Armed Forces soldiers show “bee wheelbarrow” to launch S-8 air missiles (video)
The homemade launcher was called a ‘bee’.
A video of a pickup truck trailer adapted to launch unmanned C-8 missiles has appeared on a telegram channel.
With an inherent sense of humor, the soldiers of the Armed Forces called this improvised installation ‘Bee’. After all, the result of shooting this ‘apiary’ should be something like this – ‘dead orcs do not buzz’.
Perhaps here we are dealing with the most complex engineering product that can be created in the field. To begin with, it was necessary to bring the electric trigger for the trailer, where there is a unit for starting uncontrolled C-8. Judging by the fact that during the shooting from this ‘wheelbarrow’ our fighters were not outside, the firing process itself is as ‘automated’ as possible in the current conditions.
The first conclusion in this story is that our defenders are forced to improvise so much due to the lack of MLRS-class systems, such as M142 HIMARS or M270.
And perhaps in this way our fighters hint that in the conditions of modern war, light MLRS have their place on the battlefield. Which are still produced by ‘artisanal’ method.
