Historical and Technical Information

The B-8M1 launchers are Soviet-origin modules designed for firing S-8 80 mm unguided rockets. Initially mounted on combat helicopters, during armed conflicts (e.g., in Afghanistan, Syria, or Ukraine) they have also been encountered on vehicles such as MT-LB, UAZ, BMP-2, BTR-70, and even on civilian pickups and trucks like the Toyota Hilux or URAL. Such solutions have been in use since the late 1980s, throughout the post-Cold War period up to the present day and within asymmetric conflicts.
