NOVOSIBIRSK. Nov 28 (Interfax-AVN) - Specialists of the local applied physics institute which designed the system of combating high-precision arms for Navy are developing similar systems for the Land Forces, the institute's constructor general Yevgeny Yurovsky told Interfax-Military News Agency on Wednesday.
The system is operating due to combined use of aerosol substances and creates jams for various high-precision arms' homing systems of the enemy in combat conditions.
