Combining gun and missile systems on one platform, the Pantsir-S1 provides thorough defence against low-altitude threats. With their good coverage against targets at different ranges, the twin 2A38M 30mm autocannons enhance the missile systems. Although its electro-optical targeting technology guarantees precision in all weather situations, the system's radar can track up to 20 targets concurrently. Particularly good at safeguarding mobile military units and fixed sites is the Pantsir-S1's mobility and fast reaction times.
