Advanced Modeling AMC48011-5 UB-32A-24 57 mm rocket launcher set

The UB-32 is a Soviet, and now Russian, 57mm unguided missile launcher from the Cold War and modern times. The presented launcher was developed primarily for carrying S-5 missiles and is capable of carrying 32 such missiles. The launcher is 208 cm long with a total diameter of 46.4 cm. The weight of the empty launcher is 103 kg, and when loaded it reaches 265 kg. The presented launcher entered service in the Soviet armed forces in the 1970s as a supplement to the UB-16 launcher, dedicated to the same family of unguided missiles. Compared to the UB-16, the UB-32 launcher was obviously heavier, able to take twice as many missiles, but also improved reliability. In the armed forces of the USSR and the Russian Federation, it was or is used on such aircraft as: Mi-17, Mi-24, MiG-21, MiG-23, Su-7 or Su-25. Launchers of this type were used in combat in the initial phase of the war in Afghanistan (1979-1989), but their use is also certified during the civil wars in Libya and Syria, which have been going on since 2011. In both countries, launchers were most often used on vans.
