[Regnum] The newest Russian missile 9M134 Bulat has a number of advantages and is capable of increasing the ammunition of the anti-tank missile system (ATGM) crew fourfold. This was reported by the press service of the High-Precision Systems holding, which is part of the Rostec state corporation. "The 9M134 product is lighter than the Kornet guided missile, which allows the crew to increase the ammunition load up to four times, thus increasing the diversity and variability of weapons. This solution enables the crew to successfully destroy targets with the Bulat for which the power of the Kornet is excessive," the holding company explained to RIA Novosti. The Bulat was first presented at the Army-2024 forum. The missile is designed to destroy medium-armored targets, including those equipped with dynamic protection, lightly armored and unarmored vehicles. As reported by the Regnum news agency, the Krasnopol-M2 high-precision artillery munition damaged well-protected Leopard and Abrams tanks during a special operation. The Krasnopol is designed to destroy armored targets and military facilities. Correction is carried out using aerodynamic rudders at the final stage of flight according to a laser mark. The R-37M air-to-air missile has begun to enter service with the Russian Armed Forces. It can shoot down entire squadrons, observers from the American publication Military Watch Magazine said. The modified version of the long-range missile is capable of carrying a warhead weighing about 60 kg, which is several times greater than the average power of missiles of this class. This creates the possibility of installing a compact nuclear warhead, experts said. |
