      @@manchagojohnsonmanchago6367 In America, unless we're actually having a conversation about the Switzerland's military, if someone says "Swiss Army", they're referring to the Victorinox Brand, red colored, Folding Pocket Knives that have all kinds of tools in them like scissors, magnifying glass, saw, bottle opener, knife blades, tweezers, toothpicks, leather punch, etc. I have a friend that I went to school with for 2 or 3 years who's father was in the Swiss Army. I remember him saying that what we called a "Swiss Army Knife" was nothing like a Swiss Combat Knife. They make great watches too(for the money). I don't know if other countries refer to Victorinox Pocket Knives as Swiss Army Knives. We also call the folding pocket tools that are a pair of pliers and have other tools that fold out a "Leatherman". They're just one manufacturer of those tools, but it's what everyone calls a folding pocket sized multi-tool.

    An excellent training video for an equally awesome RPG KOMAR. As a retired US Army soldier and instructor, I can appreciate simple and insightful training methods you used. I particularly liked the "in-field" tips on sling carrying the KOMAR. Simple things such as that are often overlooked. Hand Salute and Long Live A Free Ukraine.

    There is pretty enough of high end wapons in UA already. Powerful yet big, clumsy, weighty and madly expensive. Not suitable for silencing soft targets as mg nests, sniper nests, cars, apc's, hoovering choppers etc. The Komar is an unique concept of pocket artillery that light infantry needs the most. Can be launched from laying down position, without blowing one's boots off, from within hideouts or without being concerned about dead zone in the back. Unlike rpg-7 it is equipped with inertial fuse not prone to go off accidentally. One can carry five of them not being scared of banging obstacles with warheads. Easy to carry while climbing, sneaking or crawling. Consider it as insanely powerful shotgun. Or Noisy Cricket from MiB :)

      This rocket has a safe warhead that han be struck.. He's wrong about Russian rpg 7 rockets though the safety cap being removed doesn't make them dangerous.. They have a standoff fuze.. The Chinese rpg7vdosnt have this and can kill you if you strike the armed grenade on something with enough force.. You'll see videos of people keeping the plastic safety caps on the Chinese rounds even when loaded in the launcher

  • @ABCantonese

    Honestly, not every big target is a tank. You're going to encounter targets that are at distance and require an explosion to eliminate.
    Just as every infantry man is equipped with grenades, every infantry man should have one of these available. It's light, it's simple.
    Hell, it might even work very well with top attack.

    • @zackhawn5944

    • @HandleMyBallsYouTube
      @HandleMyBallsYouTube 2 года назад +13

      It's not just that, actually most big targets aren't tanks at all, these things will work well against BMP's, BTR's, BRDM's, trucks and lightly armoured, or soft skinned vehicles. This thing might not be able to make a tank cook off from the front but if you can blow up the fuel trucks supporting those tanks they're not going to be very effective anymore.

    This is actually such an interesting concept, why was it fased out completly? i can see it having use as an light anti-material weapon. It looks perfect for mounted or airborne troops and the mechanism isn't complicated at all. Great for covert operations, easy to hide. Idk if you can remove the warhead but then it would be even more compact. Would fit in a backpack almost. Hide a bunch of these and pop Russian patrols when they don't expect it. Try hiding a NLAW...

      Before war in Ukraine even started.. Ukrainians already had tons of lightweight, one time use ATs (such as RPG 22, RPG 26, etc). They also have tons of RPG 7. I'm sure that they use plenty of those to ambush Russians convoys that consists of BTRs & Ural/Kamaz Trucks.

      NATO standards require that the warhead self-destructs in a case of a miss. The original 1970s design did not have self-destruct fuse. Manufacturer prepared an upgraded fuse for a retrofit, but the retrofit (100K weapons) was judged too iffy. I understand a combination of factors (old production runs) would make the retrofitted weapon even less reliable than it already is, due to time in storage.
      This is associated with the main issue today - from 1991 to 2014 nobody, NOBODY thought we will EVER AGAIN need to mobilize a large army against some invader. So "mass produced, simple, cheap, though maybe not-that-reliable" was completely out of fashion. Conflicts were supposed to be small and far away, fought by expensive special forces with many years of training, who were to be given the most sophisticated, most reliable weapons. I believe all European countries kept tanks somewhere in dusty attics (if even that) by sheer inertia and because the paperwork to dispose of them is truly onerous. You could get a tank pretty much at the scrap metal price, some operators of kid's amusement parks bought them, for kids to crawl inside. My sons loved those. Germany, being the best in paperwork, disposed of most of it's tanks the fastest. Poland kept a thousand or two, 50/50 because of bureaucratic inefficiency and because in 2005 we had a Defense and Foreign Affairs minister who envisioned (what a fool, so they called him) that mass land warfare in Europe is NOT a passe thing.

      It might reappear soon - ZSP Niewiadów, the company that produced the original RPG-76, said some time ago that they'll develop a new version.

    I am blown away. This looks dangerous as fuck to fire and I sure as hell wouldn't wanna put my face so close to detonation, "wolf pussy" (the foul gasses emitted from the breach after firing im not a wierdo). But hey if it works it works and its super compact and light. I love soviet and eastern European militaria and this RPG76 is news to me.

      This is how it looks like while firing: ruclips.net/video/3zgQkSNfKU4/видео.htmlsi=0Oe_OnYpZdJMAqGw. So yes, definitely a lifetime experience:)
      But the advantage is that you can shoot out of very confined spaces and even by sticking it out through the car's window. If you search it on Google, you can find the manual (it's a sticker on the launch tube) which has pictures showing safe distances in different firing positions.

    I noticed that the fins were instantly on fire and that the soldier had to turn his head to avoid the gauze and heat caused by the shooting, it is true that it is very handy and fast, but still there is a lot of risk of burning your face you have to be experienced and well trained in its use if not very good as a portable rocket launcher

    • @piotrd.4850

      Lack of newly modernized fuze is sad history, as it is VERY handy and useful weapon to give squad some hard hitting / support capability. It is not to fight main battle tanks, but against emplacements, technicals, light skin vehicles, improvised trucks and whole range of annoying shit on battlefield it is cheap and useful.
