In the modern world, interest in high-precision arms consistently high. At the same time, the positions of Russia and the United States are strong on the market of operational-tactical missile systems. Both countries have Iskander-E and MGM-140 ATACMS systems in their military export portfolios. Israel is ready to compete with the two countries, in which Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI) has developed its own operational-tactical missile system LORA.

Interest in such weapons has increased against the backdrop of another aggravation of the Karabakh conflict between Azerbaijan and the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh, which is supported by Armenia. The Armenian army is armed with Russian Iskander-E complexes. The Azerbaijani army is armed with Israeli LORA complexes. It is believed that it was Azerbaijan that became the first foreign customer of these OTRK. At the same time, the complex has already been used in combat conditions. It is believed that this particular complex was used on October 2, 2020 to destroy the road bridge across the Akari River, connecting the territory of Armenia with Nagorno-Karabakh.



It is worth noting that during the offensive operation launched at the end of September 2020, Baku is actively using all types of weapons at its disposal: numerous MLRS systems, the Israeli LORA OTRK, Israeli and Turkish Drones, the Russian heavy flamethrower system TOS-1A Solntsepek and other types of military equipment.

Development of OTRK LORA


Operational-tactical missile systems are modern high-precision weapons that can hit important targets in the operational rear of the enemy. These complexes are suitable for engaging both relatively small and area targets in the depth of the operational formation of enemy troops, usually at a distance of up to 500 km. Traditional targets for OTRK are command posts and communication centers, airfields, positions of air defense systems, military bases, columns of military equipment on the march or in places of concentration, important infrastructure facilities (for example, bridges, warehouses).

Israel, which is all modern history of its existence is located in the ring of unfriendly Arab countries, was also interested in the possession of such weapons of its own production. Fortunately, OTRKs can play the role of a deterrent and are in demand on the international arms market, which is also very important. Possessing a developed defense industry, Israel began developing its own operational-tactical missile system in the early 2000s.

The first media reports about the new Israeli development appeared at the end of 2003. Then India showed interest in the new rocket. Moreover, the development was so secret at that time that the official representatives of the Israeli Ministry of Defense, after publishing materials in the press about India's interest in the new Israeli complex, denied the very existence of the missile.

It is known that successful tests of the new missile were carried out in March 2004 in the Mediterranean Sea, after which Israel stepped up its attempts to sell the new product on the international market. In 2007, a full-fledged debut of a solid-propellant rocket took place at the international Paris air show, which is held at Le Bourget airport, 12 kilometers from the French capital. The new complex was officially adopted by the Israeli army in 2011, while it was the Israelis who for a long time remained the only operator of the OTRK, until in 2018 the first complexes were transferred to Azerbaijan, which held an open presentation of new products.

Among other things, Azerbaijan then received the Belarusian MLRS "Polonez". This Belarusian complex, using Chinese missiles, in some configurations comes close in its capabilities to modern OTRK both in missile launch range and in the mass of warheads used. It is noteworthy that the novelties were demonstrated by Azerbaijan in June 2018 at one military base, as noted in the media, during the opening of a new unit of the missile forces of the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry by President Ilham Aliyev. Both novelties presented at that time were based on a wheeled chassis of Belarusian production: types MZKT and MAZ.

What is known about the LORA complex?


The Israeli LORA tactical missile system is based on the eponymous single-stage solid-propellant ballistic missile. The abbreviation itself stands for Long-Range Artillery Missile. The complex was originally designed for use in both land and sea deployment options. The last tests of the complex from an offshore platform with shooting at small-sized floating targets were carried out quite recently, on June 2, 2020. During the tests, two missiles were launched at a range of 90 and 400 kilometers. Both missiles successfully hit the floating target shields, and the tests themselves were deemed successful.

