ATACMS on the M142 HIMARS launcher, offering superior range (>500 km vs. 300 km), higher accuracy, and double the loadout (two missiles per pod)
The higher accuracy would mean that the school was targeted directly.
And yes, the article calls it “untested” to make it sound worse but they definitely test those things before attacking people with them. It’s not tested in battle…
I’m with you, tungsten cubes are definitely less evil than cluster bombs… But any weapon used to target a school is evil. (even if negligently).
When Ukraine uses HIMARS to defend themselves from Russia, that’s not evil.
What also really sucks, for me personally, is I did want the UN to intervene in Iran, back when they were machine gunning protestors and Obama was president… Now we have kleptomaniac Donny invading them to steal their oil and willy nilly blowing up schools instead… It’s like when you make a wish to a trickster genie and they give you some cursed version of what you asked for.
This is just an upgraded HIMARS
