>Firing range matched by any semi-modern ATGM
>Huge, easy to hit target on top
>Requires a special reloading vehicle (another easy target)
>Huge risk for any infantry or light armored vehicle

What is even the point of it? Seems like an easy target in a modern battlefield.

        Those are line of sight weapons. You wouldn't put this or any artillery system in line of sight of those weapons.

        If you still had IFVs running around then it's too early for the heavy seige guns anyway.

            A single tos salvo is more destructive to entrenched infantry than days worth of artillery shelling. It's a trade-off and the risk is high, but so is reward.

        It worked exactly as advertized at Piskey. The Russians supressed the very well entrenched yukes enough that the TOS-1 could be brought forward, it was, they fired it, it cleared out the defenders in a single blow, the russians took the pile of rubble.

          civilian buildings, schools and hospitals is not terror
          Correct.

          The current definition of terror is a non-state actor targeting civilians for political ends. ie. 9/11.
          The original definition of terror is bombing civilian populations to force surrender in war. ie. The bombings of hiroshima and nagasaki.

          This is perfectly useless for either of those things because of it's short range. It needs to be supported by a large contingent of ground forces which means it's an active battlefield and only military use.

          There it is not a weapon, and not everything is a fricking warcrime, sometimes it's just war, you dumb hysterical fricking idiots. If you knew anything about war this would be obvious to you, but you don't, you just spread your inane opinions on social media like a pack of nagging c**ts and lower the general intelligence of the human race.

      It doesn't look heavily armoured to me, and a truck wouldn't be able to carry that weight.

      It's basically just a rocket pod bolted on top top of a turretless T-72 MBT so it is quite heavily armored for artillery.
      Practical reason, it needs to get very close to the front line because the original rocket range was less than 3km, now it is up to 10 I believe.
      Probably reason, Russian industry can't produce shit and they had a bunch of T-72's from the Soviet Union sitting in storage.
      Everything about the Russian arms industry seems to come down refurbing shit from their pre-90's stockpile.

              It's basically just a rocket pod bolted on top top of a turretless T-72 MBT so it is quite heavily armored for artillery.
              Practical reason, it needs to get very close to the front line because the original rocket range was less than 3km, now it is up to 10 I believe.
              Probably reason, Russian industry can't produce shit and they had a bunch of T-72's from the Soviet Union sitting in storage.
              Everything about the Russian arms industry seems to come down refurbing shit from their pre-90's stockpile.

              was about why it using a T-72 hull and why. Saying it was either because they wanted armored because of the short range rocket or because they had a lot of hulls. The reply was:
              >Actual reason: big warhead plus small missile equals not a lot of space for fuel for the rocket motor.
              That's a bit of a confusing reply to why it uses a tank hull.

                ACTUAL REASON: Small missle + big warhead = short range.

      They had a lot of T-72 hulls.
      That's the sole reason.
      The vehicle itself is extremely volatile when loaded and should never be within LoS of an enemy, even one armed with a handgun.

        That's a bit of an exaggeration, but the general principle is correct. It's not a front line unit.

    I think it's basically a siege weapon designed to crush fortified positions with 24 heavy rockets packing thermobaric warheads.
    It's not really a battlefield weapon nor a practical artillery system. That is best left to other weapons.
    Basically a very niche use device.

        The US drops ours from an airplane, which makes sense when examined with US air dominance. Russia’s use seems moronic in comparison since a 2km ultra-vulnerable mlrs *is* moronic.

    Like a lot of Russian hardware introduced in the wake of Afghanistan it's specialised in obliterating low-tech fortified positions.
    Why risk your armored vehicles and infantry trying to assault that village or valley if you can obltierate it instead?
    Sure, the slow speed, low accuracy and low range make it useless against a real army, but what are the chances of having to fight one?

      The late USSR spent 50%+ GDP on military needs. So design bureaus became desirable places for children of the nomenklatura. That's why they had 3 similar tanks t-64, t-72, and t-80, rocket artillery in various calibers, and small-scale production of wunderwaffe as TOS.

        Nah. Engineering is for nerds. Jocks little heads hurt from all them mathematics, engineering drawings and notorious strength of materials.

        Soviet nomenclatura jocks head their own colleges and career paths that doesn't require learning engineering or learning in general.

    It's basically just meant to level buildings in a besieged city that you can't easily take. Of course the only thing it offers over carpet bombing with an actual bomber is that it is relatively speaking harder to destroy but that's about it. If Russia had air superiority to any real degree with SEAD they could just fly in bombers and do the same thing with better results.

    Don't try to view it like field artillery but rather like a weird mix of an assault gun and a siege cannon in spirit.
    It's a delete button for the garrisons of fortifications really.
    If you have some big soviet block apartment building, school or hospital with soldiers inside, a barrage with some direct hits will destroy most of their lungs.

    It's useless. Look up how fast a blast wave loses energy compared to fragmentation. Then watch some videos from the war and see for yourself how "accurate" this moronic catapult is. Also pay attention to how many rockets turn into burning debris instead of actually exploding. Russia has been using dozens of them and other thermobaric memes around the clock for 6 months against conscripts sitting in simple trenches and the best they can do is advance 50 meters a day.
