      With the Turks, it’s unlikely, but with the striped and their minions it’s all the same. It’s necessary to hold the reservists. The title ones also probably jump above the forelock.

        No, I won’t, we will be delivering missiles to these cornets with secret devices like a friend or foe recognition system. They fired a rocket at a Russian tank and a missile was aimed at a western-made tank.

      And if some other rocket beats a tank, will it somehow burn differently on kosher?

      You were immediately "scared" of the 9M133-1 anti-tank missile ... and the "attack" 9M133F-1 missiles are more suitable for the Turks against the Kurds ....

          Duc, and I lived in the "era of the Baby"! When the LNG-82, 9M14 / 14M, BMP-1 with the "baby" were quite modern weapons!

    The Cornet missile is capable of penetrating up to 1,3 m of armor

    Penetration is growing by leaps and bounds from article to article.

      Penetration taken from open sources. 1300mm homogeneous armor. 3m of concrete. What is the problem?

          Doesn’t it matter how much a concrete slab weighing on a person weighs, 1.5 tons or 3 tons? So 1200 mm or 1300 mm penetration, merkava µ4 still will not survive.
