Meet the tor-m1 update 1

At the request of reader Gert I've republished my original page and included some links below for those interested in further research on this system: The Russian TOR-M1 surface-to-air missile system is an integrated air defense system that has autonomous radar capabalities. It functions at at altitudes from very low to medium. And fires missiles capable of destroying: Fixed wing aircraft. Rotary wing aircraft. UAVs. Guided missiles. Precision missiles. Amongst its other capabilities the tor-m1 can function in an intensive aerial jamming environment. Unlike many such systems it does not need to be stationary to operate - it can track up to 48 targets simultaneously and acquire and fire upon up two of them while on the move. Russia and Iran signed an agreement late in 2005 for Iran to take delivery of 30 such systems.

They're not the most accurate in the world but they don't have to be. That should keep you going. :-)
