'Carapace-M') is a Russian jamming-resistant naval close-in weapon system (CIWS) which entered service in 2018.
[4][5][6][7] According to Rostec CEO Sergey Chemezov, Pantsir-M's destructive power is three to four times higher than Kashtan-M's.
Pantsir-M can intercept sea skimming missiles flying as low as two meters above the surface.
If a target isn't sufficiently destroyed by Pantsir's missile attack it can automatically direct its cannons against it.
Pantsir-M's phased array radar, electro-optical/infrared targeting and identification system are based on that of Pantsir's 1RS2-1.
