BREAKING: The US Will Provide Cluster Munitions to Ukraine
Edit: I inadvertently labeled and described the DPICM as the “Dual Purpose IMPROVISED…” when it should be labeled as IMPROVED. Thank you to the community for pointing that out.
Here's JUST ABOUT (there's plenty more) everything you need to know about cluster munitions ahead of the US sending them to Ukraine. @ronnieadkins breaks down some critical points. Cluster munition like DPICM might not be illegal for Ukraine to use, and Russia uses them, too, but they might not be great for Ukraine's fields after the war.

They only just finished clearing up all the mines and unexploded cluster munitions used in the Falklands conflict, and that was 30 years ago and a _much_ smaller scale conflict.

Cluster munitions won’t be a problem much as the huge amounts of mined fields in Ukraine. I don’t think people comprehend how bad the situation with mines is in Ukraine
As a former artilleryman, for clarity I wanted to mention that DPICM is available for 155mm systems and are used with M777's, the system I worked with. I suspect that Ukraine would be receiving the 155mm variants, as they both shoot farther and hold more submunitions.

To be fair the amount of mines that the russians have pumped out, using these munitions at 80/20 split explosive being the higher , I still think the extra clean up time is worth the risk. Great way to hit trenches and build ups quickly and make note of where all clusters were used so the clean up is guided to the square mile.

The block 1 and 1a would be extremely useful in destroying the Berdyansk and Saki airfields. The Ka-52s are parked in the open in the Berdyansk airfield and the Saki Airbase in Crimea is where their Sukhoi bombers are. Before the Kherson counter offensive, remember when that very airbase exploded?
Very informative. great work.
outstanding educational piece !
I worked on MRLS related work back in the day. They showed us the video on the effectiveness of the M77 submunition and the M26 rocket.... It was terrifying. The M77 can penetrate up to four inches of armor. " The M26 tactical rocket warhead contains 644 M77 dual purpose improved conventional munition submunitions which can be deployed to cover a 0.23 square km area. The average ground pattern of a 12-round ripple, with some overlapping of warhead patterns, varies from about 120,000 to 200,000 square meters, depending upon the range." 644 bomblets from hell.

and it was, but there is a difference - at the beginning, Russia used a very small number of troops with a very large number of armored vehicles, because there were so many personnel Now everything is not so, now the group has become much larger and there is a front, respectively, there are simply no columns that can be ambushed, they are all behind the front Well, Russia has even more cluster ammunition than the United States has (Russia has more artillery and different types of shells, but fewer aircraft, different doctrines). If such ammunition starts to be used, then Russia will simply do the same thing only in much larger quantities. That is why these munitions were not allocated, it would have made the vast territories of Ukraine sown with tens of millions of unexploded submunitions. Now it looks like it will become a reality.
Great video lots of info 👍 👌 😀

Learned a lot here. The problem with clusters as it is mentioned is that some stay in the ground for years and is not cleaned up or blows an innocent person's leg off. That's where the banning came from. I guess that more with older cluster bombs, not sure. Can clusters set off mines?

It shouldn't even be mentioned with leaving millions in a jungle knowing you will never clean them up. I other words - It's not that the documents are classified.

A country using it on it's own land to survive against an enemy using everything from thermobaric weapons to torture chambers has absolutely zero moral reason to be denied. Those even help clear minefields. Suffering by an invading army isn't a bad thing.

It's an f'ing war crime thus why it wasn't given before... they kill/mame more civilians post war than enemy forces during war... they clearly but also lay mines so what are you on about... it's also well known nato and corrupt ukr caused the war not rus... you don't have to be pro rus to find this out.. we in US if anything should be bombing corrupt ukr not supporting it especially after all of ukr war crimes during and before this war sides from causing it in the first place

