Re: Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan
I wouldn't get too excited about all these new weapons until we get confirmation (photos or videos or official statement from the ministry). I am aware that our defense ministry is looking for hard-hitting weapons that can deliver painfull strikes to the enemy but I have no further details. Maybe we will see something during the scheduled September parade.
Here is some info for you:
- The 90 km range Smerch rocket weighs 800 kig. The wearhed weighs 300 kg (similar to significant size aircraft bomb). Compare that with the GRAD rocket's warhead of around 20 kg.
- The MiG SKAT never entered service. The Russians discontinued that stealth strike UAV program.
