The updated remote control (RC) of the Fagot anti-tank missile system (ATGM) is being tested in combat conditions. Employees of PJSC Kirov Plant Mayak (part of the Kalashnikov concern) showed operators how the RC works, and also explained the features of its operation.
The combat crew will test the Fagot in open and wooded areas, in an urban environment. After that, the military will be able to make an official review of the effectiveness of the complex.
“The peculiarity and advantage of remote control is that it is easy to use, unpretentious and can be quickly repaired even in the field.
With the help of the RC, you can remotely control 3 Fagot launchers in turn. The complex allows you to detect, recognize, track targets. It is designed to destroy armored vehicles, enemy firing points, and low-flying helicopters. At the same time, the operator is located at a distance of up to 100 m from the ATGM itself.
Designers began developing the RC for the Fagot in 2023. By the fall of next year, it was tested at the training ground. Experts promptly eliminated all the comments received during test launches.
