Rosoboronexport: TOS-1A heavy flamethrower system hit the top lists of foreign customers

The head of the Rosoboronexport delegation at the Nizhny Tagil RAE-2015 exhibition, Igor Sevastyanov, said that foreign customers highly appreciated the combat experience of using the TOS-1A heavy flamethrower system in Iraq.

“Some of the samples offered by Rosoboronexport are generally in the top list in popularity. Take, for example, the heavy flamethrower system TOC-1А, which our Middle Eastern partners are very interested in. As the experience of the combat use of this system in Iraq has shown, it is ideally suited for local operations, precisely destroying a well-established enemy, ”the newspaper quoted him as saying "Sight".

Sevastyanov noted that the high efficiency of the Russian flame-throwing system allows calling it “tacticalweapons».

“It’s not for nothing that their appearance immediately attracted the attention of all Arab media. And there are grounds for that - the experience of using them showed impressive firepower and the strongest psychological impact on the enemy, ”he added.

In 2014, Iraq received 12 heavy flamethrower systems TOC-1, 6 attack helicopters Mi-28HE, 9 attack aircraft Su-25 and up to 10 helicopters Mi-35M. In addition, the Iraqi military began to receive sets of air defense systems "Pantsir-C1". The total value of the Russian-Iraqi contract is about 1.7 billion dollars.

Rosoboronexport: TOS-1A heavy flamethrower system hit the top lists of foreign customers

To Syria, at least a dozen of them, is urgent and I think that the ardor of "NATO peacekeepers" will fade even more

[just exp]

it will not affect NATO. since they will act from the air.
but on the Igilovites it may well be, but it is worth noting that despite the fact that there are Solntsepeks in Iraq, they lose the war, that is, Solntsepek is not that prodigy that in itself can change the course of the war.

[marlin1203]

Yes, in the hands of a native and a laser blaster - just a tool for cracking coconuts. Nobody says that thermobaric weapons are a panacea. Otherwise, the need for other types of weapons and military equipment would have disappeared (everyone would have chased each other on the "sunshine" and competed, who would suit whom faster ) The question is the competent integrated use of the entire range of weapons, which complementing each other, aims to destroy the enemy.

[just exp]

I still recall articles about Arab-Israeli wars, when Jews threw a lemon on a tank, and Arabs jumped out and threw an entire tank.

And to equip them with the latest electronic warfare systems, so that as a test missiles fired at TOC flew the devil knows where

[just exp]

CBT is not OTRK. it has a range of 3 km, 1A has 6 km, no air defense will help there, even an Israeli "iron" dome will not save you from a volley.

[slavaisrael]

You can not defeat one kind of weapon. The army is a complex. And only in the complex can you win. It is not necessary to have absolutely the entire range of tools. Yes, and it’s unprofitable today. For this, there are universal systems.

[Salavatsky Ministry of Emergency Situations]

And when will we buy? Only the 8 units themselves!
1-I mobile team RHBZ, at least 4 units BM-1.
28-I separate brigade of RCBZ, at least 2 units of BM-1.
70-th separate flamethrower battalion, not less than 2 units BM-1.

This is the same disgrace!

[insafufa]

Back in 2001, in the battles in Chechnya, universal ammunition for the Grads was tested with the same filling that Tosa has the same higher range effect

[just exp]

TOCs have conventional rockets with a thermobaric warhead, such warheads can be placed anywhere, they are not only in the cities, but also in Tornadoes and Hurricanes, moreover, RPO is the same TOS, only manual. but the TOC differs in that the ammunition is cheaper, and in them the emnip of the warhead is larger in weight than on others, and because of the short range the dispersion of the missiles is less, that is, the density of fire is higher.

[IGMIT]

That's for sure, stop thinking about others and about yourself.

And when will we buy for ourselves?

When will we receive a full statement of what and how with these TOS. But for this they need to be "tested in combat conditions." Syria is our testing ground and you have to be stupid not to use it.

If you don’t know, I can tell you that in the first TOS they tested in Afghanistan in the 80s, they were on the Kraz platform, then only they were put on the t-72
1-2 Chechens in the mountains burned out fortified areas if the bassoon didn’t match the range for the aiming range

Solntsepek shells have a very large warhead compared to hail, etc.

