A group of soldiers covered the rear of two T-72s firing at the enemy from their 125 mm guns. After several shots were fired, a powerful explosion was heard near one of the tanks. Judging by the storyboard, you can understand that the ATGM did not hit the tank itself, but exploded in the immediate vicinity, next to the starboard side.

Apparently, one of the modifications of the Israeli "spike"was used. The Azerbaijani army has no other missiles with a similar trajectory.

The crew was very lucky: if the ATGM had hit the tower, the consequences would have been very serious, up to the explosion of ammunition with the failure of the tower. Here, the "seventy-second" even managed to continue the battle.

Third-generation "spike" ATGMs are actively used during this conflict.they have repeatedly destroyed not only tanks, IFVs, MLRS, but also buildings, field fortifications and groups of military personnel.
