"Will cover key areas": Russian anti-aircraft guns "Dzhigit" will compete for a foreign customer

"Dzhigit"

The new anti-aircraft launchers developed by the Russian defense industry can go to foreign troops. The Royal Thai Navy announced its intention to purchase five mobile complexes using an all-wheel drive 4x4 armored vehicle as a chassis.

The potential deal, which is expected to be closed within a year, is valued at 246 million baht ($ 8,2 million). Anti-aircraft missile systems are supposed to be used to defend the country's coast.

Air defense complexes should cover key areas from a military point of view

- noted in the procurement documents of the military department.

As indicated in the Thai edition of TAF, currently the army is already armed with Russian Igla-S MANPADS and Chinese QW-18 and QW-2. Therefore, the struggle for a new order, involving not only the supply of air defense systems, but also the installation of anti-aircraft guns on the chassis, will unfold between them.

The "Dzhigit" support-launcher has no analogues in its ability to launch salvo launches of MANPADS anti-aircraft missiles. With a salvo launch, the probability of hitting a target is increased by an average of 1,5 times

- indicates the Russian developer of the Mechanical Engineering Design Bureau.

In addition to Dzhigit, the company offers the Strelets system, which can be used on almost any carrier.

The contingent on the Kuril Islands has such a maximum ... It would not be superfluous.

In the case of the Kurils, the blow will be dealt to the decision-making centers of Tokyo and Washington.
Sagittarius and Dzhigit are weapons of local conflicts and an export product.

... and also it would not be superfluous to offer the installation together with domestic "wheels". It's time to learn how to create army jeeps for such products for a long time, so that the product has the maximum added value.

I'm wondering. All such horrors about palm oil are told, they are afraid of it in every possible way, but did anyone present on their own body feel its terrible malignancy?
Or everything is like in a joke: "This garbage is your Caruso! Why so? Yes, Yurik sang to me".

It's all the same, palm tree or I don't know, mangrove, just an exchange for advanced technologies in the person of "Dzhigit" should be over-adequate, and not something at world prices, which can be bought from anyone.

[Lord of the Sith]

Palm oil is the same commodity as advanced technologies, bought a ton for three kopecks, sold it for three rubles.

And the oil itself is blasphemed in the media and the Internet, only because it is corny cheap, unlike other oils, although the quality is not worse. The harmfulness of palm oil is a myth for hamsters.

Quote: Lord of the Sith

Only any Bedouin or whoever they have oil can squeeze out, and MANPADS are not only produced. And the exchange should go at three kopecks per ton and not three rubles.

Yes, use it even in kilograms, it's a pity or what?

[Lord of the Sith]

Bedouins do not squeeze palm oil due to the absence of the Bedouins themselves in the growing area of ​​these palms.

And what about technology, pay and that's it, even in money, even in kind (with the same oil).
A contract is concluded with a technology buyer, seller and a third party.
And immediately a third party receives this oil, the seller is money with broth, everyone is happy and satisfied)))

In my opinion this is some kind of ersatz

[NDR-791]

With Shilka it is very well thought out. There is a huge amount of them in storage. And this is a good plus to 23mm. I don’t know about the Dzhigits, whether they are in service at all. I know that it exists for a long time. In my opinion this is part of Arrow-10 or something very similar

There are some doubts, based on personal experience (the pass to the yellow ones at the outpost section, passed for the equipment, after engineering preparation, was a hundred meters higher than the practical ceiling of the turntable, leaving ((once a month in the summer-autumn season)) with the fighters in the RPG, we for a couple of hours we moved on a shishiga, then threw it nafig and spanked it with a pawn for eight hours).

That's it. Well, they made an installation for the simultaneous launch of two MANPADS, the probability of hitting a target increased. But the characteristics of MANPADS remained the same.

Developed by the Russian defense industry new anti-aircraft launchers can go to foreign troops.

Dear author of this article, these "new" installations have been exported since 2002.
In late 2002 - early 2003, a batch of installations was delivered to Mexico for joint use with previously purchased Igla-type portable missile systems, where it was installed on Mercedes-Benz Unimog cars. More than 40 support-launchers "Dzhigit", installed on vehicles of the "Nissan-Patrol" type, are in service with the UAE army and can use all types of anti-aircraft missiles of the "Igla" family.
As you know, support-launchers "Dzhigit" and MANPADS 9K338 "Igla-S" are in service with the Iraqi army. In 2014 Iraq received Russian modern air defense systems. Among the armaments received were the Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft missile and cannon systems, Igla-S MANPADS with a 1PN97M "Mowgli-2M" thermal imaging sight purchased in Russia and support-launchers "Dzhigit".

