Description

The 9M218 is a state-of-the-art 122mm unguided rocket projectile fitted with 45 shaped charge fragmentation submunitions scattering warhead. The 25 kg warhead features 45 submunitons that can pierce 100-to-120mm of homogenous armor. It has been designed to engage soft-skinned armored targets such as infantry combat vehicles (ICVs), armored troops carrier (ATCs) and/or self-propelled howitzers (SPHs) as well as manpower, helicopters and aircraft on landing runways. The rocket projectile can engage targets at ranges of up to 30,000 meters operating at temperatures between -50-degree to +50-degree Celsius. The new rocket motor provides 50 percent more range compared with legacy Grad projectiles. The 9M218 rocket projectile was developed and produced by Splav for the upgraded Grad-1, now Tornado-G, multiple launch rocket system.
