NSS translation: An advertising video of the newest Russian short-range air defense system "Sosna" [Russian for “Pine”] has appeared on the internet. The state tests of the complex were completed in 2017. The Sosna air defense missile system is designed to replace the outdated SAM system Strela-10. The basis of the complex was a high-precision high-speed 9M340 guided missile. Its guidance system is a combined radio command at the launch site and teleorientation by laser beam after separation of the engine and exit to the line of sight. The rocket flying to the target at a speed of 3240 km / h is insensitive to optical and electronic means of suppression. Each combat vehicle carries 12 missiles with a response time to the target of 5 seconds. The Sosna has a range of 10 kilometers, and the system is capable of shooting down aerial objects at altitudes ranging from 0 to 5000 meters. The merits of the SAM include its increased survivability due to stealth. During operation, the Sosna practically does not give itself away with radiation, transmitting only short data packets to identify the target and exchange data inside the battery and with the command post. Each combat vehicle is capable of operating both autonomously and receiving target designations from various types of command posts.
