Expert: Russian tanks are still defenseless before "Javelins"

Information about the possible supply of American Javelin anti-tank complexes to Ukraine and other countries unfriendly to Russia caused a flurry of comments on the Internet, many of which boil down to the statement that “we are not afraid of the American miracleweapon"Writes Messenger of Mordovia.

In fact, everything is much more complicated. Independent military expert Alexei Khlopotov believes that in its current form all Russian serial Tanks almost defenseless against these complexes.

“Even with a lot of flaws, American ATGMs will be able to confidently disable armored vehicles that are in service. Therefore, it is urgent to undertake a series of measures that could reduce the effectiveness of such anti-tank weapons, ”the material says.

This is, first of all, the installation on tanks of active protection complexes, which could reliably hit ATGM.

Also, “it is necessary to improve the means of reducing thermal visibility, widely introduce aerosol cover systems, and to develop miniature laser systems for detecting anti-tank guided missiles and disabling their homing heads.”

In addition, "it is necessary to radically revise the principles of installation of dynamic protection, which should maximally reduce the effectiveness of attacking top of ammunition," the expert said.

Most of the above are already embodied on the promising heavy platform "Armata", but it is necessary that it is already being implemented on other armored vehicles operated in the army.

According to Khlopotov, in the troops “it is necessary to form special sniper teams armed with long-range weapons in order to identify and destroy the Javelin’s calculations as soon as possible; Artillery units should deal with this, interacting with reconnaissance equipment, primarily unmanned ones. ” The enemy must be disabled before the launch of their missiles.

Only an integrated approach will significantly reduce this threat, the expert concludes.

“Even with a lot of shortcomings, the American anti-tank systems can confidently disable the armored vehicles that are in service. Therefore, it is urgent to carry out a number of measures that could reduce the effectiveness of such anti-tank weapons "
Like the Russian anti-tank systems, too, having flaws will create a lot of problems for the Americans. What kind of expert is this? As far as I know, there are no invulnerable tanks and in the near future will not be. Especially if the tanks are used foolishly, without infantry cover, without interacting with artillery and aircraft, stupid head-on attacks on fortified defense units. Why write nonsense?

Therefore, ISIS failed to penetrate either Aleppo or Idlib. Captured

Do not smack nonsense dear !!! Well, they fought so much that until Russia came to Syria, ISIS controlled 2/3 of Syria and 1/2 of Iraq, miraculously seizing weapons depots, except that American planes were always "wrong" and dumped weapons, food and medicine them right to the location. And so they were able to come close to Baghdad ... And only urgent deliveries of Russian equipment to Iraq helped stabilize the situation ...

And the United States moved only after the success of the Russian Air Force in Syria, and not for the sake of defeating ISIS, but to prevent ISIS militants from escaping from Syria to Iraq and began to squeeze them out of Iraq into Syria !!! But that didn’t help either ...

So there is no need here to tell tales about the US struggle with ISIS, yet tell us that Israel is interested in defeating ISIS ...

USA and Israel are scoundrels ...

[just exp]

this is unlikely, Javelin just released the ATGM and forgot, that is, after the start, the operator can snoop and bury.
his main drawback is that it takes 30 seconds to aim at the target. that is, he took the target into sight and follow it for 30 seconds. so that the GOS could capture the target. and for 30 sec. the goal may fall.
Well, the second negative black, which however goes out of the plus (small dimensions), is the small range of Javelin, 2.5 km.

A GOS target captures a target only in direct line of sight, for almost a minute .. when it is upright, it should sit in front of machine guns, zushki .. and the same SovPTRK.
And 2.5 is the maximum launch range effective approx. 1 km ..
I don’t understand what the imba is this Java? GOS anti-aircraft missiles capture the target against the background of an always cold sky .. and even in such conditions, the target is not easy to destroy. On the ground, during the battle .. there are so many temptations for the thermal seeker of the javelin .. that their effectiveness is in doubt.

[just exp]

in Iraq, against Iraqi tanks, they performed well.

[Leeds]

To summarize the discussion:
The remnants of the former brains of VO decided that this was all propaganda, we had nothing to fear, their anti-tank systems were garbage. We don’t have this, not because we have problems with the development and implementation of GOS, and there is no point in patamush, because the RPG-7 burns Abrams of the last modification at a time, and even the good old BMP-1 is still a serious competitor to Abrache in the opposite the battle. Hooray!

Quote: just explo

in Iraq, against Iraqi tanks, they showed themselves well

You yourself here seemed to have focused specifically on Iraq, and Iraqi tanks (there are areas with different geography and other tank crews). Javelina has its advantages, but, perhaps, there are a few shortcomings.