Ukraine would be thrilled to use these weapons in Donbas. You see the Kiev regume and its supporters from central and western Ukraine don’t see their countrymen in the east as Ukrainian, they don’t even see them as human. So they were to suffer and die for decades to come from unexploded ordinance, infesting, their land and cities, that would make their Nazi loving hearts so so happy. Zero effort, lingering genocide.
I was initially very supportive of Ukraine defending its sovereignty. I became less supportive when they instituted the anti democratic policy of conscription ( just like Russia did, no surprise there) and, as much as I dislike Israel’s conscription program they apply it equally whereas Ukraine only applied it to men. That they are accepting and using/ going to use munitions like this that a big part of the world condemns puts them even more on morally questionable footing and as the support for Ukraine was already becoming an issue here in the States I would imagine that many more moves like this may result in a big effort of the American people to cut off support for Ukraine.
Crazy war. If you told me a year ago that we were giving ukraine cluster bombs and F16s, i wouldn’t have believed you. At this point, i’m very curious what we’ll be giving them 6 months from now.

What freedom? The opposition was not allowed to run last election, and then all those parties were banned and leaders jailed. And now all elections have been suspended permanently. You are not allowed to speak Russian in public under very real threat of immediate violence by state sponsored Nazi thugs. Nobody wants to take away Reichkraine’s independence. All the people of Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk want is to be able to vote on where they live, because the Kiev government has murdered them when they dare protest for being treated like shit for such a petty complaints, like being shot down in the streets for speaking their own language. They just want to hold a simple vote on whether or not to stay in Ukraine. It’s called democracy and it’s a fundamental Western value. Stop committing genocide and hold a few elections that’s it.

I get the problem with there being a danger of unexpded ordinance to Ukrainians, but I'm sure they would probably prefer unexploded ordinance on the ground, than Russian troops actively pillaging their cities, towns and villages. Regardless of how harm comes to anyone in Ukraine, all the fault lays at the feet of Putin and those who support him, or give him comfort in anyway.

Any proof of the Russians pillaging or is it just from the Talking Heads on the news media to get their shit from the Ukrainians who are only allowed to speak state approved propaganda? you know the same people who told you about the ghost of Kyiv, who never existed. Or what about Lyudmila Denisova who came up with fantastical stories of mass raped by Russians that never happened? Or what about the mayor of Mariupil who used psychic vision to see what was going on in an encircled city He was hundreds of miles away from that had no telecommunications? Or what about the guy who claimed two nights ago it was definitely the night according to so-called captured phone calls Russia was going to blow up the nuclear plant? Nazis lie.

Well, if you blew up your capital with a thermonuclear bomb because there are hostile troops, then you cannot put all the blame on these troops. It's the same with other types of weapons, there is a limit to when this argument can be used. Cluster munitions out of scope due to catastrophic future consequences
Ask : Who has the greater supply & delivery system ?
I remember in BNCOC call for fire class asking for DPICBM instead of DPICM hihihihi. A little over kill.

The difference was our troops in Iraq or Afghanistan were not defending themselves against an organized army in a battle fields.

Thats my concern with all these munitions. No matter who wins the war people will still be dying from it decades later with all these unexploded mines and bombs. Can you imagine being afraid to plant wheat in a field because it might explode? A lot of people wont have to imagine.
russia uses them why not Ukraine, all is fair in war . . . if the US were invaded, we sure as hell would use them. the American people would demand it.

They win ..... hahahaha .. what drugs u on ??
How many square kilometres can clusters get ?
They have to find mines to clean up,so I guess they can clean those up also.
I heard a point someone else raised that I thinks key: Ukraine would be the one using cluster munitions with the risk they bring post war. It would be Ukraine leaving unexploded ordnance in the ground and their populous getting maimed and killed etc by it. It would be them doing it to themselves. So if they want to make that choice for themselves we can let them have the option. This is assuming they eventually win. So morally it’s a bit different to versus a country dropping cluster munitions on another country and then leaving them with decades of their children getting killed and maimed from bombs left all over the place.

where cluster munitions are used, the least loyal population of the current government lives, I think that’s why Ukrainian politicians are not worried about the consequences These cluster munitions have already been used in major cities, there are already civilian dead who stepped on them
