"Tornado-S" will cover the western direction: missile brigades of the Western Military District will be re-equipped with a new MLRS

MLRS "Tornado-S" will cover the western direction, missile brigades of the Western Military District will be re-equipped with new multiple launch rocket systems, a fundamental decision on rearmament has already been made. Reported by "News" with reference to the military department.

The Ministry of Defense has decided to re-equip the ZVO missile brigades with the Tornado-S MLRS, which are to be replaced in the Smerch MLRS troops. According to the newspaper, the 79th Guards Rocket Artillery Brigade will be the first to receive the new MLRS, then the rearmament of other units will begin. The military department clarified that the rate of rearmament will depend on the supply of new equipment.



Rearmament at the Tornado-S MLRS began in early 2019. The 439th Guards Rocket Artillery Brigade, stationed in the Astrakhan Region, was the first to receive a set of MLRS, the MLRS participated in the Kavkaz-2020 exercises. At present, the 232nd Rocket Brigade of the Central Military District is being rearmed on the Tornado-S.

Earlier, the Ministry of Defense said that by 2017 the Tornado-S MLRS would completely replace the Smerchi and Hurricanes in the troops.

The Tornado-S was developed as a replacement for the Smerch MLRS. Like the Tornado, the Tornado-S has 12 guides for 300-mm rockets. A key feature of the new MLRS is the automated guidance and fire control system (ASUNO), which allows you to simultaneously control the firing of the division, automatically calculate target data and direct the guide packets in horizontal and vertical planes. Tornado-S missiles can be adjusted in flight, which significantly increased the accuracy of hitting a target at a distance of more than 100 km. The control adjustment system is located directly in the rocket.

"Tornado-S" - the most powerful and long-range MLRS. The missile range is up to 120 km. The developers promised to increase it to 200 km. The installation allows you to hit objects at the entire tactical depth of the battle formations of the enemy. Moreover, these systems can be quickly transferred from one section to another. Columns of wheeled vehicles are capable of making rolls up to 300-500 km per day. MLRS tests were held in the 2015 year.

      A formidable descendant of the famous "Katyusha".

      Paired with Orlan -10, Tornado-S are capable of doing business. The range would have to be increased up to 200 km ...

        Earlier, the Ministry of Defense said that by 2017 the Tornado-S MLRS would completely replace the Smerchi and Hurricanes in the troops.

        I'm wondering how Tornado-S can replace Hurricanes if they are not bicaliber, unlike Hurricane-1M?
        And they only use 300mm ammunition.
        This should mean that it is planned to abandon the 220mm caliber.
        But this is unlikely. Yes, and Uragan-1M, in that case, why was it necessary to develop?

          smile Yes, I will say more - why was it necessary to develop at one time the MLRS "Smerch"? - Tactical missiles of the "Tochka" type would have cost less ... I "stuck" them (TR Tochka) on the same MAZ 543, four pieces in the manner of the S-300 air defense system and bullet yourself ... IMHO and the accuracy is higher, and the area of In the case of using cassette warheads, more than Smerch will have ... Games of the military-industrial complex for the development of the military budget - just like now!

    Interestingly, all types of BB migrated from the Tornado to the Tornado-S? Or maybe they added new ones?

      Of course they did. News from 2017.
      ... Izvestia reports that the newest Russian 300-mm Tornado-S multiple launch rocket system will receive a long-range high-precision guided missile with a guidance system based on GLONASS signals. At this stage, it is in a high degree of technical readiness and is being tested. Before the launch of the missile, corrected by GLONASS, the coordinates of the target are put into its homing head. In flight, the rocket, with the help of gas-dynamic rudders, corrects its trajectory in order to accurately hit a given point. The ammunition, which is developed and produced by the scientific and production association "Splav", will be capable, according to experts, of hitting even miniature targets no more than one meter in size at a distance of several hundred kilometers, regardless of the weather and time of day.


      . "Tornado-S" in 2018 should begin to replace the ultra-long-range systems "Smerch". Depending on the type of ammunition "Tornado" destroys the enemy at a distance of more than 100 to 200 kilometers. On the new MLRS, the missile guide tubes were placed in special containers. Thanks to this, recharging with a crane takes a matter of minutes. On "Tornadoes" it takes 15-16 minutes, since each rail is recharged separately.

