Unexpected footage of an Algerian Air Force MiG-29M fighter with a T220 targeting pod on the engine nacelle has appeared online.
It is worth recalling that the pod was developed by JSC "NPK "SPP". According to available data, the system is intended to equip MiG-29SMT, MiG-29M/M2 (MiG-35), MiG-29K/KUB, Su-30SM and Su-35S aircraft. The complex is 2.4 m long and 0.37 m in diameter.
Suspended targeting pods (STP) turn fighters into universal combat vehicles capable of not only shooting down enemy aircraft, but also destroying ground targets with high precision.
Currently, STPs have become a mandatory attribute of the Air Forces of all developed countries. They are installed not only on machines such as F-15, F-16, Rafale, but even on propeller-driven training aircraft.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the latest Goliath-R, Karakurt-R and Quasimachta drones from Kalashnikov will land in Abu Dhabi.
