Lists on the subject |
9K113 Konkurs ( NATO code name AT-5 Spandrel ) is an anti-tank guided missile from Soviet production. The GRAY index of the missile is 9M113 .
development
The weapon system was developed in parallel with the 9K111 Fagot from 1962 . While the 9K111 was intended as a portable missile weapon for infantry use, the heavier 9M113 should primarily be fired from vehicles. The developer of both systems was the Tula development office. The first systems were delivered to the Soviet Army in 1974 .
technology
The 9M113 guided missiles are delivered in sealed GRP transport and launch containers. The loaded transport and start container weighs around 25 kg and is placed on the 9P135M start unit. This consists of a mount , the 9S451M steering unit and the 9Sh119M1 daylight target optics with four times magnification. These can 1PN86-1 - thermal imaging device to be connected. This enables target acquisition at distances of up to 3,500 m. The transport and launch container with the missile is placed on the launch unit next to the steering unit. Once the shooter has aimed at the target, he pulls the trigger and ignites the discharge charge, which the guided weapon ejects from the barrel at 64 m / s. At a distance of 10–15 m the solid-fuel march engine ignites and accelerates the guided weapon to 270 m / s. The missile achieves a stable flight path through its rotation . The weapon needs around 20 seconds to fly through the entire range of 4,000 m. The average flight speed is 200 m / s. During the flight the missile unwinds a wire through which it receives steering commands. The 9M113 works according to the SACLOS steering principle (semi-automatic command steering). The 9S451M steering system tracks the missile via an infrared radiator attached to the missile . Steering commands are calculated in the steering unit and transmitted to the missile via the wire connection. During the flight, the shooter only needs to keep the target in the crosshairs . Alternatively, the rocket can also be controlled by hand (MCLOS). The 9M113 -Lenkwaffe is with the 9N131 - shaped charge fitted -Gefechtskopf. This has a penetration capacity of 500 to 650 mm of armor steel . The 9S451M launch unit can also be used to fire the 9M111 guided missiles of the AT-4 Spigot.
In addition to the version for portable use by the infantry, the 9M113 is also used on various vehicles. It is on the armored personnel carriers BMP-2 , BMD -2 and BRDM-2 as anti-tank onboard weapon used. The 9K135 Kornet and the 9K123 Chrisantema are now being used as successor models .
