Two mobile laser complexes for detecting and destroying drones – "Granat-9.1" and "Granat-4.2" – were showcased in Arkhangelsk. The developer was OKB "Granat", which presented the equipment at the IV forum "Arctic – Regions".
The complexes are designed for searching, detecting, and recognizing attacking UAVs with subsequent destruction of targets by laser radiation.
The older version, "Granat-9.1", is mounted on a KAMAZ chassis and is designed for operation in conditions requiring increased cross-country capability. The power of the high-power laser emitter is at least 9 kW, and the declared range is from 200 to 1500 m.
"Granat-4.2" is based on a UAZ. Its high-power emitter has a power of at least 4 kW and operates at a distance of 200 to 1200 m.
To protect large objects, several complexes can be combined into a spatially distributed system with a single control center.
The IV forum "Arctic – Regions" is taking place in Arkhangelsk on August 13 and 14.
