Gunners get the AZK-7, capable of reconnaissance in spike with Orlan-10

The gunners of one of the units of the Eastern Military District received sound-measuring equipment from the manufacturer. This is a new filling station (automatic sound complex). This is the next AZK-7, which will be put into service of BBO units.

Ural-43203 - base car for AZK-7

The artillerymen of the Eastern Military District receive additional capabilities for conducting reconnaissance of both mortars and barreled artillery. AZK-7 allows you to perform this kind of exploration by the sound of the shots carried out by the enemy.

However, sound reconnaissance with the identification of the coordinates of the position of the enemy’s mortar gunners or gunners is not the only function of the AZK-7. The complex allows you to adjust the shooting of your own artillery units by analyzing sound waves captured after the ammunition rupture.

Significantly expands the functionality of the automatic sound measuring complex drone. The main defense department notes that the effectiveness of reconnaissance of enemy artillery and mortar crew positions has become significantly more effective when using the AZK-7 in “spike” with the Orlan-10 UAV. The accuracy of reconnaissance when using drones has increased significantly, as well as its range. Now accurate detection is possible at a distance of more than 15 km. How much more "more" is not specified.

AZK-7 is a hardware-software complex, the equipment of which is located on four cars Ural-43203.

This is a new gas station

I don't want to upset anyone, but the AZK-7 was put into service in 1986, even under the USSR. Apparently, we are not talking about a "new" but about "overhauled with partial modernization 8))))))))))))))" Modernization "consisted of replacing 131s with" Urals "8))))) ))))))))))) Plus old radio stations for new

By the way, in the photo in the article, Soviet rangefinders 8)))))

I don’t want to upset anyone, but the article reports yet another medieval stupidity in our army and presents it as the greatest achievement. It concerns the size, range and miserable tactics, and so it is with us all .... The firing range of the Tornado and G and C, the Coalition, even taking into account the safe placement and protection, suggests other numbers of reconnaissance and target designation, this also applies to their ASUNO with funny capabilities ... UAVs must provide the required range and be part of artillery divisions, or unite within the positional area, or better both at the same time ... Within the positional area, all crew control operators on duty should have by completeness of decision-making on the use and maneuver of assets and also to have their own reconnaissance assets many times complex ...

NATO countries do not have "Tornado and G and S, Coalition"

[okko077]

Yes, it’s almost a topic ... It’s clear that this is KONTRsredstva, but everything should work together, and it’s necessary to destroy the enemy with something ... Everything I said above is valid, everything should work together ...

Now accurate detection is possible at a distance of more than 15 km.

From Orlan-10 or from the AZK-7?
And if the length of the artillery system is more than 15 km. use another gas station?

Apparently, they see the following scenario: AZK-7 detects a firing battery, and instead of sending shells of a couple of divisions there, as before, an Orlan-10 slowly and languidly flies to a possible location.
If the enemy is so dumb that he did not hit the road after a fire attack and, moreover, he does not have air defense, then there really is an opportunity to hit the target more precisely.

As for the range, they lied. She will not be above 16.

uh .....
A large firing range does not mean that the guns will be far from the line of contact.

[Horse, people and soul]

Against mortar batteries, it’s written.

[Arhip smith]

The last paragraph is an open fly in the ointment, in the era of microelectronics, when processors are from 100 nm or less, and here such a picture is already 4 a / m Ural. I have a hope for a significant error, either from the author, or in my perception. And so it turns out that if one kunga fails / is destroyed, the rest is just very expensive scrap metal ...

and here such a picture is already on 4 a / m Ural.

This is the battle order. You can’t get there by one car. Rather, you can try, but then you will have to deploy the complex much longer than 1 hour.

In addition, the complex is old, developed in Odessa during the USSR.
In the end, we spat on Ukraine and successfully developed our sound-thermal 1B75 "Penicillin" There, by the way, there are even more cars.

Most of all I personally like Ural-43203, because he, unlike Kamaz, still has a forward engine and base. What is nevertheless the most reliable protection of the cabin and personnel from mine / landmine explosions for simple army trucks.

The staff is in the "kunga", not in the cockpit.

[Kuroneko]

Well, of course I'm talking about the driver and passengers in the cockpit. The staff, by the way (well, or part of it that fits) - you will not believe it - at any convenient opportunity, on the march he prefers to sit in the cockpit rather than in the kung.

Orlan-10 slowly and languidly takes off to a possible place.

That is even so? !!
And I already thought that the "slow and languid" Orlan-10 in conjunction with the AZK 7 should perform the function of an (atmospheric) sound repetition device ... yes, the knowledgeable people will forgive me, if such devices exist at all.

It turns out I'm good about this "spike" thought, dreamed?

[Lopatov]

Quote: sledak

function of the (atmospheric) sound absorber

It does not work out.
Extremely roughly - two microphones, by the time difference between the sound "peak" you can find the direction to the place of the shot. Two seats with two microphones - that is, two directions. And we get a triangle with two corners and one side. And we get the coordinates of the target.

In fact, everything is more complicated and there are more microphones. But the principle is just that
Therefore, no movement. Microphones on the ground, "tethered" with high precision and oriented

What's so complicated? The triangle, the coordinates of two vertices, two angles at these vertices and one side are known. Find the coordinates of the third vertex.

And if the enemy shoots from a distance of 30 km, etc. , then you can only wipe it off?

[Lopatov]

Quote: LomKuvaldych

And if the enemy shoots from a distance of 30 km

That's great and we won "local artillery superiority"

[chenia]

The most "fun" shooting with a sound reconnaissance unit. You can drink tea and even slightly pokemarit.
(and also they and the corrector instead of deviations). Initially arrange and then a pillow under your head. The main thing here is not to forget that you are performing the task.
Although he didn’t shoot with the latest complexes (AZK-7). may began to work faster.

The main thing is to rub the "glasses" into the population, that everything rustles, cracks, rings, in short - it works, the bulk of the population does not know that all the "new items" are from there, from the "damned" Soviet past, during which only "... galoshes released ... "!

[Tavrik]

Who is "in the subject", tell me, is the AZK-7 even needed? As far as I understand, Orlan can conduct various reconnaissance and report the necessary information to the command post. Or is it just necessary to prolong the existence of the enterprise, which has been feeding on the filling station-30 for 7 years?
