Heavy armored personnel carrier "Namer" ("Leopard"). Israel

279
As you know, Israeli military equipment designers have gained considerable experience in the field of creating highly protected military vehicles using as a base tanks: this is the Puma engineering vehicle (based on Centurion), Akhzarit BMP (based on captured T-55s), Nakpodon and Nagmash'ot armored personnel carriers (both also based on the Centurion tank). Now in Israel, a prototype of a heavy infantry fighting vehicle was created on the basis of the Israeli Merkava Mk1 main battle tank, which received the serial name "Namer" (Namer - Tiger). The first acquaintance with this machine occurred on March 7–10, 2005 in Tel Aviv at the Low Intensity Conflict 2005 arms exhibition. The prototype BMP "Namer", which was presented by Israel at the exhibition, according to the local representative of the editorial office of the popular JDW magazine, "is an exhibition model of technology with real components, which has passed all the necessary operational evaluation in a separate 84th brigade of the Israeli defense forces and will be used in the sector Strip after the exhibition. "

According to Western sources, in Israel, on September 2007, XNUMX, a five-year arms procurement plan was approved (earlier, the budget, like all other government spending, was drawn up strictly for one year). As local experts emphasize, this plan has one specificity - after many years of preference given to missile and aviation technology, the authorities today decided to first provide the necessary weapons and military equipment to their own ground forces and their armored base. Israeli experts note that such a turn is justified by the experience that was gained in the 2nd Lebanon war, which showed the Air Force’s inability to independently solve the complex tasks of combating perfectly disguised and fortified enemy positions. With all this, the ground forces suffered significant losses due to the poor protection of armored vehicles. In order to improve the situation, the Ministry of Defense allocated $ 1 billion for the purchase of several hundred new BMP “Namer”.



The prototype BMP "Namer" was made on the basis of the tank "Merkava" Mk1 by removing from it a tower with mounted cannon armament and technical equipment in the stern of the hull to prepare places for transporting 8-equipped infantrymen. In addition, the loading of a standard stretcher for the 1 of the wounded was provided (except for the landing force). Places still 3 crew members are located in the front of the hull. The paratroopers take and leave their seats through a special hydraulic ramp with a hydraulic drive installed, and the crew through the hatches in the roof. Periscopic tracking devices are located around the hatches, and in front of them are turrets for attaching weapons. The prototype presented at the “Low Intensity Conflict 2005” exposition was equipped with a 12,7-mm remote coaxial machine-gun radial rotation unit “Katlanit” manufactured by Rafael and a 7,62-mm manual-controlled machine gun. In the BMP used diesel power unit AVDS power 900 hp previously installed on the tank Merkava Mk1. Mounts for overhead dozer equipment or mine trawl are provided in the bow.

The BMP has a reinforced armored bottom protection (equipped with a mine guard system) and a hull upper hemisphere (multi-layer and posted booking). Frontal reservations are fully repackaged and enhanced, and the stern ramp has also been enhanced. Chassis and sides are locked folding iron screens. In the future, BMP is planned to equip the system of active protection "Trophy".

It is assumed that the serial version of the BMP “Namer” will be equipped with a weapon module with remote control of the state company “Rafael”, including (in different versions) 7,62-mm or 12,7-mm machine gun, 30-mm mechanical gun, 40-mm mechanical grenade launcher. With all this, the installation can be installed both on the roof of the troop compartment itself and on the turrets in the area of ​​the hatches. The design and creation of the first prototype of the BMP "Namer" was carried out by the Merkava tank development department of the Israeli Defense Forces. However, according to the Israeli military, a radical re-equipment of the Merkava Mk1 tank chassis led to significant costs, comparable to the creation of a similar combat vehicle from scratch (estimated 750.000 $). Thus, it was decided to develop a series of BMP "Namer" on the basis of the chassis currently manufactured by the Israeli industry Merkava tanks Mk4.



BMP "Timer", made on the basis of "Merkava" Mk4, is much more different from the prototype. At first, this applies to bevelled side protection panels on fenced shelves (valid with integrated dynamic protection). In addition, the combat vehicle received a full-fledged commander's tower and a new remote-controlled machine gun installation caliber 12,7 mm. For the likelihood of tracking from the troop compartment closer to the stern of the sides were provided protruding at an angle viewing glass blocks. Above them were placed special 6-barrels of smoke grenade launchers. From the tank "Merkava" Mk4 BMP also inherited the engine, box and chassis.

