About MISTRAL ATAM
MISTRAL ATAM is based on the MISTRAL missile with its fire-and-forget engagement mode, ease of operation and unrivalled kill probability.
The system is based on two, twin launchers, each fitted either side of the helicopter and deploying a total of four ready-to-fire Mistral missiles.
The weapon can be connected to the helicopter’s combat system when integrated onto a combat helicopter, or through simplified control equipment if installed on a multi-purpose helicopter.
In both cases, it is characterised by simplicity of operation, a very low crew workload and a high level of performance. The system can be operated within the whole flight envelope of the launch helicopter, at speeds of up to 200 knots and at altitudes exceeding 15,000 feet.
MISTRAL ATAM ensures a large off-boresight capability, together with the ability to aim the missile seeker very precisely at a given target. The missile has a shaped trajectory in order to intercept targets top-down or at long range, the crew can also select the proximity fuze mode.
