Tests of short and medium range air defense systems HISAR continue in Turkey
Turkey is undergoing tests of the medium-range and short-range anti-aircraft missile system HISAR. According to the plans of the military department of Turkey, the complex should be adopted by the Turkish army in the near future.
Concerns Aselsan and Roketsan are jointly developing for the Turkish army two versions of the air defense system - HISAR-A with a range of up to 15 kilometers and HISAR-O - up to 25 kilometers. The HISAR-A variant is located on the chassis of the Turkish BMP FNSS ACV-30 (modified M113 extended by one roller). The transfer from the marching position to the combat position (and back) takes less than a minute, after which the vehicle is ready to fire at a distance of up to 15 km and up to 5 km.
The launcher, radar and HISAR-O control point with a maximum range of 25 km and 10 km reach are mounted on a Mercedes-Benz Zetros 2733 all-terrain vehicle. Both launchers have six missiles in disposable transport and launch containers.
It is reported that the NISAR air defense system is capable of firing at 360 degrees and hitting planes and helicopters, UAVs, cruise missiles within its radius of action. The missile complex has an infrared homing and is equipped with a high-explosive fragmentation warhead. When fired, the rocket starts up vertically, radio command guidance is used on the march, and infrared at the final.
SAM HISAR-A are designed for autonomous work due to the rising mast with a radar target detection and electron-optical system. SAM HISAR-O is designed to work in the battery in conjunction with the fire control system, which includes a mobile radar target detection radar target designation and electron-optical system.