We won’t get into fuss at once, we have apparently other tasks, so we are buying planes, helicopters, building ships, upgrading the Strategic Missile Forces, and equipping the soldiers in full. For the time being, we cannot afford to buy each weapon in thousands of units.

[VP]

Few people here understand this. Most are ready to throw trillions with excitement into everything they read about in the next article.
And the question is this: do you want more Solntsepeks (or something else)? Well, name due to which - less than the SU-35 or abandon the frigate, or from the attack helicopter, or reduce the procurement rate of BMP-3, or reduce the cost of electronic warfare, etc.
Those. talking about something "give more" you need to indicate what then give less.
For the budget is not a dimensionless bag.

[yuriy55]

You just +
Do not forget that some other uncles and aunts have their own fat from the sale of weapons. And the profit from the sale of weapons for which it would be possible to produce military equipment for their own needs according to complex convex schemes goes away ... yes, it goes away and disappears, it dissolves in incomprehensible spheres of commerce ...

[klaus16]

The situation is a little unclear: "We delivered to Iraq ...", but as far as I understand Iraq is not an independent state like Syria. Iraq is not cool under the United States. Americans there fought with someone - the result is weak (fact). So there was no need to win - they have an interest there. And that means we have delivered our equipment to Iraq (that is, the States). And also the Shell! It's air defense! UNCLEAR!!!

[VP]

Iraq is a state with its own president, government, army and budget.
Germany is also under the influence of the United States and what, not a country that can buy something on its own or what?

[klaus16]

I say: "not an independent state." That the amerovskaya technique did not work? It turns out that they have no task to win.

[Nord2015]

I do not understand the mourners, who, on any foreign contract for the supply of weapons, start moaning, which is not enough for themselves. One must really look at things. You need to sell too, and the more the better. In addition, the sale of the same TOS-1A systems will lead to the sale of ammunition for it.

Maintenance of equipment for the entire stay is also not worthless!

[cold_22]

Well, but at one time we were actively criticizing these systems-ineffective, the range was not that, etc. The war put everything in its place, skillful use reveals the specifics of this machine, as a result, the top list.

[31rus]

Weapons are good for suppressing all kinds of ISIS, the Taliban, etc., but to call a miracle weapon directly is too much, why they wouldn’t experience BMP and if they would have disappeared or not, and you can try the TOS for the Arabs on a wheeled chassis

[tomsk]

I think that first you need to put these installations in the troops of the Russian Federation and only then sell them!

[VP]

Pay for delivery?

It is impossible, otherwise they will impose sanctions for inhuman methods of warfare !!!

[nail]

We need to sell first-class military equipment only to our allies. It is very likely that selling equipment to Iraq will fall into the hands of the Islamists.

[Max40]

Guys, can you tell me. I always thought I was looking for the answer to my question, and so. If in a friend (God forbid) a war begins between Russia and someone else (such as NATO). So the factories will be making military-quality equipment to us, as it was in the USSR in 1941-1945 (for thanks), or first money and then goods.

[katalonec2014]

Strategically important enterprises will immediately come under the full control of the state, just like our cars, of course, suitable for war, jeeps, pickup trucks, trucks ... otherwise, the owner may even live in London and he’s fighting who he’s fighting with whom, and in the garage do not do anything.

[voyaka uh]

Iraqi army successfully used these flamethrowers
systems during the assault of ISIS strongholds.
Conventional methods (artillery + tanks + infantry) Iraqis storm
Cities do not know how (and do not want).
And the use of flamethrowers allows you to smoke fighters
from the basements and then move forward.

This is their (TOS-1A) purpose and application. With a relatively short range, a very impressive effect. And by the usual methods, not only Iraqis cannot storm cities (do not want to?). This is troublesome ...

It is well said that you need to sell more of your weapons. Flamethrower systems - great. Air defense systems - great ...

And he cannot, neither will I. But Miller with his salary is easy ...

[VP]

For example, to the squad ..
1,8 billion dollars that Iraq pays for the supply of our equipment is more than the annual budget of the region in which the user lives Tomsk.
Those. more than the annual maintenance of all doctors, teachers, authorities, state employees, construction and maintenance of roads and much, much more for the whole area.
Refusing? We don’t need this money, is this all garbage frivolous?
Another example: the cost of nuclear submarines of project 955 is about a third of this amount. Again, bullshit, nafik us these Iraqi?
