The Russian Chrysanthemum missile is one of the most powerful anti-tank weapons. At the same time, work is underway to improve its killing power.

According to Spanish journalists who visited the Army-2023 exhibition, Russia for the first time demonstrated to the public new modifications of the 9M123 Chrysanthemum ATGM, which can be used both from ground-based ATGMs and from a helicopter.

The new 9M123M missile, called the "armor destroyer" by the manufacturer, is capable of piercing steel with a thickness of 1.1 meters (according to Rosoboronexport - 1.2 m). Many modern products have nothing to oppose it. Due to its characteristics, it could become the most optimal ATGM for Russia

- an assessment is given in the Defensa edition.

It is indicated that the 9M123M can be used both from portable complexes and from mobile platforms, for example, from the Chrysanthemum-S SPTRK.

Another modification was the 9M123MF rocket, the characteristics of which were not disclosed by the manufacturer. Nevertheless, it was stated that it was designed to defeat attacking battle formations and fortified positions. As explained in the publication, this ATGM can be a version specially adapted for attack helicopters, such as the Mi-28NE.
