New Delhi: USA uses Hellfire Missiles specifically to attack the Islamic guerrilla in Afghanistan on Saturday in response to a suicide bombing at Kabul Airport last week.
A senior US official confirmed that a military drone fired Hellfire missiles on a vehicle in a compound between two buildings after people looked explosive into the trunk.
The special about the missile is that he hires the blade instead of explosives.
The missiles used by the US in the air, called R9x, Inert, Wall Street Journal reported.
“Instead of exploding, the weapon issued hello from the six big blades stored in the missiles, which spread at the last minute to tear the target of the strike, allowing military commanders to determine their target and reduce the possibility of civilians,” it said.
Special missiles were developed for Pinpoint Airstrikes to target terrorist leaders without explosions, drastically reducing damage and minimizing the chances of civilian victims, Wall Street Journal reported quoting officials.
R9x is also known as “Ginsu flying” for blades that can cut the building or roof of the car.
