Kharkov modernization of military equipment

78
Everyone knows very well Kharkiv Engineering Design Bureau for them. Morozov as a KB with a large history in production tanks, everyone is also well aware of the design bureau’s innovations - these are combat units like the Oplot tank, the Yatagan tank, the T-80UD tank, the ATLM repair and recovery vehicle, the BTR4 armored personnel carrier, the DOZOR-B armored personnel carrier, the BTR-3U armored personnel carrier. But, besides this, the Kharkov Design Bureau makes excellent upgrades to equipment that has long served its purpose. I want to introduce you to this technique.

So,Heavy combat infantry vehicle BMT-72 - modernization of the T-72







Heavy combat infantry vehicles (BMT) are intended for combat operations as part of tank units and subunits, being with them in the same battle formations, as well as independently. In this case, the paratroopers can fire from the car or parachute and continue the battle on foot. The use of BMT, possessing weapons, protection and maneuverability, the same as that of tanks, provides close cooperation on the battlefield of tanks and gunners, paratroopers with the most complete use of the strengths of these types of troops. The fire control system (FCS) and the BMT’s armament ensure the detection and destruction of enemy armored vehicles and infantry as effectively as the tank control system.

BMT can be used in the offensive and defense, in the conduct of large-scale hostilities and in the zone of local conflicts or in the conduct of peacekeeping operations.

Tank T-55AGM





In order to improve all the main combat, technical and operational characteristics, the following has been established on it:
• Engine compartment with 5TDFM engine
• Improved undercarriage
• Automated motion control system with steering wheel
• Additional passive protection, built-in dynamic protection, optoelectronic countermeasure system, new fire fighting equipment
• Modern fire control system with dual control from the commander's seat
• Automatic loader
• Anti-aircraft installation of a closed type
• The new gun can be 125 mm or 120 mm caliber at the request of the customer.

Tank T-55M8A2 Typhoon





KMDB together with Desarrollos Industriales Casanave SA has developed a modernization project for the Peruvian T-55 tank, called the T-55M8A2 Typhoon. This upgrade allows you to bring the tank T-55 to modern tanks on its main characteristics.

Modernization of the armored personnel carrier BTR-50





The aim of modernization is to increase the characteristics of firepower and mobility. During the modernization of weapons, one of two variants of the combat module is installed, consisting of:
• 30 mm automatic gun
• 7,62 mm machine gun
• anti-tank missile system (ATGM) and automatic grenade launcher.

During the modernization of the power plant, the power plant with a Russian-made B-6 engine is replaced with a Ukrainian-made power unit with a UTD-20 engine.

During the modernization of the power transmission (produced in conjunction with the modernization of the power plant), the planetary gearbox with the GOP is installed instead of the one installed with the B-6 engines. As a result of modernization is achieved:
• increasing firepower and expanding tactical capabilities;
• reduction of fuel consumption;
• increase in specific power.

Modernization of armored personnel carriers BTR-70 and BTR-80



The modernization of the power plant and weapons of the vehicle BTR-70.

Instead of the Russian-made ZMZ-4905 carburetor engines, the UTD-20 diesel was installed in Ukraine. Instead of a KPVT machine gun of 14,5 caliber mm, a KBA-2 gun of 30 mm caliber is installed.

The installation of the four-stroke six-cylinder V-shaped diesel engine UTD-20 allowed to improve the mobility characteristics and to modernize the power compartment of the fleet of vehicles BTR-70, which are in service with Ukraine, by the enterprises of Ukraine.

Comprehensive tests conducted at the KMDB test site confirmed the effectiveness of the mobility characteristics of an armored personnel carrier with a UTD-20 diesel engine, while all other characteristics of the BTR-70 remained unchanged. On 25% increased power reserve at the same volumes of fuel due to a significant reduction in fuel consumption.

Increased vehicle permeability in heavy road conditions due to an increase in engine torque.

KMDB im.A.A. Morozova has developed and tested an efficient cooling system on the machine, which allows it to operate at high temperatures (up to + 55 ° C) without any restrictions.

Installing a KBA-2 X-gun of the 30 caliber mm allows you to increase the range and effectiveness of shooting.

Modernization of the multipurpose light armored tractor MT-LB



State Enterprise “Kharkiv Engineering Design Bureau named after A.A. Morozova ”proposes the modernization of the MTLB to ensure effective firepower through the installation of a weapon module, including the 30-mm cannon, 7,62-mm machine gun, 2 sight, as well as a smoke / aerosol curtain system.

Also, the Malyshev Plant is offered for serial production a program for the modernization of T-54, T-55, T-59, T-62 tanks, which are in service with many countries.