According to IAI specialists, LORA missiles deployed on mobile or offshore platforms are capable of effectively hitting targets located deep in enemy territory, including strategically important targets. The missile is capable of hitting not only stationary but also maneuvering targets. As noted on the manufacturer's website, missiles can be launched in a matter of minutes, even from unprepared positions. At the same time, any target, the location of which is known and which is within the reach of the missile, can be attacked and destroyed in less than 10 minutes from the moment the decision was made to launch.

The LORA rocket itself is shipped and stored in an airtight transport and launch container (TPK), which ensures low maintenance costs. The shelf life of the rocket in the field without the need for preventive maintenance is 7 years. The complex itself is a package of four TPK. Such a package of four integrated transport and launch containers can be easily stowed on any 16-ton platform truck. In particular, the LORA complexes supplied to Azerbaijan are based on the chassis of the Belarusian MZKT. When the complex is located at sea, it can be installed directly on the deck of the ship.

According to information on the website of the Israel Aircraft Industries, LORA missiles are able to hit targets at a distance of 90 to 430 kilometers. The manufacturer declared the following characteristics of the rocket: diameter - 625 mm, length - 5,2 meters, weight - 1600 kg. The rocket is equipped with a single-stage solid-propellant rocket engine. It is emphasized that the entire electronic filling of the rocket is presented on solid-state components, the rudder drives are electric (the rocket has no hydraulics and hydraulic elements).

The rocket is equipped with an inertial navigation system for targeting, which is combined with GPS navigation. The circular probable deflection of the missile declared by the manufacturer does not exceed 10 meters within the effective range. It is known that the missile can be equipped with two types of warheads - high-explosive fragmentation and penetrating. The manufacturer does not disclose the mass of the missile warhead, but in open sources you can find information that at least three different warheads weighing 240, 400-440 and 600 kg are available. Depending on the used warhead, the maximum range of the missile also changes.

The manufacturer sees the standard form of the LORA operational-tactical missile complex battery as follows: a battery command post, 4 launchers on a wheeled or tracked chassis (4 missiles in a TPK on each), 4 transport-loading vehicles (4 missiles in a TPK on each) ...

      So it is not intended against infrastructure objects. Like Iskander. Their task is to hit the headquarters, air defense positions, artillery, MLRS, etc. On targets, hitting which from the KVO 10 meters is not critical.

        Why not. If they had hit a little more accurately, they would have ruined the bridge too.
        We could have shied another one, but apparently it was enough so that the armored vehicles would not walk across the bridge.

                  1. LAURA in a small bridge can miss. Delilah and Spice enter the window.
                  2. LORA will not miss the presidential palace just as he will not miss the nuclear power plant.
                  3. Was the task to destroy the bridge and leave thousands of refugees, Armenian refugees, on the territory of Azerbaijan. The rocket hit the bridge.

                    If the photographs of the consequences from the distance, then I am very surprised by such destruction, it turns out that Delilah has several types of warheads for different purposes, otherwise we would not have seen clearly photographs of the destroyed shells where you can still distinguish the antennas and launch containers of the shells, in case the shell was hit the fact that bridges from them and dust would not remain.

                        I disagree, the reality is
                        Laura is the best thing in Azerbaijan's arsenal.
                        Aviation will not fly close to the bridge.
                        Drones do not have ammunition in their arsenal to destroy the bridge.
                        it is better not to write about cannon artillery and MLRS.
                        from the front line to the bridge is more than 70 km, so there is nothing better than Laura in Azerbaijan's arsenal that could be used.

                        Azerbaijan's arsenal has smaller-caliber precision missiles, which are sufficient for such a bridge. However, it seems to me they did not want to destroy the bridge, otherwise the blow would be repeated. At least the same LAURES.

                    And I also thought, why blow up the bridge, if we want them to free NK, and we ourselves blow up almost the only way out. After looking at the video, I understand that they wanted to damage the bridge, "partially"so that they think that they have missed now, and then no, and we will stay here, so we will quickly leave.

So that was not the plan. If only it was in the plan, then they would have launched a couple of three laura, and much more.