Currently, several samples of BMPs have already been manufactured, and they have entered the test service to the troops. The first cars are equipped with a diesel power unit with an HP 1200 power. Similar engines are used in tanks Merkava 3, but in the future will consider other options. By such options should include an improved propulsion system AVDS-1790. The total number of machines required for IDF is the Namer 600 BMP.



Tactical and technical characteristics of the Namer BMP:
• Length - 7450 mm;
• Crew - 3 persons;
• Combat weight - 60 tons;
• Landing - 9 people;
• Width - 3700 mm;
• Booking - multilayer composite;
• Specific power - 20 hp. / T;
• Power reserve on the highway - 500 km;
• Armament - 40 mm mechanical grenade launcher, 12,7 mm remote coaxial machine gun mount, 30 mm mechanical cannon.

        But the security is an order of magnitude higher than in our armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles, although there is no way to overcome water barriers, but if such vehicles hold an RPG strike, then it costs a lot, the soldier’s life is above all. We could have some of the armored vehicles in the current version — light, part in a heavy version with enhanced protection.

      For a start
      a) try to sit for several hours in a low-profile machine
      b) compare the profiles of tanks, for example, Western and Soviet. So radical a difference?

      Low-profile vehicles have become obsolete with the advent of normal optics and modern anti-tank systems.

        -Well, this is not true, try to get from the gun into a shield of 2 square meters and 2,5 square meters
        == there is always scatter, and the larger the area of ​​the affected object, the less its impact

        - when changing the length / width / height of the tank body(rather the reserved volume) its mass varies in the proportion 1/3/7, i.e. a 10cm change in height will produce the same mass gain as a 70cm change in length.

            And why is the weight of the Merkava "catastrophic"?


            The only obvious drawback of the Merkava-4 is its large weight, which exceeds 60 tons. Experts believe that when operating on clay soil, this machine can be completely helpless. Although the creators developed the design of the tank exclusively for the conditions of their region - stony soils and deserts.


            By the way, about "rain" in Israel ... It all depends on the type of soil. Rain in the Leningrad region (which lasts, as you know, 13 months a year) is one thing, but on the soils of Israel it is another

            "all our best", and someone else's not very
            Israeli Merkava tanks are some of the most original in the world of tank building. This series of combat vehicles is not just an outstanding creation of the military-industrial complex, but the national pride of the country.

              Well, among the admirers of "experts" the reality floats away somewhere far, far away. Israel is stones, muddle, and a solid plain. Isn't it funny yourself?

              None of the Israelis, if you have noticed, says that the Merkava is "indestructible", cannot get stuck in the mud, or does not have certain drawbacks. Only these shortcomings should be judged professionally and with a head, and not quoting nonsense, like a recent "expert" article in four parts, where the author harnessed the jamb, rode on the jamb, and drove the jamb.

        Firstly, it’s difficult, hence the difficulty in transporting by plane, the difficulty in moving along bridges, the complexity of transporting by rail.

                  It was abandoned not only in Israel. In principle, the thing is convenient, but, as they say, there are nuances. for instance

                  In August 2006, in al-Amara, a shot from a Russian RPG-29 damaged the lower part of the Challenger 2, despite triggering a remote sensing device in the driver's cabin, he lost part of his leg, and two more crews were injured. However, the driver was able to reverse 1,5 miles (2,4 km) to the location of the units and the first-aid post. The incident was not made public until May 2007. In response to the allegations, the UK Department of Defense said: "We never claimed the Challenger 2 was impenetrable." Following an analysis of the incident, the DZ was replaced with a Dorchester block (Dorchester multilayer armor) throughout the lower hull as part of the Streetfighter update.

                      To listen to you, the brits do not understand the essence of the matter at all - and they have the wrong system, and they cannot determine the RPG, and the booking with holes, and the most important and incomprehensible is "it": "vet it in fact there was ".

                      Nevertheless, it is Challanger-2 that is the very tank that did not suffer losses from enemy fire for the entire time it was used in wars in the bay. It says something about something. And if you remember that one of them withstood 14 hits from an RPG, was repaired and returned to service after six hours, then you probably have to agree that there’s nothing at all, but the shavers understand the tank armor.

                      Waging an intense battle in the narrow streets of the city, hiding from return fire, tank crews pressed cars to buildings or drove inside houses, demolishing bulwarks and crushing KDZ blocks. There was practically no time for repairs in a combat situation. The absence of new blocks made it impossible and pointless to install explosive plates brought from the rear.

