  2. That’s some intense work boys. Stay safe and God speed to victory

  3. Did they hit two or three vehicles? Looked the vehicles were nice and lined up making it easy for them

  5. The MILAN might not be a state of the art ATGM in European use like MELLS, Javelin, Akeron MP but it played a massive role in defeating ISIS in Syria. The Kurds worshipped this missile for its accuracy and lethality.

  6. My heart was in my mouth just watching this on my phone. Those lads have balls of steel.

  7. I’ve seen these mounted on UA spartan APCs, pretty cool

  8. Probably the best Milan video I have ever seen. They look like they are in a good position to hit a lot of vehicles. Has to be encouraging to the defense to see it working.

  9. MILAN is a good piece of kit, but needs to have the sight reticle kept on the target vehicle, or fixture for the entire time of flight (12ish seconds) it’s called SACLOS (stop reading here. i’m waffling 😂)

    i was in my battalion’s anti-tank pl. for a couple of years. we switched to MILAN in ’83.

    it’s good. a mega-improvement over the Wombat & Conbat guns we had before

    MILAN isn’t heavy, but it’s very awkward to carry. but it makes up for that by being good against all types of targets: tanks, armoured vehicles, bunkers, etc. there’s not much it can’t do. it’s got a tandem warhead as well

  10. What did that first round do?… It bounced off of the side, or what?

  11. That has to be the easiest and quickest reload I’ve seen on an ATGM system.

  13. Awesome and seems MUCH MORE cost effective as the missile is jus loaded into the chamber instead of a throw-a-way weapon.
