Sky Dragon 12 Air defence System
The system was unveiled for the first time during the defense exhibition in South Africa, AAD, September 2014.
The command-to-line-of-sight weapon resembles Russia’s KBM Panstsyr, firing two-stage booster-and-dart missiles and mounted on a single vehicle with search and guidance radars.
There is also an electro-optical backup guidance system. The system carries 12 ready missiles and has a range up to 12 km and a maximum altitude of 5 km.
One difference from Pantsyr is that it is missile-only, and designed to be integrated with separate gun systems.
The Sky Dragon 12 short-range SAM system is designed for key-point and field air-defense of small-size military objects and areas against mass air threats, such as aircraft, helicopters, cruise missiles, UAVs and precision-guided weapons, as well as reinforcing 35mm AA (Anti-Aircraft) gun air-defense group coverage, forming the AWS2 missile/gun integrated air defense weapon.