    All of the above shows that the main activity of the Malyshevites is the modernization of the Soviet legacy ... The question is, the price of modernization? Will it be less than the price of a new model of military equipment, which can be upgraded in the future ... in contrast to the already "modernized" one, and in which this potential has already been almost fully used ...
    In this regard, I was interested in the modernization project of the 70 armored personnel carrier using the BMP1,2 - UTD20 engine and a new combat module, which is clearly aimed both at the domestic market of Ukraine and the external one. I think it would be nice for our specialists to present their project for the modernization of this machine to the foreign market ...

      not every state can afford to buy the latest models of armored vehicles. request T-55 is in service in more than 40 countries around the world. These countries are far from the richest. and this (and other similar) modernization will increase the level of combat and operational characteristics of tanks for a relatively low price

            It’s not the name of the BMP / BTR-T business. It’s more correct to call it this way. The main team, as a private initiative, continues to improve this model-direction.
            We have a PR campaign in Russia called BMPT. (((They even distorted the original meaning of the name, instead of BMP-T (heavy, supporting tanks.)))
            There is no information about the BTR / BMP-T. And the T-54/55/62/72 hulls continue to be scrapped. The main re-arrangement, the nanca has already been tested at KhBTRZ.
            Or create your own technology. I think they already exist, but in the metal, someone is not going to create them.

      Kurganmashzavod is engaged in the modernization of BMP-2 and BMP-3. Among other things, the BMP-2 is equipped with a UTD-23 engine with 400 horseshoes, and the BMP-3 has a UTD-32T engine (660 hp). http://www.kurganmash.ru/
      I think this is not a problem for other factories either; there would be a desire for the military to purchase this equipment.
      And to upgrade the BTR-70 while the BTR-82 is being purchased for the army, and even on the eve of the BTR’s purchases on the basis of a single platform, it probably doesn’t make sense (except for an outside buyer)

      Each combat vehicle designed in the USSR has the potential for modernization, and most importantly - an economic niche. Even the T-55 will fight for itself wherever in Samali (or who is fighting there now) if it is equipped with modern units. And the price ... it will not be more expensive than a new tank, and it will only be inferior to purely modern models.

      No, why? Kharkiv residents work, well done, they think, old people are pulling up young people. Given the utter ruin in the defense industry, they survive as best they can, despite all the efforts of the authorities to trample and crush under themselves. Kharkov is traditionally strong with engineering personnel. In all of Ukraine there are not as many qualified technical universities as in Kharkov. The intellectual capital of Ukraine. And people in Kharkov are good, mostly Russians. And the distance to the Russian border is not more than 30 kilometers, and to the large Russian city of Belgorod, 70 kilometers in a straight line. So do not talk about Georgia please, this is a Russian city, Slobozhanshchina.

    Absolutely accurate definition! good
    So far, everything depicted is nothing more than an advertisement.
    And the reason for the futility is by no means two-stroke diesel engines (5tdf and others), which (for lack of others) put on everything that moves and has a chance of selling.
    And, of course, it’s not that Kharkov engineers (real ones, which remained over the years of unrest) are less advanced than their counterparts in the West or in Russia.
    It is just that Ukraine is needed as a supplier of raw materials and semi-finished products, and not as a serious competitor in the arms market.
    In order to create something fundamentally new, expensive R&D, investments for personnel restoration, cooperation with Russian design bureaus, which are the closest on the topic, are needed, i.e. public policy. She is not.
    Therefore, there is no main demand for the Kharkov BTT and the Malyshev plant on a scale of at least 10-15% of the Soviet ones.

                        to shoot as much as one wants was not a purely physical opportunity - the lack of ammunition (with the exception of NZ in the warehouse). Yes, and home for the weekend for 600 km you won’t roll too much

                You should understand that Ukrainian troops in general correspond to the region’s armored forces. Of course, I would like to transfer all tank brigades to BM Bulat. But there will be an imbalance between neighbors. A tank of type 64BV does not ask for a meal and may well compete with the Polish RT-91. Yes, and not tanks decide everything on the battlefield. Now, when the Poles will buy another Leo2A4 brigade, then you should think about it.

                I will not argue with you. Anything can happen. But six months ago I saw a mixture of PARMA with DARM (because of the brigade system, the "regimental artillery workshops" were expanded. So everything was there. Even the copper winding on the electric motors and the machine for them also worked. There were problems with the spare parts - all Chinese (native dragged) - but the set, although the machines are stored in a cropped shelf, they are quite workable.

