value | "The 9M123 features a powerful tandem HEAT shaped charge warhead. Estimated peneration is about 1.100 to 1.250 mm RHA behind ERA. This allows it to effectively engage any existing tank from any angle. Alternatively a thermobaric warhead is available for engaging infantry. The maximum effective range of the 9M123 is 6 km. The supersonic flight speed and high quality guidance reportedly result in a high effectiveness at longer ranges." |
