The troops are waiting for the upgraded air defense system "Shell SM". What are the innovations?

The new upgraded Pantsir SAM will receive a super-powered antenna and a new generation of missiles, Interfax reported, citing an informed source.

Modernization work is underway, all of this will be implemented in the new version of the "Pantsir SM". First of all, we are talking about a super-power antenna for it.

- Said the source agency.

According to him, the new antenna allows you to quickly pinpoint the target, respond faster and work better at full speed.

Work is also being completed on the creation of a new generation of rockets for the Pantyr

- said the source.

Earlier, a source in the military-industrial complex reported that the range of the Pantsir anti-aircraft missile system could be increased to 60 km due to the use of hypersonic missiles. Currently, the range of the complex is about 20 km.

According to the military, the upgraded complex "Pantsir SM" will go to the troops this year.

Earlier, a source in the defense industry complex reported that the range of the Pantsir anti-aircraft missile and cannon system could increase to 60 km through the use of hypersonic missiles.

What kind of fantasies? It is about increasing the range to 40 km and tracking targets to 75 km. Where did 60 km come from? It was reported that the new missiles could be used without major modernization of the complex on the Shells of earlier versions.

[VO3A]

Nexus, and where did 40 km come from, can you explain? I can, and I can even say why I would like 60 km ... the "Shell" is not a super weapon ... and to meet with new enemy planes, their new capabilities and advanced technologies, which
already implemented, it is no longer ready ... although it may be enough of the old ones, but with a new tactic based on network-centric approaches ... We still only have integration, although this is already good! And with network-centric approaches we don’t even "smell" ....

The Russian Aerospace Forces first tested the automated control system (ACS) of air defense systems with elements of artificial intelligence. The ASU-PVO allows combining the S-300 and S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM), the Pantsir anti-aircraft missile-gun systems (SAM) and modern radar systems into a single fist. The complex automatically analyzes the air situation and issues recommendations for the use of weapons. According to experts, this will significantly increase the response rate of air defense units and compounds.

ACS "Baikal-1ME" is intended for automated control of the combat operations of the anti-aircraft missile brigade (anti-aircraft missile regiment), and can also be used to control the connection (grouping) of air defense.
During the modernization of the KSA "Baikal-1E", the hardware of the complex was transferred to a new element base, and the software was transferred to the environment of basic secure information technologies with the expansion of combat capabilities.
Moreover, the development of new software was carried out using a single automated system for archiving a software product and a compilation system for specific software complexes.
ACS "Baikal-1ME" provides the solution to the following tasks:
-coordination of hostilities of subordinate anti-aircraft missile systems and systems, aviation and electronic warfare equipment, taking into account the general air situation, condition and available ammunition;
-reception, processing, display and documentation of information on the status and military operations of subordinate assets;
-receiving, processing, displaying and documenting information about the air, ground, chemical, meteorological conditions from subordinate sources of radar information, automated target designation systems for subordinate anti-aircraft missile systems, superior and neighboring airborne control and radar systems;
- Distribution of aerodynamic and ballistic targets in real time between subordinate anti-aircraft missile systems (air defense systems, air defense systems) and the issuance of target designations for them according to goals, taking into account their type and importance;
-automatic allocation of active assets responsibility sectors at the initial stage of work and changes in their distribution in the process of repulsing an STS strike;
-interaction with command posts of neighboring air defense groups, CP anti-aircraft missile compounds (parts), CP fighter aviation regiments (air bases) and aviation guidance points;
-conducting autonomous and comprehensive (in conjunction with other means of air defense) combat training exercises;
-Interaction with KSA air traffic control.

The Baikal-1ME automated control system provides simultaneous automated control of anti-aircraft missile brigades (regiments), the control gears of which are equipped with the Baikal-1ME, Vector-2VE automated control systems,
What else ....... "jade rod" you need?

