Rare footage of Russian Tor-M2U surface-to-air missile

December 27, 2015 By administrator

c971101a-37a3-4fbc-951f-800e0e119e0dThe Russian army has released a rare video from a Tor-M2U surface-to-air missile launcher capable of firing while on the move.

According to a Saturday statement released by the Russian Defense Ministry, the launcher was driving at the speed of 25 kilometers per hour (15.5 miles per hour) off-road on a rough terrain when it fired a missile that precisely hit the target.

The short-range Tor missile system was originally designed by the Russian military in mid 70s to operate in all weather conditions and to target airplanes, choppers, cruise missiles, precision guided munitions, unmanned aerial vehicles and even short-range ballistic threats.

Unlike the previous models, the M2U modification of the Tor has the capability of firing on the move, which is considered to be a great advantage and makes it unrivalled since the launcher does not need to stop intermittently to fire.

The new test was carried out this summer at Kapustin Yar test range in northwestern Arkhangelsk region and its video was released in the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Russian Air Defense Forces.

The footage also contains a night test-fire of the S-300 long-range missile system.

The fact that Armenia has S-125 missile systems emerged in a TV story about a machine tools factory that accidentally revealed one of the system’s missile launchers, suggesting that he modernization will be fully or partially implemented in Armenia.

S-125 Pechora’s tactical-technical specifications surpass those of S-125, featuring improved missile range, maximum height, target destruction probability and interference protection.

July 17, 2014 By administrator

New York time report U.S. officials confirmed that a surface-to-air missile shot down the Malaysian airliner at about 30,000 feet based on a partial track of the missile’s final trajectory showing impact with the airliner.
The track was obtained through infra-red sensors on a military spy satellite orbiting the earth, senior US officials said. The satellite, however, was able to detect only the final partial track, not the point of origin.