And for urban battles, it makes no sense to create cars, since in cities it is impossible to fight in principle. If the city (population) resists, take artillery and destroy it until it surrenders. Why enter the city? it will only increase losses.

            You already have some terrible landmines, mounted strictly at an angle of 15 degrees.

            How do you even imagine the propagation of a shock wave? It goes in all directions absolutely evenly if it does not encounter obstacles. And if she meets, then she still tries to continue moving and flows around obstacles. Those. if we assume the most unsuccessful blast for Merkava - 10cm inward from the truck, then the wave, yes, will certainly put pressure on the bottom. However, it will continue to move in all directions, including upwards, where the bottom is located at an angle, and not directly, as in the T-72/80/90. What is worse - I did not understand. Those. in extreme cases, this is the same. If the mine is not a mathematical point, it is undermined under the bottom, then everything is different, and the V-shape helps to disperse the wave.

            And about centimeters, you know, according to "The Physics of Explosion" (Baum F.A.) Chapter 11 paragraph 56:

            Indeed, it follows from the theory that in the case of spherical symmetry, the pressure in the explosion products decreases inversely with R ^ 9, where R is the distance from the source-explosion.


            Those. the count is not centimeters, but centimeters in the ninth degrees. We take into account.

                You see, it describes the law of pressure drop depending on the distance, and the greater this distance, the lower, all other things being equal. And this very fall occurs according to the "x in the ninth" law. Those. in Russian speaking - very, very quickly.

                Do not argue with math, empty.

                But, if you don't like this kind of math, I have a more different one:

                Statistics of irreversible losses of armored personnel carriers during a high-explosive mine blast equivalent to an anti-tank mine (5.5-6.5 kg TNT): 17% of tanks, 59% of armored personnel carriers, 64% of infantry fighting vehicles, 100% of BMD (according to the actions of the USSR in Afghanistan).

                Compare:
                Statistics on tanks "Second Lebanese":
                Hezbollah used RPG-29 "Vampire", ATGM type "Cornet", "Metis", "Fagot", "Konkurs" and "Tau" during the war.
                In Lebanon, 350-400 tanks operated. 52 Merkava tanks were damaged - 50 ATGMs and 2 HEs.

                Percentage to calculate, or is it clear that in practice with a mine protection T-72/80/90 is still sadder than even in theory?

                And that we have not yet touched upon the issue of the location of the combat station.

                    Exactly. I’m reasonable with a higher mathematical education, although in this case it doesn’t matter - school course, 5th grade.

                    We consider F based on the distance from the point of detonation to the point of application of force R = 1. Suppose the value is X.
                    We consider the same for R = 1.1
                    Knowing that the quantity decreases according to the 9th power of R, we get X / 2.36
                    That is, the pressure will be 2.36 times lower!

                    Where am I wrong? Or do you prove to me now that with increasing distance and pressure increases? A billion times? good

                        No, there is no mistake. You are trying to reduce everything to units of measurement (meters, centimeters, fractions of a meter, etc.) - and this is wrong.

                        If it is known that the ratio of one quantity to itself at different points varies according to a certain law (in this case, it is inversely proportional to the 9th power of the radius), then it is not necessary to calculate the value at each point - it is enough to calculate at one, and then substitute in the formula of decrease.

                        Since both the significant ones and the radius are not substituted in absolute values, but only in fractions (times) of themselves, the dimension in the numerator and denominator is the same, and can be reduced for ease of calculation.

                        Those. if it is known that with increasing radius R the value of a certain quantity X decreases according to the law R ^ 9, then it is easy to calculate the desired value.

                        Let the radius R1 refer to the radius R2, as 1 refers to 1.1, then the value of the unknown quantity X calculated at the point R1 will refer to the unknown value X2 at the point R2, as X / R to X / [R * (1.1 ^ 9) ] or X / (R * 2.36). Dividing one value into another, we obtain the ratio of quantities in the form of a dimensionless number = 2.36

                        This rule is called proportion. And the ratio when the coefficient R is placed in the denominator is back-proportional.

          In general, on Merkava (on the bottom) there is an opportunity to suspend additional protection, the so-called “gahon”, this is another 10 tons of armor, then no landmine will take it. But this reduces maneuverability.
          Mine protection. Undoubtedly, the Merkava 4 design itself is more resistant to undermining: firstly, it has a pronounced V-shaped bottom, and secondly, the tank design itself is optimized for "counterguerrilla" actions. The T-90 mine protection is worse not only because of the flat bottom, but also because of the characteristic feature of the third-generation Soviet tanks with AZ in the BO (in the case of T-72/90 - directly on the bottom in the form of a "carousel").