—CBP does not allow target identification at distances over 2000 meters.
—The time of cooling the NVD is from 2.5 to 3.5 minutes.
- The cooling time of the GOS is about 10 seconds.
—The duration of operation of the power supply and cooling unit after activation is about 4-s minutes.
—In a time of limited visibility (natural or artificial), rain, snow, sleet, fog, smoke, smoke, dust, and night together are referred to as the conditions of limited visibility. The day sight may be useless under these conditions.
-Night:
—The day sight uses daylight to provide an operator with a target image.
—The PNV uses the natural infrared radiation of objects. The infrared crossover at dawn and dusk is very close to the temperature allowing the target to merge with the terrain. In the case when the difference in the amount of infrared energy of the target and the background is low enough, neither Javelina’s PBC, nor its GOS are able to distinguish the target. This greatly reduces the performance of Javelina. This situation can last up to an hour, until either the background temperature or the temperature of the target changes so much that it is possible to detect the target.
—Natural interference, for example, the sun can heat objects to a target that is close enough to the temperature that merges with the terrain.
—An artificial noise appears in the presence of artificial objects emitting a large amount of infrared energy (for example, burning vehicles).
- Heavy fog reduces the ability of the operator to detect targets and fire.
—The rocket’s flight trajectory limits its use in wooded, mountainous and urban areas.
—The operator must have a direct visibility of the target by the homing head to capture the target.
—Weather Javelina slows down marches with him over long distances. When using Javelina in foot orders, the load on the soldier greatly increases. With a total system weight slightly less than 22-kg, Javelin is quite heavy. Despite the fact that Javelin is a portable complex, one soldier is not able to carry it easily on rough terrain for a long period.
The transport-launch container Javelina is bulky and restricts its movement with it in densely overgrown thickets.
“The operator must remain partially open by exposing himself to enemy fire.”
—The CFP requires direct visibility to capture targets.

To this we can add that the use of conventional heat traps for shooting (as in aviation) may well be one of the measures to counteract attacks from Javelin.

[just exp]

there are no ideal systems. and it has flaws. but so far, Javelin has shown himself to be good, and the main thing for him is that he has a completely passive system, shot and immediately dive, while other ATGMs need to be aimed at ranges of several km, this time takes tens of seconds. and new KAZs not only detect ATGM itself, but also the launch site, and in Merkava for several years there has been a function of AUTOMATIC shelling of launch positions.
there that all sorts of ATGMs that the operator will still induce after launch, more and more become potential suicide bombers. and the javelin operator, after start-up, can dive into the hole even before 120 mm of HE blows in its position.

Mutually, Kostya! Here I am about the same. Absolutely invulnerable equipment does not exist, and therefore there is nothing to expose Russian tanks defenseless buckets with bolts and nuts.

[just exp]

so far only Merkavas are protected from Javilin, their Windbreaker protects the upper hemisphere, even the Arena will not help us.
and Javelin is effective against all old types of tanks and Leo2 and Abrams, since a weak top is a characteristic feature of all tanks. and only a full-fledged KAZ and systems such as Curtains (well, or a combination of them, such as Afganit, and KAZ and the interference system at the same time) can correct the situation.
by the way, in 93m we had a similar project, but the liberals cut everything.

[Jedi]

Thanks for the information, this also applies to your comment below. For those who are interested in the question there is no need to ask - you have already answered. And if you need more details - google to help.

[Sanichsan]

there are nuances.
it is effective in a standing car without any opposition (hedge similar to polygon conditions). in the face of opposition (far from the most modern means of the last century), the probability of hitting a target drops to 30%, and this is according to statements by American experts. the same American experts can not decide what is more effective than TOW or Javelin.
certainly Javelin is a danger to tanks but its effectiveness is greatly exaggerated (IMHO).

not to the upper part, but to attack the target at an angle of about 30 degrees. in the final section of the flight, the rocket makes about 5 sharp maneuvers at angles of 30-60 degrees, being adjusted relative to the target. while the target should be motionless. By the way, what does it mean? can't a Javelin tank get into a moving tank? very similar. due to its flight characteristics, the use of this rocket in urban development generally looks very problematic.

Observing in the right direction
It is clear that all the developments go back to our glorious socialist past, and in the 90s thanks to the enthusiasts and the “Cornet”, which were sold to the Arabs, hence the developments of the Indians and Chaynas. Knowledgeable people say that the “toad” is also from the Soviet documentation “spilina”, when it “flowed” like from a bucket, but it’s clear that it’s not finished, there is still gunpowder in the powder cupboards.
And as far as I know, Kuev worked on the IC GOS, and in Soviet times it was very serious and successful, even the entire 2000s Arsenal supplied us with the Mayak if I am not mistaken.

