Success on the ground of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces is ensured by the actual control of the airspace in Karabakh

119

The Azerbaijani army continues to make attempts to move towards the so-called Lachin corridor - a road connecting Armenia with the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic through Berdzor (Lachin). Recently, the Azerbaijani side has intensified shelling of Armenian positions with the use of artillery, both cannon and reactive.

At the same time, it is obvious that a special role in reconnaissance of the positions of the NKR troops is played by Drones armed forces of Azerbaijan. With their help, in addition to reconnaissance, the firing on enemy positions is also adjusted.



The Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense is showing another video, where the results of the strikes were filmed using a drone:


From this video it becomes clear that in the conflict zone of the NKR there is a situation when the ground forces are practically deprived of not only air support, but also are not provided with means of suppressing the activity of drones. What this leads to can be seen in the presented frames.


Both single and group targets are destroyed. At the same time, the destruction is carried out with high efficiency at night, which makes it extremely difficult to regroup Armenian forces and assets in the conflict zone. In fact, any movement is monitored from the air, data is transmitted to the command center, followed by strikes, leading to the destruction of both military equipment and personnel in well-equipped positions.

Actual control of the airspace in the conflict zone in Karabakh ensures success for the Azerbaijani troops on the ground. This is clearly demonstrated in the above videos of the Azerbaijani military department.

          Based on the results of this war, conclusions will be drawn about the need to saturate the troops with means of combating numerous drones.
          I dare to offer my purely civilian IMHO. Means of struggle should be relatively cheap and they should be enough to repel multiple means of attack (a flock of kamikaze drones, for example).
          On the march, the military column, the KVM, should be covered by helicopters. At positions, in addition to the existing air defense, it was possible to reactivate large-caliber anti-aircraft guns (100-130 mm) from storage. Develop a shrapnel charge with a very large number of damaging elements. As a radar, use a helicopter-type tethered drone or a quadrocopter, powered by a cable, capable of hovering for days at an altitude of 200 meters. It will become possible to reach enemy drones by sea of ​​shrapnel for 30-40 km in range and up to 10 km in height, not taking into account the limited stock of Shell missiles. Torov and Bukov.

            Sergey32 - conclusions have already been made in the Ministry of Defense, they have already conducted several exercises where our military air defense worked on drones and barrage of ammunition, the role of which was played by light and small-sized target drones. Moreover, they create special light missiles against such targets!

                  Autogyro over the battlefield is dangerous. Because the enemy can deploy echeloned air defense in the battle zone, the crown of which will be patrolling fighters covering the swarm /// or several units of larger drones ///. For them, watchmen /// or paragliders with snipers))) /// will be prey.
                  P.S. But it seems to me that it is possible to create an acceptable means of defense for the tactical echelon.
                  It should be combined. In the air, reconnaissance complexes identify the mobile headquarters of drones and merge their coordinates to artillerymen, missilemen and strike aircraft. Fighters intercept drones on distant approaches, and the tactical ground link must have equipment such as tank KAZs in its equipment. After all, that's the deal. We noticed that in all the combat episodes presented by the Azerbaijani side in these videos from Yu-tube, the following happens: seconds before the explosion, the personnel notices the ammunition directed at them and tries to hide. The electronics of such a KAZ can become “the last and very effective line of defense against“ goodies from the sky. ”This is not even touching on the means of active camouflage and much more.
                  At the dawn of the 20th century, their Majesties' machine guns suddenly appeared on the scene of the Olympus of war, but now is the 21st century. And drone strikes are getting harder and angrier.

                    A gyroplane can be viewed as a means in this situation, when there is nothing at hand, without a future perspective.
                    Control headquarters may not be easy to spot. They can be located in the basement of some five-story building, and communication is transmitted via a cable to the antenna, which in turn may not be nearby.

            The Armenians seemed to have anti-aircraft guns, they were even captured in a combat position. Only it is not very clear who they were shooting at. Guidance is not visible, possibly as anti-tank. And with your proposal, not everything is so simple ... If this works out, then it is not expensive, which means that the military-industrial complex does not attract. Who will hunchback for a small share?

            At such distances, given the density of dispersion, you need tons of metal per shot. And guns of this caliber are clumsy for drones. Helicopters from drones are also unlikely to save, rather they themselves will become targets

              Guns of this caliber were developed and produced in the 40-50s to combat first-generation jet aircraft. A cheap drone is quite tough for them. Give them normal target designation and fulfill their task. For poor countries like Armenia, it is quite normal. And LDNR, given that the Armed Forces of Ukraine is mastering Bayraktary, will also do.

                To be honest, I do not know in detail directly about the fight against jet aircraft using large-caliber anti-aircraft guns. Throw off the source if you know. hi As far as I know, the targets of such weapons were strategic bombers and large, high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft. They were just non-reactive.

                PS I found, about Soviet large anti-aircraft guns, only the conclusion that their use is appropriate at altitudes above 3000 m, and drones fly below. So a large caliber is hardly useful here.

                          It is more suitable for border protection. than for a battlefield of the Karabakh type. Drones hunt ground vehicles, helicopters hunt drones. And the enemy's air defense (which was not in the Israeli case) was behind those helicopters. I think the helicopters will end first.

