No money, “Armat” will not?

It is no longer a very good tradition - on the basis of the words of high-ranking officials to sentence our next “unparalleled in the world” invention to postponement.

Just recently, we talked about the complete collapse of the PAK DA project, then about the Su-57, which, if it is in the army, in unit quantities and it is not clear in general for what. Training is understandable, but the point is in training if the plane does not go to the troops?

The reason is the same: no money. It’s right where they come from, if they need to save the Deripaska and other close oligarchs from poverty and build mausoleums across the country for the first president. That is Deripaska’s well-being - this is a topic for spending. And the Moscow Yeltsin Center. A Tanks...

Former Deputy Shoigu, and now Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov, once again gave reason for foreign media to gloat over the Russians. On Monday, dropping a mean male tear, Mr. Borisov said that the army would be glad to buy thousands of “Almaty”, but the trouble is a terrifying price. Our budget cannot overpower it. No

Of course, Borisov could not help but say that the T-72 in service is much more attractive to the military both technically and financially. Indeed, why do we need Armata, why do we need Vladimir (T-90MS), if there is a very good tank, T-72. And his T-72B3 modification is generally fire, not like these "Abrams" and "Leopards"!

And the tank is not old! So what is 44 of the year? For the tank - nothing! This is not “Priora”, it will not rot. And the German “Leopard” (first) will also be older. And anyway, who said that tomorrow is war? Especially if the war, the studied T-72 will be the way.

And "Armata" look good on the parade. Here are a dozen of them - and pretty. Expensive.

It makes sense to cite the words of another expert, Alexei Leonkov from the magazine Arsenal of the Fatherland.

This is normal today. If there is an awkward question, then (as in the case of the pension "reform") experts immediately appear, who intelligently and reasonably prove that everything is right and correct.

So Mr. Leonkov announces that, in fact, "Armata" - a prototype of weapons. With the letter "O". Who and where could see this type is not clear, but believe it. The expert is the same.

And when such samples are created, this implies that they are made not of technical interest, but under the solution of some specific problems.

Here is how! It’s great, but I’ve already begun to think that we have people in all design bureaus and people are just thinking to come up with one. And let's tower a desert gash. And we will distribute to all experts.

According to Leonkov, there is no point in creating expensive equipment, if it is not expected to have combat missions that only these samples can do.

Delicious, right? It immediately reminds 1941 of the year when 57-mm anti-tank guns stopped producing, because for them there were no goals. And then the comrades in Stalin's office stood, soiled their parade pants and bleated, when it turned out that there was nothing to beat the Tigers.

Mr. expert clearly describes that it is these tasks that nothing, except "Almaty", will not perform, and determine the amount of the ordered equipment. And if there are no such tasks, then “Armat” is not needed! Here is the beauty, right?

I quote: “In the case of samples that are far ahead of existing types of weapons, the question always arises: why do we need so many of these tanks, if the existing models are more than suitable for all conceivable combat missions?”

The counter question: why did the Ministry of Defense then solemnly roar, drowning the march “Thunder of victory, resound!” About a thousand “Armat” that will be in our army? And why now even a whisper intelligible on this subject is not heard?

Oh yes, there is no money ... Sorry, I forgot. But one more, literally, the last quote from an “expert”.

"Armata" is just such a technological breakthrough, which puts it a generation above all existing not only in Russia, but also in the world of samples of tank technology. Therefore, it simply does not have any worthy competitors on the battlefield - all the Abrams and Leopards can serve the latest Russian tank as “sparring opponents”.

Right! That is why we will not release it! It is dishonest in relation to potential (and not) opponents! Well, how is it that our tankers will be on the “not having ...” tank against the ancient “Leopards”? Well, gentlemen, not 1945 year, it is necessary to understand.

We must (hypothetically) ruin our crews in T-72. It will be knightly. And the fact that there will die someone ... Come on, right, gentlemen? Still giving birth ... Perhaps.

Well, to which Mr. Expert came to the end, this is what we wrote about two years ago, when fanfares roared, and hurray-idiots hurt their foreheads in hysterics on all resources, that “Armatavsehporvet!”

We then talked about the fact that everything is premature. And joyful shouts, and triumphant reports. That for a tank of a new generation there is nothing: no training base, no repair, no crews. We were then well-voiced by our patriots criticized. Okay.

Two years have passed.

And now the same words are quietly whispering "experts" hired by the gentlemen rulers. But at least they honestly whisper that yes, there is no base, there is nothing, but the main thing is that there is no money.

And there is no money - nothing.

But not everything is so sad. Still sadder. Apparently, in the clash of financiers and the military came a certain parity. And the financiers said like, “Damn you, there will be a new toy for you. But not for that kind of money. ”

“The words of the Deputy Prime Minister about“ Armata ”do not mean that a cross is placed on it. In the foreseeable future, a certain batch of these machines will go into pilot-military operation in the Russian army, during which it will be possible to figure out what caused this high cost: plant costs, cost of components, or other factors. ”

That is, this unfortunate trial batch will be made now, however, there are persistent rumors that the number of tanks in it has been corrected again.

It is worth recalling that the need for “Armata” was first evaluated in 2 300 units. Then the Ministry of Defense announced the construction of 1 000 machines "for the first time." Next went "blah blah blah", and the number was reduced to a trial batch in 100 machines.

Now they say that 20 is enough for full testing. We arrived.

But the most interesting thing is these tests. Ask, and what to test, state tests passed, the tank seems to have been adopted?

Yeah, accepted. It also seems to be.

New “tests” of “Almaty” are needed in order for specialists to understand which of the tank’s innovations are really necessary and which ones can be abandoned, thereby lowering the price for it.

Degrease, so to speak.

Tried to find the numbers, but alas. All behind the veil of secrecy.

“Our tanks have never been more expensive than the Abrams, and if the Armata is priced somewhere like the T-90, without reducing the performance characteristics, the issue of its production will not be so acute.”

Kindergarten, younger group. Our tanks were not more expensive than the Abrams. Well, incredibly easy! And these words are already quoted by Mr. Borisov. Vice Premier. Who is trying to explain on the fingers about the cost of the tank.

Okay, the Abrams costs about 6 million dollars. T-90 depending on the letters - 3,5-4 million. “Armat” should be shoved in the middle.

Madhouse? Madhouse.

So you want to say to these "experts", that this, you know, TANK! It has no leather seats or a bar. This is not a jeep for 4-5 million rubles, which you roll, gentlemen. This is a combat vehicle.

And the war machine was invented and constructed by people who have been engaged only in this life. That is, the design of combat vehicles. There can be nothing superfluous.

Tank can not be made of metal from the barrels of oil. The tank can not be left without optics and electronics. We do not understand at all, due to which we can cheapen such a machine so that it becomes cheaper than Abrams, which is going towards its 40 anniversary.

What can be thrown out of the combat vehicle to make it cheaper? What is there unnecessary? And what kind of "experts" will solve this?

And this heresy is broadcast by high-ranking officials of the country ... Apparently, they have uninhabited towers, unlike our armored troops - a common occurrence.

EMNIS, Armata was positioned as a command vehicle mainly ... In general, this is an old cart about the concept of a silver bullet. It’s clear that a better weapon is better, but the principle “better less is better” DOES NOT PLAY in the army! "God is on the side of the BIG battalions!" Mass is needed, 1 super-duper Me-262 or the Royal Tiger does not play against 50 Yaks or 100 thirty-four !!! And there are not enough 50 Me-262s or Tigers to build resources - if they did, then there would be no one to fight with - they themselves would starve to death.
So it goes like this all over the world - tripods are worn off with the F-22 and F-35. but they buy something ancient piston Super Tucano, so that to Fight on them, and not ponte pound.

Under the current government, this will be the fate of all new projects, as money is needed for other "niches", more pleasant and more sawn.
Although the cost of military equipment is indeed overstated, and so it has always been, frankly, I do not understand why such an order was established, but this was also with the Soviets. And with the current ....

[Evgeniy667b]

Very convenient phrase "No money!". Where are they? Resources are being sold, territories, weapons, but all of them are not and are not. This is a lie. There is money, but not where Russian interests demand it. Sechin, Miller, Medvedev, Putin and others like them have it, but it’s their personal, earned by hard work in hazardous production. That is the face of all of them wider and wider, do not enter the screen ...

