The US Army is invincible for five reasons, writes 19FortyFive. The American publication claims that the United States Army has "one of the deadliest arsenals in the world."

The first "reason" for invincibility is the Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System (GMLRS), which is capable of destroying an enemy from a distance of more than 70 kilometers with 98 percent accuracy. Next on the list is the "heavily armed" AH-64 Apache attack helicopter with 30 mm M230 automatic guns, 70 mm Hydra 70 unguided missiles and AGM-114 Hellfire missiles.

The third in the ranking is the M1A2 Abrams tank, whose shells are "capable of piercing the most durable armor in the world." The fourth place is taken by the air-to-ground missile Joint Air-to-Ground Missile (JAGM), which "helps soldiers on the ground in bad weather and with insufficient visibility."

The fifth is the 155-millimeter guided active-rocket projectile M982 Excalibur, which, thanks to the use of a noise-resistant guidance system using the Global Positioning System (GPS), "can hit the target with just one shot."

"All five types of weapons are certainly deadly, and they are constantly being improved and improved," the publication says.

In September, Breaking Defense wrote that the joint exercises of Russia and Belarus "WEST-2021" had officially ended, leaving behind the "main question" to the Russian army. "The real question with which to begin evaluating the exercises is not what Russia brought with it, but what Russia left behind," the American edition asked.
