The answer to the construction of the US missile defense system will puzzle the Pentagon. Shock tandem from "Tupolev" in the game

76

Announced by competent sources in the Russian military-industrial complex, the start of the program for integrating the Kh-47M2 "Dagger" anti-ship / multipurpose aeroballistic missiles into the ammunition and weapons control systems of the Tu-160M ​​/ M2 strategic missile-carrying bombers was greeted with enthusiastic comments from more than one hundred observers-regular domestic eminent domestic eminent news and military-technical portals, including Military Review.

Equipping the Tu-160M ​​/ M2 strategic missile carriers with the Kh-47M2 “Dagger” aeroballistic missiles will open up new horizons for the aerospace forces in modeling the advanced containment concept


And in this case there really is a reason for pathos reflection in expert communities and in an informed audience of the Runet. Indeed, the upcoming implementation of this program by specialists of the Kazan Aviation Plant named after S.P. Gorbunova (a branch of PJSC Tupolev), Tactical Missile Weapons Corporation (KTRV) and the Kolomna Design Bureau of Mechanical Engineering will turn the Dagger medium-range hypersonic missile system into a unique strategic containment tool with the “depth” of delivering order X-47M2 missiles 9500 km (taking into account the range of the Tu-160M2 missile carrier with the upgraded NK-32 turbofan jet propulsion system about 8000 km and the Kh-47M2 range of 1500 km) and the anti-missile potential of THAAD and Patriot PAC-3MSE systems deployed by the US military e not only in the territory of the Eastern European member states of NATO, but also in the continental United States.



At the same time, the Tu-160M ​​/ M2 - X-47M2 strategic strike ligament will be able to boast the following tactical and technical advantages in comparison with the White Swans standard ammunition, which is represented by nuclear sub-sonic stealth strategic cruise missiles X-101 and X-102.

First of all, it is 9-10 times higher average flight speed of the Kh-47M2 “Dagger” (8500 km / h versus 850–970 km / h for the Kh-101/102), which provides flight time to objects at a distance of 1500 km 10 minutes, while the X-101/102 cover the same distance in more than an hour and a half. As a result of this, during a hypothetical massive missile-air strike with “Daggers” against such strategically important objects as the key naval base of the Atlantic fleet US Navy Norfolk or Air Force Base and Marine Application Center aviation The US Navy in Jacksonville, at the disposal of combat crews of the Patriot PAC-3MSE missile defense systems, as well as operators of the Aegis combat information and control systems deployed on Arleigh Burke class destroyers, there will remain a negligible temporary “window” for tying the tracks and the beginning of the interception of the X-47M2, approaching at a hypersonic speed along a quasi-ballistic trajectory.

And if high-energy multifunction radars AN / SPY-1D (V) or more advanced radars AN / SPY-6 AMDR of Aegis systems can independently detect X-47M2 (effective reflective surface of the order of 0,07-0,1 sq. M) on distances of about 200-350 km (the final stage of the marching section of the trajectory) and give target designation to the RIM-174 ERAM / SM-6 ship-borne missile interceptors, the less powerful multi-functional AN / MPQ-53/65 radars of the Patriot PAC-3MSE complexes will not be able to detect the approaching "Daggers", because the detection range of ballistic targets with an EPR of 0,07 0,1-55 square meters m for these radars is only 80–73 km, and the maximum elevation angle of the scanning beam in the viewing mode is 60 degrees, while “Daggers” approaching the target at a distance of 70–80 km (the terminal portion of the trajectory) go into the dive mode at angles 85-53 degrees, going beyond the MPLS MPQ-65/XNUMX.

As a result of this, an attempt to intercept the X-47M2 Dagger aeroballistic missiles using the Patriot PAC-3MSE systems can only be carried out with the use of additional means of radar reconnaissance (AN / APY-2/9 radar aircraft DRLOiU E-3C / G and E-2D or high-potential radar AN / TPY-2 GBR), aggregated into a single network-centric missile defense system with the Patriots ’EOC (Engagement Operations Centers) combat control points using the Link-16 secure tactical information exchange network. In this case, the Patriot missile defense MIM-104F PAC-3MSE will be able to receive target designation for the "Daggers" and amid the inactivity of the multi-function radar AN / MPQ-65.

Here it is worth mentioning the second (main) technological advantage of the X-47M2 “Dagger” aeroballistic missiles, minimizing the likelihood of their interception by means of both the MIM-104F PAC-3MSE anti-ballistic missiles and the long-range SM-6 missiles. It's about the ability to perform intensive anti-aircraft maneuvers with overloads of about 30 units. on the terminal portion of the trajectory. The implementation of this mode is ensured thanks to the joint operation of the tail aerodynamic rudders and twin nozzle modules of pulsed gas-dynamic maneuvering engines.

