Israel completes testing of new "Iron Sting" mortar ammunition with laser and GPS guidance

The Israel Defense Forces will soon receive a new laser-guided and GPS-guided mortar system. According to the Israeli military department, the new development was presented on Sunday, March 14.

The new high-precision firing system, using a laser and GPS-guided mortar shell, was named Iron Sting. Its development was carried out by Elbit Systems by order of the Israeli Ministry of Defense, the work was carried out for about 10 years.

As explained in the defense department, the 120-mm mortar ammunition is intended for the Cardom recoilless mortar mounted on the M113 armored personnel carrier, or the Cardom Spear mortar system mounted on the Hummer SUV. It allows you to fire mortar with an accuracy previously inaccessible to conventional mortars.

According to the developers, the accuracy of the mortar ammunition is comparable to that of a guided missile. It avoids collateral damage.

The press service of the Israeli Defense Ministry clarified that the ammunition has already passed all the necessary tests, its tests have been completed, and the issue of the start of mass production is being resolved.

Learn materiel! For a long time there have been 300-mm rounds for Tornado-S and 122-mm for Tornado-G.
But on the fig they are needed for 120-mm mortars, if the firing range there is no more than 7 km - this is of course a question! It is much better to use a semi-active laser seeker here, as on the Kitolov and Krasnopol. Although, if there is nowhere to put money .......

The range of the Iron Sting mortar artillery mine is 1–12 km, depending on the barrel of the mortar. Three operating modes, GPS / IMU, SAL + GPS / IMU and SAL + IMU, provide reliable capabilities in all combat scenarios. Iron Sting is equipped with a laser homing sensor capable of working with a standard pulse (NATO STANAG 3722) and a CW coded laser diode (lightweight and inexpensive, suitable for small drones and UAVs).

Taking into account the sharp decrease in the consumption of unguided ammunition, this will drastically reduce the burden on logistics.

The funny thing is that a projectile with a semi-active laser seeker can provide higher accuracy compared to projectiles with satellite navigation! This is such a weirdness ...

Israel is the fourth largest exporter of diamonds in the world and holds 9,25% of the world market, which is estimated annually at 116 billion.
One of the country's largest employers is Israel Aerospace Industries, which mainly manufactures products for aviation, space and defense. the company's order book was US $ 11,4 billion.
Israel has a population of 9,1 million, with a total export of $ 58,4 billion in 2019 is roughly $ 6500 per inhabitant.

For a long time there have been 300-mm rounds for Tornado-S and 122-mm for Tornado-G.

An adequate addition to what they already have from Rafale in feces. 122 mm, 160 mm, 227 mm.
And it must be borne in mind that the EPIK (Electro-Optical Precision Integration Kit) unit increases the range.

An interesting question, we will probably find out in 10 years more. For example:

The development of the Spike NLOS rocket started back in the late seventies, and in 1981 she was put into service Israel Defense Forces. However, this system remained secret for a long time. Its existence was announced only in 2010. At the same time, the rocket was offered to potential foreign buyers.

Most likely they provided the required accuracy. Each additional 10 meters of accuracy increases the development hemorrhoids several times.

MOSCOW, 15 March - RIA Novosti. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met with a delegation from the Lebanese movement Hezbollah, the Russian Foreign Ministry told RIA Novosti.
Answering a question about the meeting held in Moscow on Monday, the Russian Foreign Ministry said: "We confirm the fact of the meeting."
The ministry did not add any details to what was said.

And Dosi recalls with satisfaction how the Israeli reservist-major was furious at the mention of the Russian "Cornet", which smashed one of the dugouts of his company in Lebanon and sent a detachment of presumptuous Jews to the forefathers. Duck when it was ... just over 10 years ago. Apparently after that, they began to develop, and we already had the "Cornet". Modern ATGM "Kornet" has a range of 8 km. Give its capabilities and accuracy many times better. So there is still something to answer the mines. There are mines and shells. Let the Jews think they are the smartest. We are not sorry.

A simple scheme, in the dimensions of a standard fuse (well, it can be a little longer), costing a dozen bucks, a movable limb, a remote key, we set a detonation at a height of 5-10 meters ... and the losses of an entrenched enemy can multiply.
Yes, this is not an expensive guided munition, but also not a simple mine, in which half of the fragments go into the ground a meter from the explosion.

I would very much like to and I think that the specialists are already concerned ...

[rocket757]

Hard. A full-fledged electronic warfare is not close to the front line, there remains a bed satellites ???

[ironic]

Electronic warfare on corrected mines? Oh well. It will not help to cut off the connection in the area stupidly.

[rocket757]

Mines are corrected / guided by GPS, as indicated in the article. It is unprecedented to influence him ...

[ironic]

It is also corrected with a laser. Yes, I saw the unseen that the Kazakhs brought to us on the course of anti-terror. Which I don't remember, but there is a lot of power, there is little selectivity. In a real situation - firewood.

[rocket757]

Who saw what ... when there is a battle in urban development, from the laser to the point ... like a goat of milk, DUST.

[ironic]

And how did our pilots plant laser-guided bombs in the already partially destroyed neighborhoods of Beirut? Probably they just didn't know that there was dust.

[rocket757]

Who and what put / laid there ...... destroyed when that and the moment when there is a battle, i.e. dust in a column, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE, in time and so on.
In general, EVERYTHING, educate yourself elsewhere.