[just exp]

then we will wait, for we have long been waiting.
Cornet is a cool thing, but still laser guidance is often on the battlefield where dust, fog and smoke screens can mess.
and Hermes has been promising us for 5 years, but promising.

Strictly speaking, the “toad” is a very serious and effective machine, with all the nuances, and most importantly, since the mattresses are already going to send them to kaklam, then where are the guarantees that they don’t have a more serious joker up their sleeve ...
And in this case, we’ll be at least three years late.

When the Cornet begins to hit the roof, be used "from the shoulder", accompany the target after the shot while the operator wants the legs - they can be compared. To understand this, logic and a little brain activity are enough.
Like the anti-tank systems of his generation, Cornet is one of the best, it is indisputable, but Javelin from the next.

It seemed to me alone or not that Mr. expert Khlopotov was building up a whole strategy around the "javelin", and artillery, and UAVs, and KAZs .... and probably the calculations of the air forces will be guarded by the battalion forces .....?

According to Khlopotov, in the troops “it is necessary to form special sniper teams armed with long-range weapons in order to identify and destroy the Javelin’s calculations as soon as possible; Artillery units should deal with this, interacting with reconnaissance equipment, primarily unmanned ones. ” The enemy must be disabled before the launch of their missiles.
Only an integrated approach will significantly reduce this threat, the expert concludes.

You might think that there are no other threats and tasks.
PS.
I propose to include an option for an integrated approach - get 3 million for a javelin, wholesalers (from 10 pcs.) A million dollars.

[Solomon Kane]

Totally agree with you.
Moreover, from the context of the article it is clear that they are going to supply this type of weapon to our "neighbors" .... and in this situation the old wisdom comes to mind: "A craftsman with a needle, much more useful than a fool with a club."

[MoJloT]

The calculation of the complex may be located in kilometers from the contact line.

[Solomon Kane]

In the case of using the “Antisniper”, the ATGM operator can be shot dead immediately, since the “Antisniper” is also available as a sight for the ASVK large-caliber sniper rifle

Russian response to the Javelin anti-tank system operator

[MoJloT]

AT Javelin ATGM one huge + shot (60s) and slippers. And let the anti-sniper monitor all possible directions for 24 hours.

[Solomon Kane]

What is the dispute, dear?
Golden rule: for every scrap there is scrap No. 2

[MoJloT]

Strength in Newtons! And this is the merit of our MO and CAA.

[mishaia_23]

Even having a lot of shortcomings, the American anti-tank systems can confidently disable the armored vehicles that are in service.

Not possible to use with smoke, dust, fog, snow and rain.
Ok weather conditions but in battle unless smoke or dust.
The target must be in direct line of sight for capture, therefore difficult to use in urban environments and forests.

In a word, a good machine, but only on a plain and without obstacles shooting range, and not in battle ...

[rocket757]

I want to add that if you don’t point and shoot from Java for the first time, in eleven seconds, then you can only score pegs or crosses on the grave! Here she is such a tricky little thing.
RPGshka it is simple of course, but reliable as ... Kalash.
Yes, by the way, the Java operator is a trained specialist, and a GOOD shooter, a piece of goods ... whoever associates this with ukrovoyaki?

[MoJloT]

You really go too far comparing RPGs and Java.

[rocket757]

I don’t bend and do not compare ... they are of different generations and although their application goals seem to intersect, Java is a more advanced device. She just has her own characteristics, requiring a very trained shooter. RPG is simpler, more reliable, but in order to achieve effective defeat of a well-protected equipment, it is required to do, if not a miracle, then try hard.
There are facts of the destruction of armor with the help of the PKK, enough to conclude that this is possible. Not shot at the shooting range, in a real battle !!!

wow, but I didn’t know that he was so "greenhouse". Thanks for the info.

[rocket757]

A “hothouse” ts, a high-tech unit ... at that time they could not \ did not want to supply it with a more capacious battery, and the brains and control kinema require ENERGY. Here, after all, the question is whether it’s either very expensive, or to cook the arrow efficiently. Yankees, counted and decided - we are preparing shooters. An army of professionals is certainly cool, but very expensive.
Look how much they spent on the preparation of their barmalei !!! The truth is, zilch.
So it turns out that the java barmalei did not appreciate it, it’s expensive, difficult, and after the “misfire” (aiming for more than 20 seconds) you need to take this fool to the BRAND WORKSHOP.
Here is such a compote. In short RPG steers.
By the way, the Tova is deprived of precisely these shortcomings, range, stealth is better ... although the arrow also needs to be prepared QUALITATIVELY !!!