[VO3A]

only integration

allows you to combine into a single shock fist

Your complete information and my conclusion completely coincide ... There are no contradictions, and indeed rods do not !!! But network-centric approaches allow you to receive information without contact with the enemy and allow operators to be taken out of a possible blow .... This is the next stage of development and it is difficult to achieve it even with competent combination, although, say, there are some very characteristic features for air defense that mask new network-centric approaches ..... They disguise if they exist, but do not create them .... It may be too streamlined, but this is a separate issue and not within the framework of comments ....

[Nikolaevich I]

Sorry for the bad joke! Sometimes it "brings" ... I do not declare that in Russia with "network-centrism" it is a "complete abdomen", even in one "sphere" (air defense), but ...... is there a "smell"? As for the "network-centric concept" as a whole, no one has a complete picture ... even the "pioneers of buchi" (USA), and therefore there are no ready-made technical solutions in a single organization (system) .. All in stages of "becoming"! The “question” only is that for some this process is going “better”, while for others it is “worse”!, For others, “the horse did not roll”!

[VO3A]

We have the third ..... So I brazenly declare that we do not have a single subsystem into which the signal from the UAV comes directly, in real time to the guidance system ... Target coordinates are sent only to the UAV control panel and that's it .... This is a little exaggerated, but enough for flogging .... Moreover, I argue that the Russian General Staff does not even have the concept of such systems, even the lowest level .... And based on this, we can conclude that the situation with simple weapons, as in 41 .... And the losses will be even greater, and precisely because of the global lag in the Combat Systems based on new information technologies .... And the lag is neither in the technology, nor in the UAV, and the lag in the head "wise" generals, and first of all, claims to the General Staff ...

[Vlad.by]

And it’s not at all a fact that the direct transfer of information from an UAV to an actuator is such a blessing!
Not only does this lead to a multiple complication of communication protocols and a rise in the cost of the entire system many times, but it also drastically reduces the security of the system from external influences. Direct contacts should be possible in principle, but only established by command of the control center. This will be provided
1. "prudent" distribution of communication channels (nevertheless, on each specific UAV or carrier there is only a limited number of receivers and transmitters). Trite, such a network-centric system with restrictions is more reliable and cheaper. Yes, and delays in the transmission of information will only be until the creation of a pair or group of direct transmission.
2. Correct target distribution (with direct contact of any reconnaissance source with any firearm, some targets will be required to be fired repeatedly, and some will not be fired at all)
3. The command post will be aware of the entire informational picture on the battlefield, which can only be achieved with "ideal" network-centrism by enormous software and hardware costs (each communicates with each, but also sends copies and reports to the center)
4. No “left” drone, for example, possessing an access code to the system, but not being “their own”, will not be able to wedge into the system with desa.
In an "ideal" network-centrism, the presence of an access code implies complete trust in the information. In the "center-authorized" network-centrism, all "their" are at odds and controlled. The appearance of a "stranger", even having a data transfer protocol but not existing in the system, will not cause a system crash, since the center additionally checks the reliability of the new source and excludes those that are not in the system.

[VO3A]

It’s probably hard to find rational ideas offhand ... In fact, everything is easier and more practical ... But that's why no one thinks about this, but there’s no hint to make it .. Our military, instead of the information component, practices automation of troop control and also unsuccessfully ... Such mediocre systems adopted for service as ESU TK "Sozvezdie-M" and "Andromeda" are an example ...

My experience is of course ancient, but as I understand it, it is not possible to protect an anti-aircraft gun from everything and everything. A reasonable compromise, in the end, anti-aircraft guns do not send an enemy defense breakthrough ... perhaps something like a barrel shilka!

The operation time of the air defense complex is determined by the command. If the complex was turned off during the attack, then that was the order. Turning on the complex without an order is the same violation as turning it off without an order.
In addition, not a single air defense system can operate continuously. In a good way, they should generally be included only for the duration of the combat work. And other means should determine this time.
So the calculation is certainly not to blame for anything.

