Russia refuses to use Balkhash radar in Kazakhstan

Russia denounces an agreement with Kazakhstan on the use of the Balkhash radar in the Russian Missile Attack Warning System (SPRN). The corresponding decree was signed by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, the document is published on the official portal of legal information.

Russia is withdrawing the Kazakhstani Balkhash node from the missile attack warning system. The need for it disappeared after the commissioning of the latest radar type "Voronezh-M" near the city of Orsk in the Orenburg region. The new Russian radar has a detection range of up to 6 thousand kilometers, covers the Balkhash radar sector, thereby actually replacing it.

The Kazakhstan node "Balkhash" in the Karaganda region, which includes the Dnepr radar, is used in the Russian missile attack warning system (SPRN) on the basis of an intergovernmental agreement of December 14, 1994. The last time the agreement was renewed in December 2014.

In the spring of 2017, after the commissioning of three Voronezh radars at once in Orsk, Barnaul and Yeniseisk, it was announced that a continuous radar field had been created in Russia to protect the territory from a possible threat of a missile attack.

Radar "Voronezh" - a number of Russian over-the-horizon radar stations on the ground-level EWS, operating in different ranges of radio waves. Radar capable of detecting cosmic ballistic and aerodynamic objects.

The Kazakhs themselves will probably not pull Balkhash.

[Roman123567]

It is also interesting to know - why for the sake of them to pull it at all .. Even if they pulled it ..

Nude Nude. In one rack 9,5 kg of gold;). So there’s something to pull iam :).

[Stalllker]

He still needs to be removed from there

[dgonni]

No problem .

[Stalllker]

In a word, how will you extract gold from the same contacts, etc.?

[dgonni]

Schroeder to help you. The main thing is to sort it right. That would not grind too much and different.
But this is such a mess in modern components. And in shovels there are such thicknesses of spraying that cut it straight with a knife :)
So that would be that. But there are no problems

[Stalllker]

I’ve been working at the Pole for ten years and I know the technology. As I understand it, you have no answer. And do not select, but extract. All technology is associated with the extraction of gold, not the allocation. in hydrometallurgy this is called cyanidation

According to the intergovernmental agreement of December 14, 1994, the Balkhash node is the property of the Republic of Kazakhstan and is provided for the use of the Russian Federation for a period of 10 years with a subsequent extension .... https: //www.kommersant.ru/doc/766827
Clause 1 of the Resolution - "To approve the proposal to denounce the Agreement between the Government of the Russian Federation and the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan onb transmission conditions and on the procedure for further use of the Kazakh node Balkhash in the Russian missile attack warning system. "

Near Usolye-Sibirskoye in the Irkutsk region, the Daryal-Mishelevka was blown up, because the Voronezh was built there, and the Daryal is more modern than the Dnieper and is no less big. The transmitting and receiving antennas were clearly visible from the path. Therefore, there is experience, and if necessary, it will be training for the engineering troops.

Kazakhs have deserted lands with rich mineral resources and a number of Chinese, whose development matrix is ​​taken from the former owners - the British. The Chinese need colonies and obedient aborigines, who will be called according to the modern colonial fashion felts * adherents of democracies * felts even how, but they will surely cut out the local bais (elite).
In the last century, during the assimilation of the territories that the Chinese seized and now included in China, there were no constraints on the destruction of dissent. All those who were against it were simply destroyed, without any invention or publicity.
Refugees from China, those who managed to escape from the Chinese and settled in Central Asia, remember that and the locals do not let them be deceived.

[Sergey Sfiedu]

"Refugees from China, those who managed to escape from the Chinese and settled in Central Asia, remember that and do not let the locals be fooled" - for the elite, the language of baksheesh. From the Chinese is stronger than the language of some poor Uyghurs ..

