Swedish RBS 70 Swedish MANDS showed high efficiency in the fight against Russian drones (video)

With this complex, Ukrainian fighters have successfully struck the rare Russian Supersam reconnaissance drone. The recent combat experience of Ukrainian fighters has shown the effectiveness of the Swedish SAAB RBS 70 in the fight against Russian drones on the battlefield, according to Army Recognition.

In particular, the experts drew attention to the successful combat work of the 47th separate mechanized brigade of the Armed Forces, which published a video of the lesion with the help of RBS 70 of a rare reconnaissance unmanned Russian-Supersam. Since the deployment of RBS 70 MSCs in Ukraine, watchmakers write, they have played an important role in strengthening the country's air defense.

In particular, the Swedish complex knocked out the Russian helicopter KA-52, as well as neutralized the winged missiles, demonstrating its versatility and accuracy. "These successful fighting emphasizes the strategic value of RBS 70 on the battlefield. Ease of operation in combination with the effective radius of action and the ability to damage different types of goals made it an important asset in the defense arsenal of Ukraine," experts emphasized.

The RBS 70, developed by Saab Bors Dynamics, is a portable anti-aircraft missile complex (MSRC), which has a complete set of functions for effective air defense. Its mobility provides rapid deployment and relocation, which allows it to adapt it to different combat situations. Such opportunities are a significant advantage when responding to dynamic air threats. Equipped with a laser beam, RBS 70 provides high target accuracy.

This technology minimizes the likelihood of a miss, increasing the likelihood of lesions of fast moving goals. Laser guidance also makes the system less susceptible to countermeasures and obstacles, increasing its reliability. RBS 70 is designed to defeat a wide range of air threats, including helicopters, drones and aircraft, due to the possibility of damage to all goals.

Such versatility is extremely important in the conditions of modern war, when the nature of air threats can vary significantly. In addition, the system has a short reaction time, which can quickly hit the target after its detection. This ability is necessary to protect against sudden air attacks and protect expensive objects and land forces. The effective range of the system is about 8 kilometers, and it is capable of affecting targets at an altitude of 5 kilometers.
