17% hit rate is most certainly NOT fucking "successful!" That is a fucking abysmal failure, and a disgrace!!!
THOSE MOTHERFUCKING MISSILES WERE BUILT BY THE MOST OVERPRICED MILITARY INDUSTRIAL MACHINE IN THE WORLD!
The brutally overtaxed American taxpayers paid for that useless bullshit! And then, we gave it away to a sleazy Ukrainian greaseball who is using that completely ineffective weaponry to try to drag the US into a nuclear war with Russia.
A fucking SCUD has better hit performance!
So many motherfuckers pushing for this Ukraine war need court-marshal's and firing squads.
You don't even remotely know what you are talking about. ATACMS was designed for an open battlefield, not attacking a target with serious air defense systems. When applied against the designed-for targets, they work just fine, as "greatawakening99" has pointed out.
So fucking what!? A multi-million dollar missile system that is only good for (maybe} hitting defenseless targets!!! I don't want that useless piece of shit anywhere in our military, much less pay for it!
Which is besides the fact that the fucking Ukrainian clowns just proved a huge ass weakness in US missile capabilities to the whole world! They are laughing at us. Pull the contract for whatever incompetent corporation has been sucking down my tax dollars to build that useless garbage, immediately!
They are not expected to do well in a heavily defended context. Kind of like not expecting a .50 caliber machine gun to do well against a tank. But not the same thing as saying a .50 caliber machine gun is worthless against other targets. It has already been pointed out that it does exactly as intended against less-defended targets---targets that are worth destroying. You have a perfectionist attitude that is completely invalid in weapon engineering.
Would you get rid of all our military firearms because they may not kill an enemy soldier with one shot? I guess so. When nothing is perfect enough, what do you propose to use?