Not energy, but cooling the thermal imaging unit. There is a small supply of liquid nitrogen.

[rocket757]

All thermal-type homing heads must be cooled, the Java has a cooling battery, and yes there is compressed gas (not nitrogen, different, the same principle) in different models for different min 19 sec. Replacement in PU, on the spot was not provided. Those. not fired, PU with a missile to the side. the control device, like many, is reusable.

[Genry]

Alas .. But in Javelin, the cylinder with a cooler is interchangeable and designed for several starts. And rockets can be used after an unsuccessful attempt.

[Leeds]

The experience of anti-tank systems in Syria, I see, is not even considered here. Therefore, it turns out that our tanks are always on the move, in smoke, dust, aviation, artillery are always nearby, corrected from drones live, snipers detecting and laying ATGM calculations from 2 km away. Here Syria is another hot example. But, most importantly, speak in a dignified manner))

There is such a bird, Willow lives on a tree!

Nuclear charge, not otherwise.
Whether the tank is hit by explosives or not, it will burn anyway, even if without “explosives” there is just BK.

[Genry]

Modern BC does not explode from the "stream". It is very unlikely that it will just catch fire, or more often it will simply melt.

At the test site in a standing tank in the afternoon. I would have hit this tank with enough sledgehammer.
And during the battle after the fire rampart, accompanied by BMPT tanks, infantry, helicopters? Even if the calculation and stayed in the bunker, then leaning out of the mink, the goggled homosexual suddenly sees a horse Buryat in scuba gear and a police cap. And that’s it.
This is a weapon for the war against single BBM and ambushes. And these brothers are not war. These are brothers bullshit.
I once read the memoirs of a veteran of the Great Patriotic War.
He talked about participating in some kind of offensive in the second echelon. At first he worked out the artillery RGK, then the army, divisional artillery. So our fighters, seeing the consequences of this firestorm, were themselves horrified. The Germans were dying in the bunker simply because all the oxygen was burned out. And tore to shreds with a dynamic blow.
Where is the place for the Javelins in this case?

I'm just not special, and I'm interested. and "evelina" only goes to infrared radiation? it’s an anachronism, there’s clearly something else. Our “Cornet” will turn out to be cooler, and Westerners will obviously not breathe evenly, because this is more reliable, the EW systems are sideways. not this way?

[just exp]

Javelin’s IR GSN, and the tank warms up completely, the silhouette of the entire tank is visible in the thermal imager. not just the engine.

[Temnik 2017]

Recognition by silhouette?
And why nowhere do they write about such an option for the javelins, but only about the infrared seeker ??

[just exp]

so the IG GSN is different, as is the resolution of its matrix.
Javelin has 64 × 64 pixels for pedivics.

[Temnik 2017]

The algorithm selects, as the target coordinates, those coordinates of the template overlay that showed the maximum correlation peaks. Up to a distance of 100-300 meters, the target details for the low-resolution matrix like Javelin are almost indistinguishable, therefore the algorithm responds more to the target as a point object.
If the target photo is very different from the template (shows a weak correlation), then the already new target image is stored as a new set of correlation points (“adapted template”) and repeated from step 2.
(Wikipedia)
That is, heat traps for a javelin will be a more attractive object if their radiation is much higher than that of a tank.

[just exp]

it depends on how many pixels the IR trap will occupy. if it is shallow compared to the tank, it will not bite.

[Grandfather]

Quote: just EXPL

Javelin’s IR GSN, and the tank warms up completely, the silhouette of the entire tank is visible in the thermal imager. not just the engine.

oh how .... is the tank fully heated? you are mistaken, my friend. through the armor, the cooling and exhaust system does not pass. the tank can heat up only when it burns.

[just exp]

I meant that it is not completely and evenly warmed up and is visible as a single equally heated object, but the fact that the armor begins to differ from the background temperature, and the hotter back is more prominent, but still the whole outline starts to glow.
so far the most fucked-up matrix seekers are now going to the UR explosives and missiles, look at how it all looks on Python (the matrices are certainly better than javelin there, but from time to time the javelin will improve to this level)

[Mwg]

And the expert is right. Javelin hits tanks from the upper hemisphere. As a rule, tanks from this direction are poorly protected: even during WWII, our IL-2 attack aircraft hit the Germans in towers and the hood from above with NURSs and cannon fire. And now, traditionally, the horizontal armoring of towers and hoods is relatively subtle in tanks - the struggle for weight is nothing to be done.
However, in Russia, to protect the tank from the upper hemisphere, an active defense system was developed and adopted, and for some reason, it seems to me that the Javelins have successfully tested it too. So the author is right, but was 5 years late with the article)))))

[just exp]

not really, the aftir already wrote that this issue was worked out with Armata, there Afganit counteracts such ATGMs as Javelin, moreover, Afghanit prevents even ammunition from being guided by ammunition.
but tanks like T-62,64,72,80,90. to the javelins are still vulnerable.

