The source called the reason for the high efficiency of the use of missiles to destroy the Ukrainian radar
Russian aviation during a special military operation to destroy Ukrainian radar stations, an aircraft missile showed the highest efficiency. This was told by a source in the Russian defense industry.
High efficiency has been achieved thanks to the new universal head. According to the source, the missile developed by the Tactical Missiles Corporation was equipped with a universal seeker, which allowed it to hit all types of targets, including radar stations. The previous version of the missile had three different guidance heads for use on different targets. At the same time, he did not name the ammunition used by the Russian troops.
- leads TASS source words
In October last year, the high efficiency of missiles for destroying radars, reaching 98%, was already reported. It was about the new high-speed Kh-31PD air-to-radar missile manufactured by the Tactical Missiles Corporation. It is precisely this that is used by Russian Su-35S and Su-30SM fighters to destroy stations, air defense systems, etc. in the SVO zone.
The Kh-31PD anti-radar high-speed missile is a modification of the Kh-31P missile. The main changes - the flight range has been increased to 250 kilometers, three selective heads have been replaced with one broadband one, which jams the entire range of applied and predicted frequencies of a potential enemy's air defense systems. The mass of the warhead has been increased to 110 kg.
As noted, in the course of the SVO, the entire line of means of aviation destruction developed by the KTRV, including promising ones, was tested.
