The dates for the start of state tests of the hypersonic anti-ship missile system "Zircon"

The date for the start of state tests of the Zircon hypersonic anti-ship missile system has been announced. As reported TASS citing a source in the military-industrial complex, state tests will begin next year, 2021.

According to the source, in 2021, 7 Zircon launches will be carried out, two of them will take place during the flight test stage, and another 5 - state tests. The frigate "Admiral Gorshkov" and the multipurpose submarine of Project 885 (code "Ash") "Severodvinsk" will take part in the tests.



In 2021, after completion of flight design tests, state joint tests will begin. As part of flight design tests, two more launches will be performed

- the agency leads the words of the source.

The test program will be divided into two stages: in the first half of 2021, 4 launches of the Zircon rocket will be carried out from the Admiral Gorshkov, in the second half, the Severodvinsk nuclear submarine will join the launches, which will conduct at least 3 rocket launches.

The flight design stage of the Zircon tests in 2020 was successful, a total of 3 missile launches were performed from the board of the Admiral Gorshkov frigate. All tests are going on schedule, without disruptions. The press service of the Northern fleet said that the rocket confirmed the inherent characteristics.

As part of the tests, the high speed and other tactical and technical characteristics of the new weapons

- said in the message of the fleet.

As previously reported in the defense industry, according to the plans of the Ministry of Defense, the ship complex with the Zircon hypersonic missile should be put into service in 2022.

              How to reel only? laughingIt will be blown away with "Onyx" in an instant. You know, nobody is impressed by the start of a copy of "Onyx" - "Yakhont" - "Bramos" .. The public wants to see "Zircon" And you can see its proof of existence only at the moment of hitting the target. Let them leave any crap about flying over the AUG for other sites. There are a whole bunch of them. Stockless-unpopular! laughing

                  There are rules that we and the Americans follow at sea. Including - for conducting exercises. Missile launch zones are warned in advance so that third-party ships can leave from there.
                  A missile launch towards a US Navy (or Russian Navy) warship will be regarded by the crew as an attack. Are you "weakly" going to unleash the 3rd World War, or just do not understand what you are talking about?

                    And what if parallel to the course of a ship that has entered the Black Sea area? wassat You never know, suddenly they missed (missed) the warning about the shooting ...
                    We (I am among these people) are adults for a long time (more than fifty years) and we have the right to jokes and gags ... For the mood. And you must remember:

                    Why didn't you show your concern when Turkey shot down the Su-24? Or, when a country friendly to a narrow circle of Russian officials and simply representatives of the Russian media exposed the Il-20 to an air defense missile attack? Yes, if someone did the same against the United States as they do against the Russian Federation (at least the case with the Kursk, when US submarines were cruising in the exercise area), they would have sunk, fired at, and trumpeted the start of World War III long ago. They are not even reproached for Yugoslavia. Not a single American politician was turned on to the kukan for aggression against Iraq. Not a single French diplomat has been convicted of the riots in Libya. Not a single Japanese was given an "ax-head" for defiant statements about the nationality of the Russian islands ... But here you are concerned that people are "joking" about launching missiles ... Or do you think that we were afraid of war? It is not yet known who will be the first to put it in his pants. In any case, we do not turn the whole world against the United States and do not shout from high tribunes that the United States is preventing us from developing our economy and economic ties with other states ...
                    Everything is still ahead, the specific test dates are not yet known, and, already, analysts tore the seats ... New Year is coming soon. Cool down and be kinder to each other.

                flight speed and altitude, but this is not the main thing, they can be detected from afar, although the closer to the object, the higher the measurement accuracy and the lower the error, but for example, the data on the operation of the altimeter cannot be counted from afar, and this is a very important parameter, knowing its frequency and modulation can be well protected in the future using electronic warfare. and from a distance you cannot measure accurate data on horizontal maneuvers, and Zircon is a maneuvering anti-ship missile.
                there is a lot of things, otherwise what you think. why aren't the American ambassador and engineers Lockheed Martin invited to the tests? and they would not refuse to attend.

                  An important parameter was discussed in 2017:
                  Western military experts are in a panic: if these "Zircons" of the Russians really fly at the declared speed (8 times faster than sound!), then in the next 30, or even 50 years, no one can come up with protection against them! It turns out that the most powerful naval power in the world - the United States - will have to put an end to a dozen of its vaunted aircraft carriers. And on all other surface ships, defenseless against the "Zircon".

