Ukraine has signed a major contract for the supply of R-27 medium-range air-to-air missiles

67

Ukraine will supply a consignment to a foreign customer aviation missiles. According to the portal defense-blog.com, Kiev has concluded a major weapons contract for the supply of R-27 air-to-air missiles.

As the newspaper writes, the contract was signed by the state joint-stock holding company "Artem" with a foreign customer, the data on which were not disclosed. Also unknown is the volume of the order, the modification of the ordered missiles and the delivery time. As stated in the Ukrainian company itself, the prepayment has already been received from the customer, and production has begun.



In Ukraine itself, the contract for the supply of R-27 has already been called "the largest in the last 10-15 years." It is also known that the contract amount exceeds $ 200 million.

It is assumed that India could be the customer of the missiles; in 2020, the Artem State Chemical Combine has already received a contract from the Indian Ministry of Defense for the supply of spare parts for the R-27 in the amount of about $ 8 million. It is also possible that it could be Indonesia, which previously showed interest in Ukrainian-made missiles.

Note that the Ukrainian company, which previously produced the R-27 aircraft in close cooperation with Russian enterprises, was forced to stop assembling them after 2014, since all economic ties were severed. In February of this year, Vladimir Zimin, President of Artyom, announced that the company had succeeded in setting up production of R-27 missiles without Russian components. Even then, a large volume of orders for these missiles from India was announced.

The R-27 air-to-air missile is designed to combat enemy aircraft and cruise missiles. Its range is up to 110 kilometers.

      Strange news.
      - yesterday Ukraine talked about a contract for 300+ million, today it's already 200.
      - very often in Ukraine, memorandums are issued as contracts;
      - as a rule, the customer is interested in his disclosure, so that probable opponents would know about the presence of weapons in him and once again think before doing it.

        So their rocket is no longer "Vympelovskaya" R-27, if you read the news, then they installed new IR / AR GOS (Radionix), updated the radio fuse and replaced all the electronics, so there is nothing to accompany, this is in fact a parallel branch of the development of R -27 and, apparently, for the Indians, it turned out to be preferable to the Russian one, which means that we need to ask Vympel why, being the lead developer, they did not offer a more competitive product, given that they also have developments for integrating active radar GOS and other innovations.

          ... it is necessary to put questions to Vympel, why, being the lead developer, they did not offer a more competitive product, given that they also have developments for integrating active radar seeker into the R-27 and other innovations.


          Offered.
          On July 29, 2019, the Indian news agency ANI reported, citing sources in the Indian government, that the Indian side had signed a contract with Russia for the purchase of a significant consignment of R-27 medium-range air-to-air guided missiles in the amount of Rs 1500 crores (about Rs 217,5 , 30 million dollars). The missiles are designed to arm the Su-XNUMXMKI fighters of the Indian Air Force.


          ... The production of R-27 series missiles in Russia is carried out at the facilities of its developer - JSC "State Machine-Building Design Bureau" Vympel "them. II Toropov "(Moscow), which is part of the Tactical Missile Armament Corporation (KTRV).

          Earlier in June 2019, it was also reported that the Indian government approved the planned purchase of 700 more air-to-air guided missiles in Russia for Indian Air Force aircraft - 300 R-73E short-range missiles and 400 RVV-AE medium-range missiles.

          It should be noted that the previous large contract for the purchase of R-27 series missiles was concluded by India with Ukraine - in 2013, the Ukrainian side implemented a contract worth $ 246 million for the supply of 400 missiles of this series to the Indian Air Force (180 R-27ER1, 180 R-27ET1 and 40 educational) produced by the Kiev state holding company "Artem".

          https://bmpd.livejournal.com/3722287.html

          A colleague of diana_mihailova said with reference to the new head of the Kiev State Enterprise "State Joint Stock Holding Company" Artem "(part of the state concern" Ukroboronprom ") Vladimir Zimin that in July 2019, State Enterprise GHVP" Spetstechnoexport ", also part of" Ukroboronprom ", signed contracts for the supply to India of medium-range R-27 air-to-air missiles in the amount of $ 221 million and control and testing equipment for the R-27 missiles (PPPR "Gurt-M") in the amount of $ 26 million - and that, and other production of GHK "Artem".


