Popular Mechanics: The Buratino Russian flame-thrower system "can incinerate eight city blocks"

Popular Mechanics admired the live-fire shots of the Russian Buratino flamethrower system made during large-scale exercises of the troops of the Southern Military District in the Volgograd Region, noting that “this installed on tank a rocket launcher can incinerate eight city blocks. ”

The material states that the Buratino flamethrower system is a representative of thermobaric missiles of "air-fuel" weapons systems. The authors also talk about the principle of its operation: when a rocket hits a target, a cloud of combustible liquid is sprayed, after which it is ignited.

“The result is destructive and consists not only in the fact that the explosion turns out to be more powerful and with a longer shock wave of increased temperature and force, but also that all oxygen is absorbed in the immediate vicinity of the object. This creates a partial vacuum, "- quotes an excerpt from the article RIA "News".

According to the authors, the set of technical characteristics makes "it weapon horrifying when used against infantry or military men hiding in bunkers or caves, and a volley of 24 missiles completely covers the rectangle 200x400 meters, making it "hell on earth for those who are inside."



The development of the Buratino fire-throwing system was carried out by the specialists of the Omsk Transport Engineering Design Bureau. In 1980, it was adopted by the army of the USSR, and in 1988-1989. for the first time participated in hostilities in the territory of Afghanistan.

To whom Pinocchio, and to whom Pinocchio Karlovich!

The trick is not only in how Pinocchio behaves during the show, but also in the fact that after a real combat use in Iraq, Omsk has a line of buyers from the Middle East. They say that now it is one of the bestsellers.
This is the real combat effectiveness. Let's hope that our BDKs are not only being transported by APCs to Syria, but also Pinocchio.

For Arabs, the ideal weapon is big, it looks brutal and you don’t really need to aim!

And where is 8 city blocks.

[tlauicol]

apparently, one city block is 25n50m - less than a hockey court But it doesn’t matter, the loud headline is important

[Midshipman]

Actually, 200x400 is eight squares of 100x100, such normal city blocks.

apparently, one city block is 25n50m - less than a hockey court

The layout and size of the quarters are different in different cities. For example, in Washington it will cover 4-5 quarters.

[Terminolol]

And in Tolyatti and half a quarter is not enough

[demo]

So there are different quarters.

[siberalt]

Once upon a time, a long time ago, the construction of cities was carried out in blocks, usually square with the side 100 m. We even ran the 100-meter in school. Now, of course, this is not so. 100x100 = 10000 sq.m. 200x400 = 80000 sq.m. From here and 8 quarters.

Read carefully. Near the object and in the immediate vicinity oxygen is burned, which creates a vacuum, here you have eight blocks.

This weapon in the Soviet Union was not created for the Arabs, but as the most effective weapon for the destruction of military force and equipment on the battlefield. Pinocchio was used both in Afghanistan and in Chechnya. And soon it will come in handy when the Igilov evil spirits climb on Russia.

Mixed feelings, mostly a sense of admiration !!!

And neither camouflage, nor armor, nor bunker, nor bunker, nor the gap into which you hid will save you ...

And I remembered here my favorite film "Apocalypse Now" from childhood, or rather a phrase from the film
-Do you feel that? Napalm, son. Nothing in the world smells like him. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. That smell ... victory.

What made the F-5E "Tiger" link depicting the F-4 "Phantom" in the film is done by one "Pinocchio" installation in one volley ...

On Friday, at the crossing in Verkhnebakansky near Novorossiysk, I observed a military echelon.

True, everything was under tents.

Yes. Who has a thread at hand has YouTube unique revelations of the ukrogenshtabist Lysenko about the terrible vognemet "Cheburashko". I myself would like to revise. Well send to Popmeh Myrikansky.

According to the Ukrainian classification, it is Chebureshka

According to Ukrainian classification, everything that gives .... Cheburashka! So to speak, a free translation into the language of the Russian obscene word .... (complete and final destruction)

[ilichstar]

Tse nuclear chebureshka.

[Rroman]

In the translated version of the cartoon into Lithuanian, Cheburashka was referred to as Kulverstukas.
The Swedes recognized them as Drutten och Gena - that is, in Swedish they called Cheburashka Drutten, which in meaning is a rather successful adaptation of the Russian name: a word derived from the conversational Swede. drutta (to fall, stumble, plump, roll up).