                Well, there were (and by the way remained) options. Option one is to finish off the T-90 (new engine, new sighting system, new control system, communications, etc.) Or make a completely new tank, or rather a platform.

            The table is crafty, I wonder how the "Merkava" can hit a tank at 6000m. "Tornado" is better to compare with MLRS, they are practically classmates. PzH2000 at 60 km shoots shells with a gas generator and with a very large spread, we must not forget our "msta-s" is 12 years older, and there are also controlled shells.

            This is all well and good, but in the question of who will be the winner, the most important factor is PREPARATION of the crew ... And don't be so proud, the T90 is not such an "easy nut to crack", in capable hands it can spoil a lot of "blood" to any enemy ..

At the training ground, under ideal conditions of visibility, without return fire, from a place at the previously designated motionless targets, the best crews of districts - smear, smear and smear again. With three shots without a miss, only 1 (in words) in four was shot out, which caused a storm of delight among the public. And one never hit the target at all.

          And then what about ordinary tankers who are not the best-of-the-best? So let's not talk about getting into a weak spot of the tank in general and Merkava in particular with 4 km in motion and all that. Okay?

                      Again, I repeat - ceteris paribus, in particular, the aiming system in particular and the OMS as a whole - this is what it depends on whether the tank will hit the enemy or not. And if it does, then from what distance and from what shot. This is - obviously, I think no one will argue. A sighting system and SLA in Britons - if not the best, then some of them. This is what primarily explains accuracy. Well, and training, of course.

                      On most domestic tanks, the MSA, to put it mildly, does not reach the world level, and the T-90MS exists in single copies. As for training, I have already spoken about the "best of the best" performance.

                    Well, Israel (before) fought the same thing with a specific adversary, what are Arabs, their qualifications, especially the Middle East spill - we all know (I certainly do), considering them as serious opponents of the Israeli armed forces is ridiculous, even despite the count -to study in the USSR and military specialists from the USSR.
                    Had the Israeli Armed Forces collided (futuristically) with the Vietnamese Air Force (armed with USSR technology) at the time, I’d be sad the result would be sad


                    Although no one says that the tank (Merkava) is bad. It is peculiar, regional, I would say.

                        I repeat - to judge the maneuverability of the machine based on one indicator, and to give interest to this maneuverability is nonsense. Maneuverability depends on several indicators: overall dimensions, gauge, marginal turning angles. The minimum turning radius is the main characteristic of maneuverability.

                        You didn’t remember either the transmission, the control system, or a bunch of other things. In with manic perseverance you dive in one second the advantages of temporary acceleration to 32 km. Yes, I think it’s nonsense.

            I repeat, because in the topic about 72 wrote. You all take into account the specific pressure on the ground. But it is considered in statics, and not with a maneuvering tank. With active movement on rough terrain, the center of gravity mixes and pressure rises much.

            I’m not a tanker, but on construction in Russia I saw earthmoving machinery drowning. And the paradox is that the heavier one sinks more often, despite the same indicators of pressure reduction with a lower mass. In general, there is rich experience of the Second World War. Where tigers were not used everywhere.

          What exactly does the Soviet training manual say about protracted conflicts against partisans in urban and urban areas and in rugged terrain?

          You see, in Soviet times they did not prepare for such wars as in Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel or the Caucasus, they did not work out tactics, they did not adapt weapons and equipment. This is the first.

          The second, wheeled vehicle (BTR) is important because it is able to drive 6 out of 8 wheels, and with reservations, 5 out of 152. Of course, there is a completely different specificity of application and booking, but XNUMXmm landmines are not laid on every corner. And to immobilize the car, it is not necessary to disrupt the rollers, it is enough to disrupt the truck.

                Well, you are popping everywhere your articles about shot down instantly.
                There was no 20 vs 16 combat. On that day, there were several fights, separated in time and space - and every time MiGs fought many times superior enemy forces - when one Soviet four got into battle, the other four MiGs were already leaving the battlefield with a critical balance of fuel. The Israelis have calculated everything and were able to achieve a concentration of forces in the right place and the right moment.

                The first was shot down by Captain Yurchenko - his MiG exploded in the air from a Sidewinder rocket. A few minutes later, Captains Yakovlev and Syrkin had to eject - alas, when they landed, Captain Yakovlev fell into a crevice and crashed to death (there is a version that the canopy of his parachute was burned by a jet fighter flying by).

