Designed to destroy tanks, including those fitted with explosive reactive armour, bunkers, entrenched troops as well as small-scale targets. The system can be fitted to a variety of tracked and wheeled vehicles, as well as serving as a standalone, portable system.

Missile

The launcher fires Kornet missiles with tandem shaped charge HEAT warheads to defeat tanks fitted with ERA or with high explosive/incendiary warheads, for use against bunkers, fortifications and fire emplacements. Armour penetration for the HEAT warhead is 1400 mm and the missiles range is 6 km.

The missile has semi-automatic command-to-line-of-sight (SACLOS) laser beamriding guidance, flying along the line of sight to engage the target head on in a direct attack profile.

Launcher

The tripod launcher includes optical sight, thermal sight, laying drives, missile launch mechanism and missiles kept in storage and transport containers. The operator uses either optical or thermal sight to detect and track the target.

Vehicular Mounts

The vehcile mount is a four missile "pod", with four tubes inside a steel container. This conatiner is attached half a meter away from the tank, held out by arms. It is fired using internal tank systems, and the missile is compatable with most computer systems and mounts. If not, vehicles may be delivered to be custom fitted. It can also be attached to jeeps.
