Mi-28NM helicopters will be armed with some of the most powerful anti-tank missiles in the world

29

The Mechanical Engineering Design Bureau (KBM), which is part of the High-Precision Complexes holding, is modernizing the missile weapons Russian army aviation... Also, soon the Mi-28NM and Ka-52M helicopters will be armed with some of the most powerful anti-tank missiles in the world.

According to the agency TASS, this information was announced by the general designer of the enterprise Valery Kashin at the international exhibition EDEX 2021.



We are talking about guided missiles (UR) 9M123M "Chrysanthemum", which are armed with self-propelled anti-tank systems. Now they are being adapted for attack helicopters.

Kashin said that the Mi-28NM, which will be exported, will be equipped with such missiles upon completion of flight tests of the guided weapon system.

With the help of "Chrysanthemum" you can destroy the most modern existing and developed armored vehicles, as well as various fortifications and structures. With its help, they effectively strike at enemy manpower, surface and air targets moving at low speeds.

UR "Chrysanthemum" has been in production for several years. As noted by Kashin, the Mi-28NM will receive such missiles in a standard production version.

He also said that the predecessors of this weapon, the UR 9M120 "Attack", will not be modernized.

    Modern conflicts dictate requirements for long-range target detection and the most accurate tracking, as with our shock turntables?

      Like recently they talked about a new rocket with a range of 15 km and a warhead of 25 kg
      will obviously be more interesting than chrysanthemum

        Yes, and 10 km is no longer bad. And break through more than a meter of armor. Hello Abrams.

        They spoke and even tested the Hermes-A on the Ka-52k.
        But this missile is 2-3 times heavier than Attack. But its advantage is its high speed and high-explosive warhead with a charge of 50kg (in case of hitting the tank's DZ, this DZ does not protect, but helps in its destruction).
        Its ground analogue, with a range of 100 km (4 times), was named "Klevok-D2"

        product 305 - a more versatile air-to-ground missile, which is reflected in its abbreviation LMUR (light multipurpose guided missile)
        write, was developed as an analogue of the English Brimstone

        Chrysanthemum - specialized anti-tank missile

          No. Completely incorrect information. This is the prototype of another foreign rocket.

    And for the old Mi-24 and Mi-35 (which are the most massive) "Chrysanthemum" will not work?

      It seems to me that the tasks of the Mi-24 and Mi-35 are completely different than the tasks of the Mi-28 and Ka-52, as I saw the video from Syria, it is the latter that are engaged in the identification and destruction of armored vehicles (shahidmobiles) and enemy vehicles, while the former are more as support for the infantry, although if it is necessary to destroy the transport, they just have two blocks for the NAR and anti-tank missiles Shturm, Attack. The Mi-24, for example, can even boast air-to-air missiles and drop bombs.

      ========
      Firstly, the Mi-35M (not to be confused with the "export" version of the Mi-24, which also had the designation Mi-35 with different indices), which are in service with the Army Aviation - the vehicles are quite new - have been arriving since 2010!
      Secondly, the Mi-24 (even taking into account the Mi-35M) has long ceased to be the most popular in the AA Air Force - there are only 100 and 65 of them, respectively. The most massive are the Ka-52 (140 units) and Mi-28 (over 100) ...
      Somewhere like that! Although the numbers could have become outdated a little ... But in fact, the Mi-8 and its modifications hold the "palm" - there are more than half a thousand of them) ...

      Do they have optical sighting systems? Millimeter-wave radars?

        Greetings, Vladimir! hi
        All Mi-35Ms and most of the Mi-24s are equipped with optoelectronic ATGM guidance systems ... 9M123 ATGM guidance radars are optional - this is a "cherry on top" (an additional option that ensures all-day and all-weather use).
        It's another matter: are the characteristics of the OLS used on the Mi-35M and Mi-24 sufficient for effective work with "Chrysanthemum"? This is the question! what

          And this is also what I meant! (the monkey is fishing, but there are no fish next to it ... a crocodile is swimming nearby ... He thinks: now I will ask her: "bite?" ... and she answered: "no, it does not bite!" ... Then I to her: "but who will bite at such an ugly thing?" ................)
          But about the radar ... "Chrysanthemum-B" is a 2-channel ... and it is more expensive than a single-channel ... Why pay more if you can aim only by a laser beam? request

      I think no. I am very familiar with MI-24. Most likely no. Unless they were modernized after me, which I really hope.

    Good news, but you need to carry an HF radar of the MM range - somewhere around 90 gigahertz for guidance.

      What for? The Mi-28NM has an overhead radar station. Why does he need a second?

      No, not in the zone. Helicopters carry out an ATGM attack at ultra-low altitudes, hiding in the bends of the relief, where the MANPADS calculation will simply not notice them from a distance of a couple of kilometers.

    Again "remote-controlled" (laser-beam) missiles ... And how many are there? "Chrysanthemums", "Attack", "Whirlwind" ... And these are just the "newest" ones! Although ... maybe let them be? They are united by laser-beam guidance! In principle, they can be guided using a single optical sighting system! And the fact that there are already 3 types of missiles ... Duc, perhaps, "not from a good life"! Maybe in the future there will be one type ...

      Well, from the working and serial only "Storm" with "Attack". "Whirlwind" is more of a failed project.
      So, one.
      Now, for the sake of increasing the striking power, the 9M123 (Chrysanthemum complex) and the new "Product 305" are being introduced.
      The attack helicopter of the RF Armed Forces will have three complexes of guided missile weapons: Shturm \ Attack, Chrysanthemum \ 9M123, and "305".

    Based on Bayraktar's motives, it turns out that it is better to buy not what has the best performance characteristics, but what has been tested in real databases and has excellent video frames of defeat and high-quality video editing of videos with viral distribution on the network. So it's not enough to develop and implement in order to sell, you need to learn PR!

    In short, Chrysanthemums + LMUR will greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the helicopter and its firepower. The sooner they begin to equip them, the more pleasant it is ..

      We do not make fire-and-forget rockets. We make shot and hit rockets.

        Rather, "fired and received in response" in the event of a collision with someone more impressive than the SARatovskih bearded men. And "spikes" and "hellfires", by the way, perfectly fit, better than our "assaults" and "attacks".

    Such a tank destroyer will fly out,
    and kamikaze copters from aliexpress met him,
    and drones with missiles.
    What, it will be interesting to fight back? Thing dear
    flew against tanks, one or two if lucky.
    But the kamikaze doesn't even need a control channel.
    Hang yourself in the air and explode when touched.
    I drove Starcraft at one time (the game is like this).
    Personally, I am against "dreadnoughts" (heavy
    such an airplane), 15 years ago,
    sculpted a pack of fighter airplanes and sent them to slaughter.
    While they have worked, a new pack is ready.
    And no ground operations with tanks and infantry.
    Some of the fighters are taking out the infrastructure
    someone is chasing doctors and gunners.
    So, thinking out loud.
    Thank you for listening.
