64
Tests of the Zircon hypersonic missile from an underwater carrier have been completed, the test objectives have been achieved. The commander of the Northern fleet Alexander Moiseev.

Speaking at a conference call at the Ministry of Defense, Moiseyev reported that on October 4, 2021, the Zircon hypersonic missile was tested from the Project 885 Yasen multipurpose nuclear submarine Severodvinsk. All systems, including the submarine and the rocket, worked normally and without any remarks. The test objectives have been achieved, and the submarine tests have been completed.



(...) taking into account the previously conducted tests and firing, the Zircon hypersonic cruise missile has confirmed all its characteristics

- reported the commander of the Northern Fleet.

In response, the head of the Ministry of Defense congratulated all those involved in this event on the completion of the missile testing and said that the Zircon would be put into service in the near future.

On October 4, the Severodvinsk nuclear submarine conducted two launches of the Zircon hypersonic missile as part of the tests. The first launch took place from the surface position, the second - from a depth of 40 meters. In both cases, the missile, according to objective control data, hit the targets.

Let us remind you that the contract for the supply of Zircons has already been signed.

        Let's have a drink. It is only important that your head is not dizzy with success. We still have many plans, a lot needs to be done with regards not only to Zircon.
        . It is expected that "Zircons" will go into service on frigates of projects 22350, submarines of project 885M "Yasen-M", as well as on the cruiser "Admiral Nakhimov" and the submarine "Irkutsk", which are undergoing modernization. They plan to replace the heavy anti-ship missile P-700 "Granit", which was put into service back in the 1980s.


        As noted by a researcher at the Center for North American Studies, IMEMO. EAT. Ilya Kramnik, the peculiarity of the movement of the Zircon rocket in the atmosphere is that its speed is many times higher than the fastest anti-ship missiles used today.
        The Zircon flies higher than a traditional cruise missile and faster - now reported at a speed of 2,65 kilometers per second. The maximum speed can be higher. This is about 4 times faster than the fastest anti-ship missiles in use today. For example, "Onyx" moves at a speed of about 700 meters per second. This speed of the Zircon's flight makes it difficult to intercept. And given the fact that the rocket can also maneuver in flight, this complexity increases significantly. The missile dives from a great height to the target, thus, it is in the air defense zone of the formation for a rather short time and it is very difficult to intercept it in this section of the trajectory, "Kramnik said.


        “The missile, coming out from under the water, carries out a flight in airspace, enters the target area and strikes it. For example, a potential enemy is looking for a submarine within a radius of 300-400 miles and does not find it - it is not there. And suddenly they receive hypersonic "goodies", - said Leonkov.

        The expert stressed that today there is no weapon capable of stopping the Zircon.
        “The Americans have stated many times that they have not found the 'antidote' for Zircon. Their last anti-missile SM-3, which develops a speed of up to Mach 3,5, cannot intercept the Zircon - it was created to intercept the Onyx. When the United States creates an anti-missile for the Zircon, Russia will already have another missile in service - even faster and more maneuverable, ”Leonkov is convinced.

        ... The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has conducted large-scale tests of hypersonic weapons. With a difference of several hours from the waters of the White Sea, two hypersonic missiles 3M22 "Zircon" were launched. For the first time, a submarine became the launch pad for these products: they were launched from the Severodvinsk submarine. Moreover, one of the launches was made from under the water. By the end of the year, a decision will be made on the timing of the adoption of the missile into service, as well as on the beginning of the first serial deliveries of these products to the troops. 3M22 can hit sea and ground targets at a distance of over 1000 km. Experts note that it is impossible to protect the existing air defense and missile defense systems from such weapons.

          in my opinion too much.
          1. She is in the dimensions of "Onyx", otherwise she would not fit into 3C14 (UKSK)
          2.Having the same dimensions and weight as the 3M55 (up to 600 km at a speed
          the range of the 3M22 is 3% longer than that of the 55M40 at a speed
          "2,65 km per second" ((7-8 M) vs 884 m / s (M = 2,6)
          It does not happen
          Either ours invented a new fuel with I beats = 700 sec and the density of mercury or interfered with the physical essence of being, maybe
          The resistance force depends on the speed of movement and is proportional to its second degree (Stokes' formula). In contrast to the forces of internal friction, it is often called the force of dynamic frontal resistance:
          Fc = Cxa * S * ro (atm) * V ^ 2/2
          Cxa = Cxr + Cxf + Cxw + Cxi it is the same in "africa"
          therefore, the dynamic drag force of the 3M22 is 3 times greater than that of the 55M9 !!!
          (2650 (m / s) * 2650 (m / s) / 884 (m / s) * 884 (m / s))
          ALMOST ORDER and thrust / beats. the impulse will be required an order of magnitude more, of the same dimensions.
          And if the range is MORE than a thousand, then also count * 2
          Conclusion:

          it was and is and will always be:
          either the speed but at an altitude, or the range (here it is possible even at low altitude, but the most economical echelon for a diesel engine at V = 800-900 km / h) is 10-11 tons meters.

            ja-ja-vw-maybe the same launch container, and the ja-missile itself is a hypersonic glider-of a smaller size? Then, naturally, the flight range of Zircon will be greater than that of Onyx.

