NORINCO HARDSELLS RED ARROW moting its Red Arrow12 E anti-tank missile
system and is looking for customers in the
MENA region.

The Red Arrow is a portable, fire-and-forget
anti-tank missile capable of hitting tanks,
bunkers, ships and helicopters, with a pen-
etration capability of 1,100 millimeters. The
missile system adopts an IR imaging seeker
for all-weather day-and-night use, and an
equally-effective daytime model using a TV
imaging seeker is also available. The TV
version has a maximum range of 4,000 m,
while the IR version has only a maximum
range of 2,000 m.

The HJ-12 enables soldiers to lock on
target, fire and then move on without main-
taining position to guide the missile to its
target, providing tactical advantages.

Late last year, the Chinese company for
the first time exported the third-generation
anti-tank weapon system to an undisclosed
customer.
