Anti-Junta Forces Reveal Home-Grown MLRS Technical, Myanmar
Published 1 years ago
This video depicts anti-junta fighters in the Kayin State of Myanmar, who are being familiarized with a new home-grown MLRS mounted on a pickup truck bed. This weapon system was apparently designed and built by the Sawdragon Drone Force, which has had successes designing, building and deploying drones for recon and bombing roles. With this being the first known reveal of the system, it probably won't enter production (a term loosely used, considering resources available to a jungle guerilla force) for a few months.
Often, the most cost-effective way to go about R&D is to give the guys in the field a problem and let them solve it. This was repeatedly proven true during GWOT, and continues to be the case in both Ukraine and Myanmar.
