YEKATERINBURG, January 6. /TASS/. Heavy flamethrower systems TOS-2 "Tosochka" arrived in the mobile units of the troops of radiation, chemical and biological protection of the Central Military District (CVO) in the Saratov region. This was reported on Wednesday by the press service of the CVO.
"The mobile units of the RKHB protection, stationed in the Saratov region, received heavy flamethrower systems TOS-2," the report says.
In total, the troops of NBC protection CVO received about 30 modern samples of weapons and military equipment, including modern water dispensing stations ARS-14KM on the basis of the truck "KAMAZ", and the machine radiation, chemical and biological reconnaissance RHM-8.
TOS-2 "Tosochka" is the successor of the heavy flamethrower system TOS-1A "Solntsepek" with improved tactical and technical characteristics. Unlike its predecessor, it is made on the basis of the Ural car of increased load capacity and cross-country ability. It has an increased launch range of unguided rockets. Aiming, shooting and fire control of the TOS-2 are fully automated. A crane is mounted on the machine, so the system does not need a transport-charging machine.
In addition, the TOS-2 has a system of electronic protection against high-precision weapons.
