The work of the testing laboratory, lost after the collapse of the USSR, has been restored in the Arctic

It became known about the next stage of Russia's restoration activities in the Arctic region. The Arctic is gaining more and more strategic weight, and therefore experts predict that it may soon become an arena of open geopolitical confrontation. Already, foreign "partners" are making attempts to question the ownership of the Northern Sea Route to Russia, in fact, offering to ignore the norms of international maritime law.

A new stage in the development of Russian infrastructure in the Arctic is the restoration of the work of a special testing laboratory by TsNIItochmash. We are talking about a special laboratory for testing grenade launcher and small-caliber (cannon) weapons, which operated during the years of the existence of the Soviet Union. The laboratory was truly unique. It worked out options for testing weapons in the harsh Arctic conditions.



The press service of TsNIITOCHMASH reports that the laboratory will be used to test grenade launcher systems and cannon weapons with a caliber of up to 30 mm. The main task is to check the efficiency of the complex at extremely low temperatures - down to minus 60 Celsius. The technology of such tests, fortunately, was not lost after the collapse of the USSR, but the laboratory itself in the early 1990s could not be preserved due to a total lack of funding. Now, restoration will help bring back a unique system and test technology to obtain effective weaponsthat can be used in extreme conditions.

Earlier, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation created several objects in the Arctic region, including the so-called "Arctic Trefoil". It is an autonomous military facility on the Alexandra Land Island, which is used to guard the northern borders of the Russian Federation.

    Russia is significantly ahead of the United States in the Arctic. This advantage must be increased. Moreover, through the North Pole is the shortest route to the United States.

        Definitely not Russians!
        Trust the shift worker with experience ...
        Russians cannot stand the cold at all.
        "Draft" is a purely Russian invention.
        The rest just don't pay.
        Even in warm countries, such as Spain, Russians cry from the cold in their winter ...

            The Ukrainians were expelled in our country back in the 90s, alas! laughing
            And, as far as I remember, in this respect they did not differ much from the Russians.
            And I say this because it is in nature.
            There are fewer Russians in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug than in Tyum. area.
            In the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District, less than in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug
            In fishing less than in the city.
            In the brigades of the PRS, no one often speaks Russian, except for the master ...
            And the master is not always good.
            That is why TB-schnicks and other office public have a lot of problems - they cannot explain themselves lol

                Let me tell you another secret - I compared it with the so-called "south of the Tyumen region", it is it that is usually understood as a region.
                Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug and Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District are independent in real life.
                But you can only compare them, the data is open and publicly known.

              For objectivity, if you went to Sochi, to construction sites - the picture is the same. Looks like the Russians can't stand the heat.
              Once I watched a showdown in St. Petersburg's markets on TV. Surprised, the head of the market (about which the program was) did not know the Russian language. Again, it’s probably not the climate behind the counters for the Russians.

      Moreover, through the North Pole is the shortest route to the United States.
      I will disappoint you - this is a shortcut for the SGA to strike at the densely populated part of Russia. And for Russia, the shortest path to the states is Chukotka and Kamchatka. In this regard, Russia is taking measures, especially in recent years, to strengthen the grouping of forces and means of air defense of the Northern Fleet.

    Well ... Well done!
    Today the Americans have really started to open their mouths to OUR wealth in the Arctic.
    The United States itself has NOT RATIFIED the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea!
    That is, from the point of view of AMERICAN laws, they can do everything they can capture and then protect.
    The exclusive economic zone is a part of the sea 200 nautical miles (370,4 kilometers) wide, measured from the low tide line or from the baseline for them - this is an area near their coastline that is forbidden to everyone, but the same area near a foreign coastline they may or may not recognize.

    in the near future it may become an arena of open geopolitical confrontation
    Why can it? It has already become an arena of open confrontation. Listen to the statements of American generals and politicians about "containing Russia in the Arctic", about American control over "open shipping", about claims to the Northern Sea Route. And Norway and Sweden suddenly began to urgently strengthen their armed forces to "contain" Russia and in this particular region. We are saved by the fact that we not only did not ditch our icebreaker fleet, but also build new ships, clean the Arctic from garbage, and create bases. Therefore, NATO (USA) is several steps ahead.

      We are saved by the fact that we not only did not ditch our icebreaker fleet, but also build new ships, cleaning the Arctic from garbage, create bases.