"... And where are they? ..." Money is needed for more important things - plugging financial holes, subsidizing dubious gas projects for Russia.
1. ".. The Central Bank of the Russian Federation became the owner of over 99,9% of the shares of Otkritie Bank, having bought its additional issue of 456,2 billion rubles, the regulator’s website said. A substantial part of the allocated funds will be used to close the" hole "in the bank’s capital amounting to 189,1 billion rubles. Part of the funds is allocated to provide financial assistance to Rosgosstrakh (42,2 billion rubles) and to non-state pension funds of the group (42,9 billion rubles will be used to cover losses incurred by NPFs as a result of impairment of assets related to with the Otkritie group). In addition, as part of the recapitalization, 182 billion rubles are allocated for the formation of the bank’s new capital ... "
2. "..." ... Yamal LNG (the first private LNG plant in Russia, being built on the basis of the South Tambeyskoye field.) Is far from the only gas mega-project receiving large tax breaks, the benefit of which for the Russian economy not obvious .... Putting the plant into operation is a merit not only of shareholders, but also of Russian taxpayers, who generously subsidized them. The South Tambeyskoye field, which serves as the resource base for Yamal LNG, will be exempted from MET for gas in the first 12 years of production, provided that its total volume for this period does not exceed 250 billion cubic meters. m. Under the same conditions, exemption from property tax and income tax benefits, which will be not 18%, but 13,5%. Until the end of the construction of the plant, shareholders are exempted from VAT when purchasing equipment that has no analogues in Russia, and upon its completion they will be able to use the zero LNG export duty. The project received direct subsidies: in 2015, the government approved the purchase of Yamal LNG bonds for 150 billion rubles. from the National Welfare Fund. At the expense of the state, three-quarters (71 billion of 96 billion rubles) were funded for the construction of the cargo port of Sabetta. ... Strange, it turns out, raw dependence: not the gas industry supports the budget, but rather, taxpayers subsidize gas producers ... "
P.S. I did not find anywhere information: HOW AND WHEN this money allocated by the state will be returned to the state.

And the money will go to huge infrastructure projects: nuclear power plants, hydroelectric power stations, thermal power plants, state district power plants, bridges, railways, automobile and residential infrastructure, all over Russia. A large-scale war, if it will be only nuclear, - at the moment such as in the Donbass - is the maximum, in such a war the T 72B3 will be enough.

[AA17]

Yes Yes. I agree, the money will go. But where? "... And the money will go to huge ..." spectacles for the people. This is more important. "... Expo-2025 and the Summer Universiade-2023 in Yekaterinburg have already been announced, the Winter Universiade-2019 in Krasnoyarsk. ... "

Market? Free competition, huh? From the work of a hundred years ago:
"Private property, based on the work of the small owner, free competition, democracy - all these slogans that the capitalists and the press are deceiving the workers and peasants are far behind. Capitalism has grown into a worldwide system of colonial oppression and financial strangulation by a handful of" advanced "countries of the gigantic most of the world's population. "
or here’s another “The economically basic in this process is the replacement of capitalist free competition by capitalist monopolies. Free competition is the main property of capitalism and commodity production in general; a monopoly is the exact opposite of free competition, but this one before our eyes began to turn into a monopoly, creating large-scale production, replacing the small, replacing the large with the largest, bringing the concentration of production and capital to the point that a monopoly has grown and grows from it. "

I think that if you read at least Adam Smith's work “A Study on the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations,” your point of view about the “market around the globe” will undergo a certain metamorphosis.

I agree - if you take a family, a single-person modification requires more complex and expensive electronics (and we are not able to create it normally). And if you take the troops, the main ones are the just named Mi-24 deer crocodiles and their modification Mi 35. And not a few Ka-52. And their percussion function is often performed by the “eternal” (1965) Mi-8 and Mi-17 - which, in essence, is the same.

[yehat]

it happens that helicopters carry bombs and even such exotic ones as gas barrels
for this, an attack helicopter is not needed - the Mi-8 will do.

[Jerk]

Yeah, that's exactly the same Mi ... Well, there is Ka, and 50 and 52 are. But to say that they became the "main attack helicopter" ... This is overkill. That's the way with Armata. And in general with expensive weapons. The states over there also boasted of being "smart and precise." And how did it end? The fact that it even reached them that to drive expensive penny jeeps with a karamultuk in the back is expensive. And the ancient ammunition rushed, shelling the cities on the squares and instead of the F-35 they buy Super Tucano.
Why did it happen?

But only at the same time they have more than a large fleet of completely modern aviation and ships. And we, not having a normal fleet and tanks, are trying to supply one thing with junk - we added ten to the number and already new equipment that has no analogues

Under the task and, accordingly, the size of the economy. Plus it is paid by the robbed countries of the 3rd world. And now Europe also has to pay. Nevertheless, it is in the states that have lately been crying that the Russians, with their micro-budget, are quite capable of resisting the empire of good.

But only in dry numbers, the Ka-52 becomes the main attack helicopter, in terms of procurement there are more than the Mi-35/28. Yes, and in Syria, it’s from the videoconferencing system that the Ka-52 shines more often from the video.

[yehat]

everything needs a measure.
our 24 thousand tanks in 41 didn’t play anything against about 7 thousand German, because besides mass there are many other factors.
And near Kursk, the number of our aircraft did not prevent the Germans from gaining dominance in the sky, although it was like there were yaks, shops, and experience was gained.
armata - a tank necessary for the army, because we do not have machines that can do something with a frontal attack with small losses. And forever, the T72 is impossible to upgrade.
Now the vast majority of NATO tanks are 20 tons heavier than ours and this affects combat effectiveness, and the poor approach to equipping the tank needs to be changed. We are already used to the fact that our tanks have the most primitive SLAs, the simplest communications, inexpensive sub-caliber shells, etc. This saving has come sideways so many times!
Do you really want to step on the rake again?

It is also very interesting since when they began to measure the combat effectiveness of the tank in tons.
Thank you.

"in tons" - reserves for increasing protection and equipment
NATO lagged behind us in the efficiency of spending this resource,
but dozens of years of modernization and they have been taught something.

as for pine-U - what percentage of our tank fleet is equipped with this OMS?
moreover, even the Chinese LMS is now more sophisticated - with built-in thermal imagers, coordinate coordinates, algorithms for transmitting and receiving target designation, the application of anti-mask and anti-weather filters and other buns, I heard that the Chinese are trying to teach their LMS to interact with drones.
The pine tree, which is "U", is today a minimally sufficient system, but far from what we would like to have and it is far from everywhere.
Finally, 5 km detection of the "tank" object limits the range of missiles and a number of other negative features.

there was a whole range of promising developments, one of which was the rail (a program for reducing the overall dimensions of the ammunition as with the Americans).
I am not aware of the details, but a major change was planned in the type of naval and anti-personnel weapons, target designation systems (approximately like drones now), I saw with my own eyes the development of a new generation of ballistic computers, as well as closed work on a rocket at the physics department - a mix of spike and cluster ammunition (this is about your link to the intersection).

Well, sub-calibers - longer sub-calibers do not fit into AZs, which sharply limit the effectiveness of our tanks (because only lengthening can solve the problem of breaking through the opponent’s armor).

Armata was positioned as a command vehicle mainly

How much can you duplicate this stupidity ?!
The commander’s tank cannot be different from the main ones; otherwise, it is the number one target, and therefore a corpse.
Even during the war in Spain, this became known to everyone, apparently except for those who write such nonsense. In Spain, for those who do not know, the commander BT and T-26 were knocked out the only distinguishing feature of which were the handrail antennas. The primary knockout of commander tanks leads to disorganization of troops.
If you read the article, you should have noticed the number 2300, it was exactly the number of tanks that were planned to be purchased, so there was no talk of any command tank, it was supposed to be the main tank of the Russian army. And later, when the figure decreased, it was always said that. that it’s temporary, and then purchases will continue.
Who just launched this fake that Armata will be a command vehicle.

[yehat]

ours began in July 1941 to successfully knock out the Pz III commander tanks and officers leaning out of their hatches, recognizing them by an additional antenna. The Germans lost a serious amount of experienced commanders in 1 month.

[Vadim237]

And ours lost, in a month, 11000 tanks.

