IT-1 raketipaak - fotod ja video

2007 IT-1 (vene keeles Истребитель танков–1 – "Istrebitel tankov–1", valgustatud. "tankihävitaja-1′) oli Nõukogude külma sõja raketitank, mis põhines T-62 kerel. Tank tulistas spetsiaalselt projekteeritud 3M7 Drakoni rakette hüpikkanderaketist. Aastatel 1968–1970 oli teenistus väga piiratud. Rakettide miinimumvahemiku tekitatud tanki ümbritsev suur ummikseis koos veetava laskemoona piiratud kogusega muutis selle sõjaväe seas ebapopulaarseks. Samuti oli raketi jaoks vajalik 520 kg juhtimisvarustus ebapraktiline. Lõpuks muudeti paagid taaskasutussõidukiteks. Välja töötati ka turbiinmootoriga versioon nimega IT-1T.

The IT-1 Missile Tank was a Soviet tank destroyer that was designed and built in the 1960s. It was based on the T-62 chassis and armed with a single 3M7 Drakon missile launcher. The IT-1 could fire anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs) at a range of up to 3 km, and had a secondary machine gun for close defense. The IT-1 was intended to provide long-range fire support for tank units, and to engage enemy tanks from a safe distance. However, the IT-1 had several drawbacks that limited its effectiveness and service life. The missile launcher had a long reload time and required the tank to expose its turret to fire. The missiles were vulnerable to electronic countermeasures and had poor accuracy in bad weather conditions. The IT-1 also had a low ammunition capacity of only 15 missiles, and a high cost of maintenance and operation. The IT-1 was produced in small numbers from 1968 to 1970, and was withdrawn from service by the late 1970s. It was replaced by more conventional tank destroyers such as the SU-100P and the BMP-1.
