Then hammering the railway distribution system as it is at peak stress trying to

... replace lost shell tonnage across the occupied Ukrainian rail system.

If a lot of shell tonnage is on trains suddenly caught between bridge & rail cuts.

They are sitting duck targets for follow up GMLRS destruction.

And if the Russians sent railway troops to fix all the bridges & rail cuts before sending the ammo trains.

Those troops will be targeted by GMLRS while doing repairs & Russian troops run low of Arty ammo.

"Systemic shock" is a logistical heart attack.

Given nine UA operated GMLRS launchers covering the majority of the Russian occupied rail logistics system in Ukraine simultaneously.

There is little to nothing Russian can do about it, except suffer high casualties.

It looks to me that the only thing that can stop this Ukraine's "Logistical Systemic Shock" is a lack of GMLRS missiles from the United States to execute it.
