Belarusian military demonstrated a "flying grenade launcher"

The Belarusian TV channel VoenTV showed the exercises of special units of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Belarus, during which a new and unusual weapon - UAV with anti-tank grenade launcher.

As reported on the channel, the exercise took place at the Losvido training ground in the Vitebsk region, where samples of the latest equipment and weapons, including the above-mentioned drone, were also demonstrated. The characteristics of the new UAV are not disclosed.

The UAV shown was created according to a quadrocopter scheme, the name of the anti-tank missile launcher was not disclosed, but judging by the appearance, the installation resembles the RPG-26 Aglen developed by the USSR one-time anti-tank grenade launcher designed to destroy tanks and other armored vehicles, as well as enemy infantry, which were seated in light fortifications.

Watch from 6 minutes

The use of RPG-26 on a UAV is quite possible, since he has practically no recoil when fired. The grenade is fired from the barrel with a special powder charge, which is completely burned. After the departure of the grenade at its end, stabilizers are revealed, which balance it in flight.

It’s quite an interesting development! It’s cheaper than installing a tank, especially if the shot is fired from above, that is, into the most unprotected part of the tank. Bravo! The goal of inventing cunning is!

[Shurik70]

at 6:23 a double-barreled version of a flying grenade launcher is also visible.
Cool invented!
True, at 6:37 a shot from a grenade launcher is somehow not natural. Like a cracker. There is not even an exhaust behind. Probably the show was loaded with fireworks.

Damn, that's what I think the other day a strange crow flew nearby

militia in LDN would

[Yaro Polk]

Rather, they will equip ATOshnikov with them, while the little brothers send them grub, toiletries, underpants, socks, .... and plus this is a stupid recent statement by Usatoye about the assignment of Victory to the Second World War by Russia.

[viralig]

Well ATOshnikam he toss such a magician. Regarding the assignment of victory, there was something to blurt out on the doge. Moreover, the victory parade as such is not held in Minsk. And if it is carried out then with tractors and toilets. And on Independence Day we’ll show the technique. You might think that they fought in the Great Patriotic War on tractors and toilets, and gained independence during the collapse of the USSR - by active combat.

[Greg Miller]

Starting in 2014, Russian banks have additionally capitalized their Ukrainian subsidiaries (donated just like that) for $ 8 billion ... That is. in fact, Russia is the main sponsor of Russophobia, and Belarus is guilty, which sold grubs and panties with socks to Khokhlov ... You guys either remove the cross or put on your panties ...

[sapporo1959]

So why are you explaining this to the casseroles? They have their own drums in the head knock. Knock, knock .. and then they write about socks and underpants ..

[Maz]

Hmm, the aiming range of 170 meters? The aiming range of the AKM is 800 meters, and at 200 meters you can shoot down heads from matches from an open sight. And it’s a pleasure for an infantryman to get into such a bandura. And the "shell" will make a sieve out of it. Doubtful pepelats, but a good idea ... Cho thread another thread on it

[Sergey ippon]

with akm at 200 meters?
match heads?
Ndyaya - at least you blurt out this before - take an open sight and look at 100 meters.
from ak 74 I get into the boxes open at 100m, but it’s not easy, very difficult.
not every good shooter can.
and such tales. Don’t take a cold, the whole pillar will cover 200cm by 10 meters, and the tree’s trunk is not weak.
even with svd a good sniper for 500 works, there are very few of them.
there are individuals - I saw how I worked at 800 at competitions on a balloon inflated, I still do not believe it.

[Shurik70]

Just the topic of the article:

At a distance of 100 meters, the average accuracy of the first AK-74 shot “had a vertical and horizontal dispersion of 4 cm.” When fired from AKM, this figure increased to 6 cm

In general, strike UAVs are needed for this - to enter the danger zone and make a shot without risking the pilot. So the danger of enemy fire for UAVs is a regular situation.

