Hypersonic Zircon will be tested on board the frigate Admiral Gorshkov

The Russian Ministry of Defense intends to conduct the first launch of a Russian hypersonic Zircon rocket from a warship at the end of 2019. The rocket is planned to be launched from the frigate of the 22350 Admiral Gorshkov project, TASS reports, citing a source in the military-industrial complex.

Hypersonic Zircon will be tested on board the frigate Admiral Gorshkov




As explained by the source of the publication, previously the rocket was tested only from the shore stand. Tests with a marine carrier are planned to begin at the end of this year. The launch will be carried out from the frigate of the project 22350 Admiral Gorshkov, which is part of the Northern fleet. At the same time, TASS stated that at the moment they do not have official confirmation of this information.

Earlier it was reported that the newest Russian hypersonic Zirkon rocket is capable of speeds up around 9 Mach, and its range can exceed 1 thousand km. The rocket can be used both on sea and on land targets.

According to the portal flotprom.ru, the Zircon missiles will be launched using the universal ship-shooting complex with vertical launchers that are used for the Caliber and Onyx missiles. Such a UKS is installed on the new frigate of the 22350 project “Admiral Gorshkov”. Also similar UKS are installed on the corvettes of the improved version of the 20380 project and the submarine of the 885 / 885А "Ash" / "Ash-A" project.

      From the beginning of the letter, then analysis, then conclusion and fresh thoughts. But not the other way around.
      So we will rocket the rocket for six months in the mine, well, so that immediately how to test it? Although all missiles undergo transportation tests, but .... after.

      And what to believe? They said two and someone is lying by default.

      Russia's latest hypersonic missile Zircon is capable of speeds about 9 Machs, and its range may exceed 1 thousand km.

      And then this advertising booklet is how to perceive.



      Speed 8 Machsrange 350-500 km.

      And where is propaganda, and where is reality.

      Supersonic speed is from Mach 1 to 5. Hypersonic is from 5 to 7 Machs. What is higher is not hypersonic speeds, but cosmic ones. Above 7, the first space velocity needed to enter near-Earth orbit. 11 thousand is the second cosmic speed.

      A missile with a speed of 9 Mach is difficult, if not impossible, to control in horizontal flight. And not only because of the emerging enveloping plasma. But also because an object with such speed, even in horizontal flight, will overcome the force of gravity of the Earth and will tend to go into space. The flight path of such a rocket will be straightforward, and not corresponding to the curvature of the earth. Probably some steering wheels, additional nozzles are possible, but all this will incredibly complicate the design.

        And here 7. There is no restriction from above.
        What is higher is not hypersonic speeds, but cosmic ones.

        Lol, do not confuse Mahi with km / s. These concepts differ from 3 to 3.6 times.

        Above 7, the first space velocity needed to enter near-Earth orbit.

        Above 7 km / s, not Machs. 7 km / s is more than 20 Machs (depending on the height of the object)

        And from 7 max to 24 max (7,9 km / s the first cosmic speed) are also cosmic speeds? In order to overcome the Earth’s gravity, you need to accelerate to the first cosmic speed, that is, up to 24 max. That is, up to 8 km / s.

        Ay-yai-yay ... You have not mixed up everything, but most of it ... You have decided on the supersonic, but then ... The speed in 7M is not the first space; it is 7,9 km / s, i.e. roughly 25M at sea level (although it does not make sense to express it in M, because there is no air and therefore no sound). 9M - somewhere around 2700 m / s (depending on height), i.e. and close does not allow to fly into near space. And the carrier’s energy as a whole is not enough: the cumulative jet generally has a speed of ~ 10-12 km / s (i.e., it’s already the 2nd space), but for some reason no one shoots down satellites from RPG-7, even low-orbit ones ...

        A colleague, 7 flights is about 7,5 thousand km / h, the 1st space one is a little more than 7 km / s, i.e. about 23 km / h, the 000nd space - 2 km / s. or about 11,2-38 thousand km / h.

      They do everything correctly, now they are promoting it with a launch (if they don’t postpone it), then they will postpone the start of production of the series, and then the team of managers in the Kremlin will change, which will dump everything on the previous one. And guess later, either there really is no one to construct and do, and the backlog of the USSR is over, or it’s a pity that it doesn’t work at all.

    Do you repeat the same nonsense that you already wrote once? Teach a physics textbook, better for a class of 6, so as not to write nonsense about the fact that speeds above 7M are cosmic speed.
    The speed of 9M at an altitude of 40 km is 8111 km / h or about 2,25 km / s. The first space is 7,91 km / s or 28476 km / h. The second space is by no means 11000 km / h, at 11,2 km / s or 40320 km / h. Learn materiel, but do not write nonsense
