Just an update.. Doesn't make it less impressive though

1. The missile is the Swedish Bofors RBS-56 BOFORS BILL2 - the first 'top-attack' SACLOS ATGM in the world.

2. The date is around 1986 and the location is the BOFORS AB live-firing test range in Sweden - you can hear the Swedish WOC if you listen hard.

3. The target tank is a retired Centurion and is it radio-controlled.

4. It has doctored munitions to give an impressive result.

5. The clip can be seen on the video 'World Missiles and Missile Systems'.q

I was thinking how stupid the tank commander was....motoring in a wide open field, by himself, no ground protection..basically a sitting duck. Glad only the robot got hurt. :tank:
