Tests of the "invisibility cloak" for military equipment

43
The head of the Russian Electronics holding, which is structurally part of Rostec, Igor Kozlov, reports that the necessary military trials of a new means of protection against electronic warfare, which is commonly referred to as an “invisible cloak” for military equipment, are in full swing. This "cloak" is capable of "covering" warships, airplanes, armored vehicles from the effects of modern and promising EW equipment of the enemy.


When journalists asked Igor Kozlov when the new countermeasure of the electronic warfare would start coming into service with the Russian army, the head of Ruselectronics said that this was most likely the 2017 year. Reports about it IA "Interfax".

Tests of the "invisibility cloak" for military equipment


According to Igor Kozlov, now the holding specialists are taking into account comments from the military about the functionality and features of the “invisible cloak”, and based on this accounting, all shortcomings will be eliminated in the near future.

Igor Kozlov notes that the effectiveness of an anti-REB drug depends on the size of the fiber. The novelty of the Russian defense industry is distinguished by the fact that it makes it difficult to select an object by radio electronics. The fibers of the “cloak” are interwoven with each other so that the enemy’s electronic equipment is deprived of the ability to identify the object as a military aircraft, ship, tank. The “cloak” reflects the signal, but the enemy’s receiving devices are not able to determine what is specifically detected by the electronics. Based on this, the adversary can get a large number of false targets, among which it is almost impossible to find the real one.

        Protecting the borders of our Motherland "Not by quantity, but by quality and skill .." .. An excellent direction of our military-industrial complex! Not everyone fled to the western 30 pieces of silver in the 90s ... Many starved and lived in poverty, but did not sell ... A monument to such designers and engineers should be erected on Red Square! If it were not for them, Russia may no longer exist ... Thank you all! hi

        And you do not listen to what they say, then repeat less stupidity. Without straining a mosk, type in a search engine - metallized fabrics. Materials with such properties have been around for decades. To use them in the army, it was necessary to reduce the cost of goods once, there were two possible combat missions. Apparently both factors have ripened, or maybe someone has broken their product in the Moscow Region. Since several manufacturers have patented them.

      Don’t tell me, when they know that there is an ICBM, there is air defense (starting with the liquidation of the U-2), then there is no desire to get to us, one way or another since 1945 we have not had a big war. And after Caliber, they began to take our designs sooo seriously. When they announced the adoption of the strategic KR, 533 mm caliber (which is the name) for the launchers of MRK, Storozhevikov and diesel torpedo tubes, their experts giggled, they said it was not possible and this was a bluff, and our Caliber in the export version was not very scared (range up to 300 km). But when one and a half thousand kilometers wailed from the poor guard, the giggle gave way to hysteria. So, the Russian Federation simply showed in reality that it is responsible for the bazaar.

    As I understand it, the conversation is about this: "Specialists of Ruselectronics have created a ferrite fiber capable of absorbing the effects of waves of electronic weapons. Such a fiber is able to protect aircraft, anti-aircraft missile systems and electronic devices of armored vehicles from the effects of electronic warfare (EW)"

        I think that "covering" the whole ship is figurative. The fiber changes, distorts the EM signal (the article says about this), that is, there is light, but it is impossible to classify an object due to signal distortion. It is enough to correctly calculate and “hide” some parts. And the fact that it protects the enemy from electronic warfare, and passively), is also a huge plus.

    In 14, UVZ already showed something at CADEKS, like "fur coats" for the T-72,90.
    It is another matter if the "invisibility cloak" is real in the normal optical range. smile
    It’s not bad to come up with a “self-assembled tablecloth” there. Yes, and “fast walking boots” for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Well, there’s also a “carpet plane” only for the Aerospace Forces. laughing

      Somewhere in the 90s, when the army was disbanded en masse, familiar summer residents dug up some kind of artificial fabric woven from flat ribbons, about 5 mm wide. Hanged her on the fence - closed from the neighbors. When I was there at the next barbecue, I noticed that I couldn’t fix the shape of the fence with the eye. Do not think, the process has just begun. smile I took a picture of this fence. But the screen of the camera was only a ripple. The fabric was dark green and glistened in the sun like ripples in the water.

