Russia’s campaign in Syria is once again grabbing headlines as reports are coming in from Moscow, claiming that they’ve hit 40 ISIS targets in the past 24 hours thanks to the deployment of Russian fighter jets and the TOS-1A weapon system.
The mobile rocket launcher, or TOS-1A, is a thermobaric weapon that can destroy eight city blocks in one strike. The thermobaric warheads attached spread a flammable liquid around a target and then ignites, causing massive devastation.
Photographs taken this past week, show that at least one of these weapons is being used by govnerment forces in Syria. You won’t believe some of the damage it can cause.

If you and your buddy are going to continue to fight a war like you have been then a lot more Christians and American Solders are going to die, best thing to do is get off your fat a** join the Military and see how it done in the real World. We won WW-2 for one reason we didnt have you and Obama leading the Country, we had MEN.
THAT’D do the trick on my driveway this winter.

Read the article- you can translate in on google. By the way this system first was tested on village full of civilians in Chechnya in 2000.
No Schoeff you are!! Your the one living in the Cold War no body else it speed up to what’s happening now not three years ago Russia has made great strides guess you were too busy reminiscing about the Cold War when you were there,,,
what a deadly war machine…them ISIS mudscums gonna get roasted.
Schoeff -what took you to Russia three years ago ??
It is a fuel air bomb the liquid is not separate. I am going to simplify here thermobaric weapons work on a fuel air mixture fuel and charges are encased in one warhead. Initial charge dissipates the flammable material second charge ignites it causing huge change in air pressure and immense heat. Range is dependent upon projectile. Flamethrower is a man pack or vehicle mounted weapon that discharges a mixture of a flammable liquid and a thickener to make it stick to an object and set it on fire. Very short range weapon man pack is generally not much more than 50 meters vehicle is approximately 100 meters or so. Line of site weapon. Do a little research on weapons so you don’t p**s off old vets like myself. RAKKASAN
At least Russia has a leader, must be nice.
