SS-21 SCARAB 9K79 Tochka FROG-7 Luna

The SS-21 SCARAB (9K79 Tochka) single-stage, short-range, tactical-ballistic missile is transported and fired from the 9P129 6x6 wheeled transporter erector launcher. It is supported by a tactical transloader (9T218) and a 9T238 missile transporter trailer towed by a ZIL-131 truck. The 9P129 TEL crew compartment is in the forward section and the missile compartment behind. During transport the missile is enclosed with the warhead in a temperature-controlled casing.

The SS-21 SCARAB missile (9M79) has a maximum range of 70 km and a CEP of 160 meters, while the improved composite propellant 9M79-1 (Tochka-U) has a maximum range of 120 km. The basic warhead is the 9N123F HE-Frag warhead which has 120 kg of high explosives. The 9N123K submunition warhead can probably carry either bomblets or mines. The SS-21 can also carry the AA60 tactical nuclear warhead. Other warheads are believed to include chemical, terminally guided warhead, and a smart-munition bomblet warhead. In 1981, the SS-21, a guided missile (providing improvement in both range and accuracy), began replacing the FROG in forward-deployed divisions, and 140 are were deployed as of 1988. Division-level SS-21 battalions were being consolidated into brigades in Soviet armies in East Germany.

@Checkingokop I'm not stuck in anything, u're the 1 stuck in ur government's cheap propaganda. And u also have a very poor knowledge about space technology.

[StiviGun1]

@Checkingokop They have not been "mainly supported" by Russian "carriers", they have been OCCASIONALLY supported by Russian rockets. They were using their space shuttles for the manned missions most of the times. So what other BULLSHITS do u have, ha?

[Checkingokop]

@StiviGun1 so stuck in American superiority you dont even see the decay of it.

[Checkingokop]

@StiviGun1 for the past decade, US non military sattelites launches and ISS missions have been mainly supported by Russian carriers.
