The ALAS missile system was developed primarily for missions against tanks, armored vehicles, fortifications, command posts, low-flying helicopters, coastal ships, industrial facilities and bridges.

It can be deployed by any suitable platform including helicopters, armored vehicles, small ships and infantry.

The ALAS flies at low altitude and has small radar and infrared (heat) signatures due to using a turbofan motor instead of a turbojet.

It used a small degree of aerodynamic control via rudders and was propelled by an axial turbine engine equipped with a single nozzle.

The system uses advanced control and image processing algorithms, electro-optical converters and radio links.

Main propulsion characteristics: RALAS[7] (Rocketized Alas) has solid propellant sustainer rocket engine, accelerated with solid propellant booster engine variant can replace the turbojet with range estimated to 9–10 km with greater speed.

It was in early stages of development designated as LORANA (LOng RAnge Non line of sight Attack system).

RALAS has a 10.5 kg tandem warhead capable to penetrate over 1,000 mm RHA, or a blast fragmentation one with a 25 meters lethal radius.

[9] RALAS is an advanced remote non-line of sight attack system battery that consists of a battery command post (based on light wheeled armored SUV or semi) and four launch vehicles, with each vehicle equipped with 4 to 8 containers with missiles.