The nominal solution is that we no longer have to deploy our military facilities on foreign territory, if their technical capabilities from moving 500-1000 km will not affect their combat capabilities. Enough to pay all the former post-Soviet republics for the fact that we are also defending them - let them spin as they want, especially if they live close to one and a half billion.
By the way, not far from Alma-Ata in Chengeldy there was a huge complex of radio reconnaissance systems, special radio communications of the strategic link of the Main Intelligence Directorate, in which a lot of money was invested and which provided a lot of information. The Kazakhs stole all this, and instead of learning from us and maintaining these systems in working order, they simply plundered everything that they did not manage to take out.

Take it easy buddy, take it easy. Do not you think that already with the search out. Is there, for example, a more convenient place in Russia to track nuclear tests and conduct other naturally purely scientific research than the vicinity of the Chunkurchak Fault? It is further 1000 km from the nearest point in Russia today. There is also communication and politics.

The ZG radar has a rather large dead zone, hundreds of km. An important factor for the proper formation of the bottom line is the surrounding area. There are serious problems with this in the Balkhash region, in the east and south-east direction there are mountains, the Tien Shan Range.
In addition, there is such a thing as operating costs. For old equipment, and even in the territory of another state, they are much more expensive.
Therefore, it is correct and long overdue to close the Balkhash radar station.

Quote: Humpty

There is still communication and politics

The location of the Russian bases does not affect this in any way. Unfortunately, the policy of non-interference in the internal affairs of neighboring "friendly" states only leads to a deterioration in relations. "A holy place is never empty," and a vacant seat is immediately taken by the intelligence services of other foreign states seeking to put pressure on Russia.

[Sergey Sfiedu]

"the free space is immediately taken by the special services" - first of all, money takes up free space, the special services are just an appendix to money .. China and the United States have the opportunity to finance and invest in post-Soviet countries, but we cannot raise Russia from our knees, and then we are surprised, that we have no allies.

[Timon2155]

Well, we had money for Ukraine. We had the opportunity to finance it. Helped a lot? That's it

After the loss of Lourdes, all the other facilities for the country's security are just a trifle, and there is no need to invent dangers where they are not. Seismologists will detect explosions, and fallout can be detected using air intakes by aircraft, so this is a contrived reason to keep a foreign object.

Quote: Humpty

There is also communication and politics.

There is also common sense and high costs of maintaining foreign facilities. It is from this that we must proceed first.

Previously, for example, a radar operated at the source of Vakhsh on the Pamir Highway. Now this is not relevant. Nevertheless, quite important military installations remain outside of Russia since Soviet times, not Lourdes, of course.

When I served a term I went to the call from Kazakhstan. The first was from the north, that is, almost Russian, the second from the south, allah akbar, people hardly spoke Russian. And these were put on guard to guard the mine. That was the "guard", the officers were fucking with them. (90-92)

[knn54]

Chengeldy (Shengeldy, behind Kopchegai), somewhere 140 km from Alma-Ata (almost three hours by bus), the headquarters of the OsNaz-radio brigade and radio-technical intelligence, purely across China (.KSAVO) Plus the so-called "communication center" is already on Yankesam-Guam, in particular .. Direct subordination to Moscow.
I'm not surprised that they abandoned it.

A hundred or so, if memory serves. The road was excellent - we arrived an hour and a half to Alma-Ata in the UAZ.

They didn’t even have the staff to pull it off, and since the Kazakhs were too cunning, they decided not to study with us, but simply to plunder everything. There, some antenna fields were worth what, and the technical and housing stock was not bad. Poor North Koreans constantly taught their radio intelligence officers with us, and these "brothers" just to snatch more from the Soviet legacy - that's their gut and climbed out.

My son-in-law in Nikolaevka served in the VTA, I visited the Kopchegaysky reservoir, they caught bream on a "silver hook" (a can of alcohol for fishermen and a bag of bream in the car The son-in-law later told how the Kazakhs took their equipment in 92. They did not have time to convey how from the ejection seats they took all the parachutes into silk trousers to their women, and my sister worked as the head of the financial department in the regional executive committee, so they put the local national cadre of a free country in its place, dumb like a saxaul, but a nasyalnik, however. I had to leave myself. This is about the displacement of the "Russian occupants" in the 90s.