      So the "invisibility cloak" has long been described in the literature of different nations, the oldest which I remember is the "Song of the Nibelungs" (German: Das Nibelungenlied) - a medieval Germanic epic poem written by an unknown author at the end of the XNUMXth - beginning of the XNUMXth century.
      There Siegfried defeated one of the dwarf people and took away his invisibility cloak.
      And I think they will invent an invisible hat later, in the form of a device that will create a camouflage field around the object.))

    In general, it’s interesting that by chance the Americans did not deploy a system of buoys to fight submarines in the Pacific and the Atlantic. If submarines can get around it, temperature-density, etc. ... then surface ships are unlikely to be entangled with cloaks, it’s probably easier already build ships with stealth coatings and negative angles.

    Bad news! (For me).
    New Delhi (India), September 22 - It became known that the Ministry of Defense of India will conclude a contract with the French side for the supply of modern fighter Rafale in the amount of 36 copies on Friday 23 September.

    At the moment, it is known that the total transaction amount of France and India for the supply of military aircraft will be about 7, 87 billion dollars (or 58761000 rupees). However, before the manufacturer of the fighter Dassault Aviation planned to sell its samples to India for $ 10 billion, however, in the negotiations it was possible to find a way to reduce the price - 50% of the price will be invested in the development of the defense industry of the South Asian state ....

    We are not alone in doing this, because such means of camouflage are the future, there are more pluses than minuses, the only aspect is that while these developments are terribly expensive, and still "damp", but all this is being solved!

    Or maybe it would be more correct to write "Sword of the Kladynets", otherwise the real name "Sword-KladEnts" (with a dash and with an "e") somehow doesn't work for the new Russians.

    Do you have any idea what the article is about? The article says that "... the necessary military tests of a new means of protection against electronic warfare, which is commonly called the "invisibility cloak" for military equipment, are in full swing. This "cloak" is able to "hide" warships, aircraft, armored vehicles from the effects of modern and promising enemy electronic warfare equipment ...", but the fact that these means also allow you to hide reliable information in the radio wave range is only a plus, since the optical range is limited by the horizon, poor visibility and conventional camouflage, and the range of electronic detection is tens and hundreds of times greater and the usual camouflage from electronic detection almost does not help.

    Ferrite fabric protects against electromagnetic radiation in the frequency range from 0,5 GHz to 50 GHz. The material allows you to reduce the electromagnetic field level of a specific sample of military equipment to 10-30 dB (radiation reflected from the material) and up to 100 dB (radiation transmitted through the material). All this makes it possible to make both stationary and moving objects on the battlefield practically indistinguishable for high-precision weapons, which are guided by various physical fields: thermal, infrared and electromagnetic.

    No, of course everything is cool and interesting, especially when terms like "invisibility cloak" are used.

Based on this, the adversary can get a large number of false targets, among which it is almost impossible to find the real one.
    And this should mean that the returned signal must not only be distorted, but also "duplicated" many times. But this is really a new word in disguise. Well, it seems like the real Armata is standing and the signal displays a platoon of machine gunners ... Or something else harmless. soldier what

    I don't watch programs about magic tricks, because and it is so clear that this is a technical trick for a specific viewer at a specific point in space. Other "spectators" who are in another place see everything. In Moscow, in 1941, the entire Kremlin complex was masked with simple paint and shields to resemble ordinary residential areas. If the Germans flew to the Kremlin from the east, and not from the west, then the Kremlin would be visible in full view.

      Firstly, the name "invisibility cloak" in quotation marks means that the name is conditional. ... More precisely, it is called an electronic camouflage system.

    Do you have specific information about the futility of EW miracles? So share it. And so, throw a sentence and cheat, a big mind is not necessary. Give examples that in Syria they tried to use EW miracles, but failed. For example, write that the Russian air force base is constantly fired by militants and Russian soldiers die there and equipment is burning in huge quantities. Well, bolder with the facts!