[yehat]

almost 18000 were lost by mid-July.
moreover, 3/4 of them remained on roads or in garages or at railway stations or at destroyed crossings - abandoned.
It also turned out to be hit quite a bit - but only about 700-800.

[tornado]

"18 thousand?" The same garbage as millions of prisoners. All these are "paper figures". In real life, there were not 000 thousand.

[Vadim237]

Unfortunately, this is true, since 30% of Western soldiers simply did not want to fight, for the Soviet power, some simply ran away, and still others, abandoned by the command, fought.

[yehat]

stop repeating nonsense from time to time - I regularly see your posts in this style.
there were neither western nor eastern soldiers, there were no mass "did not want" or abandoned. No need to separate episodes to rule.
As for the deserters - that was. But it was not the soldiers who deserted, but the local recruits who were drafted just a few months or weeks ago, because The Red Army sharply increased 3 times in number, but was not provided with non-commissioned personnel and officers in the right amount - they simply did not have time.

[Vadim237]

It was just that everything was told here - demon of beautiful pictures, that it was and it looks more like the truth, since the mundane, without any stupid urapotriatism

[yehat]

let's give a concrete example better. Kiev boiler. The Germans say-captured more than 600 thousand soldiers of the Red Army. (and in reality there was something about 580 thousand people. More than 20 thousand were taken prisoner several times - and released). So the amount was accumulated. Well, actually - 340 thousand unarmed "assistants" assigned to the army are not soldiers, about 70-80 thousand more (according to various sources) are just met people who are visually fit according to the ideas of the soldiers for army service. And suddenly, the number of captured soldiers shrinks from a staggering half a million to about 80-120 thousand (including many wounded). Which is also a lot, but still 5 times less. I’m demonstrating this to you as real figures and events are interpreted by “honest” historians and sources. And then, on this basis, conclusions are drawn and "processes" are created. There was a lot at the front and a lot of bad, only the scale is greatly misinterpreted.

[yehat]

It was. in the western districts there were almost 16 thousand tanks, plus a bunch of wedges and other armored vehicles on a harp. of which about 1300 are the latest Kv-1 and T34 tanks plus some T28i Kv-2, which were quite modern at that time.

[Black sniper]

We export T-90s to Vietnam, every fourth commander’s, they have a different abbreviation!

[Vadmir]

Mass is needed, 1 super-duper Me-262 or the Royal Tiger does not play against 50 Yaks or 100 thirty-four !!!

It is difficult to argue with this, but now is not the time of the USSR, when we had a huge army and multiple superiority in the number of tanks, on the contrary. we now have, officially voiced, the concept of a compact, professional and well-armed army.
Therefore, either it is necessary to change the concept and increase the size of the army, or to saturate the army with the most modern weapons.
Well, or forget about the status of a great power and keep quiet in a rag, even when what happens happens at our borders.

[NordOst16]

What a great power? Only on paper. It is necessary to invest in the economy, but it is not profitable, where it is better to relax on the Cote d'Azur

[Foxmara]

What economic numbers did you mean? If by GDP, then "the Russian economy (according to 2017) takes the sixth place among the countries of the world in terms of GDP by PPP."
According to other sources, the 11th, after Canada and South Korea.

Well here it is not necessary. Only a person very far from technology believed that right now, immediately in 2015, there would be a contract for 2500 valves. They will be driven in trial operation for another 2-3 years (the lessons from the mass purchase of T-64 with a mass of children's sores have not gone away), and then they will begin to slowly purchase. For that matter, now there is a contract for 100 cars. Let's wait, sir. But the most important thing in the Armata-Kurganets-Boomerang program was still not a tank, but a heavy-medium-wheeled infantry fighting vehicle and self-propelled gun range, and that’s what you need to worry about. True, Borisov’s speech flashed an interesting phrase about “BMP-4,” and this gives considerable hope.

And everything will end as with the Ukrainian Bastions - the Thai armed forces use it, and theirs on Soviet junk. At such a pace in the Chinese or Indian troops, he will appear earlier than in a significant number of our armored

How Ukraine will fail. We are far from the Sumerians. However, Taiwan seems to have abandoned them. At the last competitions in NATO, they could neither go nor shoot. And so it’s all there, armored personnel carriers burst in armored personnel carriers, barrels in tanks are not of a standard (they don’t do specialized plants), mortars kill their calculations.
Our news also floats and rides and flies as expected. And shoots.
Indeed, upgrading the T72 is cheaper, it can be right to rearm quickly, and the war in Syria has shown that even with the right tactics, even the T-54 is fighting quite successfully, and in urban areas they give excellent results.
T-72 is not just a lot, but a lot, let them upgrade and assemble new ones in parallel. The world is turbulent, and the budget is not ovish. However, the USA has been exploiting its abrashes for 40 years, although they have enough money.

I was born and raised in a city built under Stalin in 1950. Under the nuclear industry. The city still stands and works. Universities, plants for rocket science and the atom were built at the same time. During the Khrushchev’s construction projects, I don’t remember, except perhaps the Khrushchev’s, which were supposed to stand before communism ... The Bratsk Hydroelectric Power Station, Kuzbass, Donbass .. Remind me if you know what else happened to him? The groundwork was made exactly a hundred under Stalin.

under Khrushchev, they also built it, but it was just a continuation of the program laid down by the Beria department. I am from such a city.

Why did all this imaginary rearmament of the army, aviation and navy be conceived, for a show, it will not work here and there can be no intermediate options either, each, even the best equipment, has its own aging limit, which no modernization can already change, apparently for the sake of all sorts of Kudrin - Shmudrin and the like, a fat cross was put on the further reform of our armed forces and everything will be reduced only to the modernization of equipment and weapons created back in the USSR, but I will repeat again, any modernization has its limit after whom she becomes just meaningless. To be more concise, the thesis of some of our well-known leaders is now extended to our army, namely: "There is no money, but you stay there."

* even shells for new, worse, armaments - NO.
* He stupidly is not capable of fulfilling the declared tasks.
* But at the same time, two have already been built, the money was cut.
And after that - they begin to call them experienced, or still somehow special operations ships, disguising this as something they themselves can’t understand - they built them and what to do with them, but in fact they stupidly lit up the sucker (government ) on the grandmother, steaming a cat instead of a rabbit.

There will be Armats. The first batch of 200 tanks. So don’t worry.

[yehat]

the problem is not in quantity, but in the fact that the program is not being developed.
Armata is still a very crude platform and in order to bring it to effective use, you need to invest quite a bit of money, but they are not there.
therefore, it doesn’t matter if they put 1, 200 or 1000 tanks into the army — these are exhibition vehicles with limited combat effectiveness.

[Vadim237]

Don’t worry, it’s just military that it’s beneficial to make the T 14 tank robotic.

We have a bunch of low-paid workers who can do everything without any robots, something like the truth, but cheaper.

[Vadim237]

In mechanical engineering, robotics is in demand.

[kuz363]

I read the note. that cadets of some Siberian school found a way to fight Armata with simple RPG-7. They shot at the tank from 2 grenade launchers with an interval of 1-2 seconds. If the first rocket Armata manages to hit. then she needs a few seconds to reload the ammunition for the next shot. Meanwhile, a second rocket flies in with hi. And if you use 3 grenade launchers? So for each lock you can pick up your key

[Cruorvult]

Seriously, you think that cadets at school are allowed to shoot at “Armat”, what kind of nonsense :-D Yes, and “Afganit” does not “recharge” like “Trophy”.

And what's new ... according to this scheme, Ossetians burned Georgian tanks in 2008.

[Alekseev]

Quote: kuz363

I read the note. what

It is not only necessary to read notes.
then you would know that a grenade is fired from a grenade launcher, but a grenade, at relatively short distances and RPG-7 grenades are weakly effective against frontal armor with DZ of modern MBT. It is also well known for those who are interested that in KAZ all ammunition is already loaded, this is not a fusee.
KAZ was created against melee combat vehicles, but mainly against anti-tank missiles.
As for the current cadets, and not only the "Siberian schools", they can not always find an effective way to combat hunger before lunch and sleep after it.
As for the volume and timing of the release of certain weapons, this is a "rating" topic for boltology in the media, but these volumes and terms are, in fact, secret.
Yes, it is possible that there is not enough funding for everything, but there is no need to panic too much. A new generation of BTTs will be made, technical progress cannot be stopped, although in the modern world strategic nuclear forces have taken the place of the old multimillion-strong armies and huge fleets.
And because of the need to support export opportunities, because competitors are not asleep.

