Defense Express reported that Ukrainian Armed Forces managed to hit russia`s most advanced helicopter Ka-52 and then repeated the case with another One. We also published spectacular video of enemy’s armored vehicle hit by Ukrainian Stugna-P missile launched at highly elevated angle from 3.6 km away and video with Ukrainian Stugna-P ATGM hunting on russian TOS-1 Buratino MLRS.
Defense Express note:
The Stugna-P is produced by Kyiv-based Luch Design Bureau.
The laser-guided system has a long-range and ample penetration capability.
The launcher weighs 71-pounds and must be placed on a tripod. It has a thermal image camera with a television guidance unit. The control mechanism is in a laptop with a joystick that allows the soldier to guide the missiles manually or leave it in fire-and-forget mode and let the laser guidance mode do its damage.
There are lots of videos in the Internet that show the trajectory of the missile flying straight then arching upward to zoom down on top of a target tank.
The anti-tank weapon has a range from 328 feet to 3.1 miles. The flight time is a few seconds to 25 seconds depending on the target’s range. The missile’s warhead can be a high-explosive anti-tank or high-explosive fragmentary round. It can penetrate through explosive-reactive armor.