        "So it is not intended against infrastructure facilities. Just like Iskander. Their task is to hit headquarters, air defense positions, artillery, MLRS, etc. On targets, hitting which from the KVO 10 meters is not critical."
        Fiery Kitty, do not forget about the best friend of Russia and all Orthodox Christians in the world, Sasha Lukashenko (Armenians, Christians) .And President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev was photographed against the background of ... Belarusian MAZ tractors, whose cargo area was crowned with launch containers with Israeli missiles ... The same vehicles were found in the use of IAI Harop kamikaze drones during the repeated study of Azerbaijani military equipment. Whether these vehicles were supplied specifically for missiles and drones is unknown, but such a coincidence makes one wonder whether the Belarusian factories received a technical assignment for the production of special versions of trucks or not.
        This is our beloved Lukashenka. And here are the guys from the Motherland of Christ:
        The cost of one LORA complex with missiles, according to foreign estimates, could be from $ 100 to $ 150 million. In addition, Azerbaijan could purchase up to 50 such missiles at a price of $ 2020 million per unit. This contract could become an ordinary event in the arms export, if not for one small event. Tests of the LORA missile (to be precise, just shooting at a target) Israel conducted in June XNUMX - exactly a couple of months before the start of the escalation of the conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh. They did not hide the purpose of the shooting: "demonstration of the complex's capabilities to potential customers.

          Neither Laura nor Iskander can shoot at moving targets. Both missiles
          inertial guidance, GPS or GLONASS, plus correction in the last couple of seconds.
          Iskander has a radar in the GOS, Laura has an IR TV camera.

              Why pick information out of the nose or from somewhere else when there is enough information about this test
              For YOU personally.
              The launches were carried out from a civilian vessel in the Mediterranean.
              The tests were carried out on the open sea and, among other things, demonstrated the capabilities of the complex to customers. Who these clients are is not reported,
              In addition to missiles and launchers, the complex includes a command and control system and ground (or sea) auxiliary equipment (ground / marine support system).
              The tests were carried out according to a full operational scenario and within their framework, the missile's maneuvering, attack and accuracy capabilities were tested, as well as various developments and technological improvements carried out by the company's team of engineers.
              LORA missiles are placed in a transport and launch container, which can be stored without maintenance for up to 7 years. The complex is also being developed in a marine version. In this case, the missiles can be placed in a standard sea transport container of four ammunition.
              It is indicated that due to the coronavirus, the tests were carried out by a small team that controlled the processes remotely, and also worked in compliance with the "capsule format".
              In conclusion
              The successful test was another good news for the citizens of Israel and bad news for Israel's enemies. "

      There is a video of the hit, the rocket hits the very edge of the bridge (centimeters), and explodes into the river. The bridge is very narrow, if you take 4-5 m for each lane, then let's say it turns out to be 8-10 m. According to the video, you can say the deviation from the center is 3-4 m. Considering the launch for several hundred kilometers, the rocket is super in the literal sense.

    In the summer of 2018, the Armenian press wrote:
    “It is in this sense that the supply of such equipment by both Belarus (presumably 10 Polonez units) and Russia (18 Smerchi units were supplied) is a threat to the civilian population of Armenia and the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. In response, Armenia also acquired heavy MLRS, but their number is still noticeably lagging behind - there are 4-8 Chinese WM-80, and 8-12 Russian MLRS "Smerch", while Azerbaijan has 30 "Smerchi", 10 "Polonez" and 21 units of Chinese -Turkish systems T-300 Kasirga.

        It is interesting that the exact consumption of LORA missiles for the entire period of aggravation of the conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh is currently unknown. Azerbaijan remains silent and does not cover the topic of the world's first application of the Israeli OTRK on a civilian object. And probably not going to do it in the future. However, the nature of the destruction of cities both in Nagorno-Karabakh and beyond suggests that the Azerbaijani military could have used almost the entire arsenal, including Israeli missiles, for shelling. Another fact speaks in favor of this version.