                It is still not known exactly how Captain Zhuravlev died - according to eyewitness recollections, he fought alone against four enemy aircraft, until he was hit by a crazy Mirage gun cannon. There is an opinion that two Israeli pilots, Ift Spector and Abraham Salmon, who barely reached the territory of Israel in a damaged car, almost fell victim to it.

                The explosion of "Mirage"

                Israel’s ace Asher Snir’s Mirage was also damaged - the P-13 rocket fired into the plane damaged the aircraft, but the warhead of the small P-13 was too small to stop the Mirage’s flight - Asher Snir left the battlefield and urgently sat at the airbase Refadim (this is what his combat colleague Amos Amir writes about in his book Fire in the Sky).

                Yurchenko - shot down, died; Yakovlev - shot down, died; Syrkin - shot down, he survived; Zhuravlev - shot down, died.
                But what about the fifth shot down Russian aircraft? And he was gone! About the downed aircraft and its pilot is not known.

                According to rumors, the Israelis managed to shoot down Captain Kamenev’s plane, but there is no evidence of this. In addition, Captain Kamenev himself subsequently continued to serve in the ranks of the USSR Air Force. Rumors, rumors ... sometimes they say that one of the MiGs made an emergency landing on one of the Egyptian airfields. No one knows what really happened.

                At the same time, there are witness testimonies, according to which, after the battle, the Israeli search and rescue helicopters were circling over the battlefield - did the “unbreakable” Hel Haavir suffer any losses? It is not excluded. The operation involved a lot of "Mirage" from 101, 117 and 119 squadrons, as well as multipurpose fighter "Phantom" from the 69 squadron of the Israeli Air Force. There is a high probability that the loss of one (or several) machines was carefully hidden, and the results of the battle were falsified.

                Without resorting to questionable conspiracy, the following reliable facts can be established:
                As a result of the 30.07.1970 battle, the 4 MiG-21 was shot down, and three Soviet pilots were killed.
                The credible loss of the Israeli Air Force was shot down by Asher Snir’s Mirage, which landed at Refadim airbase.

                  The 135th Fighter Aviation Regiment (106 IABR of the UAR Air Force) stationed at Kom-Aushim and Beni-Suef air bases and was set up to cover Cairo from the southeast direction, and industrial facilities in central Egypt and the Aswan waterworks from the northeast, between Sokhnenskaya and Zaafaran valleys. The depth of hostilities was limited to the Gulf of Suez of the Red Sea.

                  The 35 Separate Fighter Aviation Squadron (108 UAR Air Force) located at the Janaklis airbase covered the Navy on the Mediterranean coast and industrial facilities in northern Egypt from Port Said to Mersa Matruh and south to Cairo. The aircraft carried identification marks and tactical numbers adopted by the Egyptian Air Force. Soviet pilots were forbidden to cross the Suez Canal, which was the boundary of the separation of the warring parties.

                  The patrolling of Soviet pilots forced Israeli aircraft to limit their raids to the front-line zone. The first meeting of Soviet and Israeli pilots ended peacefully - the opponents dispersed, not daring to join the battle. It happened April 13 1970 year. Similarly, the meeting of 18 and 29 of April ended. By June 1970, Soviet pilots already had more than 100 sorties, but did not conduct air battles. Although by this time the Israeli aviation had a completely different experience and made more than 10 thousand sorties: for attacking - 86,8%, for air reconnaissance - 11,5%, for conducting air battles - 1,7%, the Israeli army command also preferred to avoid direct confrontation. But in the summer of 1970, the fighting in the canal zone intensified. The involvement of Soviet specialists in the conflict became inevitable. The first case of combat contact was recorded on June 25 1970 of the year. The MiG-21 pair (pilots Krapivin and Salnik), using low altitude, secretly approached the Skyhawk group, marching to Ismailia, and hit one of them with the R-3С rocket, but the damaged attack aircraft managed to escape to its air base. Another source claims that in this battle an Israeli attack aircraft was shot down and the pilot died.
                  On 27 of July 1970 of the year, together with the Egyptians, an attempt was made to ambush the Israeli Mirages. According to the plan, the link of the Egyptian MiG-17 attacked the Israeli stronghold on the eastern bank of the canal, with the aim of provoking enemy fighters to pursue. Then they should be lured into their territory, where three links of the Soviet MiG-21 would be introduced into the battle. MiG-17 hit 12: 00, hitting a target and injuring four Israeli soldiers, but Israeli fighters did not even rise to repel this raid.
                  The Egyptians repeated the attack in 16: 45, again hitting the target and injuring three more soldiers. The task was practically completed: the four MiG-17 captain Maher Kasima was attacked by Mirage fighters and was able to lure them into their territory, but the delay in taking off Soviet fighters allowed the Israelis to shoot down two Egyptian aircraft and calmly leave. One link of the Soviet MiG-21 managed to enter the battlefield and watched what was happening, requesting permission to attack, but the command forbade it to get involved in the battle until the other two links rose. Both Egyptian pilots successfully ejected

