Long range UMTAS is an anti-tank precision guided missile system that has been developed for use primarily on attack helicopters.
The missile’s Imaging Infrared Seeker permits its use at day or night, and in adverse weather conditions, and its RF data link provides it with flexible operational capabilities. The missile can be used in fire-and-forget or fire-and-update mode with lock-on before launch or lock-on after launch capabilities. The hitting point on the target can also be updated during flight.
Its precision guidance and control capability, together with its tandem anti-armor warhead, make UMTAS an effective weapon system against armored targets.
