“107” Extended Range Rocket
The “107” rocket is an anti-personnel weapon developed for light artillery, infantry and Special Forces units.
Rocket “107-ER” is fully compatible with the multiple rocket launcher systems which are used with the standard rocket.
The rocket propellant, used in grain production, is a modern thermoplastic composite propellant made in accordance with the original technology. The propellant grain is not bonded to the walls of the combustion chamber, which enables easy and cost effective future overhaul of the rocket at the customer´s premises.
The “107-ER” rocket is spin stabilized by six canted nozzles, and rotates with high angular velocity, ensuring great accuracy.
