Formidable Weapon Against Tanks: Kornet ATGM Missiles Found in Israel's Possession

Israeli military personnel discovered a cache of Russian 9M133 missiles for the Kornet ATGM and other weapons in Lebanon. The leadership of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is considering including these missiles in its arsenal, according to Bulgarian Military.

The Kornet ATGM, known in NATO under the code name AT-14 Spriggan, is a formidable anti-tank weapon, impressive for its armor penetration. Thanks to the laser guidance system, the operator captures and holds the target until the missile hits it.
