"Rostec" increased the production of loitering ammunition and MLRS "Tornado-S"

Rostec has increased the production of Tornado-S multiple launch rocket systems and loitering ammunition for use in a special operation. This was reported by the press service of the state corporation.

The enterprises that are part of Rostec have significantly increased the production of loitering ammunition, we are talking about drones-kamikaze "Lancet" and "CUBE". This was previously reported in the concern "Kalashnikov". The Russian military is actively using strike Drones "Lancet", which have already undergone modernization, taking into account the experience of using in combat operations. In addition, the production of MLRS "Tornado-S" caliber 300 mm has been increased.

We are fully fulfilling our obligations under the state defense order, deliveries in a number of areas have increased many times over. At the same time, we continue to improve our technologies and developments.

приводит RIA News the message of the state corporation.

MLRS "Tornado-S" was developed to replace the Soviet-designed MLRS "Smerch" in the troops. Has 12 rails for 300mm rockets. Unlike the basic "Smerch", "Tornado-S" has an automated guidance and fire control system (ASUNO), which allows you to simultaneously control the firing of the division, automatically calculate data on the target and guide the guide packages in the horizontal and vertical planes. Tornado-S missiles can be corrected in flight, which significantly increased the accuracy of hitting a target at a distance of more than 100 km. The control adjustment system is located directly in the rocket.

"Tornado-S" is the most powerful and long-range MLRS. The range of the missile is up to 120 km. The developers promised to increase it to 200 km. The installation allows you to hit objects to the entire tactical depth of the enemy's battle formations. At the same time, the data of the system can be quickly transferred from one site to another. The complexes are capable of throwing up to 300-500 km per day. MLRS tests took place in 2015.

"Tornado-S" - the most powerful and long-range MLRS. The missile's flight range is up to 120 km. The developers promised to increase it to 200 km.

There was even information about a missile with a range of 250 km in the dimensions of a missile for the Tornado-S MLRS. I hope they will finish it. Well, of course, I’m already tired of repeating that we need loitering ammunition against tanks, the same Leopards, fortifications, with a 20 kg warhead, a simplified analogue of Harop.

"Reflexes" are being brought into tank units in the Donbass ... intensive training of crews in the use of tours is underway ...

[Orange Bigg]

ATGMs are ATGMs, but you need loitering ammunition that destroys tanks and not only tanks in the depths of the front, and not at zero. It doesn’t occur to you to compare the same Lancet-3 with an ATGM, because each of them has its own tasks.

Wasn't this taught in training before?

[Zaurbek]

Not against tanks .... The main problem of Hymarsa and 155mm guns. and supply columns. Under them, OF warheads are enough. With roller balls

One does not interfere with the other. We need a universal, massive and relatively inexpensive tool against tanks as well, otherwise we always have "enough", but as practice shows, Lancet-3 does not take tanks. And a tool a la Harop, albeit simplified, but needed.

[PROXOR]

Two simply remake the warhead ATGM Chrysanthemum, under loitering ammunition. More than one NATO tank will not leave Chrysanthemum.

[shikin]

How to direct loitering ammunition at tanks and other moving targets at such a range: 100-200 km? For television guidance, it can be far away, shine with a laser - from where? "Smart" GOS - will the rocket become golden and what will be the probability of defeat?
But they still need to be detected at such a range - with what and how? And quickly shoot back, otherwise everything will be past - they can leave.

it will be very expensive to spend a large aircraft, the engine is not from a moped, we do not have such industrial capacities to produce rather big aircraft engines in thousands and spend them on one blow

it is more expedient to make shock drones with anti-tank missiles,
Moreover, they have already been developed, it is only necessary to release

[APASUS]

It's time to test the Belarusian Polonaise already. Old Man is no longer afraid of sanctions

[KCA]

There are Chinese missiles in the Polonaise, and only the Belarusian chassis, well, brains, maybe this is the snag

[TermNachTer]

Even though China does not yet want to aggravate relations with the West, they can always say that the missiles were sold before February 23, 2022. Prove otherwise. And apparently, China's neutrality is a thing of the past. They understand that sitting in neutrals will not work.