              "glider" is something that glides from suborital heights, with V close to 7,9 km / s, under the influence of gravity
              3M22, as I understand it, has a non-detachable missile, the rocket itself is single-stage.
              What's the difference? Before M7-M9 it is necessary to accelerate EVERYTHING, and to overcome the force of gravity and bring to an echelon of 30 km - 50 km.

              this does not happen, with the same dimensions.
              On April 20, 2010, the first flight of the UBB Falcon HTV-2 took place in the United States, the device was launched on board the Minotaur IV launch vehicle from the Vandenberg US Air Force Base in California ...
              Duc Minotaur IV is considered an ICBM MX "peacemaker" with a launch weight of 86 tons, a length of 24 m and a diameter of 2,33
              or remember
              5V28 S-200 air defense system with E-57 in 1991, worked 77 seconds and scored 1832 m / s (6.5M).
              Flight altitude - up to 35 km.
              The engine turned off, braking against the atmosphere reduced the speed and then destruction.
              5V28 is a TWO stepped missile defense system with a mass of 11 m and a starting weight of 7,1 tons. / could hit a large target with a light warhead at a distance of up to 300 km)
              The E-57 was thrown to an altitude of 35 km and accelerated to a speed of 1200 m / s at about a distance of 30 km, the E-57 GPZD turned on and worked for 77 seconds. accelerating from 1200 m / s to 1832 m / s, let 77 sec * 1832 = 141 km
              with our experiments, on HYDROGEN (the best Iud! but not applicable in military affairs) we got 141 + 30 = 190-200 km of range on a 3-stage rocket with a "booster" mass of 7 tons

                How many people say that this does not happen and cannot be. More recently, here at the VO, some said that it was impossible to squeeze a hypersonic missile into the dimensions of a 3S14. The formulas were also given. It was said that "Zircon" is a bluff. And that's how it came out - it is, flies and is put into service! So, with the range, let's see how it is in real life, and not according to the formulas.

                        ... Can you explain to me now on your finger

                        Well, let's try, though on the fingers.
                        You gave examples of American gliders launched by solid-propellant missiles (SAMs) at altitude. The rockets were two-stage.
                        "Zircon" has 2 steps:
                        1) Booster \ starting booster - solid fuel.
                        2) Actually GZUR with a ramjet engine.
                        An air-jet engine (any) differs from a rocket engine in that it uses atmospheric oxygen as an oxidizer, and does not pull in a tank with an oxidizer, except for fuel. It's just to do away with the glider comparisons on TT rockets.
                        The direct-flow VRM has one feature: at speeds above 3M, with a further increase in speed, the fuel efficiency of this type of engine also grows - the specific consumption per kilometer of track. And very seriously. And its fuel efficiency grows in direct proportion to the increase in speed. The faster, the more economical. Why is this so difficult to take advantage of (the benefit of being more economical at high hypersonic speeds?
                        There are two reasons - the temperature barrier \ heating of the leading edges and the body, and the drag (which is the reason for this heating.
                        There are two ways out - to rise higher, where the air is discharged, but there is still enough oxygen for the engine, and to organize effective cooling of the leading edges.
                        Temperature is energy. And if we make this temperature work for some kind of operation to decompose a certain substance into its constituent parts, which occurs with a large absorption of heat ... and as a result of the reaction, we get two in one at once - an effective additive to the fuel that increases its calorie content and ... much more effective cooling of the leading edges, in which this operation will take place. And - voila, what hindered us helps us - cools and increases cravings.
                        This is an old idea, a lot has been written and talked about in its time.
                        Now about the range.
                        If the GZUR has the same mass, drag (approximately) and fuel on board, as a supersonic cruise missile with a ramjet engine, then ... which of them will have the best fuel efficiency?
                        Of course, the GZUR.
                        As a result, on the same amount of fuel, the GZUR will fly farther than the SZR with a ramjet engine. The truth is at a higher altitude. And she needs the upper stage more powerful.
                        So everything is fine with the theory; this does not contradict the law of physics.

