New IGLA 100 small-arms cartridges with a projectile of super-hard shot based on an alloy of tungsten, nickel, and iron have proven themselves in countering drones. Rostec has begun mass production of ammunition, the state corporation's press service said.
At the same time, the ammunition demonstrates accuracy sufficient to defeat a target the size of a standard FPV drone.
The cartridge shot pierces engines, control units, cuts wires and propellers, and breaks other strong structural elements of UAVs.
Production of anti-drone cartridges of the 12th caliber under this brand was launched in 2024.