Checkers are given a good bonus for major violations detected (poor Odessa Academy every month a new check). On the other hand, the cadets are taught exactly what military affairs I could only dream of when I was them. And those who studied at the OISV in the mid-90s in the early 2000s will remember their chief, General Trots, with a "kindly quiet word", because of whom those graduates had to be taught anew in the army.

                What's the point? The Turks still have "Phantoms" flying. And in Ukraine there are still about 2oo MiG-29s in reserve. You have enough strength to reflash them yourself. The engine can be developed if necessary. When the Chinese offered to assemble the L-15 and J-10 in Odessa, the Ukrainian side did not want to install Chinese components, and therefore did not agree on their counterparts.

    Everything is correct. But it is bitterly disappointing that during the collapse of the USSR, the established chain of engineering, technical and design development of the state was interrupted for years. Now, either we are modernizing promising weapons designs or we are pulling out Soviet research that has not yet been sold by the dealers of the market bazaar. If Harkovchan succeeds, something new is good. If Russia and Ukraine were to "unite our efforts again, this would be a class."

    So what? Ukraine is not Russia and stands more backwards to Russia than in front. Repairs - well, good (for them), what do we care? Ukraine is not yet an enemy to us, but it is striving for enemies. This means that we must take all this into account and build our own technical base - anyway, the Ukrainian military-industrial complex is cut off from us. Until that time, until Ukraine becomes "on a friendly footing" with Russia, all these beautiful things in Russia can cause nothing more than - caution, at best - simple curiosity.

      Better first. But still depends on the customer. You see the DShKMT machine gun (not even remote) on the tower - that means the customer is from central Africa. Ukraine can produce 100 mm BOPSs, which knock out early versions of the T-72 and the US-English second-hand. For Africa should be enough. If you did this, then there was such a request.

True, I have a question - is it not too tight for the loader (is the T-64 lower case than the T-55?)? If the case is the same height, the machine has a right to exist. About DShK - most likely they just left what it was on the T-55.

              Thanks for the video, here you are right. In this case, another moment is playing, the T64 has a larger shoulder strap, if you look closely, a welded new shoulder strap is visible on the hull, so there is enough space for the DA.

                  Due to the fact that the diameter of the turret is slightly wider than the hull, inserts were welded to the sides for its installation

                        In "Technology and Armament" there was an article devoted to improving the protection of Soviet tanks. There, the introduction of the Ministry of Health was explained, among other things, by the impossibility of reducing the height of the tank when manually loading it. it will be extremely difficult for the loader to work bent over. The T-55 turret is visually larger than that of the T-64, but the T-64 may have a lower hull.

                        Surely I will not say, but the case is unlikely to be lower. In T-55-62, the driver is sitting on a flat seat, head resting on a rubber gasket on the hatch. In the T-64, the driver is not lying flat, and also, the body should be the same in height (maybe a little lower due to the deflection of the bottom at the location of the carrier).
                        In the T-55, the loader is standing on a pole rotating with the tower (above the torsion bars). That is, the height from the floors to the tower roof. In Leopard 2, it is 165 cm. In Abrams, it is comparable. I think in the modernized tank the height of the working area is comparable to Leo and Abrams, but lower than in the T-55.

    There is one conclusion from this article - It is amazing how Ukrainian tank building is still alive with the active desire of the state to completely destroy it !!!

    Maybe it’s good that we concentrated on modernization - all the same, if there is an opportunity to better solve problems by small means ... Soviet times when there was just enough left !!!

    And so they save - and then all the money saved on Mercedes will be allowed !!! :))) Already on what, but not a single boss saves on this !!! :)))

                        experts predict a balance of payments surplus based on the results of the first quarter of 2013.
                        "The growth of exports of goods amounted to 8,1% y / y, the main factor of which was the export of food products (+ 31,5%) and metallurgy (+ 3,1%). Imports of goods decreased by 7%, which is explained by 40% - m fall in imports of mineral products ("warm" February made it possible to import less natural gas). According to the financial account, its surplus was ensured by the placement of Eurobonds by the government of Ukraine (billions), "says Igor Putilin, head of the analytical department of the investment company Art Capital.
                        At the same time, according to him, the positive balance of payments helped repay the IMF loan, RBC-Ukraine reports.
                        "The positive balance of payments made it possible to repay the IMF loan (4 million) and to increase reserve assets (by 3 million on operations)," he added.
                        Dmitry Sologub, head of the analysis and research department of Raiffeisen Bank Aval, predicts that the balance of payments surplus will be observed until the end of the first quarter.
                        “The balance of payments surplus recorded in January in the amount of almost $ 400 million was caused by a drop in demand for foreign currency, as well as the inflow of foreign capital to Ukraine. In February, this was facilitated by an additional placement of $ 1 billion of Eurobonds of 2012. Against the background of a fall in demand for foreign currency, I think that by the end of the quarter we will see a surplus, "- said the expert.
                        Recall that according to the NBU, the surplus of the balance of payments of Ukraine in February 2013 amounted to $ 1,297 million against a deficit of $ 55 million a year earlier.

