The Kalashnikov Concern has shipped another batch of high-precision 9M333 guided anti-aircraft missiles to the state customer. The delivery was made as part of contractual obligations for 2026. The missiles are intended for the Strela-10 anti-aircraft missile system and its modifications, which are actively used in the Russian army.
The 9M333 missile is capable of hitting aerial targets around the clock, including in conditions of optical interference. Its homing head operates in three modes: photo-contrast, infrared, and jam-resistant. This allows it to effectively intercept drones, cruise missiles, and other low-flying objects, even with active enemy countermeasures.
The increase in the volume of state orders for products is associated with positive results of combat use. The company notes that clear production planning, the launch of new assembly sections, and the training of personnel in its own training school help to meet contractual deadlines.
