Uralvagonzavod (UVZ) Concern of Russia will send a new batch of
military equipment to Baku on the order of Azerbaijan, the Concern
told APA.
The new batch of the military equipment will include the second batch
of TOS-1A Solntsepyok heavy flamethrowers in 6 vehicles.
Besides, the Concern will deliver to Azerbaijan TMM-6 mechanized
bridges and the first batch of 3 IMR-3M combat engineer vehicles for
the firs time.
"TOS-1A Solntsepyok heavy flamethrowers covers a target densely at 6
seconds of full salvo duration at the maximum range of 6000 m. It
allows suppressing enemy active actions for a long time period at
considerable areas and 100% destruction of unconcealed enemy personnel
at the area of 40000 square meters. Azerbaijan ordered the UVZ Concern
100 T-90S tanks, 100 BMP-3M infantry combat vehicles, 18 2S31 Vena
self-propelled guns, 18 MSTA-S self-propelled howitzers, 18 TOS-1A
Solntsepyok heavy flamethrowers, TMM-6 mechanized bridges, MTU-90M
tank layer bridges in 2011, and IMR-3M combat engineer vehicles this
year," APA reports.
It should be noted that the Armenian authorities have repeatedly
expressed their concern over the continuing sale of Russian arms to
Azerbaijan.
