The heavy flamethrower system (TOS-1A) "Solntsepyok" has received a new navigation system that has improved the accuracy of strikes to within a few meters. In addition, it reduced combat time in counter-battery combat conditions. This was announced by Vladimir Pimenov, General Director of VNII "Signal".
According to him, the military personnel of the radiation, chemical, and biological protection (RKhBZ) troops asked specialists to increase the efficiency of the "Solntsepyok". In response, VNII "Signal" proposed an orientation system that made it possible to reduce combat time without the crew leaving the combat vehicle.
This improved the accuracy of work, allowed us to improve to some single meters
Tests of the new navigation system for the TOS-1A "Solntsepyok" took place in the summer of 2023. The tests confirmed the parameters set by the engineers. The heavy flamethrower system has become even more accurate, the enemy will not hide from its hellfire.
Characteristics of TOS-1A "Solntsepyok":
- Striking at a distance of up to 6 km
- Use of unguided rockets (caliber 220 mm) with a thermobaric warhead (belong to volumetric explosion ammunition)
- The package contains 24 thermobaric shells
- Area of destruction - up to 40 thousand square meters
Earlier, the Ministry of Defense named the differences between TOS-1A and TOS-2.
