Nothing like facing a tank with small arms and grenades. It is sure to ruin your day. But, things are a little more even with a Javelin. It is man carried and small, but it packs a whallop where it counts. You can see video of one and how easy they are to operate. It will not be fun for the Russians who encounter one. All it took for the Ukraine to get these things was political will.
Putin claims there are no Russian soldiers in the Ukraine so he should not be affected by the addition of such a weapon, yet Russia manages to see it in light of an “escalation”. Putting contract soldiers and missiles into Ukraine is the escalation. The Obama Administration called for “proof” of missile launchers and Russian troops almost every day of the week. A long stream of video and photos were surely enough for most people, but not for that White House. Now that they are mostly gone, the proof seems easier to come by.