                        And the question is, Porutchik, do you know where the monument to your prototype was erected?
                        Hint - rockets were fired in that city too.
                        And maybe even now they are releasing some simpler ones.
                        You won't be from there?

                  But the zur is not with pvd, but with zhrd or rdtt. They do not need an oxidizer.
                  although certainly not a correct rocket calculator. But there is no other.
                  For a rocket with pvd, you need to use the "Trajectory" software package, but ... this is not public access, as I understand it, you cannot use it ?.
                  the ballistic trajectory will be less. The ramjet engine needs an oxidizing agent in the air.

                    I agree with everything, but the higher the speed, the more rarefied the atmosphere the pvd can work, on the graph the trajectory with a jump and passes at an altitude of about 30 km. Most likely the way it is.

            The starting mass of the Zircon is higher than the Onyx - 3,8 tons versus over 4,5 tons. A more powerful booster will push it higher and accelerate it harder, and then a direct-flow engine, whose specific fuel consumption per kilometer decreases with increasing speed. This is theoretically possible. Here are just the declared range of 1000 km. "Zircon" never confirmed - not a single message about a range of more than 450 km. did not have . If this is its real range ... well, let it be 500 - 550 km. , then, in principle, it is also not bad, although not what was stated.

                  maybe M and test, and talk about 3M22?

                    I do not see the connection.
                    gsn captures at a distance of 50-70 km (it depends on the altitude here) flies around the station on the ISN

                    For a stationary target, there can be a simplified seeker - it is lighter, more fuel can be accommodated (but then this is a separate modification), higher echelon and without maneuvering.
                    The anti-ship missile system should maneuver anyway, losing energy, reducing the range, lower echelon.
                    RCC always has a shorter range.
                    It is also possible that 1000 km. for GZUR with special warheads - it is much lighter, echelon 40 km. +, without maneuvering.
                    The GZUR does not fly on PMV.

                    "Onyx-M", which received a maximum range of 800 kilometers

                    Perhaps yes. By analogy, I suggested that the Hindus at exhibitions have repeatedly exhibited the layout of "Brahmos-2", the configuration is the same as that of "Zircon" (which is being painted). So I suggested.

                      The mass of the GOS 3K55 is 85 kg (it is specific in itself, maybe in a cone vz)

                      for ZM-14 ARGS-14E with a diameter of 514 mm and a weight of 40 kg
                      I do not think that 45 kg will give an increase of 500 km

                        If at the maximum echelon, without maneuvering and until the full depletion of fuel with inertial flight ... At such a speed, but from such a height, you can fly a lot by inertia.
                        Soon there will be another launch, this time a salvo from the "Gorshkov", maybe after it something about the practical range will be reported.

      If we collect all the reports, then somewhere 12-14 Zircons were launched, this is official for all the years of testing. And the Americans could hang a satellite over the White Sea? Or they have information only from those who flew in and of course from Maryata.

        What will it give them? They will not be able to discern the appearance of the rocket anyway.
        I don’t know how it is now, but three years ago, the resolution of satellite optics was sufficient only to distinguish a passenger car from a truck. And all these "war stories" about the text in the book or the value of a coin from the realm of Hollywood films, like "Under Siege 2" or "Enemy of the State."

          This is understandable, the most interesting for them is the profile of Zircon's flight, when he switches from a cruising flight to an attack trajectory and how he flies into the side or deck from above. Or, like Granite from the stern, cutting the superstructure in two, for the last time. Granite.

              When the Ukrainians shot down TU 154 from the Opuk test site, the Americans were the first to announce this. I just don't know where they got the information from the ship, the coast or from space. You can say everything. hi

                In 1991, the Americans detected the launches of Scud tactical missiles from DSP infrared satellites, transmitted information to Israel so that they would turn on the sirens, and the population descended into the basements. In 2001, DSPs were also in orbit. They have now been replaced by more modern SBIRS.

          and what gives the "external" appearance?
          you need the composition of the fuel, the organization of the combustion process along the length of the chamber, the air intake (it is from the bottom), the materials of the ends and copings.

      Zircon is everything. Soon it will be routinely reported that a Project 885M nuclear submarine armed with Zircon missiles has been launched from the slipway in Severodvinsk, or a Project 22350 frigate with similar weapons has been launched from the Northern Shipyard's slipway.

      And again I will ask an unpleasant question - what about target designation?
      The rocket was made, and this is very encouraging.
      But without target designation, it's like a gun without a sight. You can shoot "somewhere there", towards the target, but getting there is a separate art.