In Iraq and Libya, Toyota's 4x4 vehicles were used as mobile launchers, in addition, they are used in Iraq, Syria and other countries.

Not really. From the desert. This miracle was done for the Arabs. In the 90s, MANPADS were brought to them for sale, they were shown how to use. And suddenly we received "wishes" from them. First, make a version with a seat, since the thing is heavy and the soldier gets tired. Secondly, put on a jeep, as it is hot in the desert on foot. And thirdly, since the probability of being hit is less than 100%, fire two missiles at once. Our team tried to explain that to put the system on a hefty jeep, the main highlight of which is the stealth of the carrier, but without much success. And then, they were "knocked down" by the main argument: the procedure for aiming and launching is overly complicated.
As a result, ours first made a system for automatic preparation of a rocket for launch, then an aiming system, then we solved the problem of paired launch, then we made an installation with a seat. And then it turned out that it turned out to be a good "west". And with some refinement, you can make a good system out of a technical curiosity. Made Sagittarius. Plainly they could not attach it anywhere until the Mi-28 went into series.
And now the concept of using such systems has already been developed in our army.

Actually, the thing turned out to be creepy. It fits into any "gazelle", is easy to operate ... God forbid, it gets to terrorists ...

Only if the enemy will apply the classic BSHU with cast iron and NAR. If the enemy decides to use at least helicopters with ATGM - that's it, "Shilka" with MANPADS will become a target.

MANPADS is good in its niche - an unobtrusive wearable air defense system. which could be anywhere. For this, one has to put up with the short range and low power of the warhead.
As soon as we put it on the chassis, we immediately lose these main advantages, but the disadvantages do not disappear anywhere.

[NDR-791]

What would it be ??? I read so much that the fleet is buying. Why does the fleet need a tachanka? Most likely to cover the coast. The same helicopter against the water-sky background is a good target, however.

[Alexey RA]

Quote: NDR-791

What would it be ???

Yes, because the range of destruction of MANPADS is less than the range of destruction of ATGM.
As long as the MANPADS remains portable, this is not so important, since it is more or less realistic to detect a foot crew before launching only in the desert. And firing ATGMs at individual people from a long range is not an ordinary task.
As soon as MANPADS are put on transport - that's all, you can forget about stealth.

[NDR-791]

It's like from the movie: see MANPADS? And he IS !!!

IR, RL. RTR - and a jeep with MANPADS, exchanging data within the air defense system, will appear even from the jungle.

[Petro_tut]

It remains to test them in combat conditions against drones

And what's the novelty - to put two arrows on the carriage and fasten the binoculars. Apparently in binoculars and innovation. Everything else, and on their own, is fine on the spot and on the knee.

... And what's the novelty - to put two arrows on the carriage and fasten the binoculars

Good day.
Nothing))
It's just more convenient and comfortable.
Don't hold 18 kg on your shoulder.
And then there are 2 launchers at once and the reaction time is less. Operators can use the ceiling, MANPADS are still not cheap.
For some reason, the UAE wanted them and purchased 40 units.
Iraq bought.
Mexico has ordered a batch (if I'm not mistaken).
Rumor has it that in Syria and Libya were lit.
Now Thais.
If they want, then they liked it. Let them buy. KBM money. ))

The awning looks cool.

[evgen1221]

No need to drag, so no one in the army about the need to carry asks the soldiers, took and dragged. The operator is more intelligent, so one fig from the operator is only aiming at about there, the astal work of the gsn is required.

Dzhigit is a good thing, but it can be improved. Integrate a tablet to receive data from the commander. Add a couple of rockets. Well, your own power source.

This is logical. The ground strikes are often carried out by a pair of aircraft. It makes sense to have two pairs of rockets to target both.

It is unclear what is better than 2 Needles on the machine, in comparison with two soldiers with the same MANPADS? It is much easier to spot this machine. A soldier can sit in a trench or in the bushes, and this machine, especially in a jeep, is visible 10 km away.

[Nikolaevich I]

“Suddenly there’s a fight, and I’m tired!” ... How long will a fighter with MANPADS on his shoulder loom around here, syudy in “readiness”, waiting for the foe? Also in the column ... And here ... a seat, an awning ... a coffee pot can be hung on the counter next to the MANPADS ... wait for the gate while resting!

[Mimoprohodil]

Hookah still hang and the ideal system for the Arabs is ready

[Sergey_K]

which you and your coffee pot are already in sight from 10 km. no, I don't need such comfort. I'd rather sit in the bushes and put the pipe gently on the tarpaulin. the moment will come - the commander takes a decision longer than I'm ready to shoot ...

IMHO the ideal system is an automated complex that works in a sector and starts in automatic mode.