                      On June 10, on June 1967, the USSR broke off diplomatic relations with Israel and, through a direct line of communication with Washington, informed the world public that if Israel did not stop the hostilities, the Soviet Union would not stop before taking military measures. On the same day, Israeli troops ceased fire.

                      At the same time, Israel achieved all the necessary goals at that time, right?

                        The IDF neatly cut through the entire Syrian air defense system. At the same time, having spent not a frail number of drones used as meat. On the ground, Israeli tanks with at least three times the numerical advantage have achieved only a nail in the ass. With grief in half, a thousand Israeli tanks managed to encircle the 1st Syrian Division, consisting of 250 tanks. The Syrians, who had already spent all the shells and knocked out one and a half hundred Israeli tanks, had to abandon 200 of their tanks, half of which were serviceable. Israel, which decided that it had already won the war, did not even suspect that it was going to it from Damascus. Elite units, armed with new T-72s, rushed from the flank to the location of the "victorious" Israelis. "Pattons" were stretched on the very fucking mind and spread their legs in front of the araps. Having successfully frolicked, the T-72 regiment began to return back to Damascus, and the offended Jews came up with a cunning plan of how to catch these "seventy-two". In pursuit of them (the wise Israeli leadership decided that the Syrians were "retreating"), several more Patton battalions were thrown. It seems that everything was going smoothly, as, suddenly, on the road near the village of Sultan-Yakub, T-55 tanks of the 58th brigade began to perdol them from all sides. The unfair battle in which the Israeli Pattons had to flee, the soldiers will more than once reckon with their wise government. Now it was the turn of the Araps to launch a counterstrike, when suddenly the American delegates to the UN were hammered in the ass and they began to ask for a ceasefire. The truce was scheduled for 12:00 on June 11. Both sides rushed to the attack. Heaps of helicopters flew from both sides, giving in to the shushpanzers fighting on the ground. A well-aimed Syrian tanker on a T-62 even managed to shoot down one of these helicopters with cannon fire. The rest of the Syrian troops located along the border met their truce there, without launching a counterattack and believing the UN that the Jews would stop their attacks. For the Israelis, UN assistance came in handy. Having got rid of the Syrian threat, the Israelis set to work on the PLO, whose brave fighters for some reason stubbornly refused to surrender. The siege of Beirut, where the Palestinian headquarters was, began, with benchmark street fighting, ambushes and snipers. Sawing off Palestinian soldiers, the Israelis were reinsured and demolished entire skyscrapers if a single sniper sat down there. As a result of the epic battles, the capital of Lebanon was turned into a kind of Berlin in 1945 after the raids of allied bombers. In the picturesque ruins of the densely built-up city, about ten thousand corpses of unlucky civilian Lebanese remain. Oddly enough, the Americans intervened in the war and allowed the surviving militants to board ships and sail to Tunisia from a full drink of the PLO. Well, that the gallant Jewish soldiers, and who the instructors were and the planners of these operations, I hope you can guess.

                        Operation Peace of Galilee is also notable for the fact that the battle between the tanks of the latest generation Merkava and T-72 took place for the first time. More precisely, it did not quite take place. More precisely, it did not take place at all. It was like this - an Israeli tank brigade drove itself along the Lebanese hills, suddenly dust clouds were on the horizon! The Jews took a closer look, and see that these are the latest Soviet T-72! Brave Jewish tankers quickly pointed their guns, took aim and opened fire! A few hours later, a hundred Arab 72-k chad on the hills, everyone is happy, celebrating victory, when all of a sudden ... A breeze blew and a mirage scattered around not a single Syrian tank, not just wrecked! Jewish tankers vowed to fill the face of that moron who had poured powder with hallucinogen into them in tea and sadly trudged to the headquarters. True, before the tops figured out what was happening, one Jewish general managed to trumpet the whole world about another brilliant victory, and the world, who believed it. But the real story is about how a battalion of Syrian T-72 suddenly met with Merkav’s unit during a night march and accidentally sawed it out. Although, what is there to hide, the war cost the Araps the 12 T-72, the Jews the 34 Merkava.