[Laughtermaster]

the first rocket Armata will have time to hit ...
it takes a few seconds to reload the ammunition

And how does Armata reload there? Maybe you need to ask Rostik?

[vindigo]

Everything has long been invented against KAZ. RPG-30 double grenade fires. The first one is KAZ. The second pierces DZ and armor.

the backlog of the USSR did not end. the backlog of the USSR is a theoretical science that provides up to 50-70 years of development in some areas. They dug especially deeply in mathematics and applied disciplines.

[Vadim237]

And what did they accumulate in mathematics and applied disciplines - there was not even an MRI in the USSR, they could not do a thermal imager, there were problems with civilian aircraft, as well as with all civilian products. The USSR fell apart and it turned out that Russia had no competitive products except military ones, and what was on the shelves of oblivion, the authors came, dusted off their inventions and left abroad with them. Now everything has begun to be produced, in cooperation with foreign companies, simultaneously creating its own new one.

Well, Lockheed 188, too. Stabilizer in the Yak-42? Read about the disaster MD-8x due to problems with the PB. Well, and so on; the level of problems is average in the world.

[yehat]

the most famous examples are commander watches, cameras
Muscovite 412 was at one time a super popular car and exported in large volumes. But it’s better to look for examples yourself, just compare things of one year, and not the 8th iPhone with a phone in Stalin’s office.
for me, the most striking example is a can opener. In the USSR, I could find an excellent one at the nearest hardware store for 20-30 cents, but now you can find a good fig with a suitcase of money.

About the machines, I am aware - these machines were large, in my opinion milling with a bed of 6 meters or more, and now they are buying bulldozers from us, and Russia sends the machines for export.

[Recoil]

The author, please formulate your thought, suggestion. What are you calling for?

[Kot_Kuzya]

Under Stalin, they spared no money on developing the latest weapons, although the country then had neither gas nor oil. But by the beginning of 1941, Soviet fighters and commanders had the best tanks in the world, the best artillery in the world, comparable to the Germans, British and Americans, small arms and aviation. But in today's Russia there is no money for the release of a miserable thousand modern tanks. Until the Central Bank of the Russian Federation is nationalized, and until it ceases to be a branch of the Fed, there will never be enough money. It is time to seize the Central Bank, and so already imposed sanctions on Crimea, it will not get worse. But when the Government of the Russian Federation controls the issue of the ruble, and not the Chairman of the Central Bank and its Board of Directors, independent of the Government and the President, then there will be enough money for everything.

[igorbrsv]

Under Stalin, too, did not have time to complete the rearmament. Too slow. Reminiscent of modern times. But then it was possible to embark on a war footing, but now not. This is not to blame Stalin, because it was possible to instigate a war

[yehat]

here is no hysterical strain
by the beginning of 41, the best tanks were not ours.
we didn’t have the best artillery either (read, for example, why in the Red Army the whole war did not have self-propelled guns of large caliber, why the 45th in the 41st didn’t "go", etc.) and the best planes were not with us,
but there were many modern and promising developments that provided sane results.

[Avis-bis]

Quote: yehat

in the red army all war there were no large-caliber self-propelled guns

A very bold statement. And funny. What kind of "large-caliber self-propelled guns" did not have the Red Army? If we discard all the “stormtiger” crap, then what was the chance with the Hans that we did not have? 153 mm? 200mm? Or maybe 1200mm?
About planes is also funny. Our aviation, perhaps, was not “the most-most” (for reference, the “most-most” does not exist, there is a “best technique for these conditions”), but it was quite up to date with it. We started the Second World War not only with I-153 / -16.

[Kot_Kuzya]

Weren't the T-34s, T-50s and KVs the best medium, light and heavy tanks? ZIS-3 was not the best division? ZIS-2 was not the best anti-tank gun? Was the M-30 the best divisional howitzer? Wasn't the ML-20 the best corps howitzer gun? Wasn't the 120mm mortar the best? No wonder the Germans completely copied it and began to release it in 1943.

[yehat]

believe less cheers propaganda.
Read more documentation with technical specifications and specific episodes of application, reviews.

[Kot_Kuzya]

That is, SVT was worse than Mauser 98k? PPSh worse than MP-40? Is the T-34 worse than the T-3 and T-4? IS-2 worse than Panther and Tiger? Is IL-2 worse than U-87? Is La-5 worse than FV-190 and Me-109? M-30 worse than 105 and 150 mm howitzers? Did you know that the Germans did not have 120-mm mortars, and they were forced to copy this mortar from the Red Army and begin to produce their 12-mm mortar regiment level, an exact copy of the Soviet 120-mm mortar?

Is this with the ancient, unbearable Maxims and the under-machine guns of DP with disk power? Maybe rifles and PPs were the best in the world at that time, but in terms of machine guns, the Red Army was full of seams, Maxims and DPs were completely inferior to the German MGs.

Quote: yehat

do not interfere with the rifle and mortars with guns and howitzers

In mortar weapons, the Red Army was the leader, as well the ZIS-3 was the best gun of the division level, the ZIS-2 was the best PT gun of its caliber, the M-30 and ML-20 were also recognized as one of the best in their class.

[yehat]

Maxim, although ancient, but during WW2 there was no more effective machine gun - ideal rate of fire + water cooling. When he made a lightweight frame, he became quite normal. The tar man is a good light machine gun. Recently I watched a video of an American gunsmith - from Afghanistan tarry brought. Feedback is sharply positive.
German MG - what is it? their 4 models were massively used
the most common - mg34 and 42. But the Germans did not have a machine gun level DShK. The Red Army also had other machine guns - Simonov, for example. As for the rifles. the three-rulers and the cavalry carbines were somewhat inferior to the German Mauser, but in general they were approximately equal. The Red Army had a mass-produced SVT - this is one of the best semi-automatic rifles in the world at that time. Plus PPSh, a very technologically advanced and efficient PP (much better than mp-40 or mp-38).
This combination of this entire rifleman aroused real envy among the Germans, who very willingly adopted the captured PPSh, SVT, and maxims.
DTs were usually not taken because he did not tactically fit into their squad work.
As for the light machine gun (mg-34 and 42, which is not entirely manual), the Germans actively used the Czech reset.

[Bad thing]

The Red Army also had other machine guns - Simonov, for example

Well, why so? Maybe still Goryunova (SG-43)?
And Maxim, before the beginning of the 90s, stood in the fortified areas in the east, but not because they were very good, but because the cooling system with forced circulation allowed for a long time to keep a high rate of fire.

[yehat]

Isn't that a cool little thing?

[Bad thing]

It was normal for UR, but as an infantry weapon it was heavy, shooting only from a machine gun, loves water, without a second number it shoots well only at the cinema (it is necessary to hold the tarpaulin tape so that there are no distortions) - byak.

[Kirill2017]

And where did the oil and gas come from?
They were with Stalin. But tanks, artillery and aviation, better than the Germans, were back in 32m.
And what is being offered is a military coup.

[alexnmv5]

The appearance of t 1941 on the battlefield in 34 was a complete surprise for the enemy. Why does someone now believe that the Russian Ministry of Defense should report on the exact number of tanks, on the exact location? What did they tell us? The truth? Let me remind you of the famous phrase from a good movie - can you give me the keys to the apartment where the money is? Do not worry, if these tanks are destined to enter the battlefield, they will leave. In the right amount and right place.

[Kot_Kuzya]

In my opinion, there is no need to hide the presence of modern weapons, as otherwise the enemy might think that you are weak and attack you. As the Caucasian proverb says: "Do not tempt your neighbor with your weakness," or as the Romans said: "If you want peace, get ready for war!" For example, the USA and the USSR, for example, when they acquired atomic and nuclear bombs, ICBMs, and other wunderwafes, they immediately announced this to the whole world, thus repelling the desire of the enemies to attack them.
As for this one:

The appearance of t 1941 on the battlefield in 34 was a complete surprise for the enemy.