If air defense, explain why the car was in the "bare field" like a scarecrow? Why no disguise? Why is not hidden? Why didn’t they use simulators? Or does it not practice air defense?

1. I’m not a Pvoshnik, but any common arms man knows these things.
2. The reasons why the car was in such a situation may be many. Could get out of the position to meet with the refueling tanker and / or TZM. Could wait in this place the rest of the machine to form a column. Could wait for the conductor to move to another position ...
3. In combat conditions it is impossible to constantly be ready for absolutely everything. No one will dig equipment shelters at every halt. Equipment must be serviced. People need to rest. People sometimes make mistakes, technology breaks down ... Anything can happen.
4. What happened to the Shell is an ONE case. In a particular place at a given time, one of the elements of an air defense system was vulnerable to a completely atypical threat. With the same success, a howitzer shell could fly into it.
5. Accordingly, it is not necessary to make a tragedy of universal scale out of an isolated case. This sometimes happens. And this does not happen. For example, in the book Tanker in a Foreign Car, a case of the downing of a German attack aircraft from a Sherman tank gun is described. As far as I know, the case is unique. On this basis, to draw some conclusions regarding the vulnerability of aircraft to tanks, which is typical, no one tried.

In fact, the Pantsir air defense system turned into a local missile defense system ...

An important step in this direction has already been taken:" light "zuras have been developed," accented "against light drones, nurses and" medium-sized "guided missiles such as RVZ, RZZ .... now it would be faster to establish the production of such zuras! Against "large" missiles RVZ and RZZ go into battle exist 57EX6 ... The announced modernization of radar equipment is very useful. This will again strengthen the anti-missile properties of the Shell come in handy how and why ... then it’s for! And if the experts say it’s reasoned that the 40E60 missiles are enough, then ......... "why pay twice?" If the Pantsir air defense missile system will be " imprisoned "under a local, object-based missile defense, then the Tor-M air defense system will take over ii short-range air defense missile systems, and "Beech" -means .... "accented" a defense!

[Yarhann]

the increase in radar capabilities is just the same for the search and detection of aircraft, because it is the main danger to the Carapace. The aircraft can detect the complex without entering the zone of its defeat and launch a missile of the Maverick type - as a result, the complex will be destroyed. And a distance of about 40-50 km on which the complex will be able to work on aircraft will protect it from most threats from the air.
With a more powerful radar, the complex will be in great demand on the foreign arms market - because building an echeloned air defense system is expensive, but this is an economical option. Although the c300 he as a means of early detection and destruction of aircraft, he still will not replace.

[Nikolaevich I]

And the distance of the order 40-50km on which the complex will be able to work on aircraft will protect it from most air threats

But do not you confuse large with sweet? Moreover, you, as it were, contradict yourself. "An aircraft can detect an air defense system and launch a missile from 20 km ... We need a missile for an air defense system with a range of 40-60 km!" Well, sho? Then this damned aircraft will detect and produce missile launch from a distance of 50-70 km! But if the anti-aircraft missile system will be super focused on the interception and destruction of aircraft missiles, then he nevermind will be: from what distance missiles are launched! And zuras with a range and 20 km will be enough! Understand, finally! No matter how far, direction missiles are launched, all of them must arrive at point A (target being hit ...)!

[Yarhann]

