Improvised Employment of S-5 Air-to-Surface Rockets in Land Warfare: A brief history and technical appraisal

Unknown Author
4.9/5 (23811 ratings)
Description:A limited contingent of the 40th Army of the Soviet Union stationed in Afghanistan in the 1980s developed what appears to be the first documented improvised system employing S-5 rockets in the surface-to-surface role. Although there was no shortage of artillery and close air support for Soviet troops, these capabilities were not always immediately available in the mountainous parts of the country. Although improvised systems firing air-to-surface rockets had become commonplace in some armed conflicts of the 1990s and early 2000s, it was only during the civil war in Libya in 2011 that these weapons became one of the primary systems used in many of a conflict’s land battles. S-5 rockets, among others, were used with a variety of improvised systems, ranging from single-barrel man-portable rocket launchers to UB-32-57 rocket pods mounted on pickup trucks. This report explores the history and technical considerations attendant to this unorthodox use of surface-to-ground unguided rockets.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