Russia should return its historical territories under its flag, and not produce independent states sitting on the neck of the Russian Federation ... And I do not need to write about the Kremlin’s heroic attempts to not drag Russia into the war. The United States and its allies will be able to arrange a serious provocation at any time, after which the war will become inevitable and the more cowardly commanders will be in Russia, the faster NATO will attack the Russian Federation, believing in the cowardice of the Russian command and its impunity ... Already now the voices of those who believes that, for example, after China’s strike on Novosibirsk, Russia should put up with its loss and not use nuclear weapons in China ... Russia has no way with such people, especially with such people in power ... Only a guaranteed retaliation strike on enemy territory it keeps him from attacking the Russian Federation and it doesn’t matter who this enemy is today, or tomorrow, in the east, or in the west ... Although, in my opinion, a war with Japan is much more likely than a war with China ...

That's right. In Syria, this has been honed in modern combat conditions. There is a film, the work of our SSN in Syria - intelligence and snipers. The effect of their work is amazing. These same guys 5-6 fighters, brought 29 of our military police, who were blocked in a circular, to the battalion of "thugs."

[_Jack_]

Which boil up in the comments rose. Everything is so saliva and spatter. And what is so new that the "expert" wrote? This is true - our 72s are absolutely defenseless against the 3rd generation ATGM (actually the 2nd too). And what's wrong with the fact that it is proposed to increase the protection of tanks from anti-tank systems? Only no one will do this, that's bad.

The primary task of the army sniper - the destruction of the calculations of anti-tank systems and officers was always before Javelin.

That's just the arrow of Javelin is much more difficult to hit - he does not need to keep the target in sight and stick around in front of the sniper all the time the flight of the rocket. He shot and hid. But our calculations ATGM will snipers mow, because we have no homing ATGMs of any kind. And, as always, the lack of modern weapons is replaced by a loud propaganda of its uselessness, saying that our 2nd generation is better than their 3rd.

[rocket757]

And when, where and which tank is fully protected from anti-tank weapons ???
As in school and college they teach !!! The protection of the tank depends on the professionalism of the crew and of course the competent \ correct use of it !!!
That's all accounting, for the amount of losses, I, the preservation of personnel.

[MoJloT]

But what about the average life expectancy of a tank in battle?

[Zaurbek]

What is needed or unnecessary here? The Russian Federation has mastered the production of IR Matrices (kneading French) not so long ago. Three years ago. Javelin analogue is not a primary goal. The primary goal is (personally my opinion) an analogue of Spike with a range of 10-25km. And the replacement of the old anti-tank systems and anti-tank guns with modern Cornets with automatic target tracking.

I still do not understand why in that conflict, if you look at the losses of Russian equipment, there were old tanks there.
They really couldn’t throw more modern equipment into the conflict than the T-62M, T-72, BMP-1, etc.

[Muvka]

During the Georgian conflict, our forces were very weak after the 90s. They were just starting to rebuild at that time. And there was no corny modern technology in that direction - and they didn’t have time to throw it there. Our country is not 20 to 30 km. But the war lasted only a few days.

Already there were many modern tanks all the same 2008.

I just thought that such junk should no longer participate in conflicts at all.

All the same, this is not the depths of Russia and the troops must possess more modern equipment.

[Muvka]

There was no time to throw modern tanks. They are all westbound, I suspect. And I repeat. Our country is huge - it is difficult to quickly throw tanks.

[MoJloT]

The IS-3 was removed from service in 93. So everything is known by comparison.

[rotmistr60]

Couldn’t have been able to throw more modern equipment into the conflict

Sorry, there was no time to consult with Israel, the bill went on for minutes.

[Zaurbek]

There were modern tanks, but the 58th army was in that region and was one of the most combat-ready at that time. The war in Georgia revealed a lot of problems and old tanks are the most insignificant part of them.

from Russia or Georgia? didn’t mix anything up? how many tanks in this conflict did Russia lose?

