Baktar-Shikan

"Baktar Shikan is a second-generation anti-tank guided missile weapon system which uses the principle of optical aiming, IR tracking and automatically generated, remote controlled and wire transmitted guidance signals. With its long range, greater penetration power and a powerful anti-jamming capability, it forms a potent defence against armoured targets. It is easy to operate and is capable of destroying all known tank targets including those fitted with ERA at ranges up to 3,000 m with more than 90% hit and penetration probability. The system can quickly be disassembled into four sub-assemblies, each weighing not more than 25 kg, thus making the system man-portable"
