ZRPK "Shell-S" of the Khmeimim air base intercepted a small drone

55

On Monday, the Russian Pantsir-S air defense system of the Khmeimim air base spotted and destroyed an unidentified small-sized drone approaching the territory of a Russian military base from the Mediterranean Sea. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense.

According to the military department, the air defense systems of the base, with the onset of darkness, detected a "small-sized unmanned aerial vehicle" approaching the Russian military base from the northeastern part of the Mediterranean Sea. Affiliation drone failed to install.



Missile armament of the anti-aircraft missile-cannon system "Shell-S" of the Russian air base, the air target at a distance from the air base is destroyed. No injuries or material damage

- stated in the Ministry of Defense, adding that the last attempt to attack the Khmeimim airbase with the help of drones was made on January 19. The air base is operating normally.

Recall that earlier the Western media announced the inability of the Russian Pantsir-S air defense missile systems to detect and hit small targets such as drones.

      The carapace is a wonderful machine.
      But!
      Every launch is very expensive ...
      Although cheaper than the Torah.
      Well, in general, money in this case should be considered not by the cost of missiles, but by the cost of eliminating possible damage and, God forbid, the victims.
      Then it will not be expensive.
      One ago, I remember, the Su-34 was damaged. I think a couple of three missiles and it would not be a pity.

              But there are some doubts. Imagine .., the barmalei, on their knees, will rivet simple UAVs worth $ 2 and stupidly launch them towards our base. And we will shoot them with missiles worth $ 200. After 5 years, they will strip us to the skin. Or maybe earlier. Everything will depend on the performance of the barmalei.

                There is no drone for 2 bucks. If we estimate only the key components (motor, battery, autopilot, GPS, compass, pressure sensor, regulator, two servos), then in the most budgetary version it will just get close to 200 bucks. And it will be "kamikaze", without any feedback. Plus the costs of making the plane itself from local plywood and a fee to the dude who collects, configures and programs it all.

            Well said. Against this background, for some reason, the interception of Turkish missiles by the "Shell" during shelling of Syrian positions with multiple launch rocket systems remained unnoticed. Turks victorious reports on the destruction of the SAA. According to the Russian Center for Reconciliation in Syria, Turkey launched a large-scale missile attack on February 3 to clear the territory and advance the Turkish military. But this operation failed completely.























































































































































































































            According to the Syrian military, thanks to the placement of the Pantsir-S air defense missile defense system in the north-eastern part of Syria, it was possible to almost completely repel the attack. The “Shell-C1” complex intercepts 40 of 44 missiles launched by Turkey. Thanks to this, no one was hurt, and only small material damage from missed 4 missiles was recorded. Effective air defense allowed stopping the advance of the Turkish military towards Idlib. At the same time, the Turkish Minister of Defense, Hulusi Akara, reported on the successful operation and the significant damage to the Syrian Army, although he did not give specific figures.

            Experts say that such a report on achievements is understandable, Turkey simply cannot recognize the failure, and therefore spreads false information.

            I’ll disappoint you very much.
            Anti-aircraft fire is the most difficult task in artillery.
            They taught me this. Just on the S-60 57mm. VERY everything is complicated there! Highly!
            And shells with remote detonation of money cost ... good and you need to shoot the queue and the probability of getting low.

              For manual counting, of course, it is difficult. Bungle the program, then the whole calculation is seeds. It would seem: what can be opposed to high-precision aviation weapons (missiles, guided bombs)? And everything is terribly expensive, and calculations for bombing with conventional ammunition are no simpler than here illustrated with 57 mm artillery ... "Acting and retired military, analysts are surprised that Russian aviation in Syria strikes militants using old aircraft and ammunition The main work is performed by the time-tested Su-24 bombers and Su-25 attack aircraft, dropping conventional Soviet-style high-explosive and concrete-piercing bombs ... However, the fact that old planes drop old bombs right on target is horrifying to Western experts .. A specialized computing subsystem (SVP-24) analyzes data on the position of the aircraft and the target, atmospheric pressure, wind speed and direction, dozens of other parameters and gives the optimal bomb drop point.The technology works so well that ammunition deviates from targets from a height of six kilometers four meters. " As for artillery with programmable shells, this is how you have to work, and the result will be.

                No problem.
                Here are just the INITIAL data from where to get?
                The ball probe is launched and removes the incision in height. At different heights, different densities and air temperatures, humidity and wind through the layers can blow in different directions.
                Determining the speed of a parameter and the course of a target ...
                All this can make a mistake of tens of meters. And gives.
                It is practically IMPOSSIBLE to hit a plane with one shell. Let him at least a hundred times with remote detonation.
                By the way, 100mm shells (KS-19 cannon) EVERYTHING with remote detonation and for some reason I didn’t hear that they covered the sky somewhere. In height, by the way, they shoot at 10 km.

                  This is about "Shell", isn't it? The caliber of the gun is small, the height for such a gun is too. If something is wrong in the initial data, then the program automatically makes corrections, using the data of the radio-optical measuring instruments of the complex. I do not see, accordingly, problems with other art systems of a larger caliber, if they work in conjunction with measuring instruments. Well, yes, the first round missed. The system corrected itself, and the second - to the target ... I wanted to learn here about the artillery of the Navy against air targets, on the AK-100, AK-130, apparently, this is how they work.

            And how do you imagine the work of the GOS (albeit expensive) at NURS? That is, the head is "by itself", and the solid fuel NURS is by itself. The abbreviation "NURS" is an unguided rocket projectile ... With everything that you have listed for NURS, a shell with the same set will be cheaper! In addition, the projectile is sent to the calculated lead point, and with the NURS-ohm in this case, trouble (while it accelerates, until it reaches). For example, NARs (aviation analogs of NURSs) are launched at distances of up to 2 km. Further - you will not get, they will fly away "into milk". If you spin it well along the longitudinal axis, then yes, you will get somewhere else. The projectile during acceleration in the barrel just has the property of spinning up, and almost any speed can be reported (depending on the length of the barrel and the acceleration charge).

      Recall that earlier the Western media announced the inability of the Russian Pantsir-S air defense missile systems to detect and hit small targets such as drones.

      Drones were originally one of the target types that Pantsir must fight. At the time of the creation of the complex, these were fairly large and high-speed aircraft-type targets. Then drones became small, with a small effective scattering area, flying at low speeds. The vulnerability of all radar systems is precisely the work on such small low-speed targets. When they go at low speeds and altitudes against the background of strong reflections from the earth's surface, the target detection station is clogged. This is a very difficult problem however, "Carapace" copes with it... (TASS interview with the chief designer of the Pantsir-S air defense missile system Valery Slugin. January 29.01.2020, XNUMX)

        Everything is clear. In the terminology of the Air Defense Forces, "to intercept an aircraft" means to shoot it down or force it to sit down in the required place. It is in our media that "young ladies" practice different words, sometimes not understanding what they mean in military slang and often confuse "rapprochement" (with the goal of: drive away, warn, interfere, look, find out belonging, etc.) with " intercept ".
