In Poland: New ATGM "Pirate" can be used at any time of the day

35

Poland announced its readiness for serial production of new Pirat anti-tank missile systems. The publication was noticed in Ukraine, saying that this ATGM has “Ukrainian roots”. This refers to the cooperation of the Polish company Mesko with the Ukrainian state-owned enterprise Luch.

ATGM "Pirate" is created using the technology, which is implemented by "Luch" on another anti-tank missile system "Korsar". The "Pirate" and "Corsair" not only have similar names, but also a technical base, including a laser targeting system.



The Polish press noted that Telesystem-Mesko, together with partners, has completed work on an updated laser guidance system for the Pirat ATGM complex. The new system received the designation CLU-P, which stands for Command Launch Unit - Pirat.

Polish press with reference to manufacturers:

The new laser guidance system will influence the tactics of using anti-tank systems by anti-tank units of our army. It should be noted and the possibility of equipping the "Pirates" robotic platforms.

Some characteristics of the "Pirate" ATGM for the variant of use by infantrymen: firing range - up to 2,5 km, length of the launcher - 1180 mm. The mass with the rocket is 15 kg, the caliber of the rocket is 107 mm, the mass of the ATGM is about 10 kg. When aiming at the target, as already noted, a laser designator is used.

The manufacturer claims that the use of anti-tank guided missiles guarantees penetration of armor up to 550 mm, including with reactive armor cover.

In Poland:

New ATGM "Pirate" can be used at any time of the day.



Tests ATGM "Pirate" in Poland began in 2017. During this time, the manufacturer brought the anti-tank complex to mind. Now, Poland is said to be ready to begin mass production and supply to the troops.

      That's where the Americans get the tomohawks?
      And they borrowed them from the Indians.
      And where do the Indians have tomohawks?
      And - this is we, the ancient Ukrainians, having crossed the Atlantic, gave them our axes.
      This is how the American Tomahawk rocket was born.)))

    As I understand it, the Poles "borrowed" in Ukraine something from the arsenals of the local military-industrial complex and now their "novelty" will be sold to all third world countries, pushing the competitor with their elbows.

      It seems that the Poles have designated the Uropovsky ATGM "Corsair" without hesitation as their own, a synonym word. There was "Corsair" - there was "Pirate" fellow

      And by the way - the developer, all the same "Ray" ("Promin").

    In the Polish army, the Pirat ATGM will be used in parallel with a licensed copy of the Israeli Spike-LR ATGM, which has a firing range of up to 4000 m and a combined guidance system. Since the cost of an Israeli development is three times higher than that of the Polish-Ukrainian ATGM, Pirat can become a mass weapon for the Polish infantry.
    The missile is aimed at the target with the help of laser illumination, the beam of which forms a point on the target, into which the missile should hit.



    Unlike Russian and Ukrainian ATGMs, the Polish Pirat is not guided by a direct, but by a reflected laser beam. This solution allows using special guidance algorithms and hitting armored vehicles in the upper projection. After launch, the rocket can rise to a height of over 100 m, and when approaching, attack the target from above.
    This is the implemented new-school idea. Within the framework of the project, the Luch State Design Bureau is responsible for the design of the rocket as a whole as a carrier, a block of aerodynamic rudders and an autopilot (in cooperation with CRW Telesystem-Mesko), in turn, CRW Telesystem-Mesko is responsible for gyroscopic stabilized the guidance head, the autopilot (in cooperation with the Luch State Design Bureau) and all optoelectronics, and MESKO - by the warhead, engines and others (including PU). The maximum firing range in the infantry version of the Pirat ATGM is 2500 m. The missile is equipped with three types of warheads weighing 2,5 kg - cumulative, thermobaric and high-explosive fragmentation.

    The ATGM sighting complex includes a day and round-the-clock thermal imaging sight, a laser target pointer, an electronic compass and a GPS receiver. The rocket flight time is 12 seconds. The warhead guarantees penetration at the level of 550 mm RHA, covered by ERA.

      Purely in terms of firing range, the pirate / corsair's classmate is not the Spike-LR, but the Spike-MR, which shoots up to 2500m, at least from the shoulder, without a tripod. Or even lighter SR, but there is up to 1500m range.

        Well, tady and ATGM "Bumblebee" 60 years old in "classmates" can be written ... by range! The "Spikes" have a thermal imaging seeker, while the "Pirate" is of Ukrainian origin ... either a "laser-beam" or a semi-active laser seeker! In fact, the Poles have a progression to rework someone else's! For example, recently it was written about the development in Poland of the Piranha air missile launcher with a seeker based on the Stinger! As for Russian developments, I regret that we did not continue the development of "Autonomy"!

      I don't quite understand, 550mm. is it with or without remote sensing?

      The reflected signal of the LCC in smoke will look very good, and even with the elementary setting of the smoke screen by the tank, it will be just great. The probability of hitting is within the statistical error.

      It's not even a b3, but just a t-72b, because b3 is the Bshka upgrade. With DZ there is generally a dead number for a Polish craft.
