    Cool Names For Russian Military Equipment

    15
    Posted on December 17, 2012 by team

    Sometimes military equipment created in Russia gets vary strange names. While Germany has “Leopard” tank, Israel has its battle tank “Merkava”, America has its “Abrams” tank, France  – its “Leclerc” named after famous generals… In Russia we call it different. Let us see how…




    Tank T-72B “Rogatka” (“Slingshot”).

    Self-propelled howitzer 2 S1 “Gvozdika” (“Clove”).

    Self-propelled howitzer 2 S3 “Acacia”.

    Mortar carrier 2 S4 “Tulip”.

    Long-range self-propelled gun 2 S5 “Hyacinth”.

    Long-range self-propelled gun 2 S7 “Peony”. It is able to shoot with nuclear warheads.

    How do you like the bouquet?

    Anti-tank missiles 9 M14 M “Malyutka” (“Baby”).

    Anti-tank missiles “Сhrysanthemum”.

    Antitank missile “Metis” (“Half-Breed”) with a night sight “Mulatto”.

    Heavy tank support combat vehicle “Frame”.

    Coastal defense missile system “Ball”.

    The world most powerful 30-barrel propelled flamethrower TOS-1 “Buratino” (“Pinocchio”).

    Grenade launcher GP-30 is called “Obuvka” (“Footwear”).

    82-mm automatic mortar 2 B9 “Vasilyok” (“Cornflower”).

    Company mortar 2 B14 “Tray”.

    Mortar 2 S12 “Sledge”.

    Intercontinental ballistic missile “Courier” with nuclear warheads.

    Intercontinental ballistic missileRT-23 UTTKH “Well Done” with ten nuclear warheads.

    Nuclear submarine of project 705 “Lira” (“Lyre”).

    Fire control system “Cabbage”.

    Container system for rockets control “Phantasmagoria”.

    Propelled gun “Condensator” (“Capacitor”).

    And the last, but not less worst – grenade 7 P24 “Podkidysh” (“Foundling”).

    Who knows more examples?

      The US armed forces at present without a doubt with so-called ‘Christian’ pastoral input, now even put 32JN8:12 on their guns. After this, possibly DU, or spelled out, depleted uranium filled missiles with the message Ps.18:17?

      That’s a lovely bouquet to play with. Acacia looks like she’d be kind of fun to drive to work.
