The Armenian armed forces have conducted live fire exercises with the use of Smerch multiple rocket launchers, a fresh teaser from a military TV program revealed on Monday, September 25.
Smerch systems were for the first time unveiled on September 21, 2016 during a military parade marking the 25th anniversary of Armenia’s independence.
The purchase was envisaged under a $200 million loan agreement with Russia.
Also showcased during the parade were Buk surface-to-air missile systems and Iskander short-range ballistic missile systems, both bought from Russia.
