Automobile Vyshka in the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation: Russians crossed agricultural machinery with PTRC "Cornet" (video)

Such "know-how" has been known since the Cold War. However, the practicality of such a decision in the current conditions of fighting is doubtful, experts said. Russian invaders in the context of lack of special equipment invent new solutions, establishing different types of weapons on all kinds of platforms. So, on November 19, a video of a new Russian hybrid appeared on social networks - this time the invaders involved agricultural machinery and anti -tank rocket complex.

Since a full -scale invasion, the invaders have been pioneers in the brazier installation on armored vehicles, lined with car tires, drew planes at Engels Air Base, and crossed various types of weapons. Now a group of Russians was noticed in the territory of Ukraine, which established the calculation of the anti -tank complex "Cornet" in the basket of Autovezh.

The video is noticeable how the lift holds the calculation of the PTRC, which traces Ukrainian armored vehicles - thus a basket is a kind of inspection point. Western experts write in the comments that such a decision may seem unconventional and uniquely "Russian". However, in reality, this concept originates in Germany during the Cold War, although the dynamics of hostilities during that period was completely different.

In those days, a platform with anti -tank missiles above the ground gave a significant advantage, experts noted, as it was difficult to fight such installations because of their location above the terrain or tops of trees. But under the current conditions, the practicality of such a "novelty" remains in question. The fact is that on the one hand it may seem that this solution gives preference, because the field of view of the PTRC operator covers a much larger area than the position on Earth.

In addition, when firing from height, obstacles and natural camouflage are excluded - bushes, trees, wavy terrain. However, in the face of modern war, especially taking into account the nature of hostilities in Ukraine for the last year and a half, the risk of being shot down to the operator is much higher than in the Cold War.

"The widespread use of unmanned aerial vehicles in modern conflicts actually dispelled the concept of" fog of war ", making" transparency of the battlefield "the main factor," experts emphasized. The emergence of punch drones with a first person's "view" function (FPV) gave the infantry a tool that far exceeds the range of firing.
