The Pantsir anti-aircraft missile system has undergone a refinement procedure. As a result, it will now be able to hit targets for which it was not previously designed.
According to the developers, after upgrading, the Pantsir will be able to effectively destroy low-speed maneuvering targets. Tests of advanced air defense systems passed on time. The Pantsir is now equipped with an improved missile. Acceptance tests of the upgraded ZRPK Pantsir-S1M are planned to be held before the end of 2019.
Recall, the anti-aircraft missile-gun complex of the “Pantsir” type of land and sea bases is intended for close cover of civilian and military facilities from all modern and promising means of air attack in any climatic and radio-electronic environment day and night. The complex can also protect an object from ground and surface threats.