To intercept such an object, the anti-missile must have available overloads of 65-70 units, which provides for equipping the gas-dynamic “belt” of transverse thrust engines to perform lightning-fast throws on the trajectory. The MIM-104F PAC-3MSE anti-aircraft guided missile is equipped with a similar “belt”; nevertheless, even with its presence, the maximum overloads of this missile can hardly reach 55-60G, which is not enough to destroy the “Dagger” aeroballistic missile by the method of kinetic destruction / direct hit (“hit-to-kill”). As for the long-range missiles RIM-174ERAM and interceptors of the THAAD complex, they do not at all have the ability to work on our X-47M2 Dagger missiles. The first is due to the small available overloads (30–35 G), due to the presence of only aerodynamic rudders; the second - due to the inability to intercept in the endoatmospheric region, in the dense layers of the troposphere, stratosphere and even the lower layers of the mesosphere, where the “Daggers” are operated.

      Translation of the article from Damantsevsky into Russian:
      - An unofficial announcement was made of equipping a unit of the White Swans (Tu-160 strategic bombers) with Daggers (aeroballistic missiles). This aroused the great joy of numerous military experts, mainly from the couch.
      - This combat complex will be able (hypothetically) to attack targets on the territory of the continental states - both due to the huge speed of the "Dagger" in comparison with conventional cruise missiles, and due to the traditional wretchedness of the air defense / missile defense of the Americans.
      - In the event that the cunning shtatovtsy nevertheless somehow target their radars and launch anti-aircraft missiles, the Dagger will leave them with a sudden maneuver and complete its combat mission. Indeed, unlike classic blunt ballistic missiles, it is trained to maneuver even at the end of its trajectory. So the Americans shouldn't even try to bring down this masterpiece of the Russian gloomy genius.

          First, no commands are needed in principle for a preemptive nuclear strike. The commander of the submarine receives a task in advance in a conditional "envelope" and, during the threatened period, goes into complete radio silence. At the appointed time, the envelope is opened, target data is entered and a launch is made.
          Secondly, communication with a submarine without surfacing is possible, as far as I know, on super-long waves. Unilaterally, of course. Transmission of large packets of information by such a channel is impossible, but the submarine is quite capable of accepting a brief cipher program (for example, confirmation / cancellation of an order).

In 1999, the 37th aircraft flew, and in 2007 - the 38th. "Peter Deinekin" became the 39th Tu-160. Today, Russia has 17 active aircraft, at least nine Tu-160 sawn Ukraine.

    "Dagger" is an aeroballistic missile, therefore, it flies along a ballistic trajectory (albeit a gentle one). When firing at a maximum range of 1500 km, the middle part of the trajectory will run at an altitude of> 130 km, where the Dagger is intercepted by the THAAD and SM-3 transatmospheric anti-missiles.

    Therefore, the more preferable is the Zircon hypersonic cruise missile with a range of 950 km, the middle part of the trajectory of which looks like an arc of a circle, enveloping the Earth's surface at an altitude of 40 km, where atmospheric SM-6 no longer work and transatmospheric THAAD and SM-3 are no longer working. ...

    it’s written quite well .. But Tu160 is only a dozen and a half, there is a NATO base around us. We will not be allowed to reach the borders of missile launch. We can only rely on launches from our territory. And then if we beat first, otherwise there will be losses of strategists at the bases from massive strikes of the Kyrgyz Republic from aerial bombers, submarines and surface ships + EW + LC. They just take the air defense count. We can only rely on attacks on European bases. And if the Dagger / Iskander is so touted, he can adapt it to the submarine’s m / c for work on coastal targets. Or diesel submarines by lengthening the hull (add a missile compartment for 8-10 launchers) to make missile carriers. Such submarines could be satiated with the Black, Barents and Okhotsk Sea. These are mini-strategists (like Tu22m) that can be used in local conflicts.

      The dagger cannot be adapted to the sea or land platform due to aeroballisticity. Otherwise, the accelerator from the stern grows of a severe scale, to throw it into the stratosphere and to supersonic. Few swans? But each piece will take 8. And this is a corridor shooting. You can start from your own territory. But for a group marine target, shooting back with a pair of swans will be ah how effective. Here, the Tu-160 will be able to work because of its air defense barrier, which nullifies the aug’s aviation filling, delivering daggers to the necessary defense face. But theirs is about exactly with reliance on the marine component to maneuver with density.

