In Tula, developed a new grenade launcher


The Instrument Engineering Design Bureau (KBP) has developed a new grenade launcher with a thermobaric warhead "Bour". It was shown at the company's booth as part of the 17 international exhibition of state security "Interpolitex-2013".

Caliber 62 mm
Type of jet
Weight 4.8 kg in combat position
Effective range ~ 650 meters

The Boer rocket launcher is designed and manufactured by the Instrument Engineering Design Bureau (KBP) as a light infantry weapons support Currently, the Boer rocket launcher is being tested in the Russian army and other law enforcement agencies, and is also offered for export.

The Boer rocket launcher consists of two main components - a reusable fire control unit and rocket-propelled grenades in disposable transport and launch containers (TLC).

The fire control unit is made in the form of a plastic case with a pistol grip and a small forearm. It contains a trigger and safety mechanisms and mount for TPK with a grenade. On the left side of the block body there is a bracket for mounting various sights (the standard scope of the PGO-BUR rifle is standard, installation of night and IR sights is also possible).

Rocket launchers for the Boer grenade launcher are currently available in two equipment versions - high-explosive / thermobaric (with a charge of air-fuel explosive, with TNT equivalent of about 6 kg) and high-explosive. Curb weight TPK with a grenade - 3.5 kg. Each grenade at the factory is packaged in a plastic transport and launch container (TPK), hermetically sealed from the ends with rubber caps. The covers are knocked out automatically at the moment of the shot. For firing TPK with a grenade joins the control unit of shooting. After the shot, the empty TPK is removed from the block and ejected. On the grenade trajectory stabilized drop-down tail stabilizers of spring steel. The effective range of shooting reaches 650 meters, the maximum - over 900. The characteristics of the rocket engine allow it to be safe for the shooter to fire at rooms of at least 30 cubic meters (which is approximately equivalent to a living room of 16 sq. M).

        What does it have to do with "And the same DZ, KAZ, etc. on armored vehicles do not stand still."? It is clearly said: "Rocket-propelled grenades for the Bur grenade launcher are currently produced in two versions of equipment - high-explosive / thermobaric (with a charge of a fuel-air explosive, with TNT equivalent of about 6 kg) and high-explosive."

      So this is what this miracle looks like that the GDP spoke to the mattresses when he warned them against the invasion of Syria. Like if mattresses and others like them invade Syria, then Moscow will saturate the Syrian troops with the latest and most effective means of close combat.
      Nut is so long gone, I hope these devices are already being tested, somewhere near Aleppo ... wink

      When the system is exported, there it passes a test on the battlefield, deficiencies are identified, if any are found, they are eliminated !!! And then they take their Army into service!

        Sorry, but in practice - not so often. The same Hashim (RPG-32) for Jordan ... And who is the main operator of the BMP-3 or Su-30?
        And the Jordanians even built a plant. And I do not rule out the possibility that the Jordanians will actively transfer grenade launchers (or already) to the same fighters ... And sooner or later we will see them in Syria.
        As for the identification of shortcomings, this is eliminated at the testing stage. No customer will take a "raw" product. Yes, and abroad (if we talk about technically sophisticated weapons) either a "stripped down" version, or very different from what is assumed for itself.

    ".. Weight 4.8 kg in firing position .." This is only the 1st product, coupled with the control unit. Now let's add three more spare shots in a tube, and what happens (?) - about 16 kg.

      so what. the weight of one Bumblebee, and the shots are 4.and considering "with TNT equivalent of about 6 kg" is actually equal in this indicator to the weight of the explosives 152 mm howitzer

    Of course, it’s dangerous to export such things — it’s an example of Gaddafi’s CORNETS.
    But for the break-in in combat conditions, I think just right ASADU a dozen pieces can be put.

    Shoot more often - drag less. If the damaging factors are at their height, then it’s not to scoop up in scrap.

    Such a grenade launcher is needed for a long time, the realities of the time are now such as ours, in hot spots and throughout the world, starting with Syria, we hope that it will be worthy of continuing our best weapons, like the RPG-7 and Kalashnikov assault rifle.

    All agreed on the same opinion - you need to arm and train your army, and then export. It is apparently caused by the fact that for some types of weapons there is a clear bias in favor of export.

    It is a pity that our politicians, military and manufacturers forgot Stalin's speech at a reception in honor of the graduates of the military academies of 5 on May 1941. Here are some excerpts that are relevant today.

    * The Red Army is not the same as it was several years ago. What was the Red Army 3-4 of a year ago?
    * What has the Red Army become at present? We rebuilt our army, armed it with modern military equipment.
    * You can have a good commanding staff, but if you do not have modern military equipment, you can lose the war.
    * To manage all this new equipment - a new army, we need commanding personnel who perfectly know modern military art.
    * I would not talk about this, but our military schools and academies lag behind the modern army. Our military schools are still behind the army. They are still learning on the old technique. They told me that at the Artillery Academy they are training on a three-inch cannon. So, fellow gunners? (Turns to the gunners.)
    * The military school lagged behind the army. The Air Force Academy is still teaching on old machines I-14, I-16, I-153, SB. You can’t teach on old technology. Teaching on old technology means releasing lagging people. Programs also contribute to this lag. After all, in order to teach in a new and new way, you need to change the program, but for this you need to work hard. Much easier to learn from the old programs, less worries and hassle. Our military schools must and can restructure their training of command personnel on new technology and use the experience of modern warfare. Our military schools are lagging behind, this lag is natural. It needs to be eliminated.
    * To prepare well for war, not only must you have a modern army, but you must prepare the war politically. What does it mean to politically prepare for war? Politically preparing a war means having a sufficient number of reliable allies from neutral countries.

    My congratulations to the Tula people) The good name is "BUR", very much in the style of our weapons-building))) However, if the developers manage to expand the range of ammunition produced for the "Bur", it will be a very versatile and flexible thing in use))) We are waiting for news-news)

    A thermobaric grenade is fired at armored vehicles either from despair, or at exhibitions on old armored personnel carriers, so that the hatch is beautifully knocked out. It seems to RPG 7 also developed a thermobaric shot?

    Then I found it at http://military-informant.com/index.php/army/2898-1.html in the same topic:

    The Russian Ministry of Defense ordered the manual killers of modern RPG-30 tanks

    RPG-30 Hook

    The Russian Ministry of Defense in November 2013 will begin to adopt the new RPG-30 "Hook" double-barreled hand-held anti-tank grenade launchers, the newspaper Izvestia writes. In total, the Russian military has so far ordered a thousand new grenade launchers totaling 83 million rubles. An agreement on the supply of grenade launchers was signed at the end of 2012. According to the Ministry of Defense, the RPG-30 will provide a reliable defeat of heavy armored vehicles.

    The Hook was developed by the Basalt Research and Production Association from 2007 to 2009 in response to the creation of modern active defense systems such as the Israeli Trophy and Iron Fist or the Russian Arena. State tests of new weapons have already been completed.

    The anti-tank complex includes two grenades: a combat caliber of 105 millimeters and a simulator. The simulator is fired from an additional barrel located above the main one.

    The imitation grenade forces the active defense system of the combat vehicle to work, and the next combat grenade already strikes the equipment itself. Combat grenades are unified with ammunition from RPG-29 "Vampire". The RPG-30 complex is more compact than the Vampire: the length of the first is a little more than a meter, while for the latter this parameter is about two meters. The higher cost of the Hook compared to the standard RPG-22 and RPG-26 is due to the use of grenade simulators.

    As expected, the first grenade launchers "Hook" will go to the district warehouses of the Southern and Central military districts. From there, they will be distributed into brigades.
