Among such initiatives is the anti-aircraft missile complex (SPR) of Krona-E range, which Kalashnikov concern plans to be presented at the IDEX 2025 exhibition at the UAE from 17 to February 21. About it writes the portal Defense Express. The observers note that despite the statements of Russian developers about the "recent" capabilities "Krona-E" to protect important objects from drones, the visual and technical features of the complex indicate its origin from the older system-Pine "Pine".
This system was first shown in 2013 and was envisaged as a replacement of an outdated arrow-10. However, the complex has not been massively adopted by the Russian army. Thus, it is obvious that it is a typical "long -building" of the Russian OPC. Features of SPRs The key difference of "Crone-e" is its predictable versatility. Russian sources claim that the complex can use both 9M340 anti-aircraft missiles, designed for pine and more heavier than 9m333 from the Arrow-10.
In addition, the 9M340 anti -aircraft missile has a two -stage structure and the higher characteristics of the range and height of the lesion, which makes it effective against modern drones and cruise missiles. The authors of the material pointed out that Russia did not declare plans to put "Crone-e" on the armament of its troops, which indicates its positioning exclusively as an export product.
