The TOS-1 is a Soviet 220mm 30-barrel or 24-barrel multiple rocket launcher and thermobaric weapon mounted on a T-72 tank chassis. The TOS-1 was designed for defeating enemy personnel in fortifications, in open country, and in lightly armoured vehicles and transport. First combat tests took place in 1988-1989 in the Panjshir Valley during the Soviet war in Afghanistan. The TOS-1 was shown for the first time in public in 1999 in Omsk.
Designed to complement the T-64, the high-production Soviet T-72 was first built in 1971 and first seen in public in 1977. This medium tank is a combat vehicle with cross-country maneuverability. Powered by a V-12 diesel engine that can run on various fuels, the T-72 can be fitted with two fuel drums for additional range. Its low, rounded turret mounts a 125mm smooth bore gun capable of penetrating the M1 Abrams' armor at up to 1,000 meters. It can sustain direct hits from the M1 at a 2,000 meter range. Armed with anti-aircraft machine guns, the T-72 can also destroy low-flying targets. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