[Black5Raven]

More important is the number of planes lost. And most of the friendly fire

[Anchonsha]

Well, and what such Khlopotov stated it was not clear that everyone flooded this way? Yes, we need to create such protection for our armored vehicles so that the crews of armored vehicles think little about it. And Khlopotov is right. In addition to active protection, we need to find American ATGMs in advance according to their specific signs of which there are many. After all, they need to cool their homing heads, and this already requires the creation of such units.

[Alexex]

I am not an expert ... but I can read. See "The Americans tested the Soviet system Drozd" ... interestingly there they shot from the Javelins ??? if there are knowledgeable people tell me ... otherwise something does not fit in the messages ...

[unignm]

have not yet come up with a tank which our vampire could not bite

[Zaurbek]

KAZ needs modern tanks urgently. Even without the Javelins, the TOU and the Cornets will gut any tanks, even in the forehead, even in the ass ...

[Elephant]

Javelin - 3rd generation ATGM. Only Israel and India have analogs. And our cheers-patriots (all the troubles from them) have raised, they are ready to throw their caps over the enemy and scare them with their bare ass ... We must really look for effective ways to protect ourselves.

[Zaurbek]

KAZ will bring down a javelin. ATGMs are massive weapons and the army should have what is well mastered by industry. I would start with the introduction of KAZ on all our tanks in constant readiness units.

[Cxnumx]

Russian tanks are defenseless before the Javelins

Well, if ancient RPGs (and sometimes just heavy machine guns) can confidently hit abrams ...

[Sergey53]

This topic has already been raised so many times, but by 0. How much do they write about the insecurity of the turret in the upper and front \ gun mask \ plane and has anything changed? The T-72 used by the former members of the VD is finalized, but in our industry it cannot. What the hell is this?

[Strashila]

As Raikin said ... for complete happiness something should always be missing. Techniques will always have flaws and they need to be minimized. The basis of victory will always be intelligence, communications, preparedness and training, coordination and interaction of units.

[rocket757]

This would be the tactics of the tanker, in discussion, he would explain where the tank "steers" and where it is impossible to drive.
The bulk of the heavy equipment designed for linear combat.
For assault urban combat, the equipment is equipped / designed differently, and the tactics of use are different.
Now a question? Our army is preparing to storm the city gate. The Syrian company et episode.
If someone climbs to capture other cities, he will get the same problems as the SAA.
So there is a lot of talk, but no one in a SERIOUS classic armored vehicle is in a hurry to change. Modify, come up with various useful gadgets for technology, but for some reason there are no fundamental changes in the concept!
So guess why?

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

I agree 100% about the installation of KAZ and more advanced DZ on tanks and all armored vehicles, but about the snipers and artillerymen who will hunt precisely for the ATGM calculations, Javelin is all nonsense, you won’t put a platoon of snipers for each tank, and they’re nothing they won’t help that they will run ahead of the tank during a tank attack ?! Javelin has a range of 2500 meters, and not every 800 meter sniper hits the target ...
Armored vehicles simply need to have self-defense against ATGMs, both active and passive, so it will be more reliable. And disguise will be even more important, the use of such means as the “Cape” it hides the tank even from the thermal imager, which means that it will be more difficult for the thermal homing head of Javelin to aim at the target, or maybe it will not be able to aim at all ...
And in order not to hit your KAZ infantry, you can make it in sectors, for example, on the front and rear, when infantry is behind the tank, the KAZ can be turned off from the rear, as well as from the front for certain tasks, when necessary ...

[MoJloT]

Well done, and then here some with these miracle snipers are already surprising.

[Sergey53]

It is for these purposes that BMPT is needed. Its task is to remove grenade launchers, ATGM calculations.

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

BMPT ATGM calculation how to detect ?! But the BMPT ATGM calculation can be easily detected and quickly hit, and the crew of this BMPT will not understand where the death came from ...

They themselves were sitting in military technique ?! Well, how is the review excellent ?! Probably especially on the go))) And in a battle it’s so wonderful everything will be visible especially in urban areas ...

BMPT can and has the right to life, practice will show, but it also needs KAZ and DZ from all sides and preferably a panoramic sight with all the channels and thermal and infrared and conventional ...

[weksha50]

"Independent military expert Alexei Khlopotov believes that in its present form, all Russian production tanks are practically defenseless against these complexes"...

Ahem ... Strange ... These "Javelins" have been so many years old ... And all this time, our scientists, designers, military and industrialists have been complacent, sipping who is tea, who is cognac ??? And did not think about the defenselessness of our tanks ???
And the concept of "defenselessness of the tank" is very loose ...

[rocket757]

And this “independent expert” considers it’s counting how you can protect the shooter in a linear battle, in an open field, steppe or desert from shrapnel. fragments and other joy. which will fly in the direction of sales not an obvious shooter. and in the place of the alleged ambush, heat, or where the grass has moved. It is not otherwise shaw cyborgs with java will run.
In short, there is a means of destruction, there will be a counteraction to it, but for a tank, this is primarily a maneuver and speed.
Not for nothing that none of the alleged enemy refused any anti-tank weapons, having saturated the army with javas, etc. systems.
The whole strike force is opposed to the great striking force that armored units represent ... grenade launchers here are the last chance for the infantry to defend themselves against the threat of being rolled into a pancake.
Fight in urban environments, a separate issue. It has specificity, however.

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

It’s just all right, in Russia it’s always like that until a mountain of corpses of Russian soldiers appears, no one moves at the top, remember though when Contact-1 began to be put on the tanks that were sent to Chechnya, and not even that, only after huge losses from ATGMs and RPG in the city !!! They didn’t know that a tank without DZ for calculating RPGs in the city and PTUKR in the field is just a target ?! They knew they just didn’t give a damn, because the son of a man who brought tanks into Chechnya did not serve in the army and did not intend to, he humored on TV, and then married Pugacheva and now lives with her in the castle ... And you say why you didn’t think, Yes, they wanted to spit on ordinary fighters, not to think about them and how to protect them in battle or provide everything necessary ...
After a devastating defeat during the storming of Grozny, you think somehow punished Galkin Alexander Alexandrovich, Colonel General, who until 1997 headed the main armored directorate of the Russian Ministry of Defense, for the fact that the tanks were not prepared for battle, and where there were even containers for DZ, there was no filler for them ?! There was no punishment, then he also became a deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation ...

[sir_obs]

All this talk is about nothing.
"Experts" argue about what they never saw alive, and all only from the words of some sources there and other popular mechanics.
How can you argue about something you don’t know in principle? One can argue with the same success on the topic of steel grade or new alloys. If you are not a metalurgist, then all you can give is links to some people or articles (usually not scientific, but from popular publications)
I am not a tanker and once fired from an RPG and a recoilless gun. All the impressions of the pokatushek on the tank, it’s a complete baffle how to fight in this thing at all, and from a shot from an RPG (especially from a recoilless gun) it’s completely crazy, like a damn loud ... no more feelings
The Marines, on a return visit, visited our boat and were in similar perplexity, how is it even possible to serve here and, if so, to survive?
I mean, to draw serious conclusions, and not, as our commander said, "fart in agony," You need to understand on your own skin what you are discussing. Have the appropriate education, experience and at least once visit a real combat situation.
This is like in a conversation between two cowboys from the wild west. This is the best revolver! And why? Because I'm still alive!

[Sanichsan]

Dear!
I was looking for video information on this very Javelin and I had one question, and this prodigy in general once tried to use in combat conditions ???
did not find any videos with combat use. only at the training ground or in advertising clips. in the USA is this miracle weapon equivalent to a strategic one that they are afraid to use it in battle?

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

In Iraq, they often used them ...

[Sanichsan]

Quote: Ratmir_Ryazan

where exactly. for what purposes. what are the results. please video application.
I did not find. only demonstrations and shooting at the firing range.
while from the section "well, we dived under the Russian submarine and broke its bottom."

[Victor-M]

Expert: Russian tanks are still defenseless before "Javelins"

And why then are electronic warfare systems being developed? So apply in combination with tanks, to cover the latter.

[Svarozhich]

Something intuition tells me that it is precisely because the Javelins have a complex target recognition system, the distance to it is a good property for deceiving it, and destroying this ammunition with tricks at the cost of a tourist tent can become our tankers' favorite pastime.

[zoolu350]

I don’t understand why many Javelin ATGM fans think of Wunderwaffles. The missiles of this ATGM are aimed at the thermal circuit of the target, which can change at a time in battle conditions and after that the expensive blank will stupidly not get anywhere.

[Eflintuk]

We are clearly talking about the use of Jewels in the DNR-LNR, and here you are again about the "indestructible power" of the Russian army ...

[Vadim237]

Our tanks and armored vehicles should be wary of AGM-114L Longbow Hellfire and Brimstone 2 missiles.

[rocket757]

There is armored, protected equipment - means / countermeasures will be made.
The theme will exist and develop while this equipment is in service.
By the way, missiles more abruptly developed and ... expensive, not every army / state can afford it, especially on a massive scale. In each state there are structures \ ministry of finance and "cut wings of warriors", in the interests of economy !!! there is one.

[Evgeny Kazakov]

What to guess? In Syria, it is not difficult to get such a rocket launcher. Take yes shell the 90th. And the "experts" are all like Safronov the artist, Chubais - the economist, and Tsereteli - the sculptor

That's collapsed, he was not mistaken. Mass production is not planned.

Collapsed, this is when they will not release anything at all.

[Vadim Kurbatov]

And which tank can withstand getting into the weakest protected part of the tank? name at least one such

[Print_Factory]

Well, yes ... we heard that

[Sergey Minin]

Never in their life will tanks be able to withstand anti-tank weapons. They are for the other. This does not mean that they do not need to be protected. We are all talking about Javelin, and it costs 248 thousand dollars. 100 thousand rocket. It needs to be cooled with nitrogen, etc. So there is still an Israeli anti-tank system "Spike" even more effective. Well, anti-tank Kornet range 5.5 km or anti-tank Korned -D range of 10 km, I think not one tanker would not want to meet. As for the DLNR tanks, they are very old, but I think these Javelins will not make the weather.

[a-duhanin58]

Oh, I feel that the krivorukovy Ukrainian fighters are overshooting each other with these javelins! Poor things ...

[Peregon zameuka]

Personally, I do not care about the new military spending while sugar at 39 r in the store, and not at 51 as last year.

[tank64rus]

No need to make Wunderwafle out of the Javelins. There are advantages and disadvantages. This is for any type of weapon.

[panzerfaust]

Javelin, if he successfully reaches the goal, hits the tower from above, it will be necessary to weld the grates.

[serj.iwanow1000]

The trouble is that few know history, but very many watch historically false fictional films, read historical false books and are brought up on these films and other works! And this is a great crime of the authors before future generations. Creation of such vicious, deceitful and fictional plots that destroy young souls, for which they need to be judged and imprisoned, as the most ardent criminals!
There is such a parable: A criminal killer, a soldier and chased, lying scoundrels — a scribbler, journalist, director, liberal politician and priest — appeared before God. God tells them.
- I will repay you all according to your deserts, well, tell me honestly, without lying about who, what sins are listed?
Here is the killer criminal responding first. - God forgive me, I committed many crimes because of my stupidity and because of the difficulty of my hard, awkward life, I even killed a person once. It can be seen fate in my hell to rot! I repent before you repent! The great blame lies with me for the ruined soul!
God looked at him strictly and carefully, and said to the angels: "Send him to purgatory, and then to heaven! And there it will be seen!"
- Well, you're a soldier, what do you say? - God asks him!
- I, too, am sinful before you God! I fought for my homeland with her enemies, I ruined many souls in this terrible war not wanting this, but in debt I defended my people from the aggressor! Forgive me. God is guilty. I am in front of you and those killed by me!
- I know everything about your life and death and I know everything! And God said to the angels. “Take him to Paradise, let his soul be warmed up with goodness and love, and then send him back in a new guise, let him live a new life, bring benefit and correct his past life for humanity!”
Well, you tell me, God looked very evil at the rest!
“God forgive us if we are sinful before you!” - The chorus was interspersed with prayers of false and selfish scribbler, journalist, liberal politician and pop. We didn’t commit crimes and murders, we wrote articles, books, made films for people, managed society, taught people faith in you as they could and could. “Yes, you tried well,” God said sternly. - I know everything and know about you and the priest! And he says to the devil and demons: "Take them to hell, let them repent and atone for their great sin, and then we will see. And the false scribe, journalist, director, politician and priest prayed:" God forgive us, for which we such torment? After all, we didn’t kill anyone, we didn’t commit crimes, why do we need such a punishment? "I know everything, I know everything, you didn’t understand your sins, not before me, but before humanity. You have corrupted me a lot of souls with your deceit and self-interest, there is no forgiveness you until you wave off in hell!

Never again lie to those who from childhood have cared for you, trying to make you good people! Without the Soviet government, the Communists and the Great October Socialist Revolution, many of you traitors who have taken the side of capitalism serve him as greedy, self-serving people and other similar gentlemen as liberals, anti-communists, anti-Soviet with Nazis and nationalists in their arms - verbiage, liars, slanderers to the Soviet power and the history of Russia and the USSR, for the most part, they would have been nothing, at best insects and bedding from their wealthy masters, slaves or farm laborers! You have no conscience and honor, you have betrayed the great deeds of your ancestors, those who brought you to the people and protected you from destruction and slavery, leaving you a more just society and the state of the USSR!
