Excellent Bellingcat OSINT Analysis of ATGM Effectiveness in Syria


Recommended Posts

This is first rate OSINT combat analysis, and I feel it is highly relevant to CMSF2. It breaks down events year by year, discussing missiles used, total quantities involved (by type where known) and results, as well as where those ATGMs came from. There are some important tactical matters discussed as well.

Interesting.

With regard to effectiveness of ATGMs in CMSF2 my anecdotal experience is that Metis-M and Kornet have a failure rate of about 30% in CMSF2 (nosediving). While the TOW-2A never nosedives.

If this report is to believed the failure rate of Metis-M, Kornet (and probably AT-4/5/6) should be similar to the TOW-2A.
