ha, ha..... I regularly played Rusisa in red dragon/ARMA 3, I'd rather face T72M1 or T72M2's instead of real vehicles.
When T72 chassis came in flavors other than die, I'd rather build distance. I've read enough from Janes's book to be not on the receiving end.

Russian Rockets are not particularly accurate, thermobaric are like nukes though so they only have to get close. Still, the range on these is pretty short as well. Range plus the need for drones to spot the round detonating kind of tells me the accuracy is really bad. Probably more a psychological weapon than practical at this point against U.S. Forces. T-72 chasis can be challenging to engage due to it's low profile but then they messed that up with this big box rocket launcher with flat sides on top.

Didn’t seem to frighten the Afganis enough to surrender. If fact, as I recall, the Russians Didi’d out of there dragging their armor behind them.
