As part of the demonstration of the latest short-range anti-aircraft missile system (SAM), the Kalashnikov Concern (part of Rostec) offered potential Belarusian customers to install the SAM combat module, currently mounted on the wheeled base of the BTR-82, on the tracked chassis of the BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicle.
Alan Lushnikov, General Director of Kalashnikov, noted that the concern is creating a new mobile and highly automated complex capable of effectively countering even the most complex maneuvering targets, including low-visibility enemy drones and cruise missiles.
And here, the high cross-country ability of the chassis on which the combat module is installed plays an important role. Therefore, we offer potential Belarusian customers to install the combat module of the "Krona-E" SAM system on the tracked chassis of the BMP-2. Although, in principle, we are ready to mount it on any chassis.
The "Krona-E" SAM system is designed to protect important state facilities from air attacks, as well as infrastructure facilities of cities and special importance; special cargo in their storage locations, structures on strategic communications. The main targets of the complex are medium-class unmanned aerial vehicles.
