    The VT1 is a hyper-velocity missile designed for short-range air defense systems. It is used in both land-based and naval versions of the Crotale short-range air defense system. The VT1 can counter threats like tactical missiles, helicopters, drones, and aircraft with stand-off weapons due to its high speed and maneuverability, providing a 12km no-escape zone.
