"Ledum" and "Derivation-Air Defense". Air Defense News

At present, the domestic defense industry is developing several prospective small-radius anti-aircraft systems for certain types of troops. Systems on different chassis are offered, using different means of destruction, etc. At the very end of March, defense complex enterprises told about their recent successes in the development of promising anti-aircraft complexes.

30 in March, the press service of Rostec State Corporation published data on the activities of the High-Precision Complexes Holding, which is part of the latter. The report indicated the main results of the holding's activities in the past 2017 year. Key financial indicators, successes and achievements were indicated. Among other things, the press release touched upon the development, testing and adoption of completely new models of military equipment.

Reportedly, in 2017, state tests of the latest Bagulnik anti-aircraft missile system were completed. Tests are recognized as successful, which opens the way for the complex troops. The next event in the “biography” of the promising air defense system, as the press service of Rostec writes, is now being adopted.

Unfortunately, reports on the completion of state tests were not accompanied by any new technical details. but news about passing checks are interesting in and of themselves. In addition, certain information about “Ledum” appeared before, and therefore new messages complement the emerging picture.

Also 30 March, there were news about the progress of another project being developed in order to increase the potential of military air defense. This is an anti-aircraft artillery complex ZAK-57 "Derivation-Air Defense", created in the Central Research Institute "Burevestnik" (part of the research and production corporation "Uralvagonzavod"). Georgy Zakamennykh, General Director of the Institute, spoke about the progress of work, recent successes and the expectations of the authors of the project.

According to the director general of the Petrel Research Institute, the first prototype of the newest anti-aircraft complex has been built so far. Now he is at the stage of preliminary tests. Clarifies that the main weapons A promising combat vehicle is the 57-mm automatic cannon. Such weapons will give it certain advantages and will allow to solve a wide range of combat missions. First of all, ZAK-57 is designed to attack aerial targets, but its effective use on ground targets is not precluded.

This time, the official representative of the developer organization also did not disclose the technical details of the promising project. However, some information about domestic developments in the field of artillery caliber 57 mm was repeatedly announced in the recent past, and now some assumptions or conclusions can be made.

"Bagulnik" is ready for adoption

According to known data, in the composition of the holding company “High-precision complexes”, the design of the “Bagulnik” project is being carried out by the Design Bureau of Exact Machine-Building named after A.E. Nudelman. This company has extensive experience in the development of anti-aircraft missile systems, and therefore he was entrusted with the creation of a new system. The goal of the project is to create an air defense missile system similar to some existing combat vehicles, but having noticeable advantages over them. First of all, it was necessary to get a gain in range and reach in height.

In different sources, it was previously indicated that the Bagulnik air defense missile system was a deeply modernized version of the Strela-10М3 complex. The task of improving the basic characteristics will be solved with the help of a number of new devices and instruments. The complex must use the new shooting module with the designation 9П337. The name “Ledum” was originally related to it. A new guided missile 9М340 was also developed. The new equipment was designed to increase the area of ​​responsibility of the air defense system, as well as to improve the main technical characteristics.

It is known that the Bagulnik complex uses only optical-electronic systems for monitoring the air situation, searching for and tracking targets; radar in the project is not provided. The shooting module is equipped with a "classic" set in the form of a video camera, a thermal imager and a laser rangefinder. With the help of such equipment, the air defense system will be able to find targets and prepare for the launch of rockets. The maximum target detection range depends on a number of factors and can reach 25-30 km - significantly more than the missile launch range.

9М340 guided missiles are based on some already proven ideas and solutions, but they have certain advantages over older types of weapons. The missile is guided by a laser beam received by devices in its tail section. According to various sources, the missiles of the new model will be able to hit air targets at ranges up to 10 km and altitudes up to 5 km. The maximum speed of the target is at the level of 900 km / h, which allows the “Bagulnik” to deal with aircraft of different classes.