        Early in the morning on October 4, a transport Boeing 747 of the Azerbaijani cargo airline Silk Way West Airlines arrived in Baku from Israel. It is still difficult to say what was on board, but experts suggest that a special flight to Baku could have delivered both missiles for the LORA complex and a new batch of cluster munitions for the Israeli LAR-160 multiple launch rocket system, which the Azerbaijani army is actively using in the battles for Nagorno-Karabakh.
        It is even more interesting, WHO controls this complex technique, because there was NO time to train tomato experts and peach speculators.

        Our product has a flight range from any warhead that exceeds the range of Israeli missiles.
        By the way, this is a typical advertising gimmick of foreign arms manufacturers - they always indicate the maximum characteristics, and when you start to figure it out, there are restrictions or reservations.

This system is a versatile solid-propellant medium-range ballistic missile, land-based AUR (All-Up-Round), equipped with a block C-HGB in the execution of Block 1. Sandia National Laboratories originally developed both the main components of the LRHW system - C-HGB and AUR, but now the lead role in R&D for the system as a whole has been transferred to Lockheed Martin.

                In August 2019, the US Army awarded $ 347 million worth of contracts to Lockheed Martin for the development and creation of a prototype LRHW, and DTS in the amount of $ 352 million for the production of the first serial set of the C-HGB universal maneuverable gliding hypersonic warhead.

      The flight path is also important. If this is an economical ballistic option, then approaching a target from 60 to 90 degrees. will arise naturally.

    The rocket worked its money 100% - the accuracy is excellent. Another thing is the biting price, that's why they squeezed a couple of three, and bought Polonaises. If Laura and other Israeli systems were cheaper, Azerbaijan would not buy anything else, it would only take Israeli weapons. After the American and European, the Israeli will probably be the third at least.

    In the meantime, only Belarusians have MLRS Hurricane on a new chassis.

      Totally agree with you. Here, politics and economics must also be taken into account. Kamaz is located in Russia.

    Well, I'm here for both ours and yours laughing Both Russia and Azerbaijan are both countries, my Motherland is big and small. Azerbaijan assembles KAMAZ vehicles in Ganja, and gets MAZs ready-made - the former is more profitable, jobs, after all, plus a powerful repair base and a large number of specialists. And in the Russian Federation, by and large, there is only one hoodless hood, the Ural hoodless hood is not so widespread throughout the country.

    If you digress and just about the chassis and cars. Avtogaz's last truck, Sadko NEXT, is interesting, I liked it until I looked under it - it is still very damp and far from being used in the aircraft, but a replacement shishige is needed and it would turn out to be quite good, and by the way, also in the mountains. Variants Kamaz and Ural 4x4 are far away and not at all that.

    The war is only at the beginning, although many hope that the last defeat of the Armenian group will nevertheless lead to the withdrawal of the occupying forces. But judging by what the Armenians started with this smuggling of weapons in civilian airliners, it is unlikely that it will now end with negotiations in Moscow. And until the war is over, we will not know anything for sure and reliably, and it is not a fact that we will know everything completely. As for me, it was Laura, not Polonaise, but there is nothing else, Azerbaijan has only these two systems, Point-U does not count, it is not so accurate.

      In the United States, a person who accepts US citizenship pledges allegiance to the United States, undertakes to defend the United States with arms in hand, including from his historical homeland. You cannot serve two gods, the Russian Federation and Azerbaijan are different countries, so either you are a citizen of one country or another, with appropriate rights and obligations, everything else is from the evil one (the devil)

        At least all the main types of strategic weapons in Russia are still made on our base, and even in Soviet times it was generally forbidden to use foreign components in our developments. And as an exception, the use of some components was allowed, which subsequently had to be manufactured in our company, otherwise they would not have allocated money for R&D. So be careful with this statement - yet "not all polymers are pros..li" in Russia ....

