The upgraded anti-aircraft missile and cannon complex "Pantsir-S1M" will be able to fight any unmanned aerial vehicles, including shock ones. An effective modular air defense network will be built on the basis of the complex.
Bekhan Ozdoev, Industrial director of the arms cluster of Rostec State Corporation, told TASS about this. He added that as a result of the modernization, the capabilities of the "Shell" to counteract all types of drones were significantly improved.
RG wrote that the Pantsir-S1M missile defense system is equipped with new anti-aircraft guided missiles. And its volume of the protected zone has been increased three times, and its secrecy has also been increased. Along with the new missiles, the ZRPC can also use missiles from the Pantsir-S1 complex. Experts said that the upgraded anti-aircraft missile and cannon complex is capable of becoming the basis of tactical air defense.
By the way, this was also appreciated by foreign partners. At the Army-2021 forum, Rosoboronexport signed the first contract for the supply of the Pantsir-S1M missile defense system.
