In the USSR, the development of artillery was traditionally given increased attention. The result of this was the appearance of a series of machines unique in their characteristics, including the 240-mm self-propelled mortar 2S4 "Tulip".
In order to increase the efficiency of the complex, back in the 80s, a guided mine 3F5 "Daredevil" was introduced into its ammunition, providing for correction at the final stage of the flight along a laser illumination beam. This guidance principle allows you to hit most targets with the first shot.
The use of "Daredevil" mines began in Afghanistan, and demonstrated high efficiency. For the special "howl" of the jet engine of the mine, it was nicknamed "The Devil".
The range of the "Daredevil" mine reaches 9200 m with a transonic initial flight speed of the mine of 358 m/s. Circular probable deviation does not exceed 3 m.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the Kalashnikov arms concern is unifying a catapult for UAVs and loitering munitions. Testing of a prototype has already begun.