          It is worth noting that at the same time India contracted 300 R-27R1 / ER1 and R-27T1 / ET1 missiles in the amount of $ 217,5 million in Russia - produced directly by the developer of these missiles - JSC "State Machine-Building Design Bureau" Vympel "them. II Toropov "(Moscow), which is part of the Tactical Missile Armament Corporation (KTRV).

          SJSC "Artem" (Kiev) has been the main serial manufacturer of R-27 missiles since Soviet times.

            Yes, I also read this news in LJ bmpd, but here the sutta is that "Pennant" could not do exactly more competitive offer specifically regarding this order. Therefore, we can conclude that the Indians are counting on getting from the "Artyomov" P-27s something that "Vympel" did not offer.
            And since the contract for Vympel does not provide for the supply of conditional R-27AR, and Radionix, in turn, has recently advertised its new IR / AR / PAR GOS under R-27, from which it can be assumed that the Indians are interested in R- 27 in the version with their GOS.
            But this, of course, is purely my assumptions.

          The 27T missile is very specific in its application, the 27P missile is outdated long ago and cannot be launched by itself, and all the radars that can control it are exclusively Russian (Soviet) ones, and all Ukrainian "improvements" are not supported by them. And if by AR is meant a rocket 27 with an active radar seeker, then there is not a single version of the radar that could use it.

          With "Vympel" probably the kickbacks are not so big, but with 404 arias they will dance Jimmy Jimmy acha acha, then the rockets will be laid on the bare ground under the vines and when they rot they will whine that the rockets are bad and do not fly.

        The advance (or full payment) will be divided equally between the seller (contractor) and the buyer (customer).
        The products may not be supplied, and when the next stage comes (other bosses in India sit in their chairs), then in 404 everything will change and the contractor will be bankrupt and pilfered by screw, brick by brick, three times.
        The only thing that can interfere with the deal is the proportions of the division, that is, the greed of the parties smile Therefore, most likely, they will not agree in the end. smile

      If there are only eight, then just the same is not difficult.
      Ukraine and Russia disappear. Probably China is also disappearing - they will probably be more likely to re-equip for some of their own products.
      Poland is re-equipping with American planes, they don't need it.
      Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan - have them in homeopathic quantities, the latter will also probably buy TSA from Russia, along with airplanes.
      Remains Algeria, India, Malaysia. Since we are talking about a large contract and real money, it is most likely either India or Algeria.

      On June 7, 2021, during the visit of the Minister of the Armed Forces of France Florence Parley to Indonesia, the military departments of the two countries signed an agreement of intent (Letter of Intent) regarding the purchase of 36 new French Dassault Rafale fighters by Indonesia.


      They did not have time to shoot the available ammunition for the supplied Su-30s. And they certainly would not have bought 200 million new missiles. 99% India. Only she can objectively master such a scale.

    The guided missile is designed to destroy air targets at any time of the day - at target speeds up to 3500 km / h, and overload up to 8g. The missile layout provides for modularity, which facilitates modernization. Modifications of the R-27 are in service with the air forces of 29 countries.
    Now SJSC "Artyom" produces four modifications of the R-27 (R-27ER1, R-27R1, R-27ET1, R-27T1). The most advanced R-27ER1 has a launch range of 95 km. To defeat targets, a universal warhead weighing 29 kg is used. The R-27ER1 version is equipped with a semi-active radar head with radio correction. It is worth noting that in 2019 representatives of the Artyom State Holding Company announced work on a new modification of the R-27 and new GOS - including active ones. Tests of promising samples are scheduled for 2021.

    I can't help but write a number of clarifications:
    - launch range to 95 (110) km., Since this range for the maximum speeds of convergence of the fighter and the target, and at medium altitudes,
    - a universal warhead, in what sense is a universal warhead with rod striking elements, ideal for an aircraft-type target, but less effective for missile-type targets.
    - "Artem" produces 4 modifications. I don’t know, someone needs a small missile not "E", especially a radio one. She's definitely outdated in the first place.

    And where did Artyom get the passive head (PRGS) in Ukraine, it was not released, only in Omsk.

      Are you sure that Artyom in the USSR and the current Artyom in Ukraine are one and the same legal entity? The current Artyom has nothing to do with the organization that received the documentation under the USSR. This is the first thing. And secondly, even obtaining an official license for production does not at all mean the transfer of copyright, unless otherwise stipulated in a separate agreement. So from a legal point of view, the current Artyom is 100% a pirate. And even minor alterations of the product are not grounds for obtaining an AP.