                        Jews would not be themselves if, after the war, they did not leave part of the Lebanese lands for temporary use - just in case. And to be honest - southern Lebanon was occupied for a reason: in order for cunning Palestinians and sympathizers to fire less at the lands of sovereign Israel and leak less to the south. But the PLO was replaced in Lebanon by a new club for Arab youth - Hezbollah, which brought Jews a lot of trouble with elements of light and pyrotechnics. Thanks in part to Hezbollah, Israel repeated its fascinating tank and infantry trip to Lebanon in 2006. It turned out not so epic and bloody as in 82, but the Arabs were once again reminded that the Jews had not forgotten how to fight. Although the Arabs were quick-witted and hung a few lyuli in the form of fifty destroyed merkas (including fashionable mk4) and 14 armored personnel carriers. The epiciness of the second Lebanon war is clearly expressed in numbers.

                        The Israelis lost more than 60 tanks, including the Merkava. The most distinguished helicopters and the 3rd Panzer Division. The Syrians lost more than 250 tanks, mainly from the 1st Panzer Division, which was surrounded on June 9. Large losses were sustained during an air strike inflicted by the Israelis during the declared ceasefire on June 11.

                        Almost all tactical reconnaissance aircraft, AWACS, electronic reconnaissance aircraft and air command posts were lifted into the air. At 13:00, clouds of dipole reflectors (passive interference from the radar) were thrown out by planes on the front up to 200 km. At 13.30, the government received the final permission to conduct the operation. At 13.50, reconnaissance by the Fed air defense group promptly uncovered the rise of Israeli aviation from airfields and its concentration in the air above land and above the sea from Tsur to Tripoli. At 13:50 and 14:00, the Israelis completely suppressed the communication and control channels of the Syrian air defense system with active interference from Boeing 707 aircraft and ground stations (especially from the station on Hermon).

                        At 14:02 p.m. - 14:10 p.m., each position and command post was hit by 2-3 ground-to-ground missiles Zeev and Ivry (Fig. 9). At 14: 20-14: 22, more than 100 strike aircraft hit Shriik and Standard anti-radar missiles, as well as Wallai-2 guided bombs at air defense control and guidance points, 2-6 aircraft per point, after another 20 minutes, up to 80 aircraft hit ball bombs at anti-aircraft missile positions (Fig. 10). The attack lasted until 14.35.
                        Syrian fighters were called into the attack area, as a result of their appearance, part of the Israeli aircraft returned to the base without completing the mission.
                        At 14:40, the Rayak radar station was disabled. Syria has lost its aviation control system in the Bekaa Valley. After the first strike, reconnaissance flights were conducted to determine the damage caused by air defense.
                        After ascertaining that many batteries were not operational, at 15:45 p.m., the Israelis launched a second strike on missile launchers and ground forces stationed in the area. This attack lasted 30 minutes, using high-explosive and cluster bombs.

                        After the partitions of the Commonwealth, the Russian Empire included lands on which a large number of Jews lived. By the end of the 19th century, the largest Jewish community in the world existed in the Russian Empire (in 1880, 67% of the entire Jewish people [1] lived here). However, as a result of the mass pogroms from 1881 to 1906 years, and then during the Civil War, more than 2 million Jews left the territory of the Russian Empire, who mainly emigrated to the United States. Therefore, it is not surprising that the United States does not catch only lazy on lies.

            On the night of 9 on 10 on June, the Syrians launched a powerful artillery counterattack on the enemy’s frontline positions, and at dawn the Syrian fire roll hit the second echelon of the Israelis. On June 10 their (the Israelis - WL) offensive, in practice, ran out of steam on the entire front. During these battles, Syrian ground forces destroyed more than 160 Israeli tanks.

            As a rule, tank battles began at ranges 1,500-2,000 m and ended at the line of approach to 1,000 m. According to the chief military adviser to the Syrian Ministry of Defense, General G.P. Yashkin, who personally took part in the leadership of the fighting in Lebanon, T-tanks 72 showed their complete superiority over the enemy’s armored vehicles. Affected by greater mobility, better security and high firepower of these machines. So, after the battle, in the frontal sheets of some “seventy-two” they counted up to 10 dents from the “enemy blanks” of the enemy, nevertheless, the tanks retained combat effectiveness and did not leave the battle. At the same time, X-NUMX-mm T-125 shells surely hit enemy vehicles in the forehead at ranges up to 72 meters. So, according to one of the eyewitnesses - a Soviet officer who is in combat formation of the Syrian troops - after a D-1,500TM cannon shell hit from a distance of approximately 81 m in the Merkava tank, the tower of the latter was torn off the shoulder.