                          Frets. And the enemy drones in the same beginning will similarly demolish the air defense of Israel (the Syrians did not have drones then?). And then helicopters on both sides will take out the drones without opposition. Then everything fits together.
                          Although, again, on the battlefield, even with a killed air defense, such a hunter-helicopter is vulnerable to a fighter with MANPADS, which was not there if Israel was guarding its border.

                          But there were no drones. You pull sentences out of context: either the enemy has only drones, then only air defense. I am explaining to you that when your enemy has both drones and air defense covering them in the complex, he will carry out your helicopter-hunter-for-drones (and at the same time the aircraft-hunter-for-his-helicopters), while his drones will take out your air defense. Mutually, in general, so helicopters are so-so protection from drones in real combat. The war will show.

Air Defense of the IRGC / SAA begins to engage in Jewish UAVs, Israeli combat aircraft rises into the air. Arab / Persian drones take out Jews' air defenses, Heil Avir finishes off air defenses and everything that flies from the Syrians.

      Whoever takes possession of the air will take possession of the land ... The history of wars with the use of aviation shows that with each new conflict, the conquest of air supremacy ensures victory on the ground becomes more important and more important. Remember the defeat of Tukhachevsky, Tukhachevsky himself made excuses, like the First Horse did not follow the order ... historians are developing their complex schemes, and the answer is simply Aviation. The First Cavalry near Lvov faced heavy cavalry losses from machine-gun fire from aircraft. Moreover, the planes were new, with experienced French and American pilots ... All movements of the troops of Tukhachevsky and Yegorov were controlled by Polish aviation. All tactical moves were quickly revealed. The cavalry, the main striking force at the time, especially suffered from air strikes. And the main reason for the catastrophe on the Vistula is the domination of Polish aviation. Pilsudski clearly knew both the location of our units and the number of troops, he had to make the right decisions and block the movement of Tukhachevsky's troops by the Entente aircraft. But in the memoirs of commanders you will not find recognition of the equal role of aviation with ground forces.

Stalin felt the power of aviation in these battles with the White Poles and then, being the leader of the country, nurtured aviation, pampered the aviation elite.

        nonsense of course to attack with cavalry in aviation. Indeed, quite recently, they also defeated the Austro-Hungarian cavalry using aviation at the Republic of Ingushetia. And here the machine guns are better, the speed and range are better.

      Well, you can't get away from the facts. In the NKR they were preparing for battles according to the tactics of previous years, but they received a surprise (and was it not?) From the air. But the information about the acquisition of UAVs by Azerbaijan from Turkey and Israel was even in open sources, but obviously they did not attach any importance to this and strenuously buried in anticipation of head-on attacks.

      The fault is the Armenians who do not live in Armenia. Because of them, the voi will rise up about the alleged genocide and therefore Turkey does not open the border. Because of them, they do not leave Karabagh, they say, we will organize a facility for you to protect their supposedly native land - they raise their spirits. Because of them, the people are poor and they are in France, in the United States in other countries, they send different letters, arrange rallies. And the bandy people hope that the "magic stick" will work. Put up couple. The couple liberate Karabag. To put up with Turkey. The border will open, opportunities will appear - different flows, development in the energy sector, tourism, trade. One way or another, the Armenians and I lived for a very long time and amicably. During the Ottoman Empire they were called Milleti Sadika / Faithful People.

      Air superiority, photo reconnaissance and pinpoint strikes were demonstrated back in World War II.
      The Germans used "frames" for photographic reconnaissance.
      Dive bombers for inflicting point strikes.
      Guided loitering bombs.
      Cruise missiles.
      At the moment, there has been a minimization and automation of shock and reconnaissance means.

      The current conflict gave a powerful impetus for the development of such systems in a complex.

At the beginning, An-2 was launched in an unmanned version, enemy air defenses were shot down, they reported about downed dryers and phantoms. We spent the ammunition of expensive anti-aircraft missiles, opened the air defense system. Then the positions of the air defense missile system were attacked by shock drones. Thus, having destroyed the NKR air defense, with the help of reconnaissance drones, they directed long-range artillery and shock drones at the detected land defense targets and armored vehicles, "carefully" hidden in beautifully designed caponiers.

      Based on the results of this war, conclusions will be drawn about the need to saturate the troops with means of combating numerous drones.
      I dare to offer my purely civilian IMHO. Means of struggle should be relatively cheap and they should be enough to repel multiple means of attack (a flock of kamikaze drones, for example).
      On the march, the military column, the KVM, should be covered by helicopters. At positions, in addition to the existing air defense, it was possible to reactivate large-caliber anti-aircraft guns (100-130 mm) from storage. Develop a shrapnel charge with a very large number of damaging elements. As a radar, use a helicopter-type tethered drone or a quadrocopter, powered by a cable, capable of hovering for days at an altitude of 200 meters. It will become possible to reach enemy drones by sea of ​​shrapnel for 30-40 km in range and up to 10 km in height, not taking into account the limited stock of Shell missiles. Torov and Bukov.


