New mining systems "Agriculture" worked out "blocking mining"

22

Engineering troops conducted a special exercise in preparation for the West-2021 strategic maneuvers. Practicing the actions of engineering units together with the Airborne Forces and the military police took place at the Mulino training ground in the Nizhny Novgorod region.

A video of the exercise has appeared on the web. The video was posted on its YouTube channel by TK "Zvezda". The description of the video says that during the exercises, the military used the latest robotic systems Uran-6 and Uran-14, as well as remote mining equipment.



The Ministry of Defense, commenting on the past exercises, said that the engineering troops for the first time used a remote method of "blocking mining". To install mixed minefields, new mining systems "Agriculture" were used, as well as the promising universal minelayer UMZ-K "Klesh". Engineering units have worked out the technique of directing the enemy into traps by installing blocking minefields. Passages in the enemy's minefields were made by the "Serpents Gorynychi" in service.


(...) when performing certain elements of the exercise, the military personnel used new samples of engineering ammunition, including promising anti-roof mines PTKM-1R

- Said the press service.

In total, over 8 thousand servicemen and 1,5 thousand units of equipment were involved in the exercises.

The new "Agriculture" mining system allows you to create minefields in especially dangerous areas at a distance of 5 to 15 km according to a given scheme, ie. any configuration. The system lays a minefield of any complexity, including those with ready-made passages for its troops.

    Something in the statements of the representative of the engineering service, I did not hear this word FOR THE FIRST TIME. This method of installing minefields is being practiced in all more or less large exercises and everyone is used for this, up to helicopters and airplanes. Another thing is that it is possible for the FIRST TIME that new complexes are engaged in these trainings, like the same "Agriculture"

      Sooner or later, everything happens "for the first time" ..... But the option itself: to drive the enemy to the "set point" (where art and army turntables can cover it - this is already SERIOUS !!

        Well, in general, this method has been used since centuries ... "fire bag" is called

            Damn, who comes up with such names for the technique?
            Abroad: Tomahawk, Dragon, Dubina ...
            In Russia: Slingshot, Acacia, Baby, Buratino ...
            Here is Agriculture for the mining complex.

                It's true. But if a catchy and emotional name is attached, then that's fine too.

              I don’t know how today, but in the past years, the name of new weapons and military equipment was chosen by the method of random numbers (words, names, etc.) and only in isolated, very rare cases, at the request of certain individuals and organizations.

      Well, romanticism could be found in the teachings in the 70-80s. last century! Imagine a picture: a ZILok is driving across a field with a trailer in the rear ... a sapper soldier sits in the trailer and watches as mines (TM-57, TM-62, TM-89 ...) are laid on the ground ... in cigarette teeth ... romance! babbling! fellow

        Yeah, in the USSR, a system similar to "Agriculture" was located on ZiLka, UMP was called

        And there was a trailer

          We had one in our unit. Here it seems like we are talking about the fact that the new systems provide more accurate mining, more quickly and at greater distances!
          Maybe he’s wrong - he’s not a sapper himself ...

    even I am a senior sergeant of the reserve of the KODVO engineering troops, military unit 44605, commander of the engineering troops of the District, Major General Maksimov .. I remember how we were doing this in the 80s)

      The journalists again understood everything wrong and wrote even more wrongly.
      Of course, this was not the first time the troops did blocking mining. This is complete nonsense.
      Probably the author wanted to say that for the first time it was done in large quantities, it was done in large quantities by the Tick and was done in large quantities with new ammunition.

    As far as I understand, "Agriculture" is a MLRS with missiles equipped with warheads in the form of mines?
    And what's new here? Such warheads have long been in the Tornado, and in the Hurricane, and in the Grad.
    As a student, he himself, in practice, walked around the polygon and collected them for dispersion statistics.
    Now it turns out that they shortened the rocket a bit and made a separate machine?
    It turns out that chemists have their own separate MLRS, miners have their own.
    What about the "zoo"?
    Who is not yet covered? Signalers, tankmen, cavalrymen. ...?

    The system has become more long-range, has received new ammunition equipped with a new generation of mines, but this is not the most important thing.
    It is more important that it received modern elements of the automation system, from topography and navigation, to elements of command and control systems. This also reduces the time from setting the task to its completion, and the task is performed accurately. In principle, if the same ACS elements are installed on old people like the same UMP, their efficiency will also increase significantly. In principle, all this was already implemented in something and somewhere, now it is just a more modern level.

    And now, my young nature lovers, let's talk about ticks! Those who like to walk into the forest in helmets and pots should be reminded that ticks do not climb onto tree branches and do not wait for the gored heads of those who like to wander in the bushes! No .... in fact, ticks gather at the paths (roads), where "everyone" roams about and waits for them! How this happens, we will tell you below!


    Russian engineering units in Mulino (Nizhny Novgorod region) have worked out the skills of installing mixed minefields with promising means of installing mine-explosive obstacles. According to the Department of Information and Mass Communications of the Ministry of Defense, the universal minelayer UMZ-K "Klesh" was used for the first time.

    Also, when performing individual elements in the exercises, new samples of engineering ammunition were used, including the newest anti-roof mines PTKM-1R.
