\n The US-led coalition in Syria is believed to have used a \u201csecret,\u201d highly advanced missile filled with knives to take out two al Qaeda commanders in the country over the weekend.<\/p>\n

The weapon, dubbed the \u201cninja bomb,\u201d fatally struck the two terrorist leaders \u2014 Jordanian Qassam ul-Urdini and Yemeni Bilal al-Sanaani \u2014\u00a0 in their SUV as they travel<\/a>ed through northwestern Syria Sunday night, according to a Fox News<\/a> report.<\/p>\n

But the modern projectile managed to leave the vehicle shockingly untouched in the attack. Video circulating from the scene app<\/a>ears to show the targeted SUV with a caved-in roof and damaged front windshield, with the blast leaving several of the vehicles\u2019 tinted windows perfectly intact.<\/p>\n

The 100-pound missile, formally named the Hellfire R9X, doesn\u2019t explode and instead relies on six knives that are stored inside and spring out moments before impact, The Wall Street Journal reported\u00a0when it first revealed the weapon last May.<\/p>\n

Analysts have speculated that the missile was used in the attack based on the condition of the SUV.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe result [of the R9X] is a much smaller kill radius, which can limit the damage caused by the missile to the intended target area,\u201d Behnam Ben Taleblu, a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) told Fox News.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuch a feature is increasingly needed for counterterrorism campaigns, where the fighting is closer-in, and the environment around the target is more dense and likely to be filled with non-combatants.\u201d<\/p>\n

The weapon can be incredibly precise, limiting unintended casualties, but also requires \u201cextraordinarily accurate intelligence\u201d to be deployed, the Journal reported.<\/p>\n

The CIA and Defense Department began developing the R9X in 2011 and have kept its existence tightly under wraps, the paper said. Experts have only pointed to several attacks against terrorists since 2017 where they believed the missile was used.<\/p>\n

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has accused the US-led coalition, which has been battling extremists in Syria and the Levant for years, of carrying out Sunday\u2019s attack via drone strike.<\/p>\n

The men killed were high-ranking commanders of the al Qaeda-linked Horas al-Din group, Arabic for \u201cGuardians of Religion.\u201d<\/p>\n
