Armenia Unveiled Nizak Anti-Tank Missile System, Which Resembles the Chinese GAM-102LR

Armenia unveiled the new Nizak anti-tank missile system, which resembles the Chinese GAM-102LR system in appearance.

This was reported by analyst Hov Nazaretyan.

Thanks to a new video from the Armenian Ministry of Defense demonstrating the anti-tank missile system, the system’s resemblance to the GAM-102LR can be seen.

The anti-tank system was first unveiled at a parade of Armenian military equipment on May 28.

The system’s possible Chinese origin is linked to the strategic partnership between China and Armenia, which became the first country in the region to attain this status in 2023.

On May 28, Armenia also demonstrated Chinese CH-4 Rainbow reconnaissance and strike drones, the procurement of which had not previously been officially announced.