[Stalker.1977]

That's what you need to cover the igil with, along with the landos, got it already ...

It always makes me happy when foreign publications praise Russian weapons. Well, and "Buratino" is a sin not to praise.

Pinocchio on the front line is killed by ATGM or gun while it unfolds. range he needs km 15-20

At the forefront, anything can be killed, for which commanders are given a head.

it would be nice to have this head for those who make up the terms of reference

People rarely live for 100 years. So new generations of people should know about the weapons of past centuries. Therefore, the popularization of Russian weapons is primarily a patriotic education of youth.

There is no country to land, there are no such prisons. There fascist evil spirits as at people scoffed and Germany still sits nothing. But ISIS deserves it, especially since they already used poisonous gases. But Russia used Pinocchio in Chechnya, and the USSR in Afghanistan and who sits where?

[a.hamster55]

And I feel sorry for the pines in the first photo. Or is it an element of disguise - so that they burn after a volley?

[roskot]

Pinocchio instead of gas, heats several blocks at once. Then we need a batch of pinocchio. The question will disappear by itself.

[Gormenghast]

The Caucasoids, in some ways, are superior to Russia - this is only in terms of manpower (although it is obviously of poor quality; they do not know how and do not want to fight) - here Russia is developing means that are just suitable for the extermination of large concentrations of general human beings; MLRS, AVBPM, TOS.

At the expense of the latter, it is true, I am now writing from there (from Crete). "EUROPEOIDS" are full here, of all stripes, and what is typical - there is no gloomy rye, anger and hatred. By the way, I have not met gays (I must disappoint many fans of this topic) either - well, there are no "gayropeans" and that's it! And nobody really wants to fight and not a word about politics. All the same, we are the most politicized nation, well, we have nothing else to do, how to look for enemies and gnash our teeth with hatred! Therefore, we do not live like people, but we fight….

Because the staff originally developed them as a means of disinfecting the area, after a chemical / bact attack .. But .. it turned out .. that the result was a volumetric explosion weapon .. Also, the explosion should be delayed, allowing the mixture to penetrate the cracks and fortifications. then the explosion will be there .. The range of applications of the Solntsepeks has grown significantly .. EMNIP in Chechnya .. could not navigate the village .. bandits there have notably strengthened themselves in the ground. So that's when the TOS were brought there .. the assault was not needed .. The village only had to be rebuilt again)))

In fact, these installations were not created to destroy the enemy’s fighting force, but to degass the area after the enemy used poisonous gases and bacteriological weapons. Therefore, this weapon is located in parts of the chemical defense. Well, and besides this is ammunition with liquid filler, quite poisonous. Possible leaks due to unfair storage and transportation. Chemical forces like no others can quickly clean up the infected area in this case. But, the observed combat effect from the use of Pinocchio is amazing.

How do they have "8 city blocks" fit on the area "200x400m" interesting?

[Amurets]

But how did Khoja Nasreddin make 10 caps from one skin?

[Laksamana besar]

In the planned cities, the reference values ​​of quarter sizes are used in the form of a grid, in the article they took 100 × 100 m, respectively, eight were obtained.
There are also 79 × 79 m and 120 × 120 m. Naturally, everything is exaggerated and not about Russia.
I have a block of about 900x500 m.

The standard quarter in Manhattan is about 80 × 270 m, the quarters in Edmonton (Canada) are 170 × 100 m. Neighborhoods in central Melbourne (Australia): 200 × 100 m.

You have neighborhoods measuring about 1 km x 1 km and containing about 40 multi-storey residential buildings. So figure out what will happen to one such quarter, how many victims will be, compared with smaller quarters and a smaller population. You need to look deeper and think wider.

Why go through that? I took Yandex cards and checked with a ruler. No, this cannot be in my city. If you can find a quarter of 100 by 100 meters, then this is rather a big exception. But that would be eight in a row .. And what kind of quarters are these, from a pair of closely standing high-rise buildings or what? Therefore, I am surprised at what was written in the article. Less then what?

There is not a word about your city even in your profile. Since the locality is not known, the conversation is meaningless, citizen krikun. I know similar quarters, for example, the quarters built up by five-story houses on the former Nariman Ave in Baku. The quarter consists of 4 houses. Do not believe me, ask the Baku people. And in general, it is a very dense city building. In the Soviet years, only Czech trolleybuses could drive through the streets there. You don’t say a word about your village.
