Footage of an American mobile simulator of the Russian Pantsir anti-aircraft missile and gun system has appeared online. Lockheed Martin is working with it.
The simulator is designed to test software with the function of recognizing and classifying targets of the Sniper aircraft suspended container, used, for example, on F-16 and F-18 fighters. The sighting system with optoelectronic and IR equipment directs high-precision weapons at moving and stationary targets.
The Pantsir self-propelled anti-aircraft missile system is designed for close-range defense of civilian and military facilities, as well as for covering long-range air defense systems.
In the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, it is represented by the Pantsir-S1 modification with a multi-channel target acquisition and tracking system. The complex is capable of hitting aerial targets at a distance of 200 m to 20 km, flying at speeds up to 1000 m/s.
