1. The guy who fires the missile has to shine a laser spot on the tank. He must keep this laser pointed at the tank all the way until the missile hits it even if he is under fire.
2.The missile has an "eye" (seeker) on the front that looks for that laser spot.
3.The jammer shines very bright laser beams into the missile's eye, blinding it. Then the missile can't see the laser spot it is looking for and self destructs by hitting the ground.
The laser is built into the missile launcher and has a scope to to help aim it.
The laser spot is similar to a regular laser pointer except it blinks in a coded pattern so the missile knows that is the right spot to aim for.
Similar Laser Jammers are also used to jam police laser speed guns and unlike Radar Jammers they ARE legal in most US states.
Most guided missiles are designed to self destruct if they cannot see their target.
This is to prevent the missiles from flying off wildly into friendly forces or civilians
Russian Kornet Anti-Tank Missile: World's Most Powerful Anti-Tank Missile - Míssil Anti-Tanque
Russian Kornet Anti-Tank Missile: World's Most Powerful Anti-Tank Missile
NO RE-UPLOAD, NO REUSE
Kornet: O Míssil anti-tanque mais poderoso do mundo
Engages modern and future tanks, light-armored vehicles, fortifications, low-speed air, surface and other targets by day and at night in adverse weather conditions and in enemy's radio and optical jamming environment.
Advantages and Operating Features
For Kornet E transportation and convenience of operation for combat crew, the launcher is folded into travel compact configuration, thermal imaging sight is located in a pack thus all combat equipment is delivered to the battlefield by any transport.
The system allows to detect the target, to aim on it, to fire, to track and to engage it by one person.
Small size, big lethality of warheads (missile with HEAT warhead engages modern tanks, missile with HE warhead in terms of lethality is compared to artillery round of big caliber) as well as significant firing range allow to deliver the system to air mobile troops, assault groups and special forces.
System installation in combat vehicles (BMP, BTR, BMD, jeep) enhances its mobility and versatility of use.
Possibility of Kornet E system elements installation in rotating cabin allows to design combat vehicles with electro-mechanical laying drives as well as to automate loading process, aiming and launching of missiles.
System combat vehicles provide:
high rate of fire;
round-the-clock ready-to-launch missiles;
salvo firing by two missiles at one target.
