"Armokom" began serial deliveries to the Russian special services of body armor for service dogs


“This year we have already begun deliveries of BZhS (body armor for dogs) to the Russian special services. Also, our dog vests for dogs are delivered to special units of the Ministry of Defense of Uzbekistan. Our products are designed for German Shepherd Dogs and Labradors, of which they prepare assault dogs. We have already received an additional order for the development of mini-ballistic helmets to protect the dog’s head, as well as special pick-up points covering the face and head of the four-legged fighter against shards and strikes. In the near future we plan to present these products ", - Elena Kormakova, deputy director general of the enterprise, told the newspaper.

Earlier, sapper dogs began purchasing body armor with a maximum degree of protection weighing about 5 kg.

“Sapper armored vests protect against strong explosions of mines and improvised explosive devices. But in such products the dog loses mobility and cannot quickly run and jump on the opponent. A sapper dog should slowly walk alongside his guide and look for a mine by scent. Moreover, a heavy body armor is preferable, as in it the dog will not break free, run away and thus be distracted from the search for mines. In fact, it is a heavy shell that completely covers the animal's body, turning the dog into a tortoise in its shell, ”a source in the special services told Izvestia.

As for the BJS lung, it looks like a “human” body armor, the newspaper writes. “The dog’s body is covered by a thicker protection, which is connected by a movable design with chest protection. This technical solution does not prevent the dog to turn his head and stretch his neck when he commits the bite and capture of the attacker. The upper part of the paws of four-legged Special Forces troops is covered with movable armor panels, similar to those used to protect forearms in regular bulletproof vests, ”the article says.

According to the newspaper, Bjs belongs to the class of protection "Br1", that is, "protects from the Stechkin automatic pistol fired from a distance of five meters 9-mm bullets with steel cores."

    A sign of a civilized state.

    Sapper body armor protect against strong explosions of mines and improvised explosive devices. But in such products the dog loses its mobility and cannot quickly run and jump on the enemy. A sapper dog should slowly walk next to its guide and search for a mine by smell. Moreover, a heavy body armor is preferable, since in it the dog will not break out, run away and thereby be distracted from the search for mines. In fact, this is a heavy shell that completely covers the body of the animal, turning the dog into a tortoise in shell

    The next stage is a self-propelled shell for a dog. For 5 kg of sapper body armor, and even a pawn in the heat - for a dog this is clearly difficult.

      It's not hard, after a year the backbone gets stronger, they begin to accustom themselves to "vests" with sand, increasing the weight. For the development of the pectoral muscles, collars with a load are used, sometimes they are tied to a harness, through a cable, a tire from a car, etc.

We have already received an additional order to develop mini-ballistic helmets to protect the dog’s head, as well as special pick-up glasses that cover the face and head of the four-legged soldier from shrapnel and bumps. In the near future we plan to introduce these products, ”said Elena Kormakova, deputy general director of the enterprise, to the newspaper.

      Indeed, there are dog and horse gas masks. Now it's the turn for body armor. Interestingly, will they develop armor for service horses? If so, they may soon introduce a new type of troops, "knightly" units of heavy cavalry. laughing In general, the news about dogs is pleasant, because lately there has been one chernukha.

    The dog, of course and undoubtedly, is a friend. But a good and trained dog besides everything else is also expensive. Training requires a lot of effort and time. OKD and ZKS takes even more than one month, and special training! Therefore, protect the dogs as best as possible.

    Once you have been given a service dog, keep it and protect it as you are, and it will sacrifice itself for your salvation ... The dog - it is the same human soul, it’s a little younger.

    "the more I get to know people, the more I love dogs" by Heinrich Heine ...... and only service dogs !!! not in vain, apparently, "Officer of the K-9 squad Kai died of wounds received during the arrest of a dangerous criminal. Sergeant Ryan Stark and his colleagues accompanied his four-legged partner on the last journey."
    On July 30, 1941, the Leibstandart Adolf Hitler brigade attacked the village of Legedzino. The attack was repelled by 500 border guards. During this battle, a border detachment destroyed many enemy manpower and 17 tanks. But the forces were unequal, the ammunition ran out. The last reserve of the defenders was a cynological detachment with 150 service dogs. When several live border guards remained on the battlefield, 150 service shepherds were fired at the enemy, after which the German offensive was stopped on this section of the front for almost two days.

    In this battle, all the border guards died. The surviving dogs were shot after the battle by German soldiers. Local residents buried the dead border guards and their dogs in a mass grave at the battlefield. In 1955, the remains of border guards and dogs were reburied near the village school, where today there is a mass grave. On the outskirts of the village near the Zolotonosha-Uman highway, where this battle took place, on May 9, 2003 a monument was unveiled to the heroes of the border guards and their service dogs. The monument was erected at the expense of the participants of the Great Patriotic War from Zvenigorodka and several villages of Talnovsky district
    something like this....

    As the interview of B. Assad Daria (KP) showed, the history of the Second World War taught him nothing, but you just need to expropriate 150 dogs (and more) from Moscow dog lovers walking their pets, train them for barmalei and load them with body armor and dynamite, release them in Aleppo.
    This B. Assad does not have a strategic vision ...