    MLRS "Tornado-S" will cover the western direction, missile brigades of the Western Military District will be re-equipped with new multiple launch rocket systems, a fundamental decision on rearmament has already been made.

    The missile brigades of the Russian Army are armed with OTRK ("Iskander"), not MLRS, the author again confused something ...
    So the MLRS "Tornado-S" can replace the MLRS "Smerch", which are in service with the RABr., About which the author himself further indicates in the text:
    According to the newspaper, the first new MLRS will receive 79-I guards rocket artillery brigade

    The first set of MLRS received 439-I guards rocket artillery brigadestationed in the Astrakhan region

    Thus, after reading the article, kind and gullible members of the forum cannot understand which connections will receive the indicated MLRS, and the author does not see the difference in the difference between RBR., RBR. and ABR.
    RABr. in SV, a little one at a time ... as a result, the good news superimposed on the author's nonsense, turning the article into nonsense ...

        A new name. The first and foremost difference. Everything else fits into the word "modernization".
        Rebranding from the military-industrial complex.

    "Tornado-S" will cover the western direction:

    So yes, but I think they will trample from the south and east .. This is where you need to cover the border!
    The West loves to fight with someone else's hands .. There the bai have already grown fat on the oil and gas left by the Soviet Union ..! And if you set them up by blocking their accounts in the west .. They'll screw up with screams! This is where the invasion has to wait .. Trust me hi

    Fine, but there must be a will to win and love for the homeland. Remember Gorbach, what kind of army was and fucked everything up, and then the drunkard drank everything. Accuracy is up to a meter in a few hundred kilometers, but the will, the courage is there to launch? The drones are almost over the headquarters of the Black Sea Fleet. fly and no one can give a command to shoot down. Sports teams were forbidden to play under the flag of their homeland, and they went to speak. Soon ships from Russia will be banned from flying under their own flag. Entry into the Black Sea should be permissive from Russia. Wants the West of the war let it get it ...

          ... well, if only "For the future of Russia" ... Well then yes, then of course ...
          "For the sake of honor and prestige, than to grow old,
          Maybe it's better to die for Russia? "

          Only this is what I have a doubt: in due time. in the USSR and the USA, studies were carried out independently of each other, which showed that even a local direct military conflict between the USSR and the USA would develop into a full-scale nuclear war with corresponding consequences ...
          Both the US and Russia are still nuclear powers ...
          Then the question is: how will we assess our shooting down of an American reconnaissance drone over neutral territories?
          How can we force them to ask us for permission to enter the Black Sea?
          If a local armed conflict really escalates into a full-scale nuclear war, neither the United States nor we will have any future!
          Do not agree?

            At this point in time, the accuracy of the missiles can be said to be absolute, and the power of the charges has decreased. Modern calculations show that the world will not disappear as a result of the exchange of blows.
            Why is the US behaving so arrogantly? They calculated that in the event of war, 100-200 million would die, but 100 million out of 320 would remain alive. The elite would seem to survive on superyachts and shelters.
            According to unmanned aerial vehicles, this is an aircraft with reconnaissance and guidance equipment with a certain radius of action. Part of it flies with ammunition (and suddenly with nuclear ones). That's just the operator lost contact with the UAV and the electronics went crazy and attacked the target, the same headquarters of the fleet.
            And sho as they say in Ukraine? Closer than the radius of action, you cannot be allowed to approach the border. You need to negotiate with a potential enemy, if he does not want to, send the order of our actions in the event of a UAV. Believe me, there will be no war, even if we shoot down the scout Poseidon with the crew. By the way, how many of them were shot down on Baltic and north. And Powers remember.
            Likewise, with the calls of ships into the Black Sea. For example, an English destroyer came in without permission to jump on it. Who will intercede for them? They are falling apart even without war. The Queen is already reading the Holy Scripture.
            The future is always whether we want it or not. By the way, even without Russia and the United States, there is someone to unleash a full-scale nuclear war.

    Tornadoes will upgrade to Tornado-C?
    > Tornado-S "- the most powerful and long-range MLRS.
    The most powerful in the Russian Federation, you wanted to say?
