On each machine, an 2 unit is mounted, capable of releasing 40 NAR. The weight of one empty block - 150kg, equipped - 450 kg.
«Масса одного 80-мм НАР в зависимости от модификации составляет от 11,3 до 15,2 кг. Ракеты могут иметь различные боевые части: кумулятивно-осколочные, с двумя тысячами "стрел" для поражения живой силы, объёмно-детонирующие, бетонобойные, осветительные и др. Прицельная дальность – около 2 км. На максимальной дистанции – рассеивание около 6 метров от точки прицеливания», – сообщает издание.
Ukrainian experts are not pioneers in this matter. According to Vestnik, “the first experiments were carried out in Afghanistan, then Tanks, Armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles with established NAR could be seen in Transnistria, Nagorno-Karabakh and Abkhazia. ”
The author, referring to the experts, believes that “the installation of NAR units on the former Strela-10 complexes is a forced measure, the anti-aircraft missiles have long expired warranty periods, and the Ukrainians also have problems with aircraft carriers of these units one. "
The disadvantages of the "new" complexes, according to the publication, are "weak booking of the tractor and the short range of the C-8 missiles, which ultimately will inevitably lead to losses in equipment and personnel."