Do you think that the air defense system is capable of guaranteed destroying missiles like the AGM-88 HARM or our analogue type h25mp, or the same missiles of the hermes complex or maverick. these goals are small. very fast and fly along a random trajectory due to the fact that they have on board the GOS.
and from 50-70 km the aircraft itself will not detect anything, no matter how much the rocket will be - the most advanced western radar installed on the raptor of the west tank can see from 50 km and this is not in the mapping mode but in the narrow beam of the AFAR, while it unmasks itself and air defense will be shot down - exchanging a tank for an airplane is a little expensive. Therefore, when searching for a ground, the optoelectronic onboard system is more effective - and its range is limited to just 50 km - it’s clear that from 50 km it will not see the tank but from a smaller distance the tank will be detected while the aircraft will fly in passive mode without emitting anything - sent a missile such as maverick and TP analogues with a television or other passive seeker is launched.
It’s just that you need to understand the main thing that an airplane is not just an armament carrier, it is an armament complex capable of independently conducting reconnaissance measures, selecting targets and defeating them - that’s why it is necessary to destroy an airplane and not what it launches - in any war, the cost of weapons is always the main thing - and when we are shooting down a relatively inexpensive rocket of the Shell complex of the Kyrgyz Republic such as Tomahawk and etc. - this is an economic benefit. And when we shoot down a target commensurate in value with the same missile - this is already an economic loss. Why doesn’t they create a missile defense system from a RS such as the Grad complex - yes because it is economically unprofitable - it is necessary to detect and destroy the carrier, that is, BM Grad.
Anti-aircraft missiles are advantageous only if they protect the aircraft and other equipment, an expensive type of equipment, which is precisely why the Americans are developing now very short-range super-maneuverable missiles to protect their AWACS and anti-aircraft missiles from long-range air defense systems.

[Nikolaevich I]

It seems that you inattentively read my commentary, where I spoke about the "specialized" (!) Air defense systems (anti-ballistic and anti-aircraft ...), about the "symbiosis" of both in a multi-level air defense organization ...
If the Pantsir air defense missile system will be imprisoned for a local, object-based missile defense, the Tor-M air defense system (accented for air defense!) Will take on the functions of short-range air defense systems, and the Buk air defense system (accented for air defense!) -mean ....!

[Yarhann]

Tor and Buk are the air defense systems of the ground forces - these troops made up the missile defense for the complex - the main task is to combat aircraft - because for technology the main enemy is aviation and helicopters with the WTO. The carapace is a near-air defense complex of the near zone, the customer, as I understand it, is a VKS - the task is object defense like that of the same s300-s400 complex.
By the way, that’s why the c300-s400 and the carapace on wheels are unlike army defense systems that are all tracked.
But do not forget the main thing that no matter how cool the shell complex is, it is meat without the possibility of destroying the WTO carrier - that is, planes and helicopters in the far zone, which is why object defense is made up of complexes with 300-400 and shell. But the increase in the range of detection of the shell and the flight range of the ZR - a little bit will make the complex self-sufficient - it will be able to independently fight with carriers of the WTO. how, for me, an increase in the range of the shell’s work was done just to improve its ability to work in an autonomous version without building an echeloned air defense (s300 + shell), as you may have noticed, it’s relevant in local sluggish conflicts - so to speak, cheap and cheerful compared to long-range complexes like s300-s400

and how to destroy small targets like UAV-kamikaze and other UAVs - there is no more effective means than a gun - although those guns that are on the shell are not particularly effective. We need a single-barrel 50-60mm caliber gun for firing shells with remote detonation - this is by far the most cheap and effective means of destroying UAVs, apart from laser weapons.
Do not forget that the missiles in the complex are not very cheap and destroying their cheap targets can be a swarm of them infinitely expensive. A gun is needed in modern realities when very small UAVs are often used.

I don’t propose to completely “lime” the air defense system’s guns! Some kind of percentage can be left .. but you shouldn’t leave them on the air defense systems "sharpened" for missile defense! You are right in one thing: the guns are only suitable for shooting down " low-speed "low-altitude drones, and even programmable fuses are desirable ... The presence, along with the 57E6 zuras, promised hypersonic zuras, of cheap small-sized (72-80 mm .... and even 57-mm ...) missiles (" anti-aircraft nails ") will not sadden too much about the guns ...

