The Sapphire grenade launcher complex was presented at the MILEX-2025 exhibition.
This complex belongs to the class of rocket-propelled grenade launchers and is designed to combat armored vehicles, defeat enemy manpower (in bunkers, light shelters and other structures).
Technical characteristics of the Sapphire grenade launcher complex:
- Maximum firing range — 1000 m.
- Sighting range — 500 m.
- Product length — 750 mm.
- Weight — 4.5 kg.
- Product caliber — 61 mm.
Sapphire is equipped with two types of warheads — high-explosive fragmentation and cumulative fragmentation. It includes a programmable explosive device that provides two modes of operation: "contact" (instant target destruction) and "trajectory" (detonation in the air for a pinpoint strike on shelters).
To increase the density of fire, it is possible to fire a cluster of up to four products (up to 20 grenades in one volley). The cluster arrangement provides both salvo firing and sequential firing.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that the Belarusian cruise missile Askalon and the Mirotvorets UAV were presented at MILEX-2025.