Well, actually the head of Abwehr Canaris was an English agent, and he specially hid under the cloth reports about the latest tanks, planes and artillery of the USSR, specially created the impression of Hitler that the Red Army was fighting against old things, and could not withstand the Wehrmacht’s blow. It was not without reason that Hitler later said that if he knew that the USSR had so many tanks and so many newest models, then he would never attack the USSR. Therefore, by the way, Canaris was arrested and executed as an English spy. After all, the USSR used HF in the Winter War, and German agents should certainly have known such heavy tanks from the USSR, but such information did not reach Hitler, and this is possible only if the head of Abwehr did not allow such information to Hitler. Therefore, for German soldiers and commanders it was a complete surprise meeting with the Soviet T-34 and KV, with 120-mm mortars and SVT.

[alexnmv5]

So they report that we have no equal in the number of new armored vehicles in the troops. But the exact amount, where, etc. what for? Our partners are literally digging the earth in order to know this for sure, and we ourselves are on the silver platter, as was the case with Gorbachev and Yeltsin. No, really. Your thoughts are to the joy of enemies. No less.

[edasko]

Well, yes, underground factories work hard at night, crews train in tens of thousands, and secret (underground) exercises are held in secret divisions. And at hour X, a mighty army will come out from under the earth and pile on everyone. Do you yourself believe in that? You look at the shiny hydrocephalic physiognomy of our government. Can anything normal be expected from them? I love the army, but the army is nothing without society and the economy, and the economy drives the government (see above).

[igorbrsv]

By the way, in Syria, our troops became a complete surprise to the West, not to mention the appearance of the s-400, they instantly moved and deployed

[edasko]

Yes? In fact, evidence of our assistance to Assad appeared in 2011. And in 2015, everyone wondered if Putin would decide to directly officially intervene. This was preceded by the movement of goods through the Bosphorus and the construction and restoration of the runway. By the way, where does Syria come from? Some weapon suddenly appeared there, of which no one suspected the number?

[alexnmv5]

And if you go there? Do you think it will get better? Every nation has a government from God, according to its spiritual condition. What we are, such is the government.

And if you go there? Do you think it will get better?

And I don’t know, maybe better, maybe worse. I’m not ready in many ways and do not aspire there, because I am aware of the responsibility and lack of ability and knowledge. I remember one of the philosophers said that only a mentally abnormal person can aspire to power voluntarily. It’s a little debatable, but our rulers cling to their posts with all their paws, in my opinion, just because of obvious reasons. Here is Stalin. Were you crazy? Probably yes. Even with good intentions to participate in the killing of a huge number of people, not everyone can. But he had only 3 rubles on his savings book after his death, by today's standards he was just a bum. He worked for the good of his country as best he could in his own way about the correctness.

That's right now, yes, I agree. So you don’t have to lay illusive hopes on a superweapon forging in gnome underground workshops?

You are talking nonsense, comrade. In a poor country with a poor raw-material economy, you can only finish the legacy of the USSR and pray that oil will not collapse in price.

This is your poor head - with knowledge, and the economy is no longer raw, the export of non-raw products is 340 billion, of raw 230.

Quote: Vadim237

This is your poor head - with knowledge, and the economy is no longer raw, the export of non-raw products is 340 billion, of raw 230.

[Vadim237]

Please: rocket engines, optical instruments, agricultural machinery, locomotives, wagons, mining equipment, reactors, fuel elements, isotopes, all agricultural products, construction equipment, software, medical equipment, 3D printers for construction, measuring instruments, alloys and much more - you ask why this is not visible on the domestic market, it is on the domestic market, but not enough, it is much more profitable for manufacturers to push their products abroad, since the profit from this is twice as much from a unit than from sales in the country - thanks to the dollar and the euro for 63 and 70 rubles respectively.

[Fedoslov]

Where does the information come from, friend? Can share to finally open the eyes of everyone there behind the times?

[Vadim237]

From everywhere - from all the media.

We precisely export wheat. Grain trucks go to the port with a rampart and moreover we sell the best wheat. That which is better left to ourselves.

Get out, then they will come out ... but who will let them out !! ?? You probably really love the song about "our armored train on the siding" Here somewhere on the siding of the enterprise with the prepared technical process for Armata on the Su-57 and other "spare" cartoons, trained highly skilled workers (25 million commercials) with itchy golden hands they are sitting in ambush at the machine tools ... You, my friend. idealist. that all this was necessary to spend (not to cut) money on vocational education to expand and equip production and much more, regardless of whether it is market or not, and for some reason we have a budget surplus in short supply

[Bad thing]

Mark1!. You have not yet mentioned trained crews, well-coordinated subunits and military command and control bodies, an established technical support system, and a proven methodology for combat use. And this, too, has been developed over the years.

[yehat]

the appearance in 1941 of the battlefield t 34, was for the enemy a complete surprise

the funniest thing is that the Abwehr literally kicked his feet away from allusions to the existence of the t34-76a and kv-1a. For example, when talking with our commission, which was at the tank factories in Germany, ours were surprised that the Germans did not have a tank in the niche of 30-35 tons, which led to a number of curious pickets. In 40, Guderian was forbidden to speak out about Soviet tanks in OKH. His reports puzzled the high command. But in July 41 Germans literally had to put up with reality. The report that they saw heavy tanks in action on the Finnish front in the winter of 40 was simply ignored (our tanks didn’t reach the front, but the captured soldiers talked about them). Etc. If the Germans wanted to know the truth, they would have guessed that the Red Army had at least one tank heavier than 30 tons in a high degree of information.

[edasko]

The experts are super. If a serious mess starts, then:
The number of military aircraft in the United States is ~ 8, in our country - ~ 250.
We have only a few 4 ++ planes and count not 5 generations, and the United States has hundreds of them.
For the SU-57, the F-22 and F-35 are not competitors, so you can not do them. Well, with the tanks as well. But if the war begins and we see that the matter is bad, then quickly do it. And will factories stand at that time? And will resources be alright too? And how much time does one SU-57 or Armata take?
Well done article author. Power every day becomes worse and worse. Rather, build another Yeltsin center, damn it, we really miss it!

[Vadim237]

If the war begins, it will end in 30 minutes, when the warheads hit all the targets, and your advice is to walk along, develop yourself and thoughts about the war will disappear.

[edasko]

Will not end. Everything is just beginning. You would read articles useful for development on this resource.

[Vadim237]

So the fact of the matter is that most of these articles do not need to be taken seriously.

[edasko]

Vadim, what should be taken seriously? For example:
https://topwar.ru/143116-yadernye-strahi-i-illyuz
iya-security.html
what do you have against? Does your life experience, intellect, knowledge, allow you to refute these conclusions? Or, "develop and thoughts of war will disappear" based
on the fact that he is young, healthy and will live forever?

[Vadim237]

It’s just that no one bordering with us has the strength or equipment except China to fight with us, and even then the Chinese do not fight with Russia, because it is aware that China will disappear in the procession when 2000 warheads are brought down on it, with USA is the same.

[edasko]

And in order to fight, do you need a common border? But doesn’t NATO have common borders and bases with us practically in the circle of Russia? And of course, NATO does not have enough manpower and equipment? But isn’t the accumulation of resources and the construction of military infrastructure taking place now in eastern Europe? They are probably going to grow flowers there. I envy you, you are convinced that everything will be fine. In Ukraine in 2013, if someone said that they would have a civil war and they would lose part of the territory, they would call him an idiot and advised him to take a walk and cleanse his brains. And how it all turned out ..

[Vadim237]

NATO is when in practice, one for all and each for itself. The Ukrainian army during the night can be smashed to smithereens, by aviation and artillery a large part of it is in the Donbass.

[yehat]

and the United States has hundreds of them

the United States has combat readiness of f-22 and f-35 in the amount of slightly more than 100, and then it is more likely conditional combat readiness,
to coincide with their technical description. Of the 8250 aircraft, at least a third will never fly anywhere, but simply listed on the balance sheet. The situation is better than German but not much. Sometimes just because of the climate. Therefore, the difference in the number of really modern aircraft is not large. But the difference in the reserves of experienced pilots is really big.
The biggest difference is in drones, carrier-based aircraft and AWACS. here the Russian Federation loses a lot.

