Anti-air


9M36 Buk SA-11 Gadfly (Russia)

The rapid development of electronic and optronic reconnaissance systems, battle-management and high-precision weapon control systems, as well as electronic countermeasures and other systems has resulted in the concentration of large amounts of electronic and optronic systems in troops which often duplicate one another and affect electromagnetic compatibility considerably increasing the cost of a force grouping. This is why it is expedient to consider the possibility of broadening the scope of tasks fulfilled by offensive or defensive armaments.

Anti-tank


AT - 2 SWATTER

The SWATTER is a radio-guided antitank guided missile with a HEAT (High Explosive, Anti Tank) warhead. The SWATTERs with manual command to line of sight (MCLOS) guidance have the disadvantage that the operator must track target and missile simultaneously and manually guide the missile to the target. The slow flight speed makes evasive action an effective countermeasure, especially at long ranges.
