The Special Operations Forces of Ukraine demonstrated the launches of British Brimstone anti-tank missiles made by MBDA UK.

The branch’s official YouTube channel released the video footage.

The video captured the launch of three Brimstone missiles of an unknown version.

The rocket launcher with three missiles is mounted on the basis of a civilian truck.

They are mounted on an aircraft launcher which is also used by Royal Air Force Typhoon fighter jets.

Militarnyi previously reported on the arrangement of the Brimstone mobile launcher.

The old video with launches captured Brimstone 1 missiles using an active seeker to aim at the target.

The missiles of the first version are designed for a maximum launch range of up to 10 km from the ground.

In November 2022, the United Kingdom also transferred missiles of the new version, Brimstone 2, to Ukraine. Their main feature is the combined guidance system, which uses an active seeker, as well as a semi-active laser beam guidance system.

The new missile is able to cover a distance of up to 16 km using the ground launcher, and the use of a combined homing head increases the probability of kill.

The United Kingdom provided Ukraine with about 600 Brimstone missiles in both versions. In the future, a transfer of an additional number of these missiles can be expected.

Militarnyi previously reported that RBSL and MBDA integrated the Brimstone missile launcher into the Boxer armored vehicle.

The Boxer Overwatch is designed to both support the maneuvering and advancing forces and disrupt the enemy’s advance.

The salvo launch allows the armored vehicle to achieve a coordinated effect on several targets with the ability to fire according to the “shoot and forget” principle in any weather.