[novel66]

there weren’t 41 tigers, and with the fact that the magpie coped at a time, but near Kursk, already 57mm would not be enough

[Kot_Kuzya]

In fact, even the 32-mm armor of the T-3, forty-five pierced from extremely close distances, from 100 meters or less. During the Polish campaign, the Red Army managed to seize the T-3, and in 1940 officially bought the brand new T-3, and the shelling of these two copies from the 45-mm gun brought nothing comforting for the leadership of the Red Army. And about Shtug-3 with 50-mm frontal armor and nothing to say.

[novel66]

nevertheless, the whole severity of the battle with tanks near Kursk was carried out by IPTABRA - forty-five heights and 76 mm divisions

[Kot_Kuzya]

If you read the statistics of the losses of the Tigers and Ferdinands, then most of them were burned from mines, and not from artillery. Even the side armor of the Tiger, and especially the Ferdinands, was invulnerable to 76 mm cannons. But 85-mm anti-aircraft guns, body 122-mm guns and 152-mm howitzer guns were very few.

[novel66]

By the way, I looked at the wiki
Penetration, mm

Armor-piercing projectile BR-240

The initial velocity of the projectile 750-770 m / s. Shell weight 1,43 kg.
meeting angle 90 ° from the tangent plane to the armor (normal)
at a distance of 100 m: 82 mm

meeting angle 60 ° from the tangent plane to the armor
at a distance of 500 m: 40 mm
at a distance of 1000 m: 28 mm

With the BR-240P projectile

The initial velocity of the projectile 1070 m / s. Projectile weight 0,85 kg.
meeting angle 90 ° from the tangent plane to the armor (normal)
at a distance of 350 m: 82 mm
at a distance of 500 m: 62 mm
Why didn’t I take 32mm?

[Kot_Kuzya]

Do you believe Wiki or reports from the training grounds where German tanks were tested by shooting? In fact, most of the anti-tank missiles were carried by 76 mm guns, since the 45 mm were weak, and the Soviet command was aware of this. During the years of the war, from 1942 to 1945, 25 thousand ZIS-3s were sent to the front in the VET, while only 45 thousand were manufactured for the 42 mm M-11 cannons.

[novel66]

I don’t know who to believe - these numbers also didn’t come from the ceiling, probably

[yehat]

even at the end of the war, even under the balonon, when the wrecked cars were watching, most of the hits were from 76mm guns, and almost all of them were on board.

[yehat]

57mm gun pierced the tiger in the forehead from distances at which he usually did not have time to detect it
and if it was close, then it could well penetrate it even through.
The problem was different - accuracy. Other guns could shoot trunks with experienced gunners or a mechanical water gun into the viewing slot, and with the 57mm ZIS-3 gun the scatter was such that it was possible to aim only approximately. This feature led to the fact that long-distance shooting was extremely ineffective. But the tiger had exactly the same problem. Is-2 from a distance of tigers was simply shot with impunity, winning much in accuracy and in the fact that the tiger couldn’t penetrate Isa’s frontal armor, but 122mm shells quite confidently broke even from a distance. Since the end of 44 years, Is-2 rarely approached targets closer than 2 km.

[Ber]

The good news is that they can return to the Black Eagle project or to a more perfect one.
Since even the recharge rate of the battery is ten times faster than that of Almaty

[novel66]

152 mm cannon! point again sculpt 125?

[silver_roman]

reading all this, I recall a conversation with one of our "marshals" VO, who always firmly believed in "plans" for the purchase and deployment of equipment in the troops. This applies not only to Armata, but also to the T-50, and new engines, ships, etc.
We talked with him on this subject many times. As it turned out, he was wrong))). and in such a situation I really do not want to be right, but damn it, so it was all obvious. Sorry...

- allocation of money for the construction of the Yeltsin Center.
- no allocation of money to Armat ...
What else would he come up with to cheer up the people?

[Vadim237]

Allocation of money for the modernization of Sakhalin infrastructure, the construction of a bridge to Sakhalin, as well as 800 kilometers of railways.

[Black sniper]

Uralvagonzavod has an order from MO for 100pcs of T-14 Armata, and for 2020 it’s 250pcs, so don’t cry.

[Vadim237]

Let them cry - it’s good for them.

[yehat]

But what are you fixated on the armatures? You need to look comprehensively.
And in the complex - curtailing work on the PAK DA, severely cutting back on the PAK FA program, strongly cutting down programs based on Armat platforms, cutting down a number of teams in Almaz-Antey, and so on - cutting down everywhere. Modernization programs for old tanks are also being cut.
In aviation, there is another problem - stupidly there are no modern missiles in warehouses. What really is - everything is already very outdated.

On Sakhalin, half a million people and billions of dollars of investment with vague prospects, and in regions where the population is 4-5 million, there is no investment at all.
when everything is described, it starts to look different.

[Vadim237]

From the beginning, take an interest in how much and what they built in the regions over these months - and then write about “no investments”.

[yehat]

otherwise I don’t know. He worked for 10 years in a construction holding. You do not confuse repair and replacement work with real investment. In St. Petersburg, they can’t expand the Murmansk highway to 4 lanes for more than 10 years, they have successfully mastered the allocated budget 2 times.
and do not confuse stadiums for the World Cup with investments.

[Vadim237]

But I’m not talking about road repair and building houses, but about factory enterprises, workshops and everything else that was done throughout Russia and how are stadiums and other things for the World Cup not an investment in urban improvement?

[BAI]

The decisive word, as always, lies with the accountant.

And near Kursk, the number of our aircraft did not prevent the Germans from gaining dominance in the sky, although it was like there were yaks, shops, and experience was gained.

What nonsense. After losing the Kuban air battle (Me.109 against La5) in the spring of 1943, the Kursk Bulge (summer 1943), the Germans prepared their latest aircraft - FW-190, which perfectly proved themselves against the allies (Spitfayer, etc.). But on the Kursk Bulge FW-190 was a deafening failure - the losses of the fokers in the sky above the Kursk Bulk exceeded even the losses of the Messers in the Kuban air battle.

[yehat]

it's you raving. look at least the general statistics - the number of sorties, losses, eyewitness reviews. Even senior officers spoke out in this regard.
A real turning point in aviation came only by the year 44.
But you can continue to quote agitation that everything was just super.
As for the FW-190, look at least what modifications were used.

Now they are fighting in a different way, and the elite is far from Stalin's commissars. But it would be nice for some ministers to crunch bones not in the fitness center but during interrogation.

[AleBors]

Duc it is understandable. A modern tank is not a villa or a yacht with a bl .. with photo models. Some expenses and no pleasure. Therefore, the power oligarchy pinches money for this.
So that military spending will be reduced and the people, so as not to arise, will be entertained with all sorts of spectacles such as "uniforms" and other rubbish with beer and women.

It is true that the oligarchs snatched their own in the 90s, now officials are digging, and so on. how the oligarchs did not dream.

[yehat]

Yes? take the construction of the Olympics in Sochi - the issuance of facilities for the construction of 2/3 of the budget left kickbacks in Moscow. This I clarify where the guys are on the ground. Sochi was built by sub-sub contractors at 1/10 of the allocated money, and then the construction was initially frozen, because money went first into circulation - often it was not enough for construction.
So do not flood about the locals.

[AleBors]

I agree. In 2009-2012 I visited these construction sites, I saw, I heard ...
And our opponent is either naive or not far ... Alas ...

[Vadim237]

And there is evidence that 2/3 in Moscow remained kickbacks - they spent 1,5 trillion on the entire Olympiad, and only 230 of them were budget money.

[yehat]

I’m not an investigative committee - I just conveyed what eyewitnesses and real contractors said.

And then we are surprised and where did the money disappear here - these eyewitnesses had to go to the prosecutor’s office right away, and not mumble among themselves - they were afraid and so on.

An assault robotic tank with a 203 mm automatic cannon, with six robot platforms attached to it - 12.7 machine guns with integrated RPG and RPO gun mounts - for urban battles, one carries out fortifications and equipment, and the second destroy militants firing points of RPGs, snipers, while simultaneously escorting and covering the tank, carrying out reconnaissance.

[yehat]

It is fantastic.