      If you change a high-explosive warhead in a dagger to a rod warhead, for example, out of 10 pieces of trihedral rods weighing 30 kg each, then no advanced system like AN / SPY-6 AMDR Aegis, or any other, can immediately detect flying objects with a cross-section of 4 cm2 especially if the end of the rod is still sharpened under a pyramid or screwdriver so that the reflected waves do not fall on the AFAR, or have a radio-absorbing coating, in this way one missile can create a massive attack of striking elements, by the way the rod warhead will change its overall size in comparison with the high-explosive armor-piercing shell of the same mass.

        To begin with, you will quietly lead the Tu-160 around the corner, and then dream. And by the way, from the photo you can see that the "Dagger" has an inseparable warhead, what are you planning to change there ?.

      Do not exaggerate the capabilities of NATO air defense. Their fighters intercepted the carcasses only when they did not try to get away from them and had already trained to shoot.

        Always something? Well, peacetime. Will we throw hats in the war? The enemy must be taken seriously. Especially the one that has AWACS aircraft, tankers and fighters, that land, that deck, that dirt. For the Tu-160, flying at low altitude or supersonic fuel increases fuel consumption by an order of magnitude, and it will not reach America.

          In America, he has nothing to do. He may well shoot under cover of the system

    As beautifully said, it’s a pity that nothing is understandable. It is clear that the Tu-160 is not very much.

    What do you want from Evgeny Damantsev? He always writes like that that we recognize ... It is strange that in this article there is a minimum of names and performance characteristics. Usually he has more

    Quote: Nikolaevich I
    This phrase is probably pulled out of the magazine "Young Technician" or "Modelist-Constructor"!

    The YUT magazine had a heading called HUMORON. _ humorous answers to the guys. There is nothing to be offended. I still remember the question: "Is it possible to make a pocket nuclear reactor"? and the Answer: "It is possible, but it all depends on the size of the pocket" laughing
    True, then we meant the physical size of the pocket, now usually mean financial laughing

    Quote: Whalebone
    Forgot to note that Damantsev with a stroke of the pen turned the ballistic Dagger into RCC. Now AUGam will surely come.

    Well, the "Dagger" and could initially be used as an anti-ship missile, but the fact that the TU-160 decided to turn into an anti-submarine is a masterpiece

    Quote: Chaldon48
    It is not clear to me that the Tu-160 is already in service with the "Dagger" or is it just a prospect?

    Doesn't have. And whether this prospect will be is also unknown. So far, only the MiG-31 is currently on experimental combat duty and continues testing. Neither the TU-22M3 nor the TU-160 have yet been adapted for this complex. And if the TU-22M3 "Daggers" will be on the external sling, then the Tu-160 - exclusively inside. And I would like to see how the TU will open the bomb bay doors at supersonic ...

    Take this corridor for long. The dagger, like Iskander, is interesting in maneuvering in all parts of the trajectory + active-passive false targets + EW.

    Maneuvering in all parts of the trajectory? How interesting. Is it okay that the "Dagger" will overcome the range of 1300 km in about 9 minutes, and the engine runs for about 75 seconds? And the rest of the time he flies by inertia. Than he will maneuver. The fuel will burn out completely, what will the gas rudders work on? Or will it maneuver in all parts of the trajectory with the help of these small wings, and where will active-passive decoys be located? Under the head fairing? So then, to release them, you will need to drop the head fairing and the "Dagger" will fly with such aerodynamics that the designers will tear their hair, and not only on the head ...

      And where will active-passive false targets be located?

      Large and adult missiles happen to be false, and here everything is in one glass. As explained, the warhead is not unscrewed, but in vain, if it detached on the final section of the trajectory, then there would be two missile defense targets, the first high-explosive warhead and the second the rocket itself.
      Regarding the establishment of the Tu-160 "around the corner", naturally it will not fly there, but the ballistic missile will fly straight through the corners and continents.

    during a hypothetical massive dagger strike with “Daggers” against such strategically important targets as the key naval base of the Atlantic Fleet of the US Navy Norfolk ...

    Beautifully written, already breathtaking. Now, if this dagger also had a nuclear warhead ...

    17 that 160 in the ranks. Few! Given the number of potential enemies from all sides, they need 10 times more.

      And what is not 100? One aircraft with weapons probably stands as a city, and there are few chances to reach the adversary. The Yankees were probably fools when they disbanded their strategic aviation command and use their strategists for tactical purposes, where there is no risk of running into a fighter or a modern missile.
