"Viking" (9K317ME)

The newest medium-range air defence system "Viking" is ideal for providing air defence to troops (military installations) in various forms of combat operations, administrative and industrial facilities and territories of the country.

The "Viking" ADMS is capable of engaging aerodynamic targets, tactical ballistic missiles and ground (surface) radio-contrast objects.
The ADMS has the ability to autonomously use self-propelled firing units (target illumination and guidance radars with launchers).
The "Viking" ADMS is designed for air defence of troops and facilities of the army and the front against massive attacks by prospective enemy air attack weapons in conditions of electronic and fire suppression of air defence systems.

Characteristics

The ADMS ensures the destruction of an aircraft with an RCS of 2 square meters:
slant range	up to 65 km
altitude	25 km
Slant range of tactical ballistic missiles engagement	up to 25 km
Range of cruise missiles engagement	up to 20 km
Speed of targets	up to 4800 m/s
Engagement range of helicopters/hovering	up to 60/12 km

The 9S510ME combat control post

The 9S510ME combat control post is designed for automated control of ADMS and works in conjunction with one target acquisition radar, up to six self-propelled firing units and target illumination and guidance radars and ensures work together with a higher command post or attached assets.

The target acquisition radar

The target acquisition radar is designed to detect existing and prospective air attack weapons.

9A317ME self-propelled firing unit

9A317ME self-propelled firing unit is designed to solve the following tasks: reception of target designation, control signals from the CCP or air situation from the TAR; detection, identification, locking-on, tracking of air targets and recognition of their classes; determining the coordinates of tracked targets, developing a flight task for missiles located on their own launchers and solving pre-launch tasks; locating its own launching device after receiving information on the responsibility sector from the CCP; simultaneous engagement of up to 6 targets from its own launcher and attached 9A316ME launcher, with the launch of 12 missiles and the transmission of radio correction commands to them; transferring to the attached 9A316ME launcher the information, commands and signals necessary for the formation of a flight task; transferring to the C2P the information on tracked targets, modes and the process of combat work, and other tasks.

9S36ME target illumination and guidance radar

9S36ME target illumination and guidance radar designed for: detecting, locking-on and tracking mainly low-flying air targets, identifying nationality and recognizing their class; illumination of targets and transmission of commands to missiles (up to 12 missiles simultaneously).
According to its functional purpose, target illumination and guidance radar solves tasks similar to the self-propelled firing unit , and can perform tasks both as part of an air defence system during target designation from a combat control point, and autonomously in the sector of responsibility.

The launcher

The launcher is designed to solve the following tasks: placement, transportation and storage of up to 12 missiles in transport and launch containers (TLC) placed on 2 swinging parts in packages of 2 TLC at a fixed angle of 45 degrees; pre-launch preparation and launch of missiles according to the data of the SPFU or TIGR; monitoring the serviceability of electrical and radio equipment of launchers and missiles on commands received from a SPFU or TIGR, and autonomously.
