UMTAS
Long-Range Anti-Tank Missile System
Long-Range Anti-Tank Missile System [UMTAS] is an anti-tank precision guided missile system that has been developed for integration primarily with attack helicopters. Its Imaging Infrared Seeker permits day and night use, and in all adverse weather conditions.
The missile has fire-and-update flight modes that permit lock-on before or after launch through the RF data link between the launcher and the missile. Its precision guidance and control capability, together with its tandem armour piercing warhead, make UMTAS an effective weapon system against armoured targets.
