"Tanks disappear after a fight with HJ-10": the Chinese press showed footage of the use of self-propelled anti-tank systems

Chinese news resources showed footage of the combat use of the Chinese self-propelled anti-tank complex AFT-10. By firing the HJ-10 rocket, he successfully coped with the target, which was the Type 59 (the basis for its creation was the Soviet T-54).

"HJ-10 engaged in combat with the [Chinese classification] Type 59 main battle tank . The tank disappeared

- writes the Chinese press.

The SPTRK AFT-10 was first demonstrated to the public in 2014. It has a mass of 20 tons and is mounted on the ZBD-04A BMP chassis. The complex is armed with 8 guided missiles, which are located in transport and launch containers that are in combat readiness. ATGM HJ-10 ("Red Arrow-10") acts as a means of destruction of enemy tanks. Experts believe that it is an analogue of the Israeli product Spike-NLOS. The rocket weighs 150 kg, of which 43 kg falls on the warhead. The HJ-10 operates at a distance of 2 to 10 km.

"The new missile system AFT-10 is designed to fire at remote armored targets

- indicated in the China Military edition.

In the Russian troops, the Shturm-S SPTRK and the more modern Chrysanthemum-S complex play a similar role. The 9M123 ATGM and its modifications with a range of target destruction from 0.4 to 6 km serve as the standard armament of the latter.
