MBDA MISTRAL Missile System – The Ultimate Short-Range Air Defense System

The MISTRAL missile system is one of the most advanced short-range air defense (SHORAD) solutions in the world, with a proven success rate of over 96%. Designed for army, navy, and air force operations, it offers multi-domain protection against aircraft, helicopters, UAVs, and precision-guided threats. Built by MBDA France, the MISTRAL 3 is the latest evolution in a legacy that began in the early 1990s, integrating advanced seekers, ECCM technology, and fire-and-forget capabilities for maximum performance.
Unlike traditional MANPADS, the MISTRAL 3 is launched from a dedicated mount, tripod, vehicle, ship, or helicopter, enabling faster reaction times and advanced target acquisition. Its two-color cooled IR seeker, proportional navigation, and ±38° seeker tilt ensure high accuracy against maneuvering targets—even in heavy countermeasure environments.
Deployed by over 25 countries worldwide, including recent operational use in Ukraine, the MISTRAL 3 remains a cornerstone in modern air defense. Whether defending ground forces, securing naval assets, or protecting airbases, it delivers unmatched reliability in the most demanding combat situations.
