The Air Force demonstrates the destruction of Shahed using the AIM-132 ASRAAM missile launcher
The Ukrainian Air Force showed a video of the AIM-132 ASRAAM missile launcher.
The video shows how Ukrainian defenders used the system to destroy a Russian Shahed-131/136 kamikaze drone on the night of October 3. The entire installation is not visible in the video, only a part of it. Thanks to this, the military analyst @Osinttechnical managed to identify the system.

As a reminder, information about home-made launchers for AIM-132 ASRAAM missiles in the hands of the Ukrainian Armed Forces appeared in August. It is known that the system is based on the Supacat HMT truck. It can hit air targets at a distance of up to 25 km.