[ironic]

And at the time of the bombing, the dust is not a pillar and the fires from the previous raid are also extinguished instantly. The spot of illumination is of course washed out by smoke and dust, but this does not mean that the capture system will immediately lose it. Failure to lock the target can, of course, occur, so guidance is duplicated. But the disruption of both GPS and laser guidance until the target is completely lost, this is already from the field of statistics of standard deviations, otherwise such ammunition would simply not be relevant. In any battle, smoke and dust immediately appear.

Good time!

I don't know what its firing range is, but I think it's not great, and why make everything so complicated ...

Up to 12 km. A standard 120 mm mine has up to 8 km.
Complicate? On the contrary, they simplify. Do you need artillery support in urban areas tens of meters away from you? Send the coordinates of the target or simply show it with a laser designator and the target will be quickly hit. And no one will understand where it came from, as a mortar in a jeep. Less than a minute to deploy a couple of shots and fold and leave the place ...

[rocket757]

In urban areas, where the battle is going on, dust can stand in a pillar .... laser guidance is not always effective.

[ironic]

Up to 12 km. In order not to blame everyone in a row, then it is necessary.

[Proton]

Mines are laser-guided (illuminated) and we have (Edge) in our arsenal.
The ammunition is good and necessary, but the price is high.
It is expensive to carry out exercises with such a mine.
Although everything is relative.

In the near future, artillery BPs will approach ICBMs in cost. Even now, when fired like this, consider the "Mercedes" from the barrel flew out.

Do you still live by the principle - mothers still give birth?

I don't live by this principle. Do not give your conjectures for my principles.
I just gave out the actual state of affairs - this mine is very expensive compared to the "stupid" mine.

Please explain your statement.

A more accurate projectile makes it possible to more guaranteed to destroy the enemy's manpower. Accordingly, there will be more victims. Otherwise, why develop them. Or do you think that only Israelis are people, and everyone else is consumable?

It is necessary to distinguish the enemy's losses abouttons of peaceful civilians not participating in hostilities... For this, we are developing high precision и very expensive means of destruction adversary without harming the civilian population.

[ironic]

The usual philosophy is to knock out the brains with gravitational machines or Grads. At worst, Krasnopol may come to mind. An amazing worldview in general. Infantry in a cardboard armored personnel carrier is also normal. But it's cheap. Coffins are seen in the price.

Who told you that? You are not comparing the cost of a single ammunition, but the cost of hitting a target. How many "stupid" mines do you need to hit a pinpoint target?

Damn, well, how not to joke over the top photo. Rope with knots , lag is, I tell you the truth. The gunner counted out a couple of cables for the rope, "whoa horse". ... Charging of course will come up with a normal one. Do not charge it constantly with fart steam. The loader's hat is cool. Damn, why is the rope made of pieces tied? What, the shekels ended on a normal halyard.

For those who are not in the know: people work in a desert outfit. A valve is visible on the back, and a mesh under it. On the front of the hat there is a dark rectangle - also a mesh, so that the sweat evaporates and it is cooler. On the back of the hat there is a curtain falling down the neck so that it does not burn out in the sun.
The rope is in bundles, apparently of some size for a note. Don't run a tape measure if you need to measure something every time.
The mockery is not credited.

In Donbass, it would not hurt to put the Edge with Voentorg. For filigree response to ghouls. True, the calculation of the illumination ... you will not envy this. There should be steel Faberges.

There are 2 types in Azerbaijan, the first systems of the "Cardom" model on mini Mercedes trucks (in the first video.) In the second video Spear mk2, for a long time there are corrected ammunition for them, but not laser ones. The Spear mk2 has a highly computerized fire control system that is superbly accurate. Can fire 360 ​​°, range 10 km.

What are some troubles with iron in Israel? That "iron" dome, then the "iron" sting ... Excess or shortage?

Well, damn it! They took it off the tongue! I just wanted to write that they have some kind of strange craving for iron ...

I naively believed that there is a craving for GOLD!

But he also noted the corporate identity of the Israelis. And without exception: the "iron dome" is made by "Raphael", and the "iron sting" is made by "Elbit".

Quote: Canecat

We are used to working on squares with the full breadth of the Russian soul,

In order to work on the areas, it is necessary to somehow achieve secrecy and massiveness of funds. And no one knows how to achieve this. And sometimes this is not possible at all. And then 2-3 relatively transportable and stealthy mortars can destroy up to 1 enemy positions within 2-10 minutes. Then quickly move 100-200 m and destroy the otvetku from there.

[riwas]

81-mm "Merlin" with radar seeker MMV (Great Britain, firing range 4,5 km) and 120-mm "Strix" with IR seeker (Sweden, firing range 7,5 km with an additional charge) have cumulative warheads and are intended in the first turn to destroy armored vehicles in the most vulnerable upper part, where the armor is thinnest. They complement ATGMs.

[riwas]

120mm designed for Cardom recoilless mortar

Not recoilless, but recoil.

The new complex of mortar weapons was named CARDOM (Computerised Autonomous Recoil rapid Deployed Outrange Mortar - "Computerized autonomous recoilable rapid deployment mortar with increased firing range").

The price will do little. It is more important to understand what is the difference in the number of mines required for guaranteed destruction of an object, between a conventional and a "smart mine"