      A long time ago I came across materials about the military-industrial complex of different countries of the world and their achievements in the development and production of full-cycle weapons, i.e. from idea to putting into service, which was carried out in the post-war years. These were materials from one serious organization, and the reliability there was at the level of 90-95%, so some people will understand where the legs grow from. And that's what amused me when the question concerned the Israeli military-industrial complex - it turns out there is only one product that was implemented in a full cycle, and it was called "Uzi - a family of submachine guns (PP), produced by the Israeli concern Israel Military Industries (IMI)". Everything else, including aviation programs, turned out to be only a copying or theft of other people's developments, and even then, in the end, they were never able to create something serious in aviation technology. I know how in the nineties-zero Israeli companies supplied satellite communication stations to Russia to work with our satellites, and whose they actually were, but I think who is in the subject and they themselves know all this very well. But advertising is the engine of trade, and it is not in vain that the citizens of Israel are so zealous here, praising what we could do thirty years ago with lower costs.

    Whatever one may say, the chassis is too heavy for the mountains, and even here it will not work everywhere.
    I can’t judge the difference in cost for the MO chassis KAMAZ and KZKT, but taking into account the automation in artillery, electromechanical or hydraulic drives, loading by changing factory containers / missile packages, reducing the number of crews, cheap maintenance and maintenance of standard and mass-produced chassis, it is POSSIBLE it would be advisable to have in service a sufficient number of universal launcher MLRS from 122 to 300mm caliber on a universal and lightweight chassis. As a prototype of SMERCH on the KAMAZ chassis developed by Perm.
    The Israelis just implemented such a system on a relatively light chassis. Amerikosov MLRS on a wheeled chassis, the same story as a Tornado on the KZKT chassis.

    I am writing for everyone who participates in this dispute.
    Recently, more and more articles have appeared on Israel's new modern weapons. And the comparison immediately begins, which is better and which is worse.
    But if you think a little and compare the tasks and goals facing the armies, then we understand Russia wants to be the first in everything, whether it turns out or not, I'm not going to analyze it. Israel has only one goal... Protection of the country from neighbors who, for 72 years, have officially announced plans and, in the past, in actions to destroy the country But today there are only three countries left. Iran tops this list, as well as Syria and Lebanon (or rather Hezbollah)
    And all the weapons that Israel produces are directed in the first place, in order to moderate their ardor of these willing
    And already in the second desire to sell.
    But Israel also possesses other weapons, so that everyone who has a desire to use force understands that it will not go unpunished.
    And now about the comparison of the two states of Russia and Israel, some in the heat of the dispute forget about it
    Russia area 17 sq. km² population 151 442 146 people
    Israel 20 km² population 770
    And you are trying to compare these two states.
    But, despite the huge difference in these indicators, Israel is included in the list of developed countries.
    GDP per capita Israel $ 42
    GDP per capita of Russia $ 28
    Please do not write about the crazy US aid, it is 1% of the annual budget, if it were not for the GDP per capita of $ 40
    Israel occupies one of the leading places in the world in the development of new technologies in electronics, including military ones, which is recognized by the Russian leadership.

    Sergei Shoigu and his Israeli colleague Benjamin Gantz discussed by phone prospects for military cooperation and the situation in the Middle East, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense.
    The negotiations confirmed the mutual attitude of the parties to FURTHER development of Russian-Israeli military cooperation"- said in a statement.

    So it is not intended against infrastructure objects. Like Iskander. Their task is to hit the headquarters, air defense positions, artillery, MLRS, etc. On targets, hitting which from the KVO 10 meters is not critical.

    Why not. If they had hit a little more accurately, they would have ruined the bridge too.
    We could have shied another one, but apparently it was enough so that the armored vehicles would not walk across the bridge.


    the bridge is old - 1970s, the state of the same - also survived earthquakes ... the formal carrying capacity was only 30 tons.
