The command of the Ground Forces did not refuse to adopt the Pantsir-C1 anti-aircraft missile system.

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation commented on an article in the Izvestia newspaper about the alleged refusal of the Ground Forces Command to adopt the Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft missile system (ZRPK).

The Pantsir-S anti-aircraft missile-gun complex (ZRPK) has been adopted and is already being supplied to the Aerospace Defense Forces.

In September-October of this year, the second installment of the Pantsir-S ZRPK party is expected. The main task of this unit will be to cover the Triumph C-400 anti-aircraft missile systems in combat positions from enemy air attack weapons.

A modification of the Shell-S complex is also being developed for the Ground Forces and the Naval Fleet.

Work is currently underway to adapt the Pantsir-С1 air defense system to the requirements for air defense weapons of general purpose. Upon their completion, a prototype of the complex will be submitted for military trials.

Troop tests of the complex have not yet been conducted. Only after their completion will it be possible to talk about when this complex will begin to enter into service with the Ground Forces.

The existing modification of the Pantsir-S ZRPK fully complies with the requirements for weapons and military equipment of the anti-aircraft missile units of the Air Force and the Aerospace Defense Forces.

      do not believe Izvestia, this newspaper is not the first time to come across such false articles in pursuit of a fleeting rating and at the same time it loses its reputation as a once good newspaper

By the way, the day before on the site how many copies people broke around this news, for and against. but, it turns out, the usual disinformation. Here is an example of the wars of the 6th generation. Does anyone still doubt their reality and routine?

      It is very simple. For the Ground Forces, we need not wheeled, but tracked chassis
      And such a chassis is now being developed. Heavy platform "Armata". Average "Krganets 25" As soon as, so immediately .. And by that time, the complex itself will be brought to mind.

        do not confuse, Kuraghinets-25 and armata is a chassis for other purposes

        and Shell-s1 on the tracked chassis has been around for a long time, it seems to be delivered for Algeria

        chassis Belarusian GM-352
        but according to some information, the MO considers this chassis too expensive, although Tor-m2U is installed on this chassis and it is planned to put Buk-M3 on it

          Where such confidence? The phrase single platform tells you something?
          And what was produced for Algeria, Iran, the Emirates, Oman, Morocco, Syria is not quite the same as for the RF Armed Forces
          Moscow Region believes that massively, foreign equipment (even from Belarusians) WILL NOT be purchased! This creates unified platforms for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation

            theoretically, you can probably put if you want

            however, as far as I know, among the published materials on the topic Kurganets-25, it never slipped that air defense systems would be made on the Kurganets platform, there were bmp, various KShM and EW vehicles were

            but in some interview about Tor-m2u I read that they are completely satisfied with the current Belarusian chassis (um-352) and the possibility of installing Buk-m3 on it is considered, so in this case it’s pointless to install shell-c1 on Kurganets and so already is on a normal tracked chassis.

                    but the army recently put Tor-M2U, which is made on the basis of GM-352,
                    taking into account the fact that both Tunguska and Tor were unified by chassis, then why would Shell-s1 be made on Kurganets?
                    at the same time, I am not saying that it is theoretically impossible or I personally am against such a chassis, but so far there is no reason to believe that there will be no shell and tor on the basis of Kurgan

    In this design, it is suitable for air defense troops, but for the land hunters something else is needed. What they wrote earlier is another duck related to a non-chamotic author. Difficulties were previously with the radar, while the KBP itself did what it needed. And the fact that it does not bring down maneuverable targets is a huge fat ... turkey!

    You need to believe your mind (if any) and logic. Why should the SV abandon the Carapace if it surpasses the famous Tunguzsky in its performance characteristics, it can be supplied both on wheeled and tracked, and its use by several types of troops only increases the serial production of the Carapace, which means it facilitates the problem of supplying spare parts and subsequent modifications. And there is no alternative to it yet. Torah are not bad systems, but still their use is limited to air targets, and here is a missile cannon complex that can cover the columns of its troops not only from the air, but also from the ground enemy. The main thing is not to give him tasks such as conducting street battles, as they put them to the Tunguzians when troops were sent to Grozny in the 1st Chechen. And then they also gave the designers over the head for not justifying the "high trust" of strategists like Grachev

      Well, to repel an attack by a ground enemy, is it more logical to use the BK of another weapon, probably? Have you considered the tasks of shell armor? Each fire defense system has its own tasks and differences in the capabilities of destruction in terms of angular parameters, range and height of destruction of targets.

    Someone explain this phrase
    The main task of this unit will be to cover the S-400 Triumph anti-aircraft missile systems in combat positions from enemy air attack weapons.
    That is, the S-400 can not cover itself?
    The S-400 has a special retractable antenna that detects low-gliding targets at a distance of 40 km, while the Pantsir-S1 has nothing, it simply will not detect it.
    It is incomprehensible to this.
    Explain.

      That is, the S-400 can not cover itself?

      it can, but spending an expensive killer missile designed to destroy planes at great distances (from 135km with a 9m96M missile to 250km with a 48N6DM missile) is expensive, although it is quite possible it is much cheaper to use a short-range type of shell like Shell-C1, whose missile has a meager price compared to s-400 missiles.

      The S-400 has a special retractable antenna that detects low-gliding targets at a distance of 40 km, while the Pantsir-S1 has nothing, it simply will not detect it.

      why should a complex with a range of 20 km see targets near the earth at a distance of 40 km, besides now all such complexes are combined into a single system, which allows you to create a single information space for timely and effective solution of fire missions

      Are you aware that combat the effectiveness of modern air defense systems is approximately 30% +/-
      The super duper fancy "Petriot" of the Israelis could not effectively resist the ancient Iraqi "Scudm". there the efficiency was about 10%
      Their "dome" is sharpened for Kasam missiles (handicraft, which fly straightforwardly) have about 25-30% efficiency
      So, it is necessary to cover the air defense system, from breaking through to the battery of the adversary. The shell is their last chance!

        thirty%? Where does this statistic come from? Those. You want to say that the SAM does not intercept about 30% of the targets? How to count this? Those goals that he has on the radar, or with those that fly at low altitude and are hidden by the landscape?

          From military use, in practice, in the conflicts of recent decades
          It is believed, under ideal conditions, that 1 aircraft requires 2-3 missiles for 100% damage.
          Therefore, a layered air defense system is being built

            As for the consumption of missiles, everything is true, while they usually hit the target from different directions (above and below)


            You are aware that the combat effectiveness of modern air defense systems is approximately 30% +/-

            but what about the probability is not quite
            if you got this number by dividing the unit by the number of missiles, then this is not true, here it is necessary to recall the basics of probability theory

            and so usually the probability of hitting a target of one zur, for example for 9M96M, is 0.7 (according to open data)

    All the unpleasant truth about the "Shell-C1",
    quote.
    At the same time, the radar target tracking system (single-channel) used in the Pantsir-С1 air defense system (single-channel), as shown by calculations and modeling (and even state tests, the results of which are “reliably hidden”), does not provide the required accuracy of missile targeting at the maximum range, even for targets with effective reflective surface 2 square. m and more. Under weather conditions of medium complexity, the optoelectronic channel provides reliable detection and tracking of targets at distances of no more than 12 – 15 km and is also single-channel. In addition, the radar and optoelectronic channels ZRPK "Pantsir-С1" are not parallel, but complementary to each other, does not increase the channel of the complex on the target. As for the cannon canal, due to its insufficient effectiveness of shooting at modern air targets, associated primarily with a low rate of fire, it can only be considered as an auxiliary means of self-defense and fighting mainly against the ground enemy.
