 Purpose: to fit air-to-air and surface-to-air missiles. Provides: - search, lock-on and tracking of moving targets upon target designation from airborne and air defense radars: -measuring of target angular coordinates, angular rates and missile-to-target closing speed; - reception and decoding of update link signals; - generation and transfer of signals measured to missile control system.
Operating modes: - active (“fire-and-forget”) completely autonomous mode using only preliminary target designation data, without any external radar support during flight; - inertial guidance with updating.
Specifications: 1. Composition: - controlled coordinator with antenna; - transmitting channel hardware; - receiving channel hardware; - reprogrammed on-board digital computing system. 2. Type of guidance system: - inertial guidance with updating and active homing; 3. Lock-on range of targets with RCS = 5m2 : 20 km; 4. Uplink channel operation range (with the MIG-29 fire control system) : up to 50 km; 5. Time ready (after preliminary warm-up for 2 min) : 1,5 sec; 6. Mass (less radome) : 14,5 kg; 7. Diameter : 200 mm; 8. Length (less radome) : 600 mm.
