There was a video of the destruction of the French tank AMX-13 by the corrected projectile "Krasnopol"
A video of the destruction of a French lung appeared on the web tank AMX-13 with 2K25 Krasnopol ammunition of Soviet design. A short video was posted on the Warlik page! in the social network VKontakte.
There is no description for the video, the video itself shows the shooting of a Krasnopol guided projectile at a target, which is played by a French tank. Particular attention is paid to the flight of the projectile with rotation in the air. Where the video was filmed and at what time is not reported. Judging by the not entirely good quality of the shooting, it may have been filmed back in the 90s of the last century during the demonstration of ammunition by one of the foreign delegations.
Also, the option of showing the projectile to representatives of the Algerian army, which has been and is building French-made weapons, is not excluded. According to unconfirmed reports, the Krasnopol-M shell is in service with the Algerian artillery.
Krasnopol 2K25 is an adjustable high-explosive fragmentation projectile of 152 and 155 mm caliber. The ammunition is equipped with a jet engine and a homing head. Developed at the Tula Instrument Design Bureau for Soviet barreled artillery. It is currently in service with the Russian army in the 152mm 3OF39M (Krasnopol-M) and 155mm K155M variants. The target destruction range is up to 25 km. At the same time, it was reported about a long-range version - "Krasnopol-D", capable of hitting various types of targets at a distance of more than 40 km. The Ministry of Defense estimates the accuracy of the upgraded 2K25 at 95%.
In February 2021, it was reported that the development of a new guided missile "Krasnopol-M2" was completed. The Krasnopol-M2 guided armament complex for barreled artillery was originally developed in 155 mm caliber for export and was supplied to the armies of India and China. Compared to the basic version of the Krasnopol projectile, the new ammunition has a greater firing range (26 km versus 20 km), and the accuracy of hitting small targets is increased (0,9 versus 0,7).
In addition, the Krasnopol-M2 has increased combat power, as well as the ability to use it at any time of the day, in strong winds and clouds.
