    that would give the chance to have a search radar searching but another one or two search radar just listening, with these vehicles switching roles and then moving to keep a good view of the local air space while remaining safe from SEAD aircraft.

    the other vehicles will be handed targets which they can engage on their own in fairly large numbers due to the extra missiles they carry.

    Assuming 8 vehicles to a battery with three having search radars being command vehicles and 5 being missile turrets that means 6 x 30mm twin barrel cannon, plus (24 x 5) + (12 x 3) missiles = 156 ready to fire missiles... which is plenty.

    I completely agree. No what if some of the Pancir-S1 would mix with the Pancir-S1 to form a single multilayer system covering everything up to 40km thus sold as such.

    Pantsir-SM is no more SHORAD, but medium range SAM with similar range as Buk-M1. It doesn't need search radar on every vehicle like SHORAD need, because of shorter range. I think Pantsir-SM will cover a niche between S-350 and Pantsir-S1 in VKO and in PVO VVS.

    For that to be the case there would need to be another vehicle for the Pantsir-SM with a search radar to get target information for the SM to find its targets.


    I suppose in an IAD that they might get target information from the network, but the question is... does this suggest a new structure... I mean BUK has some pretty substantial radar vehicles that operate with it to collect data.... is the Pantsir-S with the search radar intended to be a combined search system and SHORAD that can be attached to any SAM battery to scan for targets and also offer close in defence of enemy munitions?

    Personally I think Pantsir-SM is the same as the 40km range S-350 small missile and would be redundant... except for the greater numbers the SM is carried in.

    the other question is... at 40km what is SMs guidance method... is it still command guided out to 40km? Or have they adapted an ARH MMW radar seeker or IIR seeker or both combined from the HERMES missile system.. in which case they would become more expensive but also more useful... the export tracking radar for Pantsir can handle 3 target tracking channels with the fourth target being engaged optically. The SM clearly has an optical turret and tracking radar but with terminal guidance that means it could target up to 4 targets at a time but the high speed missiles would rapidly get close enough to get a lock releasing guidance channels for more missiles to be launched before the first missiles have impacted the target.

    Personally I think the Pantsirs will all operate together as SHORADs even though the newer SMs can reach 40km I suspect that will be to make the SHORAD more effective by being able to shoot down some launch platforms as well as incoming munitions... easier to shoot down one Apache at 25km than let the Apache fire off all its 16 missiles and then close to try to get you with its gun... 1 target vs 17.

    Well, command guidance is reliable until 60 km more than it radar pointing error become too large to handle. So 40 Km are still fine with command guidance.

    Pantsir-S1 battery radar 1RL123 is enough effective to work with Pantsir-SM. I think Pantsir-SM will keep radio guidance. In my opinion radio guidance is better than ARH, specially in heavy ECM environment and against stealth targets, because in those cases ARH homing head will difficultly see target and lock on it, while with radio guidance, radar doesn't need to see target, it is enough to have visual contact with target and radio guiding channel will guide missile in line of sight. Actually using different types of guidance inside IADS will make it even harder nut for enemy air force.

    against stealth targets, because in those cases ARH homing head will difficultly see target and lock on it,

    Quite true.... you can get the targets precise position via another method then command guidance is just a case of 4D maths... getting longitude, latitude, and altitude to match exactly at one time would be a hit.

    Of course the unification of Hermes and Pantsir-S and Pantsir-SM would be interesting in that you could have a few missiles with GLONASS guidance or IIR guidance or MMW... or indeed all three with the capability of adding laser target marking to the mix as well as much cheaper command guidance missiles and you get all the benefits and can manage the costs as required.

    Pantsir-S and Pantsir-SM could completely replace SHORAD and an SA-6 level missile combination... in fact it could replace the whole Shilka, OSA, KUB system.

    Very exciting as its main missile is very cheap and simple and could be made in enormous numbers.

    Osa.... now that i think about it, i don't think i have ever seen the amphibious version of Pantsir in the water!?

    The issue is that up until now Pantsir has been an air force system.

    Of course tunguska was not amphibious either, and considering TOR is the actual replacement for OSA and it is not amphibious as well.

    If there is a Boomerang or Kurganets based model of Pantsir for army use then perhaps they might be amphibious.

    The Kurganets version in the video looks to be the medium range Pantsir-SM with 45 km range missiles, while the Kamaz Typhoon (which may very well be air-droppable) is the SHORAD Pantsir-S1.

    Neither of Pantsirs on video is SHORAD Pantsir-S1. Both are Pantsir-SM, which work in the same complex. One have search radar and guns, other have more missiles but without guns and search radar. Battery will for sure have command post and battery search radar. Anyway neither version of Pantsirs is air droppable, they are too heavy.

    Just the missile envelope view at the end of the video suggests the vehicle with the search radar has shorter range missiles and of course guns and deals with close range targets and low flying targets presumably to 20km like Pantsir-S, but the blue missile envelope showing the 45km range missile showed little low level engagement capability.

    therefore I suspect the two vehicles have different missiles and compliment each other forming the equivalent of Pantsir-S and BUK operating together, though with rather more BUK missiles...

    Russia should sanction Morocco from military hardware those bastards already have cheated with T-80, Kontakt-5 ERA, MSTA-S and few other hardware and shipped it to US and UK.

    There are few levels of Russian military hardware

    - intended for Russian army and its closest alies
    - export version for Russian allies
    - export version for Russian partner states that are stable
    - export version for states that are unstable and change of government is likely (meaning Russian hardware could find itself in a wrong hands)

    I think Morocco falls in the last category Very Happy

    Take in to account that Pancir-S1 was made because UAE gave money in the first place - so exporting something UAE also has, has no security issues but earns money - a lots of it Very Happy
