The crews of the Russian airborne troops' TOS-1A Solntsepyok heavy flamethrower systems are using the latest software solutions for geo-referencing during firing, the Russian Defence Ministry's said on Monday.The Ministry of Defence added that the Solntsepyok calculations of the Novorossiysk Guards Airborne Assault Mountain Formation support the airborne assault units during active defence in the Verbovoye area in the direction of Zaporozhye.The commander of the flamethrower platoon, code-named Flame, said that his task was to attack enemy infantry sheltering in dugouts. The crew moved into position as quickly as possible and struck. "After our work, the enemy has no chance to come out of their hiding places unharmed," the commander said. In early October, a Ukrainian soldier captured near Artemivsk described the Solntsepyok as the most terrifying weapon. He admitted that he had not come under TOS-1A fire himself, but had seen the consequences.

Russian Airborne Troops Enhance Flamethrower Precision with New Software
14:22 23.10.2023 (Updated: 14:23 23.10.2023) To improve the accuracy of heavy flamethrower systems, Russian airborne troops are now using new geo-referencing software developed for the Russian Ministry of Defence.
The crews of the Russian airborne troops' TOS-1A Solntsepyok heavy flamethrower systems are using the latest software solutions for geo-referencing during firing, the Russian Defence Ministry's said on Monday.
"The control and correction of hit targets is carried out by the calculations of unmanned aerial vehicles, which transmit the results of the hit to the command post in real time," the ministry reported on its Telegram channel.
The Ministry of Defence added that the Solntsepyok calculations of the Novorossiysk Guards Airborne Assault Mountain Formation support the airborne assault units during active defence in the Verbovoye area in the direction of Zaporozhye.
The commander of the flamethrower platoon, code-named Flame, said that his task was to
attack enemy infantry sheltering in dugouts. The crew moved into position as quickly as possible and struck.
"After our work, the enemy has no chance to come out of their hiding places unharmed," the commander said.
The TOS-1A Solntsepek is a tank-mounted flamethrower system in service with the Russian Armed Forces. It uses unguided 220 mm calibre rockets with a thermobaric warhead capable of destroying enemy personnel, equipment and fortifications by volumetric explosion. The launcher can carry up to 24 rounds, covering an area of up to 40,000 square metres. A full volley takes six seconds. The range is 400 metres to 6 kilometres. The motorway range is 550 kilometres. The crew consists of 3 men.
In early October, a Ukrainian soldier captured near Artemivsk described the Solntsepyok as the most terrifying weapon. He admitted that he had not come under
TOS-1A fire himself, but had seen the consequences.
