The Iraqi Defense Ministry received a new batch of heavy flamethrowers TOC-1A "Solntsek" and transport-charging machines (TZM), the agency reports Messenger of Mordovia.
At the end of March, there were reports on the network that platforms with heavy flamethrowers and heavy vehicles were seen on access railway tracks in Omsk. It is characteristic that “transport-loading vehicles were not made on the chassis of the main combat tank T-90S, but based on the four-axle KAMAZ, ”the agency notes.
Last year, Iraqis have already received a batch of these systems, which have been successfully tested in combat conditions.
“It is known that at the very beginning of the operation of heavy flame-throwing systems in Afghanistan, the TZM was manufactured on the basis of KRAZ - 255B. But then the wheels were abandoned in favor of the tracks. Now, the Iraqi experience with its specificity forced it to return to the wheeled chassis, which is lighter, more mobile, and, accordingly, cheaper, ”concludes the publication.
