Something new from one of my oldest refs. and New Year Last Year in Review or if you will, NYLYR HMmmm, what you call a liar from NY!?! Anyway here's Part 1...

The next is a "crossover" item though the new BTR-4 variant looks really good, it's what's said about the T-72AMT's ATGW the LUCH that caught my eye as a farther conformation of it's performance as I posted several months back on Ukraine's latest ATGW's. Also I'll post the Data Sheets for both of these pieces of equipment, generally speaking, when they run an article like this those sheets are likely to have been updated.
Located at bottom of ref. 1..."...developed by State Kyiv Design Bureau ‘Luch’. This missile uses a semi-automatic guidance from laser beam and [b]can penetrate 750 mm of armour at a range of 5 km."

Not what I was expecting but a small plus anyway.
