The Military Technical Institute in Belgrade (Vojnotehni?ki Institut, VTI), part of the Serbian Ministry of Defence (MoD), on 22 May test-fired the indigenously-developed infrared (IR)-homing RLN-IC\/170 short-range surface-to-air missile (SAM).<\/strong>

\"SerbianA modified Serbian Army PASARS FM-1 fires an indigenously-developed infrared-homing RLN-IC\/170 short-range surface-to-air missile on 22 May.<\/em>

The test-firing, part of a three-phase programme to upgrade the Serbian Army\u2019s (Kopnena vojska Srbije [KoV\u2019s]) PASARS 6\u00d76 self-propelled hybrid armoured artillery and air defence system, was conducted at the Pasuljanske Livade training ground, near ?uprija in central-east Serbia. A modified PASARS FM-1 mobile weapon system was used for the test, with the RLN-IC\/170 launched at a 120 mm illumination mortar round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Serbian MoD, the objective of the test firing was to verify the missile\u2019s lock-on-to-target in the pre-launch and launch sequences, to confirm the missile\u2019s aerodynamic configuration and real-time autonomous guidance characteristics, and to establish the functionality of RLN-IC\/170\u2019s newly-installed subsystems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nenad Miloradovi?, Acting Assistant Minister for Materiel Resources in the Serbian MoD, said that the RLN-IC\/170 is an improved version of the earlier RLN-IC missile \u2013 a local development of the R-13M short-range IR homing air-to-air missile used with the Serbian Air Force MiG-21 combat aircraft. The RLN-IC\/170 features a new solid-fuel rocket motor, believed to have been developed by the Kru\u0161ik Holding Corporation, an updated IR homing warhead, digital control electronics, and a re-configured larger calibre warhead. \u201dThese new components, including the rocket engine, are developed by VTI and its subcontractors,\u201d said Miloradovi?.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
