By the end of the year, the modernization of the measuring complex at the Kapustin Yar test site will be more than 60%
The delivery of the latest measurement tools to the Kapustin Yar test site is continuing, while in 2012 they will be received twice as many as in the past. Thus, by the end of the year, the modernization of the polygon measuring complex will be more than 60%.
In 2010-2011, a significant retooling of the landfill measurement complex (PIK) was carried out as part of the state defense order. During this period, more than 150 of the newest measuring instruments were put on the test site, including small-sized receiving and transmitting stations, equipment for receiving points of a single time signal, optical-electronic stations, antenna complexes, complexes of processing information, and radio relay stations.
Also began a deep modernization of a number of samples of measuring equipment. In particular, the radar trajectory stations Kama-N were upgraded on 50% of the total number, optical-electronic stations of trajectory measurements on the 20%, fully-telemetric stations, on the 85% - single time systems.
Last year, more than 30 samples of weapons and military equipment were completed at the test site. In the course of solving these problems, more than 500 launches of missiles, targets, rockets and overflights were carried out at the test site aviation, which is almost 1,5 times the number of starts compared to the previous year.
Today, the Kapustin Yar State Central Interspecific Test Site is a unified research complex with a high scientific and technical potential, a developed experimental and technical base, favorable climatic conditions, territory and airspace, allowing for testing and joint development of defensive and offensive weapons systems in the interests of all types and types of troops of the Armed Forces of Russia. In particular, for testing elements of ballistic missile combat equipment, the Kapustin Yar test site is unique. Only its test tracks and the test range of the test complex allow us to test promising combat equipment in the whole range of possible conditions for its delivery to targets.
