| Source measurement | The original 9M113 with a single-charge warhead can penetrate 600 mm of rolled homogeneous armor (RHA).[source]9M113 Konkurs · Development; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The system uses a gas generator to push the missile out of the launch tube. The gas also exits from the rear of the launch tube in a similar manner to a recoilless rifle . The missile leaves the launch tube at 80 meters per second, and is quickly accelerated to 200 meters per second by its solid fuel motor. This initial high speed reduces the missile's deadzone, since it can be launched directly at the target, rather than in an upward arc. In flight, the missile spins at between five and seven revolutions per second.[source]9M113 Konkurs · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage 9M113M Konkurs-M (NATO: AT-5B Spandrel B ) Tandem warhead – with extended explosive probe. The warhead penetration is 750–800 mm vs RHA. Adopted in 1991. Missile 9M113M 1990. Tandem (800 mm (behind a layer of ERA)). 4,000 m (3500 m night (passive)).[source]9M113 Konkurs · Models; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage | — |
