The 9P122 fighting vehicle with 9M14 (9M14M) guided missiles is designed to fight moving and stationary armored targets at ranges from 500 m to 3000 m.
The armored targets at ranges up to 500 m are countered with RPG-7 grenade launchers placed in the vehicle.
In addition, the vehicle is equipped with an AKM assault rifle and hand grenades for close combat. For alarm purposes, the vehicle is equipped with a flashlight with warning cartridges.
The combat vehicle is a self-propelled launcher mounted on the GAZ-41-02 base vehicle. The launcher consists of a package of guides, a lifting and turning mechanism, a hydraulic lift, an electric drive, as well as a set of ground control equipment and a sighting device with a control unit.
The SAMBOARD PACKAGE is used to install six projectiles, connect them to the electric circuits of the control equipment and direct them at the starting point when firing. It consists of a beam with six guides. The roof is fixed to the beam. A package of rails is attached to the bracket of the lift-and-turn mechanism.
The Lift-and-Turn mechansism is used to provide the guide package with the necessary guidance angles for firing in vertical and horizontal planes.
HYDROPOWER is used to raise and lower the guide pack when moving the combat vehicle from the homing position to the combat position and back. It consists of a hydraulic lift cylinder and hydraulic lift control units.
ELECTROPOWER is used to point the packet of guideways at the target in horizontal and vertical planes when tracking the target and when pointing the target.
The hydraulic lift and the electric drive have manual doublers. Drive doublers allow manual pointing of the guide package at the target (landmark), while hydraulic lift doubler allows manual lifting and lowering of the guide package in case of failure of the hydraulic lift main pump.
The 9M14 (9M14M) IMPORTANT APPARATOR is used to start and control the projectile in flight.
VISION 9S115A WITH FLASH and OPTICAL VISION 9S16 are intended for area observation, target search and observation of the projectile in flight and target.
