Ukraine’s Defence Intelligence of the Ministry of Defence has published data on enterprises involved in the production of Russia’s 72V6 combat vehicle of the Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft missile-gun system.
In the Components in Weapons section of the War & Sanctions portal, an interactive 3D model of the system and data on 52 enterprises have been published.
Russia uses the Pantsir system to cover small but critical areas, specific military and industrial facilities, and to strengthen air defense groupings at low and extremely low altitudes against massed air attacks.
In 2023, Pantsir-S1 systems were deployed on rooftops of buildings in central Moscow, including for the protection of the Kremlin.
The main combat element of the system is a combat vehicle equipped with detection, tracking, and engagement systems. A key feature of the system is the combination of missile and gun armament, allowing continuous fire at different ranges and altitudes.
Ten enterprises are still not under sanctions from any country in the sanctions coalition.
Among them are:
- Kazan Electrotechnical Plant, which produces and supplies angular acceleration measurement units and backup power supply units;
- JSC “Center for Technology Commercialization,” which supplies computing system blocks 1VS1-1k;
- Armavir Electrotechnical Plant, which manufactures electric fans for target detection stations.
