The 19th Missile Brigade "Saint Barbara"[1] is an artillery formation of the Ukrainian Ground Forces, based in Khmelnytskyi.
During the two years of the war, a total of about one hundred missiles of the "Point-U" complex with various combat units were launched to perform various tasks.
Strikes were planned along the route of advancing units to target places where the enemy was likely to be located (dominant heights, mounds, road intersections, etc.)
[3] According to the assumption of InformNapalm, the T-72BA tank that was destroyed in the base camp of the 21st motorized rifle brigade of the Russian Federation west of the village of Kumachevo during the battles for Ilovaisk, could have been hit by a rocket strike of "Points-U".
[5] In August 2016, volunteers of the international Informnapalm community checked information on the use of 9K79-1 "Tochka-U" tactical missile systems and 9K58 "Smerch" multiple rocket launcher systems against units of the Russian Armed Forces in the summer of 2014 and found certain coincidences between the known losses of the Russian military and possible launches of "Point-U" missiles.
