Snap Shot

Country of Origin: Russia

description

Snap Shot (Russian: 9S86) is a range-only radar used in the SA-13 Gopher (Russian: 9K35 Strela-10) missile system to prevent missile launch until the target is within its effective range.

The coherent pulse-Doppler millimeter wave radar provides extremely accurate ranging data for low-altitude targets.

The circular parabolic dish, which is located between the launch rails on the vehicle, has a feed centrally positioned over its center. It traverses and elevates with the launcher.