Before they could tell, from the ejection seats all the parachutes on the silk trousers were pulled to their women

Of course, these are big losses, but we suffered them even more when they were left with stationary objects whose property they did not allow to take out. And there the latest EU computers for that time were, a huge amount of all kinds of unique equipment, including satellite systems and antennas, stationary communication centers - in general, shepherds they are shepherds, but they always wanted to be superiors. It’s funny and bitter to remember this ...

Everything is right! We are proactive. No need to make the country's security dependent on the political situation in other states.

It is unlikely that this is the southern sector.

[Tatyana Sementsova]

Sorry ..... But I think they’ll come up with something ....

[Shkodnik65]

In Belarus, the radar has a completely different focus, there is control and communication with submarines. What also needs to be transferred to the territory of the Russian Federation

[Tatyana Sementsova]

Well, you have to endure ..... Lukashenko is not satisfied! He wants money for renting a place!

[Shkodnik65]

It is not only and not so much money. Being dependent on the unpredictability of the actions of the President of the Republic of Belarus (his successor) means that there may come a time when we lose communication and control of submarine nuclear forces. It is fraught with it. And Lukashenko understands this.

And rightly so. If we are able to ensure our security by deploying an SPRN system on our territory, increasing the approach time of the destruction facilities of our stations. 10 minutes in a modern war can be expensive.

Oh there Saigakov was a LOT .... and fishing, on Balkhash

[Pessimist22]

Fishing at Balkhash is still there, but the saiga population has declined significantly. Hunting for them is prohibited.

[rocket757]

Nature must be protected!
There a lot of things are scattered across the steppes, it was ... the training ground was large.
I remember how trees were planted there ... this is generally a song, I have never seen anything like this before, so that I had to hammer a hole for planting with crowbars for a couple of days !!!

Balkhash is already bending. The boundaries of salt water are shifting. Well, and yes, if you want to catch fish, go to Balkhash for 500 km. But there were times when they normally caught on Kapchagai.

[LiSiCyn]

They say they have dirtied the reservoir. Recently there was a story on the "box" ... In Kapchagai they caught a Thorn (sturgeon), they considered it already extinct. In the mid-80s, the plan was set for fishermen to catch sturgeon. I really didn't catch it myself. But my uncle often brought it. From Ili and Kapchagai. And the catfish for ~ 200-250 kg, I helped to pull it out myself ... Well, how I helped, I was sick, supported ... And now, friends who stayed, they say poop swims near the shore. I myself have not been there for 20 years. But, I really want to visit.

[LiSiCyn]

Ah, I forgot ... In Kapchagai there was a shrimp (freshwater), healthy no worse than in shops they sell. And we, fools, threw out ... We did not know that it is possible to eat.

Who knows what the cost of the S-400 for the Russian army?

Author!! And another photo was not found on the network ??? And we are talking about some kind of radar station "Balkhash". Such a radar has never existed. There was a SEPARATE RADIOTECHNICAL UNIT (OS-2) "Balkhash-9". The EMNIP photo shows the transmitting position of the Daryal-U radar. But in Sary-Shagan it was dismantled back in 2011. The receiver burned down in 2004 and collapsed in 2010.
The agreement was on the use of the radar "Dnepr"

[Sochi]

Kazakhs ... will pull away the khan to the object. The ball is such a urban settlement Chagan (now Shagan), an airfield of strategists near Semipalatinsk (now Semey) ... We left, stop by, live, all the infrastructure is left. Dismantled bricks of residential buildings, a school, GDO. The airfield is abandoned.

[Zomanus]

Well, right, otherwise the FIG knows what to expect from the Kazakhs in case of war.
Yes, and this node was outdated, most likely. And to modernize is the same as doing a repair in a rented apartment. Still not yours.
