"Not paid attention to camouflage": experts called the mistake of the Armenian troops, leading to the success of the UAV of the Azerbaijani army

168

Military experts discuss new cadres of the Azerbaijani armed forces, which show the striking of enemy positions. These shots make it possible to answer the question of what is one of the reasons that the Armenian troops are suffering significant losses precisely from aviation (unmanned).

At the same time, in the armed forces of Azerbaijan themselves they say that they continue to use Drones Turkish production. We are talking about such UAVs as Bayraktar.



The attention of experts is drawn to the following fact: for the sixth day now, the newly erupted conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh has been going on, and the Armenian side is well aware of the threat from the air (suffering significant losses precisely from the use of shock drones), but the positions of the Armenian side still remain without any effective camouflage. This is a big mistake, leading to extremely negative consequences for the Armenian troops.

On the one hand, the military equipment of the Armenian troops is in special trenches. But this allows you to hide it, perhaps, from a ground observer. For drones of the Azerbaijani armed forces, positions remain at a glance.


By the way, technique is not always dug in. For obvious reasons, this is technically difficult to do in mountainous areas. But if the same army trucks, Tanks, anti-aircraft missile systems occupy long-term positions just by the side of the road, counting on the "folds of the terrain", then, again, these "folds" do not play any significant role for drones. The appearance of large concentrations of Armenian military personnel in open areas of the terrain also looks like an unacceptable tactic when taking into account the work of unmanned aviation in Azerbaijan, both reconnaissance and strike.



The complete absence of anti-aircraft camouflage of equipment and positions could still be explained in the first days of the flared up conflict, but not in the case when battles and shelling have been going on for almost a week. The only explanation is that the troops are operating in a time pressure mode, and it may be useless to engage in camouflage at a time when the enemy has probably managed to draw up maps of all the main positions.

      Looking at how the Armenians are fighting, the feeling is that they have no idea at all about camouflage, battle tactics, strategy, etc. ... a few days ago, the commander of the Armenian art in the video showed how he put the art ... something that didn't smell like disguise, just take it and cover it in a crowd easily and simply.

        All the problems stem from the fact that there is nothing to withstand the UAV, hence most of the losses. They detect targets, direct arto at them, or attack themselves. And masking will not help here, you can still see everything in the thermal imager. An effective means is to detect the signal of the UAV operators and strike at them, but they do not have such technologies.

          Well, for example, in Syria, the Turks carried out equipment that was not protected by any air defense at all. Then the air defense started working and the tale of the omnipotent drones ended abruptly. Moreover, the Syrians used very limited forces, 4 Armor and 4 Buka, as they said in our Ministry of Defense. Beeches carried bayraktars, and their armor covered them from rockets and missiles launched against them. Completely balanced air defense system. It is impossible to do this on the basis of the Wasps and Kroogi that the Karabakh people have. With disguise, too, everything is sad.

            Well, they have neither the one nor the other. More and less modern air defense is being drawn to the capital and large industrial facilities. And the antediluvian Wasps, small-sized targets simply do not see, or cannot reach in height / range.

                I wonder why he needs a decommissioned technique, to disassemble it as donors for his own? so there the resource is also worked out, a dubious acquisition, it would be better to buy 5 pieces of shells, or better tori)))

                  SAM "Tor" is a very complex and expensive complex that requires constant qualified maintenance and support by the manufacturer's specialists. Otherwise, it is practically impossible to maintain the systems available in the troops in working order for a long period of time. There are not so many "tori" in the Russian army. The shell does not seem to be expensive, but it is needed as part of a battery, 4-6 pieces, this is already a significant amount. "God is always on the side of the big battalions" p.

          Figase! There is a S-300, there is no electronic warfare at all ... And in general,
          Buy an industrial "multilock" to determine the frequencies of the "emitting means" of the UAV, bring everything transmitting on the air at similar frequencies and stupidly turn on the transmission when a signal appears on the multilock screen. The transmitters on the UAV are weak - you don't need to clog the signal a lot.

            Here, plywood models of the Wasp are also used, etc. only these are half measures. Arta should shoot her, you can't disguise her, the supply vehicles, rotation, will also be under attack. There can be no question of any attack or counterattack, just sitting in the trenches, in general, a game with only one goal.

                half of the USSR army was pulled to the border and allowed to encircle

                And the other half (the army of the internal districts) did not have time to reach the border and stretched out in several "waves" in echelons throughout the country. If the two halves were together, it would be a completely different conversation. The same Zhukov analyzes this situation in his memoirs. From his point of view, the first half should have been immediately assigned to the line, to which the second half would have had time. And even then give battle. But this meant leaving a significant part of the territory of the USSR without a fight, which politically no one dared to do. As a result, we were beaten in parts, as the troops entered the battle as they arrived.
                Thus, it was not a miscalculation in the strategy (they lined up and allowed to surround, as you say, without taking into account experience), but there was a banal lack of time (to gather the troops into a fist). A miscalculation in logistics, in operational art, in the estimation of the time of the attack, if you will. But not in strategy.