[Vadim237]

It will be the most powerful, coolest tank, the shell of which, with a mass of 120 kilograms, even in the form of a blank, will have a kinetic energy of 194 MJ, which is comparable to 49 kilograms of TNT. If you hit a tank, heavy BMP or armored personnel carrier, you don’t need a second shot, the tower will be torn off, and all the rest of the armored vehicles will shatter, at least put some kind of dynamic defense and KAZ on them. He will have a recognition system for his alien four-track chassis like the Object 277, which will provide excellent cross-country ability, all-round visibility systems with data transfer between robotic tracking machine guns, search for optical systems, IR sighting devices, as well as a communication channel with drones. The case will consist of a skeleton on which the engine with transmission, a gun and sectional mounted armor with dynamic protection will be modularly mounted, which will allow changing damaged elements in the field, dynamic protection - in the form of knockout mounted armor plates, against cumulative it works as a passive system protection, and against BOPS as active. And it will not be necessary to risk the lives of tankers and infantry, such tanks will be able to carry the most fortified urban areas, military bases, bunkers, roadblocks.

[yehat]

technically what you described can be done
the problem is different - the logistic fiction you describe is fantastic.

[Vadim237]

This is what we are going for, the army needs unmanned combat vehicles.

[yehat]

yes what unmanned vehicles? We have big problems with regular field communications. Problems with a network of repeaters, problems with GLONASS satellites. And while this does not happen, there’s no point in talking about any unmanned junk. Work must be carried out sequentially.
In the USSR, in the 80s, it was planned to transfer part of the bomber aircraft to unmanned control, and even experimental samples were ready and tests were in progress, but the USSR had well-established global communications, a large group of satellites and an industry that would quickly put into operation , what is missing. And now the conditions are much worse.

[Vadim237]

Nor are there any communication problems and the GLONASS 24 satellites are working normally.

[yehat]

24 work? really?

[Bad thing]

Quote: Vadim237

It looks like they spent the Internet in a madhouse.

[Vadim237]

All 24 work - at least the Moscow Region does not complain about satellite navigation.

[Vadim237]

No one cancels anything - calm down.

[Graz]

it’s clear that it’s cheaper to modernize the old things, but this is not an option, you can lose the technology and culture of production of modern technology, and when the roasted rooster pecks in the ass then they catch it and the zashniks are empty

[Vadim237]

“Lose the technology” - Will it be eaten by you?

[Bad thing]

No, they won’t eat it up, enterprises or individual manufactures simply lose it, go bankrupt and disappear, there are some examples of equipment that cannot be restored now, since the production of components was profaned in the 90s, especially with regard to lamp electronics. And there are also enterprises where the production base, documentation has been preserved, and there is no one to work, specialists have died out or already at a disabled age, and there is no one to replace them, because specialized vocational schools (or technical schools) have been gone for 20 years,.

[Vadim237]

And what kind of samples of equipment that are now impossible to restore - more. Enterprises are now introducing retraining courses more and more.

[yehat]

today's Russia in the next 20 years is not able to repeat Buran, even if there is money in the budget. The technological base and hundreds of unique specialists in narrow topics have been lost. This is an example of the state of industry. Just like the Americans, in the next 2 years they will definitely not be able to repeat the Apollo program - they also lost a lot of things. But compare the estimated dates.

[Vadim237]

But he really needs this Buran - no, now we need single-stage aerospace aircraft - he took off and returned.

[yehat]

I am talking about the state of industry and its possibilities for production.
Of course, there is no point in making devices 30 years ago, but we don’t have such an opportunity.

[Vadim237]

It is possible to produce fully and the equipment is appropriate - there are simply no such projects and they are in no hurry to allocate money for them.

[yehat]

look at Ukraine, how they lose the ability to produce tanks. And how they lost the base for aviation production. There is nowhere more visible.

[Bad thing]

Quote: Kot_Kuzya

But 85-mm anti-aircraft guns, body 122-mm guns and 152-mm howitzer guns were very few.

Not their task with tanks on direct fire to fight. 152 mm in those days it is mainly the RVGK brigade. 122 mm case.

[yehat]

near Kursk, 85mm anti-aircraft guns (and part of the captured 88mm anti-aircraft guns) were used exclusively as a direct-fire anti-aircraft gun. shooting on airplanes was prohibited.
reason - there were not enough supplies of guns ZIS-2 and ZIS-3.

[Bad thing]

Quote: yehat

shooting on airplanes was prohibited.

Fiction, Junkers or Heinkel with bombs is less dangerous than Tiger or Panther?
Another thing is that there were cases of using anti-aircraft units as anti-aircraft missile defense in the event of a breakthrough in defense. But no one took off the task of covering them from air strikes.

[yehat]

I can’t recall the official order from memory, but it was. and it can be found in the archive.

[Graz]

100 pieces a year would be produced already it would be nice, I don’t think that for these 100 pieces they can’t find $ 500 in ruble terms

[NordUral]

There are no words besides the mat! And not only on these, but on ourselves! How could you vote for them, tell me? No pensions, no equipment for the army, no new industrialization. Only cut, theft and the digital economy from Alice and Cat Basilio for the burdock people.
And we were proudly looking for the first satellite in the sky, did Yuri Gagarin return with joyful impatience?
Already I can’t believe that it was us. It's a shame and a shame for yourself and the country!

[Bind]

New reason for jumping?
You are not tired? To escalate the situation?

[APASUS]

Where are the spies, where are the traitors, so here they are! They sit in high headquarters, in easy chairs and bring down the latest developments - so who are they? There is money for bridges, olympiads, rallies and summits, but there is no defense!
I am not an admirer of Stalin, but here you remember in captivity!

[Vadim237]

You sometimes turn your head on - and disconnect from blank articles.

[yehat]

There are many myths about Stalin. I study a lot of history of the period 1900-1950gg
and many things change. Most of Stalin’s decisions are really the most effective choice of all possible on that moment. Study and this understanding will come.
Moreover, he had personal failures in decisions more than once, but most of them were just little known. For example, Stalin was very sorry that he gave way to the Stakhanov movement - it was a serious mistake, with the consequences of which he then struggled for a long time. The impotence of the USSR before the Munich conspiracy is another consequence of Stalin's mistake.

[Vadim237]

His most catastrophic mistake was “Collectivization” after such a development of the village and there was no question, the young fled from non-rural collective farms, to socialist construction sites and to the army, under Khrushchev, the peasants were given passports, pensions, but the dump of the population from the villages accelerated.

[yehat]

utter nonsense - the whole world went over to collective farms, otherwise it was simply impossible to use mechanization. The mistakes were in the specific features of the creation of collective farms, but not in a general solution, and this was no longer done by Stalin and Lenin, but by local activists.
As for rural politics, I want to remind you that local authorities were engaged in this and 90% of the problems arose because of them. Take at least your beloved good Khrushchev. The peasants received from him not only passports, but also 2 mass starvations, and mass executions (tens of thousands) It was he and his comrades who organized a terrible form of collectivization in Ukraine, and then blamed Stalin for this.
And when he was transferred to Moscow, it was he who introduced a number of hellish rules in the countryside, which is why literally everyone was taken from people in central Russia from their personal households, but you are not blaming Khrushchev, but Stalin.
I repeat - you have studied very little history and repeat stamp after stamp

[Vadim237]

I don’t need stamps, I have living eyewitnesses of those years, grandfather is already 100, grandmother is 102 years old, stepbrother 98 - lucky with centenarians, grandfather lost the sex of the family they dispossessed in the 30th, in the second category, and his father’s stepbrother in general in the first the categories were shot, he had only three cows and two horses. Khrushchev, compared with the guys who went through the villages from 28 to 37 years old - a small and fluffy kitten, Stalin knew everything - because such methods, his sought after profession, focusing on the rest, 10 million collectivized ones - destroyed families and ruined lives - all this was conceived for industrialization, it was not worth it. According to his stories, the way it was

[Strategy]

The letter "O" - this means that the sample meets the tactical and technical requirements that were determined at the initial stage of the organization, not even R&D, but R&D. In turn, TTTs are developed on the basis of a forecast of the nature of future wars, especially in terms of the weapons and military equipment used. So it turns out, TTT are developed on the principle of three "P"? What kind of specialists do the ministry of defense work in (in the GUV MO, VNK VS)? And who appoints them there? Or did the personnel pit rise to the upper echelons of military command?

But you can continue to quote agitation that everything was just super.

In 1944, and especially in 1945, everything was super, compared to the Germans. Want to challenge?

