The development is capable of launching multiple rocket launchers, said a representative of the manufacturing company with the call sign Thirtieth.

MOSCOW, July 22. /tass/. Omsk developers have created a lightweight flame-throwing system that can be installed, among other things, on the Omich multifunctional ground-based robotic complex (NRTC). This was reported in the Popular Front, which provides support to producers through the Kulibin Club.

"Omich complexes are used to evacuate wounded soldiers, to deliver ammunition, food, fuel - in general, any logistical tasks in the frontline area. The NRTC can carry more than 500 kg, can transport more than a ton on a trailer, can tow passenger cars, minibuses. Omsk is the birthplace of the legendary heavy flamethrower systems Solntsepek and Tosochka. Therefore, together with the cadets and the scientific department of the Omsk Armored Institute, we made a lightweight flamethrower system. Unlike a conventional hand-held grenade launcher, it is capable of launching multiple rocket launchers, which seriously enhances the damaging effect," a representative of the manufacturing company with the call sign Thirtieth told about the principle of operation.

The People's Front noted that the key advantage of the Omich tracked vehicle is its high maneuverability, which allows it to get to and leave locations inaccessible to other vehicles, including overcoming water obstacles a meter or more deep.

Omich is actively used in the combat zone, the fighters are happy, in fact, it replaces both an ATV and a car. You can control the NRTC manually, like a motorcycle, and remotely," said the Thirtieth.

He noted that the robotics complex project has been supported by the Governor of the Omsk Region, Vitaly Khotsenko, since the beginning of development, and was also implemented in close cooperation with the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

"After the assault on Mariupol, the soldiers of the Somalia battalion asked them to come up with something to transport a machine gun, an AGS (automatic grenade launcher - approx. TASS), something on the remote control. In addition, they asked for development for the delivery of at least minimal cargo in front-line conditions. First, we equipped a laboratory at the Omsk Armored Institute, and the guys made several small and medium-class models. And after interacting with the military and the Kulibin Club, we came to a car of the size and characteristics that we have now. In general, the Popular Front gave our team a second life: what was a hobby, what we considered as a humanitarian project, turned into a full-fledged industrial production, professional development with a staff of designers, engineers, technologists, and a quality department," added the Thirtieth.

About the Kulibin Club

The Kulibin Club of the Popular Front is engaged in the selection, testing, and support of mass production of the best developments of domestic engineers. Thanks to this initiative, thousands of innovative electronic warfare equipment, quadrocopters, self-propelled robot trolleys and other products have been put on the front line.
