Team Yankee - NATO - Mistral SAM Group

The Mistral SATCP (sol-air très courte portée, or very short-range ground-to-air) missile is a “fire and forget” design, with a passive infra-red seeker to lock on the heat source of aircraft targets, but has a narrow field of view to reduce the effects of decoys and interference. The system is composed of the missile with its launcher and a portable and reusable tripod firing station on which the shooter sits.