                        Are you planning to have a share in the oil business? Or can a high price for fuel inside Ukraine be beneficial for you? Fuel is clogged in the calculation of most consumer goods.

                        Remind who is the author of the current Russian-Ukrainian agreements on the base gas price. The price that Yanukovych and Azarov used to build on, extending the agreement on the stationing of the Black Sea Fleet, linking a discount to this. Is it not the great Ukrainian patriots Yushchenko and Tymoshenko? And why were these patriots not satisfied with the ridiculous price of Kuchma's apparatus compared to the current ones? Is it the direction of the "rollback"?

                        There is no need to exaggerate either, ridiculous price, ridiculous transit. And ridiculous price should be considered in comparison with the market price at that time.

                        Well, nothing is sitting, maybe the contract will be revised. While we are reducing import,

                        Also, do not forget that the price of gas is tied to the price of oil, so the hope that its price will fall on world markets is the right position.

                        Again the evil blackmailer Putin ... wassat Especially when you consider that the contract was NOT REQUIRED to renegotiate, the extension of the previously concluded one would have been quite enough. And there were all the possibilities for this. But this is not the point, this muddy story again shows the relationship of FIGURANTS who deeply do not care about everything except their own interests. What kind of "popular aspirations" are there ... All the more so - of a neighboring state ... request

                        And who sets this price, maybe a supplier? Or a consumer? Please note that the oil exchange does not sell oil. Futures are traded, i.e. elementary financial speculation. As, in fact, the vast majority of exchanges. They determine the PRICE of everything in a row. Guess from whose interests they come from ours with you? Or all the same?

                        You know too little about the economy, including the mechanisms of exchange speculation. Russia, too, by supporting Syria and Iran, pumping up destabilizing factors in the region of the Middle East and the Persian Gulf, is playing a role in raising oil prices. But now it will have to shake and go down.

    Well done Kharkovites! Modernization of technology is a very interesting market in which you need to be able to work.
    Our Tagil UVZ generally can’t take foreign orders for the modernization of its own T-72 because of sky-high prices that only our ministry of defense pays for.
    So, the price tag-modernization of the T-72-38 million rubles (nearly 1 million euros) apiece!
    Overhaul consists of: replacing the engine, transmission, chassis, electrical equipment with new ones.
    Let's start: a new motor (free sale, ChTZ production) V-92 -1 million rubles (cheaper at wholesale), a new hodovka-even 1 million rubles, boxes — even another 500 tr, electrics - Well, I don’t know, maybe even a few million.
    Total costs for 1 tank, from 5 to 10 million (max)! The profit of the plant is 300%!
    There was not a single fool in the world, except for the Russian Ministry of Defense, willing to pay such money.
    And not found.
    We support the domestic manufacturer-native Uralvagonzavod!
    We feed the giant (half the city takes) unprofitable monster more than our money!
    Uralvagonzavod votes for Putin! Hurray, comrades!

    The author simply unveiled a tank booklet advertising booklet. Judging by the sandy color of the paint, many samples are for Africa and the East. There, what during the times of the Union was given for nothing, it still lives in huge quantities and is waiting for modernization. So that they would have had money ... now it’s unlikely that they will distribute it for free

    Sometimes it is better to read than to speak (otherwise, the Chukchi is not a reader, but a writer). Where did you find and where did you put the CHARGER in the t-64 (any modification) ??? Well, at least use the wiki - heights 64 cm (without cliff)

    Ukrainians go the wrong way, it’s clear that they are trying to do something, but they don’t have enough money for radical changes, they just don’t want to and do simple fraud. Examples of normal modernization that allows fairly old equipment to be kept up to date are the Israeli Magahi 6 and 7, on one of the modifications they even introduced an ellipsoid tower like the 4 merkava, which is what prevents me from going the same way.

    Kharkov modernization of military equipment.
    BMPV-64 on the chassis of the T-64 tank.

    BMPT-64 on the chassis of the T-64 tank.

    BMP-55 on the chassis of the T-55 tank.

    T-64E.

    BMP-80 on the chassis of the T-80 tank.
    It could have turned out to be a really good BMP, much more secure and more convenient for landing than the BMP-1,2,3.
