Air defense targets and new missiles
The Tactical Missile Armament Corporation (KTRV, a member of Soyuzmash of Russia) will present a range of aviation weapons in Kronstadt. Among them are the X-31PD anti-radar missile, the X-31AD and X-35UE anti-ship missiles, the APR-3ME anti-submarine missile, the X-59MK air-to-surface missile and the X-59M2E missile from the Ovod-ME missile system. Visitors to the exhibition will also see a multi-purpose missile of the modular type X-38MLE with a laser homing head.
Among other things, the corporation will present seven universal homing torpedoes: the universal deep-sea homing torpedo UGST, the small-sized thermal torpedo MTT, electric ET-1E and TE-2, as well as the torpedo MPTE and anti-torpedo ATE from the small-sized anti-submarine complex "Paket-E/NK". The universal small-sized UMT torpedo will also be presented at the exhibition. The corporation's exposition will also include three radar stations for monitoring the Northern Sea Route.
One of the new products of the salon is a mini-rocket for the Pantsir missile defense system developed by the High-Precision Complexes holding (part of Rostec). As the state corporation emphasizes, it is specially designed to combat drones and other small aerial targets. Another solution for air defense is the Airspace Control System developed by the mentioned holding, capable of detecting and escorting drones at a distance of up to 30 km.
At the state corporation's stand, visitors will also see a marine version of the Pantsir and specialized small arms, including a PP-2000 submachine gun and a two-medium special ADS submachine gun for combat swimmers.

Resurs is designed to protect surface ships from attacks by manned and unmanned aerial attack vehicles in the near range, including those flying at extremely low altitudes. It includes 9M96E and 9M100E missiles. The Shtil-1 is designed for omnidirectional collective defense of formations of ships and convoys of ships from air attacks and is equipped with a 9M317ME missile.
Also, visitors of the salon will be able to get acquainted with a sample of an air target with a turbojet engine from the universal target training complex (UMTC) "Adjutant" - the most modern target system for the preparation of air defense calculations.
Deep-sea camera and monitoring for ships
