China Will Sell HJ-12 Missiles That Can Destroy America’s Best Tanks -- Epoch Times
China's new anti-tank weapons could end up in ISIS hands
The Chinese regime is putting the finishing touches on its new HJ-12 anti-tank missiles. Its soldiers will be toting around the new weapons, which can destroy modern third-generation tanks, and China is also planning to sell the portable missile systems.
The HJ-12 is an anti-tank weapon. It’s able to target tanks close to 2.5 miles away, according to China Daily, the English edition of China’s state-owned People’s Daily.
China’s previous-generation anti-tank weapons have shown up in the hands of rebel groups around the world, including with ISIS. The video below shows Islamic combatants, allegedly with ISIS, firing a Chinese-made HJ-8 anti-tank missile at a Syrian tank.

My Comment: Do not be surprised when these weapons start showing up in war zones .... and soon.
Hard to tell, but the HJ-8 looks like it got a mobility kill. Looks like the crew bailed out and no fire...
ReplyDeleteT-72?
Orion
If the going gets to tough for manned tanks send in drone tanks.
ReplyDeleteThe tether for a drone can be cut or the drone can be outright taken over.
Better yet sending Bolos. It is stupid I know, but who would have thought much about drone 40 years ago? Of course a real Bolo would not look like a land battleship, which have been made and were last seen in Finland (2 or 3 turrets) or in Hitler's dreams.