            Both in Syria and Libya, the UAVs destroyed a bunch of equipment and, most importantly, stopped the offensive, that is, they completed their task, completely replacing the attack aircraft. Yes, they were used before, but now they are a real flock. Several reconnaissance, shock, plus kamikaze. Yes, they even had their own UAVs in the frame when they worked on targets. And they also used something new in the form of unmanned An2 to detect air defense.

                  Show me at least one mention of such capabilities in Bayraktar TB2. And in the meantime, look at its chassis and tell me where you see an autonomous launch, even in theory. Your argument about moment 15 is stupidity. The fact that there were such samples does not mean that the airfields were not used for all 15 minutes.

          Yes, it is more difficult to build such shelters in mountainous areas, but this is by no means impossible. Moreover, the Armenians had many years to prepare.

        they have no idea about camouflage, combat tactics, strategy, etc.

        Nonsense. This is a fight where boxers are forced to fight with pillows while standing on one leg. It has nothing to do with tactics, let alone a strategy. Both sides are bound by restrictions, cannot strike at the entire depth of the front (200 km), the second lines of defense, reserves, communications remain untouched. There is not even the ability to choose the direction of the strike. Fight here, don't fight here, airfields, don't touch the railway nodes.
        So with these UAVs - that there were no spotters and scouts in the domestic one? Or bastards did not manage at first? Where are the fighters? They sit at home. You can't use fists, only pillows and on one leg.

              And it is simply impossible to observe over a large area in the IR range -
              it is necessary to conduct a narrow scan search, which is difficult and dangerous.
              In addition, from an altitude of 7-8 km (there is a boundary of a safe altitude) such a search is already very difficult, especially in cloudy weather. In addition, there is also a relief, which also interferes.
              therefore, sudden movements at night multiply the time for a possible air attack. I don't know how it is with the jungle, but I'm sure that most UAVs do not have thermal imagers.

The transmitters on the UAV are weak - you don't need to clog the signal a lot.

      There are no frequencies for a long time. The signal is transmitted over the entire spectrum, when the frequency is clogged, it switches to another automatically. And there is also digital decoding, that is, when interference occurs, only the strobes of the main signal are taken into account.

          In a couple of days, the Armenian army may begin to experience serious problems
          It may crumble
          Air and fire superiority of the enemy is not a joke!

        Yeah, we are always like that - first we crush with quantity, then we will certainly cover those who are crushed with atomic weapons, so that we are absolutely certain. So it was during the defense of Donbass (by the way, how is your area after nuclear strikes - still fonite?) - it was stupid for the number, in order to crush them, we sent whole football teams there, remember? So it was in Syria - for each fighter, a hundred of ours, and then they polished everything with a nuclear bomb.

The number of devices, their price and specialization is the next question .. And we are funny for ten years We cannot accept airplanes from the circle of young aircraft modelers into service ...

          And what, you will accelerate the Su-30 semi-toy drones in the sky? spend rockets on them? UAVs have already occupied their niche on the battlefield .. Piloted attack aircraft and small, light toys are incomparable in price ... the same Wasp can probably shoot down a Su25 without any problems, aiming at prey on the ground .., but a low-flying small drone turned out to be problematic .. The same in the case of adjusting the artillery fire .. Do we have an air reconnaissance platoon with gunner drones assigned to each artillery battery? And the artillery can work directly and immediately on these coordinates? I doubt very much .. The fact that we will have "Hunter" is good .. But very, very expensive. And not at all for tactical tasks on the battlefield, apparently .. And look how much blood is drunk by homemade and essentially simple UAVs .. ATGM with wings ... and a motor from an aircraft model ... Cheap and very angry.

      The question should be "shirsh" - the RF Armed Forces have enough military air defense assets to cover the forward positions of the troops from UAV attacks in the event of an armed conflict of the same permissible intensity as in Transcaucasia?

      Today (October 1), a Russian-made Armenian electronic warfare (EW) kit "Repellent-1 (Repełent-1)" became a victim of an Azerbaijani ammunition (drone-kamikaze).

      "Repellent-1" is an anti-unmanned aerial vehicle system developed by the Moscow Scientific and Technical Center for Electronic Warfare (moskiewskie Centrum Naukowo-Techniczne Wojny Elektronicznej) to ignite and destroy small drones, especially from the so-called. swarms.

      The system was created to neutralize drones from a distance of up to 30 kilometers day and night in any atmospheric conditions, the method is to disrupt radio control and jam the GPS satellite navigation sensor. The system is deployed on a MAZ-6317 truck to protect a large number of stationary military installations and units on the front line. The operator's cabin is protected from small arms bullets.

      The system was put into operation at the end of 2016, the initial combat readiness was announced by the RF Armed Forces in 2017. Armenia received these stations as part of a 15-year US $ 100 million loan from Russia in 2017.
