SİSTEM GENEL BAKIŞI
High Velocity Missile (HVM) short-range air defence system capable of engaging aircraft, helicopters, UAVs, and cruise missiles. Unique three-dart kinetic energy warhead design — after launch the missile accelerates to over Mach 3.5, then releases three laser-guided tungsten sub-munitions that independently track the target using laser beam-riding guidance. This makes it extremely difficult to decoy or jam compared to IR or radar-guided missiles. Available in shoulder-launched (LML), vehicle-mounted (Stormer HVM), and helicopter-launched (Martlet derivative) configurations. Combat-proven in Ukraine against Russian aircraft.