[Yarhann]

programmable fuses are remote-detonated shells, although I heard that we made a correctable munition for the same 57mm caliber - for the very purpose that I said - the destruction of reconnaissance UAVs and other small-sized airborne targets. This is a derivation-air defense machine. Perhaps distributing anti-aircraft artillery and missiles into different vehicles will be the most optimal option - after all, the task of an anti-aircraft automatic gun is not only protection against an air threat - it is protecting the system from the ground (infantry, light armored vehicles, etc.).
And rockets like it or not, it’s still worth the money, even small ones and small missiles are actually better to replace with adjustable shells or with remote detonation.

Not better ! Projectiles with "remote detonation" are inferior to missiles in the probability of hitting the target with the first shot (especially maneuvering ...) An adjusted projectile tends to cost more than missiles ... the "smaller", the more expensive .. and with the characteristics "not super"!

[Yarhann]

The corrected projectile will be several times cheaper than the smallest missile; and the control equipment there will be identical to what is on board the machine, what is on the PC or the projectile. Well, the velocity of the projectile is likely to be twice as high - that is, the probability of defeat is higher.
Well, a remote fuse projectile is an ideal tool for destroying UAVs and other small-sized targets - even though there are no maneuvering ones, but the capabilities for destroying targets are usually described in the technical specifications and the same derivation has targets up to 500ms - and the airborne maneuvers and their forecast should cope the calculator - however, as with SAM. That's just the rocket is several times more expensive and the probability of interception is not much higher (if at all higher). And no one will shoot missiles at small UAVs.

I doubt it! And there are reasons for this ...

in TTX and the same derivation

You overestimate Derivation, as well as many others .... while it is not worth it ...

[Yarhann]

I do not overestimate - derivation is a modern technique that is developed for the same purposes in the advanced armies of the world. Namely, a large-caliber automatic cannon with a high initial velocity of the projectile and remote detonation is the task of such a system, not only air defense but also the fight against ballistic targets such as mines, RSs and bombs. Now in the world, many WTOs are being used remotely controlled - like the same Kyrgyz Republic (UAV-kamikaze) that destroyed the Shell in Syria. It is such a weapon that will be used everywhere in the coming decades - this is facilitated by the miniaturization of the electronic base and the accessibility of technology. Therefore, it was Automatic guns that were and will be the main means of combating UAVs, planning bombs of the Kyrgyz Republic, etc. and so on. The cost of guaranteed delivery of ammunition is now greatly reduced - and not just to the coordinate (like a salvo from self-propelled guns) and at the same time conducting reconnaissance activities - kamikaze drones.
And so far, so far, on ships to protect against an air raid, automatic guns and main-caliber guns with remote detonation are used as the last barrier - if we are talking about protecting a specific object.

They made nonsense, and called it the same - "Deflocation." The gun is 120 mm, and not automatic, but computerized, where it itself rotates and shoots, according to the program - instant response to targets. No one in such a tank will even know what knocked out. There is no need for a crew there - an automatic brutal robot destroys all life. And our engineers, it seems, removed the 57 mm gun from the ship, and screwed it onto an armored personnel carrier. Fuck geniuses!

[seos]

A source with its hypersonic rockets for the Shell, over to send for cleaning sort ...
One blurted out ... the herd supported ...

[Rock616]

Great news ! It seems to me that it is precisely on them that the main work will fall very soon ...

[kutuz]

You are sure to tell Israel.

We all hear .. Friends of reason.

[kan123]

As, thanks to the Jews, life has shown, the "shells" are vulnerable. The obvious solution is something like active armor, so that they could not be, just destroy it. The first attack is carried out by means of air defense, moreover, according to the American system, there are no planes sparing no pilots there — mass exodus of suicides — this has not changed in the US Air Force since World War II. They will clear all the air defense, and then the bombers will fly in and will come off as if in a shooting gallery.

Already wrote on this occasion. in short - if you want to increase combat effectiveness - put the complex on the present, the right chassis - increase stability and patency, effective work on the enemy on the move, on the march.
