Hope to get somewhere: what is wrong with Russian improvised RSSV - Forbes

The installation of unmanaged missiles on land equipment in the publication was called "amazing solution". Aviation has ballistic computers to calculate at what angle to attack, and there is no such on ground equipment. In the Russian Federation, 32 missile blocks with uncontrollable aviation missiles were installed on the BTR-80. However, the effectiveness of such a decision raises questions. Forbes reports.

BTR-80 with starting installations called "amazing" because usually such launchers are put on shock helicopters or planes. It is amazing because it makes sense to install on aviation, because they have ballistic computers that help calculate the right shooting angle. It is unlikely that someone is thinking of helping crews. Therefore, the invaders hope they are just lucky during a short distance. The C-5 missiles weigh about 5 kg, so the efficiency of improvised systems will be low.

The ammunition has a small combat part and low accuracy. The fact that in the Russian Federation increasingly use homemade machines indicates that they have a lack of special equipment. Since the beginning of a full -scale war, they have lost more than 500 combat vehicles a month. Such equipment is being repaired and produced at a much lower rate. Therefore, until the Kremlin can adapt to the needs of the troops, they will increasingly do self -made.
