Russian corvettes will receive complexes with two UAVs

29
Russian patrol ships of project 22160 will be equipped with drones to search for submarines, inspect ships and the coastline, as well as to provide target designation, they report News.



In the future, UAVs can be used to solve percussion problems.

According to the Defense Ministry, the modular drone complex is currently being prepared for testing. All equipment, including the operator’s workplace, fits in one or two standard containers that can be installed on the corvette deck.

“The complex includes two unmanned helicopters BPV-500, built according to a coaxial scheme. The maximum take-off weight of this UAV is 500 kg, the length of the hull is slightly less than 5 m, and the payload reaches 150 kg. The device can be in the air for up to five and a half hours and act at a distance of up to 320 km from the carrier, ”the newspaper writes with reference to the military department.

The coaxial scheme provides the drone with high precision hovering and making them less sensitive to wind gusts.

It is specified that the optical-electronic system and the on-board radar are used to collect information. Real-time data is transmitted to the ship. The UAV can solve problems both autonomously (flying along a given route) and under the control of the operator.

According to an expert in the field of unmanned aircraft Denis Fedutinov, in reconnaissance, drones are able to adequately replace conventional helicopters on small ships.

The use of such systems on patrol ships of the 22160 project is due to the need for effective information gathering without risk for the crew. The use of unmanned vehicles will significantly expand the observed horizon. One ship will be able to control a much larger area,
said the expert.

He also noted that the military may consider the use of other UAVs - "promising projects of close dimension can offer" Russian Helicopters and NGOs "aviation system "".

      Well he only getting ready for testing. The question is how they will pass, so as not to delay the acceptance.

        The B-30 depth bomb weighing just over 20 kg carries a 13-pound explosive charge.
        BPS bomb with a total weight of 138 kg carries 96 kg of explosive.

          I know, not too lazy and rummaged in the internet. But compared with the same Ka-27 and its 5000 kg payload, BPV-500 and its 150 kg is very small, IMHO.

              Dima hi I agree: on the lack of fish and the pan is a nightingale. In short: this UAV will be run-in in the fleet - it will be possible to swing a little harder.

      And it’s much better to put reconnaissance and target designation functions for RCC on the same 22350s. And the range of use will increase and since the drone is no risk to the life of the pilots.

      M-d-ah! The history of military equipment has made another round ...!
      There was already such a “military-historical” period, when the fleets were armed with radio-controlled unmanned anti-submarine helicopters

      The first mass-produced unmanned helicopter was the American anti-submarine "drone" QH-50 DASH of the Girodayn company, which was a carrier of torpedo weapons and was in service with the American fleet from 1962 to 1970.
      In the end, drones were removed from the Navy at the end of the 20 century ... as a result of the identified shortcomings, both objective (for that period ...) and subjective (and, making up a significant part of the total ...)

        The development of remote vision systems and communication channels did not allow normal drones to do so 10 years ago.

      The magnetometer may well be in the beam: it is probably composite.

    So that's great. With a creak, with difficulty, but unmanned aerial vehicles of Russia are being developed.

    That is, we take essentially any ship where a standard container will fit on the deck and it turns
    to the carrier of intelligence and target designation. Modularity, as it is.

    Here is the answer to the skeptics of project 22160. There were doubts about how it would perform anti-submarine functions, even taking into account its modularity, if it could fit only one helicopter that carries either a search helicopter with buoys, or an attack one: hinterlands and AT-1. They said that then two patrolmen would have to be sent, and this was not practical ... Here is the answer: “The complex includes two BPV-500 unmanned helicopters .." One turns out to be search, the second attack. In theory, this is true, as they say, it was smooth on paper (i.e. chatting), but they forgot about the ravines (well, I don’t know about the enemies of the people?). Let's see, it becomes interesting.