      We can create a similar system in the 57mm caliber.

      But also on an inexpensive wheeled chassis, for example, we already have a Ural developed for 120mm ACS Phlox:

      An optoelectronic locator with a laser rangefinder and projectiles with a programmable fuse, we also have that. Two types of projectiles and double power supply for the gun, since it can fight not only with UAVs, which do not need a large fragment of a large mass, but on the contrary, it is more desirable, with an equal mass of a projectile, to have a larger number of fragments to increase the likelihood of defeat, but on the other hand, the weapon is able to fight with targets like a helicopter, light attack aircraft.

      It is quite possible that if our military-industrial complex gets scratched, we will see something similar following the results of this war.

      In most posts against modern drones, they suggest using either various kinds of air defense systems or aviation or other interceptor drones. It was also proposed to take the direction finding of the control center of the drone and destroy it, which is either extremely expensive or ineffective. Let me give you an alternative point of view (as an idea for solving the problem). Judging by the publications on the Web, a compact VSat terminal is used in Bayraktar to transmit video and control channels. If you interrupt the video from the device to the control point, then target designation and the use of ammunition of the drone itself will be impossible (an obvious fact), since he does not work on goals on his own. Most likely, the device will return to the base in automatic mode. Now, if you google how VSat works, it becomes clear that they transmit a signal through one of the geostationary satellites of the Intelsat system. Moreover (since the video goes continuously), the uplink signal containing the video is also continuous. The drone's antenna is compact and its directional pattern is quite wide. Option 1: It is enough to be ABOVE the drone (there are many options, ranging from a geodesic ball to a high-altitude drone). Next, we find the radiation frequency (repeater in the satellite) that the drone uses on the uplink. Repeater bandwidth 25-50 MHz (typical). Next, we turn on the interference towards the satellite at this frequency, using a powerful signal generator (there are many of them for such a narrow band). And the operator will lose, at least, the video from the drone, and as a maximum, also the responses to control commands. Option 2: Slightly more difficult and not entirely point-to-point (since all VSat terminals in the sector will turn off): Turn on powerful interference on the Down line in the direction of the drone at the frequency of the VSat terminal control channel (this channel is one for all stations in the beam area). The drone terminal is guaranteed to lose contact with the operator. Such equipment is quite affordable and costs two orders of magnitude cheaper than even one air defense missile. And most importantly - no consumables other than energy. And you can block the whole flock of drones (not autonomous, of course) in seconds. I want to add that there is a variant of satellite terminals where the Iridium network is used (and these are not geostationary satellites, but low-flying satellites), here it is somewhat more difficult, since it is necessary to monitor the position of all Iridium satellites in the zone and the antenna that forms the interference must accompany the satellite in order to the suppression signal strength did not drop. But there are also many options here and all are affordable. Now the bottom line. Anything above can be done by any advanced satellite communications enthusiast. And if you use government opportunities, it is even easier - any country has access to Iridium ephemeris data and control channel data. It's just that manufacturers of air defense systems, tanks, etc. very nice lobby as all this must be sold at a high price and made a profit. Nobody needs cheap solutions, and especially without expensive "consumables".

      We realized this long ago, the main thing is that high ranks in the Ministry of Defense creak their brains and draw conclusions

      No patriotism, heroism and other ism will not help against that before reasoning about how the Russian Ministry of Defense should react, the best air defense means are our tanks on enemy airfields.
      The drone control center is a thing that emits radio frequency for hundreds of kilometers. So they should be destroyed first.

      Azerbaijan has good information support, wherever you look, everywhere their videos .. But this is only the outer shell. Aliyev will have serious problems, Erdogan will frame him soon.
      Armenia is a small but very tricky country .. laughing Russia is silent and concentrates. wink

        Perhaps, but there will also be problems in Krasnodar and Sochi, where crowds of angry Armenians from Armenia will appear, especially from the top with money. And Erdogan will not substitute Aliyev - we are welded together by pipeline and gas pipeline.

        Usually a small but cunning country is called a completely different country.

      The most amazing thing in this story after the routings, rubbing, blockades, censure of neighbors and finally the 4th resolution of the UN Security Council, not a single Armenian comes to mind that in Soviet times this issue has already found its solution to the NKAO as part of the Azerbaijan SSR. If I say this is pride, then I do not agree, because we are all witnesses that the Armenians are now walking around the world and begging them to save, it turns out they are not proud. It turns out a very strange picture, the world does not want to agree with ethnic cleansing and occupation under the pretext of the right of the people to the very definition, if we take into account the fact that in many countries Armenians living comactly, having received a precedent, will also self-determine, for example, in California or somewhere near Marseilles, at worst end in Krasnodar or Stavrapol

      hello.
      Dumayu, what uzhe decided i zapustili.
      "Derivacia PVO" s 57 mm pushkou.

      She's in my video post. But a tracked chassis is already expensive. The UAV is still relatively not that expensive, and it must also be destroyed effectively from an economic point of view. The wheeled chassis will be cheaper.

      They have been there for a long time, even from Pashinyan they started to run away and invested money ahead of time - Krasnodar and Stavropol Territories, Western Ukraine.
