Russian early warning system passed state tests

February 14 2021 45

The upgraded Russian missile attack warning system (EWS) completed state tests at the end of 2020. This was stated by the general designer of the SPRN, the general director of the Vympel IAC concern Sergey Boev.

According to Boev, at the end of December last year, state tests of the improved command post of the early warning system and the entire system were completed. As part of the modernization of the warning system, the main task of replacing equipment with modern ones using new technologies and ensuring the transmission of information to command posts of the highest echelon was solved.

In August last year, Boev announced that the Russian missile attack warning system (EWS) had been tested, and that work was planned to correct the deficiencies identified by the military for the fall of 2020. The transfer of the system to the Ministry of Defense was planned by the end of 2020.

As previously reported, the improved early warning system includes a network of ground-based over-the-horizon radars "Voronezh" and a unified space system (CES) "Kupol", which includes the "Tundra" tracking satellites.

Today the Voronezh station controls all directions of probable launches of ballistic and cruise missiles. The stations are located in the Leningrad, Kaliningrad, Irkutsk, Orenburg regions, in the Altai, Krasnodar and Krasnoyarsk regions. Two new stations are being built near Murmansk and Vorkuta, another is planned to be built in Crimea.

The Kupol CSC currently includes four Tundra satellites, but by 2024 it should be brought up to 10 spacecraft.

But this is very good news!
For this reason - well, for the early warning system!

    on the contrary, it is necessary to turn out - offer Mexico, without the possibility of refusal - air control. space, supposedly for tracking drug flights. and ourselves - for the United States to look.
    only they have to take money from them, and not we pay for control over Mexico

Good news. Recently I saw that not a single launch in the world went unnoticed. A reliable shield of the state.

  The system was assembled and in 2018 the radar field around our country was closed. Several stations were in trial operation. The developments went on, statistics were collected. We got vulnerable spots, especially in the field of ground and space echelon interface, satellite repeaters, etc. Now, apparently, they have finished, all the bottlenecks have been expanded. Therefore, they passed the state acceptance. Otherwise it is impossible.
  Here is a picture of monitoring the airspace of the Don-2N radar over Moscow:
  
  And this is a ground network of Voronezh-type early warning systems:

Yes, if they build it in Crimea, I can imagine what will begin. Crimea is ours, but let the analysts carefully calculate everything. The main thing is that people at the top understand what kind of partners we have in the West, this makes us happy.

    network of ground-based over-the-horizon radar stations "Voronezh"
    - one of the original components. There are at least four more.

      In life, nobody calls stations "constituents". And the communication channels between the command center and the station, if they were analog, then in the immemorial past. They have been digital for a long time.

        It's about the hardware. And even wired (cable) lines remained, not only "spatial" ones (wave, ionospheric, etc.). Terminal equipment and methods of processing and closing information, of course, are digital.

    Simply with an analog connection, after exposure to EMP, it would be possible to "manually" determine or find out where it flew and what else works. With a figure, I doubt it would be possible. Is there any duplication?

      Field telephone, for example, all sorts of EMP, before the flashlight! There is only an ax, well, maybe a projectile, specifically by cable.
      Of course, the concept is outdated, but working ... up to certain limits.
      PS By the way, "digital" is not so defenseless, if you look at it .... basic equipment can be well protected from indirect impact, and direct impact is the same as an ax through a cable.

    It was on this phone that I answered one night when to the headquarters duty officer. The conversation was anegdotical ... I did not understand anything (an ordinary soldier), but they demanded from me, but I cannot leave the headquarters, in the end I gave up - I ran after the officer on duty in the regiment. And the reason was simple - Chernobyl.

The stations are located in the Leningrad, Kaliningrad, Irkutsk, Orenburg regions, in the Altai, Krasnodar and Krasnoyarsk regions. Two new stations are being built near Murmansk and Vorkuta, another is planned to be built in Crimea.

A bit inaccurate. Not 2, but 3 Voronezh stations are under construction. The third is in the area of the Voronezh-M station near Lekhtusi. And in the region of Sevastopol it is planned to build not "Voronezh-SM", but "Yakhroma" radar station. At least this is the data for January 2021.

Voronezh-SM will not be built in Crimea. ORTU "Nikolaev" is going to build a "Yakhroma" radar in place of the old Dnepr radar (at least according to Shoigu)

Is it necessary to write nonsense? China has its own early warning radar system, although it may not be as extensive and advanced as ours. "Help" to China is only in the modernization of the existing system. And some consider this almost a betrayal.

Generally speaking, the satellite segment of the early warning system is either satellites on the HEO (the so-called "Molniya" orbit) or on the geostationary. The first has an overheating of 1,5-2 thousand kilometers on the earth's surface and an apogee of 36000 km, the second exclusively in a circular orbit of 36000 km. I do not think that they will be very much a nightmare there from nuclear explosions in low orbits.

Quote: BoA KAA

And this is a ground network of Voronezh-type early warning systems:

The scheme, Alexander, is not entirely accurate.
First, the planned station in Zeya is not "Voronezh", but the second station "Container".
Secondly in the area of the settlement. Ragozinka-2 (not far from Lekhtusi), where the Voronezh-M station now stands, it is planned to build another station - this time Voronezh-SM.
IN 3. It is planned to build a station in Crimea instead of the old, no longer operating Dnepr station. Initially, they wanted to build the Voronezh-SM station there, but now it seems to be about the Yakhroma station
AT 4. The stations in Olenegorsk (Murmansk region) and in the Vorkuta region have not yet reached the stage of even close-combat duty. It is planned in Vorkuta in 2021, in Olenegorsk in 2022
AT 5. It is not yet entirely known where, but it is planned to build another Yakhroma station in Chukotka by 2030
