The Russian Defense Ministry has released a video of the TOS-1A Solntsepyok [‘Scorching Sunlight’] destroying a Ukrainian stronghold with personnel in the Svatovo direction in Donbass with a single thermobaric shell.
Since their appearance in the Donbass, Russia’s ‘heavy flamethrower’ thermobaric artillery quickly gained a reputation for their ability to inflict devastating damage against enemy fortifications, vehicles and anyone unfortunate enough to find themselves in their zone of fire. Where do these weapons originate and how do they work? Sputnik explains.