The first information about the work with the code "Bagulnik" appeared in the second half of the last decade. Subsequently, a project with this name was mentioned several times in different contexts, and not so long ago it became known about the tests of a prototype. At the same time, from a certain time, the name “Ledum” was attributed only to the firing module, while the whole complex was generally called “Pine”.

The first experimental "Pine" with the module "Bagulnik" was built and presented to a narrow circle of specialists back in 2013 year. A year later, preliminary tests took place. Subsequent inspections and refinement took a few more years. In the middle of last year, the complex was released for state trials. Then it was claimed that the last stage of inspections will end in the 2018 year. According to the latest official reports, state tests were carried out back in 2017. Thanks to this, now the industry and the Ministry of Defense can decide on the adoption of equipment for armament, the deployment of mass production and the beginning of deliveries to the troops.

"Derivation-Air Defense" entered the landfill

It should be noted that information on the existence of a prototype of the anti-aircraft artillery complex "Derivation-Air Defense" is not new. Back in January, the Petrel Research Institute for the first time showed such a machine, which at that time was located in one of the company's workshops. After that, it was worth waiting for news about the start of tests. As the head of the Institute pointed out a few days ago, now an experienced self-propelled gun is on preliminary tests.

The project “Derivation-Air Defense” is one of the representatives of a fairly large family of equipment currently being developed with the aim of significantly increasing the firepower of the ground forces. The essence of this family lies in the use of the combat module, equipped with an automatic gun caliber 57 mm. Surpassing the standard for the current combat vehicles small-caliber guns on the main indicators, such a gun is able to give its carrier a unique combat capabilities. At the same time, the module with the 57-mm submachine gun can be used for solving various tasks: it has already been mounted on an infantry fighting vehicle, armored personnel carrier, etc.

Last summer, during the Army-2017 military-technical forum, the Main Rocket and Artillery Directorate and the Burevestnik Central Research Institute announced a new project called Derivation-Air Defense, called 2-38. A little later, another designation became known - ZAK-57. This project involves the use of 57-mm guns as a means of air defense. At the same time, from the point of view of the main features of the new combat vehicle, it differs insignificantly from other equipment of a similar appearance.

The 2C38 project provides for the use of the BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicle chassis, on which the modified AU-220М “Baikal” combat module with an automatic 57 caliber mm gun is mounted. The module should receive optical-electronic means and a fire control system optimized for solving air defense tasks. Detection and tracking of targets is proposed to be carried out using an optical-electronic system with day and night channels, as well as with a laser rangefinder.

Earlier it was claimed that the applied optics would allow finding full-size airplanes and helicopters at distances of at least 6-6,5 km and immediately open fire on them. For small unmanned aerial vehicles, the maximum detection range is limited to 500-700 m. The effective range of the fire on the aerial target was determined in 6 km, height - to 4,5 km. The maximum target speed is 500 m / s. If necessary, “Derivation-Air Defense” will be able to fire not only on aircraft or helicopters, but also on ground-based equipment or stationary objects. As the authors of recent projects have repeatedly emphasized, the 57-mm gun ensures the defeat of any modern light and medium armored vehicles.

In late January, it became clear that the Petrel Research Center, in cooperation with other organizations of the domestic defense industry, completed the construction of the 2C38 Derivation-Air Defense experimental vehicle and the 9Т260 transport and charging system designed for its maintenance. Thus, the beginning of the test was only a matter of time. According to recent official statements, preliminary tests have already begun. At the same time, the deadlines for completing ongoing inspections or the entire complex of tests, including state tests, have not yet been specified.

Future air defense

Both new models of anti-aircraft systems, which defense industry enterprises told at the end of March, are being developed in the interests of military air defense. At the armament of such units at the present time there are complexes of different classes and types, both quite old and modern. In the foreseeable future, their vehicles will be replenished with completely new samples.