          It's like from armored humor, about the history of the Tiger tank:

          - Well, what’s up with you ... THIS WHAT ???
          “Skating rinks,” Aders reported with hysterical vigor.
          - I see that the rinks! Why in four rows!
          - For a better ride! Developed by our engineers under my guidance! The fruit of the Aryan genius! Allows the tank to fire on the move!
          - And before that, it was impossible to shoot? The Fuehrer asked, puzzled.
          Aders knew perfectly well that a tank could shoot even on the move, even in the fall, even upside down, there would be a shell in the gun. Because shooting and hitting are fundamentally different things.... But it was too late to back down:
          - You can't, my Fuhrer! When the tank bounces on the move, the projectile can skew in the cannon from the push!

      For me, as a layman, the statements of critics and supporters of Zircon are not very clear. But it can be argued that, firstly, if the critics are right and "Zircon" is a cartoon character, then this is the scariest cartoon in recent American history, and in this case our propaganda worked no worse than Reagan's with Star Wars. and, secondly, if this "Zircon" is a harsh American reality, then neither one nor the enemy will be able to sleep peacefully. The presence of such weapons will - 1. enrage them, 2. stimulate an arms race, 3. and God forbid, at a moment of weakness, to strike a preemptive strike.

          But I will remind you, I have a good memory:
          Three more test launches of the Zircon hypersonic missile from the frigate Admiral Gorshkov will be carried out by the end of the year. The tests will work out the defeat of a naval target of the "aircraft carrier" type.

          Another interlocutor of the agency confirmed this information, adding that all three launches will take place with real destruction of sea or ground targets imitating aircraft carriers and strategic enemy targets.

                  They no longer require it.
                  Here, with the shouts of "Urya", three button accordions were torn and all US aircraft carriers were drowned with Zircon, some even twice. laughing

                  And now it turns out that:
                  no one promised anything to anyone

        On the "target imitating an aircraft carrier" - it was promised. But what exactly this launch will be at such a range, I don’t remember.
        But the Guarantor promised such a range, even "over 1000 km." ...
        And yes - it won't fly this year.

            A year ago, he announced the Zircon's range - "over 1000 km."
            Have you heard?
            The whole country was discussing. fellow
            How many copies broke ...
            But the real launches were so far (from the announced ones) at a range of no more than 450 km.
            Theoretically, such a range is possible, it was declared for the Zircon during an air launch (when the mass and size model on the Tu-22M3 was dragged), but the main thing is not the range, but the ability to hit a naval mobile target at least 450 km. distance.

          ... The Zircon hypersonic anti-ship missile during the upcoming November tests will be launched at a distance of about 1 km at a target imitating an enemy ship. This was reported to TASS by a source in the military-industrial complex.

          The frigate "Admiral Gorshkov" will carry out three test launches of the hypersonic missile "Zircon" by the end of the year, the missile will be tested in hitting a target simulating an aircraft carrier. This is reported by TASS, citing sources.
          It is noted that the next launch will take place in late October - early November.

          "All three launches will be carried out with real destruction of sea or ground targets, in particular, imitating aircraft carriers or strategic objects of a conditional enemy," the message says.

          Oh, this TASS ... smile

              hi I do not know who and what "drew" there, but the presented "Zircon" is just an old Soviet "Onyx", starting along a high-altitude trajectory with a "new", much more smoky accelerator. He would be glad to aim for more, but, alas, he cannot. Therefore, on the marching sector, they do not show the defeat of the target - the lie will be revealed.

                Look frame by frame the exit of "Zircon" from the UKSK, and make sure that it is not "Onyx" - you will see the features.
                And their start with Onyx cannot be different, and why invent something for an individual if Onyx has a perfect starting algorithm.
                "Significantly more heavily smoky" booster / starting accelerator, from more starting mass and power than "Onyx".

      In the 0s, there was a video of onyx testing on YouTube. In some kind of pelvis just flew. Hole pryndets, through penetration. The launches of brahmos were generally shown on TV with hitting a training target.

        So the fact of the matter is that Zircon is not Onyx, the working conditions of the GOS are fundamentally different.
        And if Mach 8 is beyond doubt, this is not news for a long time, then hitting is a revolution.

        To do this, you need to see the shape of the rocket air intake.
        For supersonic and hypersound they differ sharply.

          In supersonic and hypersonic, first of all, speeds differ. If Zircon develops, as reported, 8M (and there is no reason not to believe this - for sure the partners were watching), then it is hypersonic, regardless of the shape of the nose ... i.e. air intake
