RE: Purple Shovel Exposed in Illegal Weapons Smuggling Operations

in #weapons-smuggling7 years ago

The Konkurs Missle Launcher sounds deadly. Was it made in use to attack people or tanks?
Sad to see they were under strict orders and had to result to using old weaponary which inertably led to the death of an ex navy member.
Truly distressing to see how much the contractors are forced to send so much weaponary to warzones.
I wonder what Russia's funding is like
Thanks @v4vapid for this really interesting post

Thanks for reading. From what I read the Konkrus Missiles were anti-tank versions, but who knows where they ended up and how they were used (rebels, ISIS, etc.).
I don't really think contractors are 'forced' to send weapons anywhere. They're driven by profits and they also subcontract to other companies who made deals in Eastern Europe.
I think one solution is to do away with private contractors...they are a big part of the problem.
