The 3VD35 protective aerosol ammunition was developed by the Central Scientific Research Institute of Precision Engineering (TsNIITochmash). Ammunition caliber - 76 mm, length - 290 mm, weight - 1,8 kg. Application temperature range - from -50 to +55 degrees Celsius.
As stated, the optoelectronic countermeasure ammunition is fired towards the enemy and creates an aerosol curtain capable of covering armored vehicles from high-precision weapons with laser, optical and thermal guidance systems. It is emphasized that this ammunition is capable of hiding an object from both aviation weapons and anti-tank missiles of third-generation missile systems, including Javelin systems.
