Ukraine presented MLRS “VILKHA” on new chassis in Poland

The ALDER MLRS is designed to defeat equipment, manpower, command posts, and other targets.

The Ukrainian rocket launcher is capable of launching new guided missiles at a range of up to 110 kilometers.

The main feature of the new guided missile is that the initial section of the trajectory provides correction of the jet projectile flight with the help of pulse engines, minimizing the deviation of the jet projectile flight from a given trajectory.

In the terminal part of flight, a missile is pointed at the target by an inertial-satellite navigation system.

Also, the Ukrainian rocket system provides for the formation of individual flight missions for each rocket, which allows you to hit several targets with a single salvo.

Specifications:

• number of shells – 8-12 pcs.;
• maximum range – up to 110 km;
• projectile length – 7600 mm;
• caliber – 300 mm;
• weight of the projectile – 923 kg;
• guidance system – INS + GPS;
• number of launching channels – 12;
• full volley duration – not more than 40 s;
• projectile monitoring time – not more than 3 minutes;
• operational temperature – from -40 to + 50 °C.

About fifteen enterprises of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex worked on the creation of the system.

First of all, this is the “State Kyiv Design Bureau “LUCH”- the main executor of the project for the state defense contract.