[loki565]

The idea is very interesting, only you need to deploy an RPG to beat from top to bottom, from the top he will break through any tank, here the militants throw ordinary grenades with excellent results. I advise our specialists to take a closer look at this device)))

[Dezinto]

They evolve ...... it remains to come up with a sky-no. Although there are already neural networks, it remains to connect drones to them. And it all started ..... They just don’t like us ..... leather useless ....

Well, people run away! So a large area can be covered.
In general, they will be more visible to robots how to assemble themselves.

It would be April 1, we’re kidding together!
At the category of "weapons for the poor" stick, talent and imagination to show!
It looks like a duck, for fun. Consider \ evaluate the criteria - price, effectiveness, need, etc. sho it does not pull.

[Thrall]

What kind of jokes can there be? Due to the absence of Chubais, Rogozin and others in the Belarusian government, our military-industrial complex, tractor engineering and mechanical engineering have risen to an unattainable level for neighbors

Well, yes, only I would like to look at the economic component of this issue.

A duck is not a duck ... but what happened at the time at the Khmeimim base showed to some extent the effectiveness of such weapons ... not to destroy, but at least damage the same plane or otherwise

[rocket757]

No, no, it was a makeshift (conditionally) production of the classic version of an airplane bomb drone.
While similar at dill showed! RPG-7 with wings ... fl can say rockets \ granot carrying drone.
The most important price-effectiveness ratio or necessity!
Recall that during the siege of Port Arthur, naval miners used a useless supply of artillery shells to defend the base, because they did the mortar.
Does it make sense to sculpt a grenade launcher for a drone? Is there a cheaper and more effective method?
I’m a techie, but I have never neglected the economy either, I don’t believe Schaub. Such a homemade product has prospects. Belarus seems not to be under siege, and the military-industrial complex is quite normal. there is!

Belarusian dagger

[Deune]

Just for the sake of interest, if he fires a combat charge, will he lose stability in flight? Or is it a one-time complex? If so, is it not easier to create kamikaze? I am not an expert, because your opinion will be interesting.

[gippernano]

In my opinion a competent little thing. The soldier sits, does not protrude, and ruins the expensive equipment, and the manpower of the enemy.

[ded100]

Right now the Ukrainians will find out and the javilins will be screwed to drones!

[Jerk]

Yeah, delivery to the warehouses of New Russia for bank transfer

[Igor V]

Now Rygorych will offer the Chinese - they are his main partners.

[Sheff333]

In Russia, they are also the main partners.

[sapporo1959]

Not the word that the main words! The most important! The Chinese abstain in the vote, and in Russia is already a national holiday. China is with us! But as with us, so the Russians already have verbal diarrhea ...

[igorspb]

And how to show integrity on a drone? Where to watch?

[Sergey ippon]

on the tablet, everything is in full view.

[igorspb]

That is, if the noob operator in the COP, the breeze blew or a delay in signal transmission - then a shot at milk?

[APASUS]

Aiming range, m 250
Range of a direct shot at a target with a height of 2 m, m 170

With these characteristics, I want to see how much this UAV will hang in time in the air

why would he hang in the air for a long time?

With such an aiming range, he needs to hang in the air for at least an hour.

Soon the Kalash will fly. Flocks and schools.

More like the result of an unnatural connection between Carlson and Freken Bock.

[suhov17]

No matter how many show-offs in Russia beat, that their planes are the most aircraft-friendly and the helicopters, the most helicopter, they will not let them get close to a motorized convoy, field headquarters or warehouse, because they can be found hundreds of kilometers away, and even in conditions of Belarusian wooded often you don’t see where the enemy is and where he is shooting from. And such a drone, between trees and bushes, where it is necessary to fly covertly and who needs to be blocked. And after that, if it falls, it’s not a pity, it’s worth a penny anyway, not like aviation, artillery or a tank. Afghanistan, Syria and Donbas prove that heavy weapons are mostly destroyed by light, cheap weapons, although it certainly is not a panacea.
And at the expense of the ATO, Belarus did not sell to Ukraine and did not give more than one barrel and a cartridge, unlike Russia, which, despite the war, is Ukraine’s main trading partner.
Therefore, first pass the words through the brain, if of course it is.