As follows from the previously announced information, the project “Bagulnik” / “Pine” is intended to replace the aging samples of the air defense system on self-propelled chassis. It uses already tested ideas and solutions, but they are implemented using modern component base and relevant technologies. Ultimately, this allows you to improve the basic technical characteristics of the missiles and the combat qualities of the complex as a whole. The gradual replacement of the relatively old systems of the Strela-10 family with the new “Ledum Eggs” will increase the combat potential of the military air defense system in the fight against actual threats.

Currently, there are several anti-aircraft complexes equipped with automatic guns. In this case we are talking about 30-mm anti-aircraft guns. The new project ZAK-57 / 2C38 / "Derivation-Air Defense" provides for the use of more powerful 57-mm guns, due to which it is possible to increase both the reach in range and height, and the impact on the target. Also, to a certain extent, the "associated" potential of self-propelled guns in terms of combat ground equipment. The new machine "Derivation-Air Defense" has not yet passed all the necessary tests, and therefore its adoption - if the army makes such a decision - should be expected in the distant future. At the same time, one should expect a noticeable increase in the combat capability of the military air defense.

In recent years, the Russian Ministry of Defense has paid special attention to the creation of new air defense systems of all the necessary classes. The newest projects “Bagulnik” and “Derivation-Air Defense” are created in full accordance with such plans and are designed to ensure the safety of troops on the march and in positions in the medium and long term. As it became known a few days ago, one of the new projects in the near future will have to give the desired results. The second is also close to the expected final. At the same time, it is already possible to assert that in the future the air defense of the ground forces will definitely not be left without a new technology, which has significant advantages over existing samples.

        In order to say so, one must have at least the test results on hand, and since they are not and are not expected, then there is nothing to be said about. Although I believe that a spark of 57 mm + missiles will appear soon, but most likely not with us.

              As an option, take the Terminator chassis and do it in two versions with the AU-220M: support for tanks and infantry, and air defense. Accordingly, with the PTRK and with the Zur and the "radar". The chassis will withstand unification, but mobility is lower than that of the lungs (MTLB, etc.)

        If they cannot unite in one machine, they will be able to work together as part of the batteries and military air defense divisions.

At the end of the 20 century, this topic: "anti-aircraft helicopter" was really seriously discussed by the military, both in NATO and in the USSR ... In Italy, they even lured the experimental 76-mm ZSU "OTOMATIC .....", and in the USSR, articles appeared in military magazines calling not to remove the ZSU-57-2 in the troops and even to "return, hundredths" It is possible that at that time it made sense. But you can’t enter the same water twice! At that time, 57-mm and 76-mm anti-aircraft guns could fight with helicopters on an equal footing (somewhere around 6 km ...). Currently, the "range" of helicopter ATGMs is growing and has a further upward trend! I agree that the 57-mm “Derivation” is useful for protection against helicopters, as well as for the destruction of single (small groups) of drones ... but this is like a “bonus” (as you noticed)) ... The main use of the installation will be against ground targets. (I think so! As Mimino said ....)

            In fact, this is a promising model of weapons.

            They just can’t decide in any way, or the expensive long-range and more versatile 76 mm DRACO with a maximum range of 6000 meters

            or a much cheaper 20-mm PORCUPINE, which will perform the task of exclusively combating means of destruction (including those controlled by aircraft), covering, as they say, a 400x400-meter section with each installation.

    Apparently this derivation is destined for the place of a combat support vehicle for a tank support combat vehicle. Crawling behind something heavier and watering the buildings around from his 57-mm gun for the slaughter of the Fausters. Because there is no air defense from it, this is already clear.