[Vladimir Avakimov]

Why live? You’ll die anyway.

[YES]

"You can't spread a rocket on bread." Cool saying, just in time. Now it seems to me that the situation in the country is such that it is more correct to pose the question: "not what to fight, but for whom?" Miracle patriots at a critical moment will scatter their burrows, and the people, as in the Second World War, will have a mixed opinion, and if there is a great goal, now there is no goal, where it is not clear where to fight, cartoons rule, and hatred-inspiring moods are supported by propaganda. ? why should we spend money on real iron, it’s easier to remove a cartoon in which to write “super tank” on a tractor, etc.

[Vadim237]

Everything that was shown in the "cartoons" is already in hardware and is being tested. No one canceled the Armat platform.

[NordOst16]

Yes, judging by the comments of the powerful Russian army, Armata is not needed, not Su57, I'm not talking about other areas.
Maybe I'm terribly biased, but after such words it becomes insulting, I want to call them simply, but you can’t (((They say something about patriotism, they pump up cartoons and promises, but in the end, nothing

[businessv]

And this heresy is broadcast by high-ranking officials of the country ... Apparently, they have uninhabited towers, unlike our armored troops - a common occurrence.

Bravo, gentlemen! The authors harness not childishly! Finally, a sober and bold assessment of the actions of our bureaucrats appeared! In our Crimea (in Sevastopol) the bureaucrats for 4 years have become 3 times more than they were in Ukraine, not by the night be said! But we were hoping that they would take it right now, as they would disperse all the burials! And it’s like, it happened awkwardly! Moreover, instead of a ban on the withdrawal of capital from the country, they are sponsoring state funds to the oligarchy, which withdraws these same capital! Maybe the state sponsors and this oligarchy have common accounts, so why such a mess (from our point of view, of course)? And now how to get rid of them all ?! They really have towers ... uninhabited!

[gromoboj]

Destroying 2 tank plants (Leningrad and Omsk) received a monopolist. It will not be cheap. Well maybe too. Nothing personal just business.

[yehat]

How else? our economy is already poorly diversified. Even if there is a different plant, its suppliers will be the same and the tank will be very similar. The situation with plants simply repeats the general situation.

[NordOst16]

Vadim237,
So, what does our mechanical engineering work for? Military industrial complex, Roscosmos, Rosatom. Maybe an oil industry, but that’s all. Somehow it’s not enough, the most profitable thing is to sell all sorts of crap to people so that they buy it because it’s much more profitable and the money will be spent on something truly interesting.

[Vadim237]

Here is one of the samples of our medical instrumentation

[yehat]

in my opinion armata looks ugly. T80 is much more beautiful.

[wicked pinnochio]

It’s not easy to sell T 72 tanks to all sorts of Arabs and blacks and use the money to equip troops with T 90am tanks and buy a couple of armatures as commander’s ones

[Normal ok]

Of course, Borisov could not help but say that the T-72 in service is much more attractive to the military both technically and financially. ...
And "Armata" look good on the parade. Here are a dozen of them - and pretty. Expensive.

This reminds me of the story with "Oploty"? We collected a dozen for the parade in the 00s. That's all. And now the main emphasis is on the modernization of sixty-fours.

[yehat]

64 is not a bad choice.
but NATO has been adapting to fight tanks of the T30, T62, T64, T72 generations for 80 years
and not to no avail. It's time to create something new.

[as-buki-vedi]

Well, who are you listening to? It’s through these scribblers that they pour out negativity! They are trying to impose an arms race, they will have to and they will launch it, but for now they are working on it, we have enough tanks for everyone, and the technologies are being developed and tested, just in case. All the losers are eating Madrid!

[Vadmir]

In the modern world, events are developing so rapidly, and modern technology is so complex and takes so long to manufacture, that if this “just in case” of yours happens, then you don’t have to rush - there will still be no chance to make it in time.

[ZVO]

Vadim237,

Quote: Vadim237

Tell the Navy, to the designers of the Poseidons, the Harpsichords, the Tsifalopods and other unmanned underwater vehicles.

Is at least one of the “characters” you named realized in metal and put into service? - No.
And the Harpsichord is also a model.

[Vadim237]

Strange layout, however - don’t find it, or you are one of the cardboard troops of Ukraine.

[ARES623]

“It is worth recalling that the need for Armata was first estimated at 2 units. Then the Ministry of Defense announced the construction of 300 vehicles “for the first time.” Then came “blah blah blah”, and the number was reduced to a trial batch of 1 cars."
You, Mr. Journalist, apparently cannot be pleased with anything. Then in almost a dozen articles you pour righteous anger on the thoughtless government for the lack of money in the Pension Fund. Now you demand to supply 2300 Armata to the troops. "Baba Yaga" is always against? “.....– As for the Armata, for now the so-called regimental kit for training crews and running in the vehicle itself is quite enough,” adds Leonkov.” What's strange about this? The machine and its operation must be brought to mind. And they do it right. “Childhood diseases” of equipment should be treated in small pilot batches, and not by recalling series of thousands of machines from service. Today, in the confrontation with the West, we need more the strategic nuclear forces, the equipment of the ground forces, in this confrontation, still in the background. You, like a lousy general, are preparing for past wars. But the war will be different. But why “will it be”? It is already underway, and it is not going according to the scenario in which thousands of Armata are needed. And you blindly throw a bucket of slop towards the government with every breath they take. The liberal economy of the state apparently suits you. The export of raw materials from the first processing stage, the poor state of the means of processing and storing grown food, which could really increase the added value of the produced product, are not criticized by you. But in vain.

[tank64rus]

“What can be thrown out of a combat vehicle to make it cheaper? What is unnecessary? And what kind of “specialists” will solve this?” Throw these “specialists” and at the same time overfed bureaucrats and thieves out of power.

[Phoenix]

So what is the article about? Some kind of verbal diarrhea.

[Newone]

Not an article, but a collection of nonsense.
1) An order has already been placed for 100 pieces of Armat. For comparison, the Bundeswehr has 255 tanks.
2) The cost of the Armata tank is “just over 250 rubles.” The cost of modernizing the T-000 is $000 (RUB 72) i.e. For the cost of one Armata, 100000 T-6s can be upgraded. Even if modernization increases the tank’s combat effectiveness by 700%, for the cost of the Armata we will get the equivalent of 000 T-37 tanks, which, based on World War II experience, will still be stronger than the Armata alone.
3) Now the country is far from having a military mobilization industry. And the industry is obviously not ready to release thousands of new tanks in the coming years. Therefore, in the coming years, we will not have thousands of armatures, whatever one may say, even if money is allocated. But there may be thousands of T-72M3s. And instead of fighting with two hundred armata (which the enemy will primarily knock out by far from direct tank clashes) and thousands of unmodernized T-72s, our army will be able to fight with one hundred armata and thousands of modernized T-72MZs, which, of course, will save much more lives of tankers (simply because the main tank of the army will be the more protected modernized T-72M3)
4) The Armata tank has just entered service with the troops and obviously requires identifying and correcting design flaws that absolutely any complex product has. first batch of 100 pcs. big enough to:
a) train troops for Armata;
b) identify shortcomings.
Identified deficiencies are much cheaper to correct on a relatively small batch of tanks than on thousands.

[NF68]

It immediately reminds me of 1941, when 57-mm anti-tank guns were stopped being produced because there were no targets for them. And then the comrades stood in Stalin’s office, soiled their dress pants and bleated when it turned out that, in general, there was nothing to beat the Tigers with.

Those were the goals. Otherwise, the Red Army at this time would not have transferred 76,2 mm from air defense units to anti-tank units. and 85 mm. anti-aircraft guns, although the Red Army at the same time had too few such air defense systems. Apparently, then the fight against German tanks was considered more important than the fight against German aviation. Production in 1941 57 mm. guns were FORCED to stop due to the difficulty of producing a long barrel, since on the equipment available at that time in the USSR, the proportion of defective barrels, according to some sources, reached 80% and the losses of anti-tank guns were too large. As a result, in 1942, the USSR began to produce 76,2 mm. divisional gun Zis-3 since the production of the relatively short barrel of this gun was much simpler than the 57 mm barrel. gun, and this gun could destroy German tanks that were in service with the Wehrmacht, although it was in many ways inferior to the 57 mm.
