Techmash Concern (a part of Rostec) brings to the international market the newest Multiple rocket launcher system “Tornado-S” (9K515) with 300 mm guided rocket projectiles.
Multiple rocket launcher system “Tornado-S” (9K515) is a result of the deep modernization of the MRLS “Smerch”. Compared with its predecessor, it has improved operational characteristics, in particular, significantly increased range and accuracy of fire.
“Rostec Corporation continues to develop the new types of high-technology weapons. The MRLS “Tornado-S” is among such novelties. The system has already obtained the advertising certificate and is ready to enter in the international market. Its key advantage is the use of fundamentally new 300 mm guided rocket projectiles with a range of fire up to 120 km”, said the Industrial Director of Rostec Corporation Sergey Abramov.
The MRLS “Tornado-S” provides for the capability to communicate individual data of flight mission to every rocket.
The multiple rocket launcher system “Tornado-S” is designed for fire defeat of personnel, machinery, motionless and moving single and group targets. The MRLS can be used against artillery and missile units, including high-precision weapon systems, in the areas of concentration, in travel, at firing and launching positions.