      I do not deny that the Soviet period of the development of the Arctic and Polar regions cannot be counted among environmentally friendly projects. The USSR received a huge benefit from the development of the Northbut, I will say more, that harmthat was inflicted on the Arctic and Polar regions by "pioneers" in uniform and without not subject to any calculation... That is why the information about those today's environmental disasters for which responsibility is truly ridiculous (in comparison with the benefits that the country, and not specific people, "got" from this) is perceived with bitterness.
      As for the cleaning of debris and the "cleaning chairman" ... There is an article like this:
      The military will clear the Arctic from garbage by 2020
      https://www.pnp.ru/economics/voennye-ochistyat-arktiku-ot-musora-do-2020-goda.html
      There is such data there:
      From 2015 to 2017, the forces of the Ministry of Defense in the Arctic zone collected and removed more than 16 thousand tons of scrap metal

      And literally below:
      Only in the coastal zone of the Arctic Ocean there are up to four million tons of industrial and construction waste, as well as up to 12 million iron barrels.

      It is easy to calculate that it will take at least 750 years to eliminate all the consequences at such a rate. This is what is depressing. In a country where more than half a million people "hover" in the zones in the literal and figurative sense, where about six million unemployed (including those who are not registered and are listed as "self-employed"), a couple of hundred military personnel are involved in cleaning (whose duty to work cleaners?) and several dozen pieces of equipment ...
      Something, but the restoration of the test laboratory just beyond the Arctic Circle, I'm just glad ... fellow

        And those who brought these millions of barrels there and threw them there - don't they depress?
        They have been dumping in the USSR for decades - this is normal.
        Now Russia is putting things in order - it's depressing.
        Familiar logic.

              Judging by the statements, you spent the entire period of the 90s in testicles and did not have time to notice that the structural enterprises, units, bases in the regions of the Far North were abandoned precisely during the reign of EBN, whose center rises in Yekaterinburg. And when I was in military units (located anywhere) there were plans to hand over scrap metal and send it to the "mainland" ... But you did not know that ... laughing

There were many miracles in the Union, but even there they did not sink to such delirium. Just the author of the post slightly ..... distorted / embellished / creatively modified. And .... loudspeakers did not bother to check this very news, why bother? Here, as with calibers lol

      Nowhere. Saw cut. Automation can be checked in a conventional armored chamber with an attached freezer.

        For example, an armored vehicle or a tank? Or S-400 automation?

          Buddy, read the article carefully. Small-caliber cannon armament. They are tested on special stands. There is no point in bringing this to the Arctic. The point is to test in sea conditions. For this there was a training ground near Feodosia.

      This landfill is located in Podolsk, Moscow region, like TsNIITOCHMASH itself.
      http://cniitm.ru/news/581/
      Periodic certification for compliance with the requirements of programs and methods introduced by the Federal Law "On Ensuring the Uniformity of Measurements" in 2014 was passed by 3 chambers: a dust chamber, a combined heat and rain chamber and a cold chamber.
      “The certification was the final technical stage in the restoration of the unique testing technology lost after the collapse of the USSR, which was owned only by our institute,” said Sergei Karasev, head of the Scientific and Technical Center for Testing and Experimental Research of VVST AO TsNIITOCHMASH.

    Where will they find -60 in the Arctic now? It is not easier to take an old bomb shelter (or dig a new one in Lvovka), install an armored chamber with a freezer and a wind blower. And that's all. And not to fence a garden with logistics in the Far North.

    Yes, we already understood that in the USSR they were stupid and now they are no better, since they cannot think of the simplest solutions that you immediately found. Everyone around is "sawing" everything, only you, our "most perspicacious", know everything and see everything.

      I spent a month banishing ballistic barrels 30 and 23 after experiments at the training base of the school. Everyday. He took it off the rack, carried it to the yard, blew it off, showed it to the manager, took it to the rack with clean ones. At work, he took part in shooting and other tests of artillery systems of these calibers. Was part of the test group at the sea range. But if you understand this issue better - for God's sake.

    The laboratory was truly unique. It worked out the options tested

    Interestingly, I have never heard this, but I often visited TsNIITOCHMASH.
    By the way, an example of an organization that has never stopped developing new products.

    The lost will have to be restored. What is needed first.
    This is a logical process, since we consider the north ours and are ready to prove it to everyone.