        Well, in Afghanistan, the Basmachi also landed a lot of things from the DShK, but we won’t now base the prospective air defense on the basis of pack calculations for the DShK with donkeys.
        From my point of view, there is another cut. The nomenclature of armaments is being produced. Despite the fact that much could be done on the basis of the same Tunguska. I still understand the shell, and then where else? What will be the military air defense based on all this variegation? An outdated generation that has not yet left - Shilka and Arrow-10. The present generation is Tunguska and the update based on it in the form of a Shell. And now, Ledum and Derivation. Add to this something else there that is not unique for the Airborne Forces (I don’t remember the name). And in the same niche, in fact, Thor and the obsolete Wasp hang out now.
        I understand that we have a rich country, but not as much. In my understanding, all the new items had to be introduced through the modernization of Tunguska. Let it not be "having no analogues in the world", without a unique super 57-mm gun. Figs with him. But let there be standardization and unification. One complex for the entire army. Well, let the airborne forces have something of their own, they have specifics.
        And to do a separate complex around the 57-mm gun is too much for me. We are not basmachi. I doubt that a normal opponent will let her shoot at an aerial target in reality. And against a weak adversary, it is all the more unnecessary.
        If you don’t live, you don’t have to use 57-mm - put them on all BMPs, as a full-time + detachable radar and train the gunner to chop in helicopters. And the exchange of information in a single network with air defense do. At BPM, at least it will be honestly stated that 99% of the firing will be conducted on the ground, as the Derivation will actually do.

          This car makes sense, just because of unification - the transition to a promising 57mm caliber. The air defense function is more likely applied - the main objectives will most likely be UAVs and ground targets, rather than helicopters, simply because the ATGM range is now far beyond five kilometers. Dragging expensive, vulnerable Tungusks to the cutting edge, if a much cheaper alternative can be used - why?

    Again, forging a "wunderwaffe"? instead of what is already available to produce and bring to mind? Nude ...
    It was previously claimed that the optics used would allow finding full-size aircraft and helicopters at ranges of at least 6-6,5 km and immediately open fire on them. For small unmanned aerial vehicles, the maximum detection range is limited to 500-700 m.
    And I’m embarrassed to ask: "And this is in which sector of the review?" And how smartly will the crew search for targets? and what will happen if the target appears not from the front, but from the rear (nevertheless, la is a rather nimble contraption)?

      And do not be shy, but tell me with concrete confidence, like the previous speaker. For the previous version of the EIA, a sector of the order of 180 degrees was indicated, as in this case, n / a. The reaction time is a few seconds. And in order to appear from the rear, the targets must fly somewhere else where their air defense systems should be. Perhaps you have heard that not a single air defense system is supposed to be used in splendid isolation. Even for Osa and Torah, which are officially called Autonomous and can work in the 360-degree sector, the main work is to work together with receiving the TS from the senior boss. But Ledum is just positioned as a replacement for the S-10, which, by the way, performed well in Iraq

    We must not "forget" that under the name "Pine" (laser beam guidance) "there are 2 missiles: 9М337 and 9М340 ... SAM 9М337 (n.d.-8 km; a.a.-3,5 km) was originally created for the Tunguska air defense missile system .... 9M340 SAM (n.a.-10 km; a.a.-5 km) is one of the latest developments. Recently indicated speed: 900 m / s; but originally called speed: 1200 m / s and called a hypersonic missile ..... Yes

    ZAK - 57 has no prospects. As an air defense system, it’s ineffective, even for helicopters, because of its low ammunition and low rate of fire, for ground targets — it doesn’t take tanks because of the low armor penetration of the BPS, and for light-armored targets, on the contrary, the BPS is too powerful for tank dangerous manpower is useless, due to the flat trajectory of the HE shell due to the high initial speed. The large C-60 gun case was designed to achieve maximum range of anti-aircraft targets in offshore conditions for firing cannons with cooled barrels. The use of this cartridge case in a ground vehicle is a dead end direction, although the 57 mm caliber is good.

    Yes, even the rate of fire, 120 / min, it's nothing at all.

    I think that the 76,2 mm caliber cannot be excluded from the case, if you make the gun automatic, it will be a generally amazing weapon in its power to support motorized rifle units and to combat high-speed targets both in the air and on the ground.
