Description

The Tornado-S is a long-range multiple rocket launch system (MLRS) developed to hit targets at ranges of up to 120-200 kilometers with pinpoint accuracy. The Tornado-S guided rocket utilizes an improved version of the special GLONASS satellite navigation system used in the Smerch missile system. As of late 2012 the Tornado-S was undergoing acceptance trials for deployment with the Russian Army. The new guided rocket may have a diameter of 300 millimeter as was reported erroneously with the Tornado-G rocket system. The Tornado-S rocket family maybe equipped with a variety of warheads with the possibility to increase its effective range to 200 kilometers in the near future.
