Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic: The country needs to strengthen its air defense

30

The Czech Ministry of Defense said that the country needs to strengthen its air defense. This statement attracts special attention in connection with the erupting political and diplomatic scandal, which began with the Czech accusations against the Russian Federation of alleged involvement in the explosions at a military warehouse in 2014. For seven years this question did not particularly concern Prague, but now Prague has decided to demonstrate a "tough reaction."

Now the military department of the Czech Republic announced plans for the procurement of vehicles for anti-aircraft systems RBS-70NG. In fact, we are talking about one of the variants of Swedish-made MANPADS. The initial version of these portable anti-aircraft missile systems was created in Sweden in 1977.



The Czech Republic is using the T-815 Tatra wheeled platform to accommodate these anti-aircraft systems. More precisely, these airborne vehicles are usually accommodated by military personnel armed with the aforementioned MANPADS. It is planned to use trucks for placement without an "operator" - with a remote start from the cab.

According to Deputy Minister of Defense of the Czech Republic Lubor Koudelka, two contracts have already been signed for a total of 545 million Czech crowns (about 2 billion rubles). On the basis of one of the contracts, it is planned to supply 2021 T-2022 Tatra vehicles in the 16x815 version to the Czech armed forces in 6-6. Each such car of the Czech Ministry of Defense is going to be purchased at a price of 17 million kroons, including VAT (this is, no less, about 60 million rubles per unit - with additional equipment). At the same time, such amounts for the purchase of trucks are justified, as already mentioned, "by the need to improve the country's air defense system."

Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic:

The purchase of on-board vehicles will ensure the mobility of newly created units armed with the RBS-70NG anti-aircraft system.

In this situation, it can be stated that if the Czech Republic continues to haunt itself with the "Russian threat", then even ordinary trucks for its army will cost incredible amounts. It is quite obvious that certain forces in the same Czech Republic are using anti-Russian rhetoric for their own financial and economic purposes.

    Is there a picnic car in the picture? A table to spread the cards, a tank for "fuel" on the starboard side, on the left - a folded brazier ... Reasonable. laughing There is also a hatch in the rear wall of the cab to transmit the "road equalizer" to the driver.

        You have to be more attentive. Didn't you see the sausage coolers under the table? Ay-yay-yay ... And you can pour beer into the tank, and "fuel" - in backpacks. Based on the proportions of consumption. laughing

          The claim is not substantiated in any way.
          I just noticed everything.

          And the container for beer - a drink of low alcohol and more refreshing than "intoxicating", called "fuel tank"- not correct.

          Teach materiel.

            I have everything in order with the knowledge of the materiel. I even noticed that the car has no roof (which is in vain) and that there is a good roll of paper towels on the rear wall of the cockpit on the left side, which is VERY correct. And wipe your hands, wipe them off the table, and wipe the knives-forks, and it is useful for more hygienic procedures. laughing

              This whole scandal was ordered in the USA to convince the Czechs that it is necessary to buy "Patriots"

            Of course, the half measures listed above will not give the desired effect, and if we abstract from arrogant mockery, it is quite obvious that the responsible leadership of the Czech Republic is vitally important to provide all the country's livestock with sets of OKZK and ZKS, and this is just the beginning ... Petrov and Boshirov are such inventors.

    Czechs, for example, are in perfect relations with Israel. And the country is far from poor. So what prevents from using this to build a good air defense?

      And war is always, enrichment, those who stand on the sidelines and play off .. And then the gesheft removes a fabulous one on the losers and on the players .. Here is the highest democracy and the market economy .. Everyone is striving for this, but not everyone is bunched up. soldier

    I think the Israeli specialists are already working with them .. Only the "Iron Dome" can save from the Russian threat .. laughing ..There are already singing praises to them, and how the load of the F-35 will be steamy .. wassat After all, Russia, without the F-35, is impossible to frighten, only those who buy these fu -35s will be protected, as they say in Israel wassat