[KCA]

Hospidya, but who cares how and when the missiles were delivered? Yes, even in the days of the USSR, mattresses only need a reason, the fact that there is nothing behind it does not sway them

[APASUS]

Already officially announced:

The missile system, designated V-200 "Polonaise", was purchased by Belarus from China and later upgraded to the level of V-300VK "Polonaise-M" with a range of up to 300 km and the ability to launch two types of missiles at once with different warheads. Since 2018, this complex has not only entered service with the Belarusian army, but has also been delivered abroad. Belarusian developers emphasize the fact that due to the scientific and technical potential available in the republic, it was possible not only to solve the problem of localizing the production of "Polonaise-M", but also to develop a number of components and algorithms for the navigation and control system for this complex.

[DenD]

I also thought about the Polonaise. Only now, is there the required amount of ammunition for it? As practice shows, only in one direction the daily rate is up to 500 pcs.

[sanches-nk]

The saturation of the front with a large number of these systems will make it possible to radically change the nature of the offensive and defense. Especially if you achieve all-weather target designation and guidance.

[novel66]

And why haven't these tornadoes knocked out all the chimeras yet???

[Sergei N 58912062]

Report the locations of the HIMARS installations - they will knock them out!

[DenD]

MLRS tests took place in 2015.
This is where you should have started. Almost 8 years, produced, it is not clear what. Well, at least now they understand that in the realities of the database, highly accurate ammunition is needed like air. Strikes "on the squares" are a thing of the past, if they are good, then only in the fields to scare the infantry.

[KCA]

War, as you know, is not a war of guns, but a war of economies and resources, they merged Tornadoes, Hurricanes, Grads, went Tornado C and G, until something about Hurricane M1 is heard, although interesting thing like Hymars batch loading

It is not the manufacturers who are to blame, but the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff who did not order them from the manufacturer and personally Siluanov, who did not allocate funds for this. I’m wondering, did Manturov still conclude contracts with factories that build aircraft, or like these, he thinks? And then the producers will be extreme.

[Andy_nsk]

I agree about the Moscow Region and the General Staff, but what does Siluanov have to do with it? I work in production, I imagined that in the absence of components for production, I would blame the chief accountant. Ridiculously simple. If the chief accountant does not pay the bills on time, I will go to the general director to prove that these components are needed. Siluanov is the same accountant, he pays the bills that will be issued, he does not decide what kind of weapon is needed.

Is it not Siluanov who allocates or does not allocate money for contracts?

[Michael]

Factories work in three shifts. Components are 50% Chinese.

[alexey_444]

Unfortunately, expensive toys, but otherwise we will have kaput and of course we need a lot more, otherwise Prigogine complains today, another tomorrow, and the one who does not complain will be left without shells or something. Cheaper prices are needed, the cost-functional analysis during the Second World War made it possible to reduce the cost of the same T-34s, but the Germans could not and lost.

[Evgeny Ivanov_5]

Can you imagine a situation in which, for example, commanders of formations will start bawling on the Internet in the same way as Prigozhin. What will happen when everyone rushes along this road and accuses Prigozhin that everything goes to the Wagners, and the marines die in packs from a lack of ammunition that went to the cook? That's when the orgy will begin.

[Viktorkh]

Tornado-s, precision-guided munitions with a range of 500 km, militarily, and economically feasible.

What is the range of 500 km? What are you talking about?

[prodi]

there is a feeling that since aviation does not fly, then short-range rockets based on ODAB-500 are needed in commercial quantities (for processing the enemy front line before the assault)

[Sebostyuan]

Everything is needed. And the Lancet and Tornado.

We are waiting for the mass use of the analogue of "jamba". The power of the SU-34 and SU-24 with such ammunition will be revealed at times.

[Evgeny Ivanov_5]

An interesting statement against the background of the published trains with the BTR-50p in the NVO zone. So think about where the fake is and who the fake thrower is. Nobody wants to believe anymore.
