st. javelin

A personification of the FGM-148 Javelin that began to appear on social media following the 2022 Russian Invasion of Ukraine. Ukraine had received hundreds of the anti-tank missiles in the lead-up to the invasion, which would prove to be highly effective against Russian armor. Because of this, social media observers began expressing joking religious reverence for the weapon. Saint Javelin is usually portrayed as a variant on the Virgin Mary, with her holding the launcher instead of the infant Christ.
