Compared to what we're seeing in Ukraine that was some weak ass flying tbh.
No recon for damage assessment, and really poor targeting of weakpoints. The cumulative jet from the shaped charge is not magic. Its like a lance that goes into the target and it must either spall the inner walls into to the crew, or hit a secondary like fuel or ammo.
If you read steel hornets own blog post on it, they say you can hit one crew member in the cab of a truck and the guys next to him may walk away with only a concussion.
You can see them using stabile mode on approach and going much slower than they could be. Then for seemingly no reason when they get to the target they commit immeditately and often hit thick armor. In Ukraine you will usually see them slow down at this point and hit the target precisely, unless there is heavy jamming or they're being shot at. Neither seemed to be the case here.
Reports from the ground suggest that a lot of Israeli military vehicles are empty and remote controlled. The Resistance has been disabling them with FPV and then targeting the IDF troops that are later sent to retrieve/repair.

How do you know that?
> jamming
These are fiber optic ones, so no jamming.
