SlowMotion Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 One of the things I learnt from that video was how succesfully Egyptians used their missiles against Israel's tanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny part was when I was watching them put them together I was thinking that looks like I toy I would've got for Christmas in 1974.

SlowMotion Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 I guess anti tank missiles were a new, surprising thing tactically back then. Israel wasn't prepared for something like that. Now, some decades later missiles are so good that tankers know to be careful even if their opponent doesn't have any tanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kettler Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) SlowMotion, Something most people don't know is that when the IDF's 190th Tank Brigade (pure, tanks only) famously got slaughtered by a deluge of AT-3/SAGGER or Malyutka and RPG-7 fire, it was facing twice the normal weapon quantities. Why? The Egyptians stripped those weapons out of the second echelon Army still on Egypt's side of the Suez Canal, doubling the AT firepower of the Army already crossing. Also, the IDF first encountered Russian ATGMs in the 1967 War in the form of the AT-1/SNAPPER or Shmel.https://www.scribd.com/document/380593797/At-1-Snapper The SAGGER first saw action in the Vietnam War on April 23, 1972, a year before the Yom Kippur War.http://www.military-today.com/missiles/malyutka.htm Regards, John Kettler Edited January 16, 2019 by John Kettler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
