The "Buratino" was the main thermobaric delivery system that the Russians used against Grozny. It was first combat-tested in Afghanistan's Panjshir valley in the early 1980s during the Soviet- Afghan War. Built by the Omsk Transmash design bureau, Buratino is a 30-barrel 220mm multiple rocket launcher system mounted on a T-72 tank chassis. (See Figure 1a & 1b). It is found in the chemical troops' separate flame thrower battalions. It is an observed-fire system with a maximum effective range of 3.5 kilometers (other sources say it has a maximum range of five kilometers). The minimum range is 400 meters. The rocket mounts an incendiary or a thermobaric warhead. The zone of ensured destruction from a Buratino salvo is 200 x 400 meters.10 The official designation of the Buratino is the TOS-1.11 The thermobaric warhead is filled with a combustible liquid. The liquid is most likely filled with powdered tetranite.12 When the warhead explodes, the liquid is vaporized creating an aerosol cloud. When the cloud mixes with oxygen, it detonates, first creating a high temperature cloud of flame followed by a crushing overpressure.

 

Not the Buratino specifically but Russian thermobaric bombs;

[Boberro]

Cool! I always liked missiles\rockets spamming :D

[DarkWanderer]

No, Boberro, this is NOT what you can carry on your F-15...

[Boberro]

I meant it looks cool when they fire in one time so many rockets ^^. Especially when they are in a column.

 

PS. I don't fly F-15.

Is it also the one called Fuel-to-Air bomb?

 

Yeah, I'd call it that. Fuel aerosol and such...

This vehicle will not be present in DCS: BS.

But can we get a better visual effect to the Fuel-to-Air bomb?
