Regime Tank on Overwatch Destroyed by TOW Missile
Published 2 years ago
Members of al-Izza in Kafr Nabudah utilize a CIA supplied BGM-71 TOW missile to remove a Syrian Arab Army T-72 that has established a position of overwatch.
This video was recorded in 2015. It shows rebels from the Free Syrian Army destroying an SAA T-72 in on the top of a hill near Hama, Syria. At this point in the conflict, the threat of ATGMs was well known by the Syrian Arab Army, they simply failed to change up their tactics and as a result lost a large enough number of tanks that the FSA would later start using these munitions to strike individual troops and unarmored logistics vehicles.
