Seems to have a cold/soft launch before hard launch. Quite a big missile

🟡 مليشيا الدعم السريع تستخدم صاروخا مضادا للدروع شبيها بصاروخ سبايك الإسرائيلي

🟡 يتميز الصاروخ بقدرته على الارتفاع بعد الإطلاق والمناورة فوق العوائق البصرية مثل التلال أو المباني ، يتتبع المشغل مساره عبر كاميرا مثبتة في مقدمة الصاروخ ، حتى يتم التعرف على الهدف المختبئ خلف العائق ، ليقوم المشغل بعد ذلك بتوجيه الصاروخ بدقة حتى إصابة الهدف

🟡 The Rapid Support Forces militia uses an anti-tank missile similar to the Israeli Spike missile.

🟡 The missile is characterized by its ability to rise after launch and maneuver over visual obstacles such as hills or buildings. The operator tracks its path via a camera mounted on the front of the missile until the target hidden behind the obstacle is identified. The operator then guides the missile precisely until it hits the target.

have never seen anything like that before

#

That's usually a feature of stuff like GLATGMs but they're not usually top-attack.

also like

#

this one is unusually chunky

#

such an odd design

#

no tripod launched top attack/NLOS ATGM has matching features with that missile

#

The launch tube isn't too dissimilar to some of the Chinese ones (but then again it's literally a tube), and they're generally a little wider with smaller wings @quaint nebula.

#

But they do very much still have wings.

#

LAHAT doesn't have wings and can be launched from the ground but that looks absolutely nothing like LAHAT.

#

I wonder if its anything experimental

#

like some UAE stuff

elfin stone
#

Whatever it is it can thrust vector

#

The only other ATGM that can do that is swing fire

quaint nebula
#

But I wonder if that's true

#

Sudan does have Swingfires but that doesn't fit the attack profile at all.

#

Also the launcher is totally wrong:
