USA: Tandem of S-400 and "Shell" will close the sky for NATO

57
The use of the Triumph C-400 anti-aircraft missile system and the Pantsir-C1 anti-aircraft missile system in the tandem will have a “dramatic effect” for the Russian army’s ability to restrict and prevent access to its territory (the concept of anti-access and area denial). , A2 / AD), said the experts of The Jamestown Foundation.

“Dramatic” in this case is for all potential opponents of Russia, because it will be almost impossible to penetrate its airspace.



USA: Tandem of S-400 and "Shell" will close the sky for NATO


The authors of the material paid special attention to the development of the Pantsir-S1 air defense missile system, the capabilities of which have been significantly expanded in recent years. In particular, a small-sized rocket, unofficially nicknamed "The Nail", was developed for this complex. It is designed to deal with drones. It is also expected that in the near future the Pantsirs will be able to detect targets at a distance of up to 75 kilometers instead of the current 40, and the radius of destruction from 20 kilometers will double.

It is noteworthy that there are simply no similar ZRPK, which in essence represent the final line of air defense, in the US Army. This is explained by the fact that the Americans are betting on the power of their air force, and they have not encountered any serious opponents with strong potential in the air for a long time. Note that just the other day the American media recognized the "Armor-C 1" almost perfect weapons against massed raids of enemy drones.

C-400 systems, by contrast, are the first line of defense for air defense, because they are able to detect targets at a distance of 600 kilometers, and shoot them down at a distance of 400 kilometers. Experts noted that in Russia exercises are already being held, where these two anti-aircraft missile systems are being used in tandem, as it was recently in the Kaliningrad region. And together with the use of radio-electronic warfare, they can be used not only for defense, but also for effective counter-offensive, added the Jamestown Foundation staff, reports "WG-Force"

          The division of the upgraded anti-aircraft missile-cannon systems (ZRPK) "Shell-C2" entered service with the Vladivostok anti-aircraft missile regiment. This was stated by the representative of the press service of the Eastern Military District Roman Martov, reports TASS.

          "Self-propelled air defense systems" Shell-C2 "take up combat duty, covering the sky of the main base of the Pacific Fleet. In the second half of this year, the Vladivostok regiment will be replenished with a set of the S-400 Triumph system. Now his calculations are undergoing planned retraining, ”Martov explained.

          By “Vladivostok regiment” is meant the 1533th anti-aircraft missile regiment equipped with S-300PS systems.

      In any war, quantitative characteristics are also important. A swarm of drones. What is a swarm with a range of thousands of kilometers? Or run from a neighboring garden? The kitchen garden is killed by one means, and thousand-kilometer starts by others. A good chess player has good command of ALL pieces. Bad - only a couple - three figures. Therefore, a bad one.
      And the last one. Did you fly a drone? And, especially, a thousand km away? How do you see a drone swarm control? A swarm of operators?
      How about mutual interference, both on the air and physically to each other? They didn’t think that the swarm was confused in an elementary way, in bulk, and not in retail, by undermining something voluminously exploding in their path? A lot of what do these plywood homemade products need? Or a cough of a megawatt jammer? Lovely, not work. In one fell swoop a whole swarm of beatings.

      And it always comes to them for a long time and, basically, through one place. The arrogance is second to none. For them, besides their little world - nowhere else is civilization. And here it is not clear what would be better: for this to become a catastrophic surprise for the “partners” or just a VERY unpleasant discovery (as in this case). That is why they either get angry, sometimes sailors, or the Kyrgyz Republic pour in a bunch of incomprehensible from what, and here it turns out that the Russian air defense was “intelligently” made. It’s all about discoveries that are incomprehensible to the amer brain.

        While SCAD missiles and anti-missiles were almost the same age, they shot down 20%. Then the Dome appeared, and they began to beat the same SKUDS 80%. Then something even more expensive will appear and they will begin to shoot 90% SKADS. And you try to beat the Iskanders with your Domes. Which are the same age.

    Maybe they would have had similar air defense systems, but they have the concept of a lightning massive strike, that is, the whole strategy is based on attacking and quickly suppressing the enemy with aviation and missile systems, and not on defending and holding captured territories. Therefore, Amer’s orders go more to new aviation, and not to air defense systems.

      So it is. But let's look at least at the line of our tanks after the Second World War: 55-ki, 64, 72, 80, 90 and now - Armata. Now we have 72, 80s running gears, I don’t know how now, at this time, but about 20 years ago both 55s and 64s in many parts were also on the go and were used in textbooks. And the amers have one Abrams, to whom from time to time they screwed a new twist for half a century - that’s the whole design idea. Also in other weapons, we have more nomenclature, more diverse. Therefore, the quality is better and the price tag is lower, they learn to do cheaper with us. And, of course, the invaluable experience of the Second World War helped to create worthy samples.

      Their potential is not even known laughing
      But the S-400, and especially the S-500 (I suppose it will be a symbiosis of the line from the Shell, Morpheus, Vityaz, Triumph to Nudoli "on a new elemental base" and "new physical principles") will not be out of place.
      As a matter of fact, we need the Star Wars program as Americans. The task is to frighten the enemy so much that he even forgets to think about the usual war with us, and if he snoops around as a reconnaissance in battle, he smudges his nose on the battery and kicks him in the liver with kidneys, it hurts. In the absence of opportunities to seriously bite aviation and missiles, there remains only parity in nuclear weapons, which leads to stability. Even more, the development of our air defense is slowly pulling the "blanket" of this parity to our half.
      Naturally, the Russians will not begin a hot showdown, do we need it?
      But to control "changes for the better" and the pursuit of universal prosperity with our priority - why not?

      As the Odessa comedians Kartsev and Ilchenko used to say, "ask the seller of tomatoes in the market from the tank to the click of a viewing device, slowly swinging the barrel from side to side - How much, how much ???"
      This is what we strive for.
      Hurry already.

    I clearly had the opinion that the lessons of 1941 were strictly learned when the enemy aircraft "went over their heads" and did a lot of trouble. And that this should not happen again. And the Americans cannot understand that the terrible mistakes we made in the past are written into our genetic code, and in the future, strong immunity is developed. In this case, manifested in the creation of a deeply layered system to prevent attacks, missile defense and air defense. I also hope that the air defense aviation units will be reborn in full grandeur.

    at whose expense is the banquet? A heavier and more expensive rocket? Which, naturally, will lead to a reduction in ammunition. And to which link do these machines now belong?
    For me, so you need to leave the Shell almost as it is i.e. his concept ZRPK), only to supplement it with even cheaper missiles, as well as something to finally do with his artillery.
    The medium-range missiles can be solved in two ways:
    1. Or the creation of a specialized multi-channel and "rapid-fire" air defense system with missiles with a range. 35-45 km, or introduce similar missiles (when installed in a package of 4) into a standard TPK of the same S-300/400. And nefig garden fence.
