KORNET-EM
Simply put, it’s a combination of two previously existing parts:
-GAZ Tigr armored fighting vehicle or Remdizel K-53949 Typhoon 4×4 armored personnel carrier,(pictured here)
-Kornet-EM guided missile system
Let’s start with the Remdizel K-53949 Typhoon platform. Typhoon is a multi-purpose four-wheeled platform, available in a large number of modifications, ranging from unarmored four-wheeled utility vehicle to a light military APC with anti-bullet armor.
On Kornet-EM, it consists of two four-tube Kornet-EM launcher. The Kornet-EM is an export variant of the Russian Kornet-D1 missile. Both launchers can be aimed independently. When traveling, they are retracted into the vehicle and are only extended when they are about to be fired – it takes roughly 7 seconds to get it combat-ready.
Once extended, the tubes can be elevated to +45 degrees and depressed to -5 degrees. The vehicle carries 8 rounds in tubes and 8 spare missiles (one for each tube), bringing the total of ammunition carried to 16. After firing, the tubes retract to the vehicle for reloading.
The laser-guided missiles fired from this launching system are the 9M133 “Kornet” series, available in a number of variants, ranging from the standard 9M133 tandem warhead ATGM (capable of penetrating approximately 1000mm of RHAe after defeating an ERA tile) to a large 9M133F with a massive HE warhead.
The Kornet-EM uses an eponymous, advanced variant of the missiles (9M133M-2, 9M133FM-3), capable of defeating some 1300mm of armor with the maximum range extended from the original 5km to up to 10km. Each such missile weighs some 30kg and its flight velocity is some 310 m/s.
