Indigenous missile-based last-line defense that intercepts ship-attacking sea-skimmer missiles, cruise missiles and drone swarms from ~11 km; the missile tier developed to end dependence on US-made RAM/SeaRAM and to complement the shipboard gun-CIWS layer.
Specifications
- Class: Naval close-in air defense missile system (PDMS)
- Range: ~11 km
- Guidance: Dual-mode — Imaging Infrared (IIR) seeker + passive RF sensor
- Missile diameter: 128 mm
- Missile weight: 75 kg
- Warhead: 10 kg fragmentation effect, proximity fuzed
- Threats: Subsonic/supersonic anti-ship and cruise missiles, UAV, helicopter, aircraft
- Technology base: High-maneuverability round developed on the SUNGUR VSHORAD infrastructure
Beats: Satha çok yakın uçan (sea-skimmer) gemisavar füzeleri — çift modlu IIR+RF arayıcı terminal isabet, Subsonik ve süpersonik seyir füzeleri, Gemiye sokulan İHA/drone sürüsü ve helikopterler, Radar yayan tehdit füzelerini pasif RF alıcısıyla uzaktan tespit ve yönlenme
Loses to: Doygunluk salvosu — eşzamanlı çok hedefte mühimmat/zaman penceresi sınırlı, katmanı tamamlar yerini tutmaz, Uzun ve yüksek menzilli tehdit — ~11 km son-hat menzili kısa kalır, Yoğun RF/IR aldatma (chaff/flare, jammer) terminal arayıcıyı zorlayabilir, Henüz gelistirme/test aşamasında — olgunluk ve seri envanter kanıtı yok
Missile complement to the gun-CIWS: in the innermost layer of ship air defense it extends range beyond the gun CIWS. Passive RF + IIR dual-mode guidance is the defining advantage that increases hit probability against sea-skimming anti-ship missiles.
