IGLA-S man-portable air defence missile system

Purpose: the system is designed to engage front line aircraft, helicopters, cruise missiles and UAVs under direct visibility conditions and in the night time, head-on and tail chase, in background clutter and thermal countermeasures environment.

IGLA-S MANPADS is a new-generation system featuring considerably extended firing range and enhanced kill probability against aerial targets and possessing a new quality for this class of systems - high engagement effectiveness against small-size targets like cruise missiles and UAVs.

Main features of IGLA-S system:

•         enhanced kill probability against aerial targets and increased warhead lethality due to:

◦         increased HE quantity (by 1.5 times as compared to IGLA system);

◦         in-depth impact detonation of the missile warhead adjusting the rate of embedding to the approach speed;

◦         proximity detonation of the missile warhead (in the event of mishit) with optimization of the detonation point;

◦         detonation of the sustainer's remaining solid propellant;

◦         advanced missile accuracy characteristics.

•         extended firing range of up to 6.0 km as compared with 5.2 km for IGLA system due to missile improved aerodynamic characteristics;

•         night firing capability due to application of a night vision device holder and a light weight night vision device development.

•         easy installation on various platforms

•Unified modules are the base for:

◦         formation of "air-air" guided weapon system;

◦         formation of a mobile air defence missile system of high covertness;

◦         combination with AD gun systems;

◦         combination with medium and long range air defence systems;

◦         formation of shipborne air defence systems.

 

IGLA-S system is a successor of IGLA missile system family outperforming them in effectiveness, reliability, service life and survivability and retaining their best merits:

shoulder firing by a single gunner;

"fire-and-forget" concept;

high resistance to background clutter and thermal countermeasures;

easy aiming and launching;

easy maintenance and training;

high covertness of use;

retained operability in extreme operational environment.

* At the Customer's choice the simulator can be completed with any simulated combat equipment available in the set with appropriate software.

- The possibility of intensive mastering and maintaining MANPADS combat operation skills without using operational missiles and additional facilities to simulate target environment.

- much higher training rate as compared with traditional training aids due to independence of weather, time of the day and season.

- wide range of reproduced visual and audio scenarios at a launching site and target types against various background, at any season, time of the day and weather.

- objective evaluation, recording and replay of training cycles to analyze its results and identify errors in the operator's performance.

- simplicity and convenience for operation.
