It's an effective system that devastates its targets. Between the TOS-1A and FAB 500s, Russians have burned though over 5000 invaders in the past week.
That's great and all, but it's not a flamethrower, nor is it a giant flamethrower slapped on a tank. They're just calling it a flamethrower even though it's a rocket propelled incendiary explosive. Which annoys me greatly both for the mislabeling and my love for flamethrowers. Still though, might as well learn what they're putting in them, it might be useful later. Well unless it's just gasoline being blasted through the air with a primary explosive to create the giant fireball.

I can see the meaning twisting a bit in the translation, but it pretty much does throw a flame that only ignites after reaching the target. Misleading in English though.
Good thing I didn't know about thermobaric weapons as a kid. All my experiments were just direct explosions with no distribution before ignition.
No. A: It was mostly a joke, but you're autistic. B: I'm annoyed because it sounded like they made a cool new weapon, but instead just made another boring one.
