Hey /k/, can you help ID some weapons from Syria? Thanks.

Some kind of MLRS? What model?
>>
>>34138449
My *guess* since I'm in a hurry is a Type 63 multiple rocket launcher for 130mm rockets.
>>
>>34138505
*107mm rockets, my mistake. I got the two systems mixed up, the 107mm uses that swiss cheese carriage.
>>
>>34138505
Yep its a Type 63 with the 107mm- made by about half a dozen countries, quite a popular bit of gear over there
>>
>>34138505
>>34138552
How can you tell that's not a RPU-14?

Is this a T-72?

What is the easiest way to tell the difference between T55, 62/64 and 72? I always get them confused, especially if it's a naked 72.
>>
>>34138589
The perforated metal carriage is quite distinctive to the towed and mounted 63's
>>
>>34138608
They all have different road wheels, this is one of the most visible differences.

The entire point of an MRLS is that it's mobile.

That is not mobile.

It's on the back of a techie.
>>
>>34138674

My bad. Looked like a stationary platform.
>>
>>34138642
What if you can't see the wheels? Any other way?

What is this thing? Flak?
>>
>>34138871
that looks like t-72, generally if you don't see road wheels, turret shape, hatch location can tell, other good example is hull fronts splash guard, then one in picture is typical to t-72
>>
>>34138904
Probably got shot off. SAA tanks are mostly in bad shape.
>>
>>34138608
Its a bare T-72, the T-72 has a 'V' shaped splash guard were the T-62 and T-55 have a horizontal one.
>>
>>34138882
57mm SZ-60
>>
>>34138920
Can you post a pic example?
>>
>>34138871
>T-55
Bore evacuator at the end of the barrel.
Flat splash guard.
Five road wheels

T-62:
Bore evacuator in the center of the barrel.
Otherwise virtually identical to T-55.

T-72:
Bore evacuator in the center of the barrel.
'V' shaped splash guard.
Six road wheels.
Steeper angle of the glacis and a flatter turret.
>>
>>34138959
>>34138941
Note the difference in slash guard and glacis geometry.

it too has a slightly stranger turret shape, T-55 looks like a perfect dome, T-62 looks like a pear

This is a nice thread.

What are these launchers?
>>
>>34143025
"Volcano" launchers.

A local modification consisting of a large (~410mm) warhead mated to a 122mm rocket. Inaccurate but packs a huge warhead and cheap to make.
