
Psalm 83: 18: "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth."
But, hipocrites doesn't want to know this.
That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. He has anointed the king, Jesus Christ. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our beloved ones again! :-)
PS. Amos 5: 25-26: "Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel? But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves."
Hebrew pagans still using a star till now...
Slava Ukraini!
Yes, I am jealous!! If someone wants to become very professiant with regard to these, the US Military (or other) should send them to Ukraine to train... They almost certainly have the most experience, even beyond Americans..
This few thousand older ones delivered have range 2,500 m (1.6 mi) they helped but Russian later used their most modern tanks outside its range also mainly at this same time Ukrainians run out of ammo for their Stugna system that have duble range, From smaller anti tanks system Poland delivered in 2022 24,000 RPG-76 nice little thing 1/4 mass of javelin 300mm penetration but quite short range 250 m
Outside of its range😂...like russia knew where every soldiers was that was equipped with a Javelin...
@@bringthepain7341 This is a line war. so effectively - yes. Russia kept it's most advanced armor further than 1.6 miles from the current battle line.
@@bringthepain7341 They do not know but in response to Javelin threat they kept the 3km from Defense lines and later after Ukraine received newer version of Javelins and Restart production of Stegna limited such actions
@@kkrolik2106 Russian tanks and armored vehicles have to advance towards Ukrainian positions. I’ve seen Ukrainians fire off Javelins at armored vehicles that are less than 500m away
So Russia cannot keep their armor 3km away from the front lines. They have to advance towards Ukrainian positions and Javelins can be used against any type of armored vehicle, not just tanks.
The vast majority of Russia’s tanks and IFV’s are very old and don’t have the optics or fire control systems to target anything from 3km away. So throughout the entire war, the majority of engagements occur within a couple of kilometers. Especially when trenches are being stormed
@TelevisionJohnson dude, you act like I haven't seen 100s of videos of javelins killing tanks in ukraine...you been playing to much call of duty..
I did not know that there are Ginger Ukrainians.
Ukraine strong
Ima Catholic. At 0:12 , that's blasphemy. 😅
Advanced manufactured weapons.
Too bad the Russians captured some of the NLAWS and the Javelins
Facts: Until 1991 There was no Ukraine this land is Russia's land. The West won the cold war that collapsed Russia
Russia then had to divined it's land by granting independence to members of Russia USSR. To Ukraine the constitution stated that Ukraine must remain neutral not joining NATO and EU. Then came this Zelensky with Ukrainian overthrown the current elected government then rewrote the Constitution above stated that Ukraine will joint NATO and EU with NATO military bases in Ukraine this is simply a declaration for war with Russia. With NATO EU leaders who are dearly back Zelensky this man feel confident to go to war with Russia as you all see he will go the end with the bless of NATO EU and US tax payers money.

❤❤❤❤ USA
The problem with the Ukrainian army is that they lost a large number of Javelins now in the hands of the enemies, last year many weapons sent by the US were found sold to many countries, who is doing that? The Ukranian generals are now selling those weapons on the black market. This little machine is bloody expensive, especially the ammunition.
In about three months, around the end of September to the beginning of October, the deployment of NATO forces in Ukraine will begin. NATO has already taken measures against a possible Trump election in the US so that the plan is not thwarted afterwards.
And all these ''game changers" can't do jack squat against Russian Army! This is not Iraq!
Yet Russia has lost over 98% of the active main battle tanks. That 300k called up on the first mobilization is pretty much gone. There will be another mobilization of 300k meat shields coming up soon. Not to mention, 10% of the entire air force and 33% of the firepower from the Black Sea fleet (25 of the 80 ships).
You're trying to tell me moving Supply Depots and command and control 300 km back doesn't change the game?

why are us citizens paying for it? ukraine and europe has a lot of gdp...
Would you rather have Russia win the war and become a formidable rival to the U.S.???

so we are paying for a rocket ad, and promotion on it.. and we get 0 returns as citizens... make this make sense... it doesnt.
It's a US based product, made by a US based company, that employs US based employees. Is this explanation simple enough for you to understand?
What return do you get from 12 carriers around the world, 20 nuclear submarines, 120 F22 raptors, ect.. Military bases in middle East, Germany, Japan? Taiwan?
pay your own weapons

How much is that costing the taxpayers?
You can always find money if you want to. A lot of congressman and senators are billionaires. Maybe ask them to take a pay cut???😂
A lot... but not jeveling is that cost much.. is just the rocket.. becuase you can just walk with this weapon and destroin any infatry/tanks... fuel... traposports.. from good range.. SImple.. You dont need risk your life if you need shoot with this weapons, ( and as a human vs Tanks.. this is the best solution) of course we can talk about different types of weapons.. but we need take a look ( What about population is between this countrys... ) But.. You need to focus that Russia need more and more armor.. to do a perfect push... its must be crazy hear drones... rockets,,, mortals,,, ,ati tank mines,, anti person mines.. lot of thinks what can product to deffend Ukraine.. and Russia need to prevent it.. but i dont think they have good plans or strategy.. but what i remeber its cost 250,000 dolars per rocket.. but at this time.. in this year this cost can be more or less.. And if You watch this war you cna see Ukraine doenst use a much this type rockets..
