Bastion coastal defence system

Bastion is designed to ensure engagement of large ships with strong air defence and radio-contrast ground targets


Bastion

A salvo of Yakhont missiles can overcome the air defence system of nearly every ship.

Thanks to the long range of fire and high velocity of Yakhont missiles Bastion is capable of delivering sudden strikes against distant sea-surface targets.

Usage of flexible program-controlled flight path allows missiles to overcome the air defence system and to approach targets from the unexpected directions.
Mobility of the system provides for its high maneuverability and covertness of the combat use.