            At the same time, fighting on the whole front resumed: the Israelis launched a “psychic” attack, trying to seize the most important strategic communication - the Beirut-Damascus highway. However, this attack was repelled with heavy losses on the Israeli side. Syrian T-72 from the 3-th Panzer Division again distinguished themselves. Its commander, Brigadier General F. Shafik, on his own initiative, advanced his connection from the second echelon and launched a powerful counterattack in the direction of the city of Adan. As a result, the 210-I tank division of the enemy was driven back from the highway at 18-20 km and actually defeated. Neighboring divisions were in a difficult situation. The Israeli front was threatened with collapse, but on 11 in June at 12 hours the fighting was stopped: the American emissaries Schulz and Habib, who arrived in Damascus, convinced the Syrian leadership to stop the counter-attack, guaranteeing that Israel would withdraw troops from Lebanon in 10 days and enter negotiations with Syria.

                  Nevertheless, if Russian, Western and Israeli sources do not contradict each other at some point, then precisely for this reason - all sources confirm the use of T-72 in the battles of the Lebanon war. These T-72s could only belong to the 3th brtd (consisting of the 47th and 81th brigades and 21th brigade), which replaced the remnants of the 1th brtd on the outskirts of Beirut-Damascus on the night of the 10th to 11 -June June (while the 47-I tank battalion suffered serious losses - 30 tanks from its composition were destroyed as a result of the bombing from the air on the 10-June). Therefore, we can say with absolute certainty: T-72 were used by the Syrians in battles only starting from the 11 of June 1982 of the year.

It’s not a problem for Jews to grind a couple of quarters with “militants”. Another story is that their operations are coordinated and provided with tactical intelligence. And the suppression of nodes of resistance occurs from afar, and not always with high-precision weapons.

(only smaller losses and a better result) The point is to rivet the submarines and clubs, if the main losses are infantry for which it has not yet been created (and has not been ported into the army) adequate (to threats) Protection - like heavy infantry fighting vehicles, communications. night vision. battle control. UAVs, and tactical support helicopters (I'm not talking about combat control methods in densely built-up areas), here we come to GLONASS navigation aids, electronic maps (all of this has already been written enough). First of all, it is necessary to minimize losses among the personnel of the Republic of Armenia (of course, nuclear submarines and aircraft carriers can be built in parallel), but the main threat and the main losses of the Republic of Armenia over the past 20 years are local conflicts in the built-up area (as is fair to say throughout the world).

In 1941-1945 we fought with the strongest army in the world, which had huge combat experience. You have never had such an enemy close. All your wars are frankly small-town, on the same, very limited theater of operations, with the same, in fact, the enemy (Arabs). Secondly, what do you, in principle, call “major wars”? The Arab-Israeli war of 1956 lasted - 9 days, the Arab-Israeli war of 1967 - 6 days, the Arab-Israeli war of 1967 - 6 days, during the Arab-Israeli war of 1982, battles with the Syrian regular army continued - 5 days. In 2006, you fought with insurgents for 25 days (ground operation). Those. the last time you fought with the regular army 31 years ago. And Russia 5 years ago (August 2008).

The active phase of the first Chechen war lasted 612 days, Israel in 2006, conducted military operations for only 33 days (in including only 25 days of land operation). 2. The area of ​​the theater of war (Chechnya) 15647 km sq. The positions of Hezbollah were located on a stretch of about 25 by 25 km (from the Israeli-Lebanese border to the Litani River). 3. The main hostilities against the Chechen separatists at the initial stage were carried out in large settlements. Grozny Square - 324,16 km2,5 (For example, it is 4,5 times more than Jerusalem, and 4,5 times more than Tel Aviv). Israel did not storm such large settlements at all. In the final phase of the first Chechen war, hostilities were fought in the mountains (altitudes up to 4 km). The IDF, on the other hand, waged military operations virtually on relatively flat terrain. 18. With the exception of aviation, the weapons of the Chechen separatists were practically the same as those of the Russian army. At the initial stage, the Chechens had 122 BM Grad MLRS, 152 and 41 mm howitzer artillery, XNUMX tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers, MANPADS and ZSU. Hezbollah did not have full-time heavy weapons. Etc. Well, still do not see the "differences"?

But Russian cars are nimble, they are called figs, they jump with a parachute, automatic cannons jump are expensive compared to the tank, and most importantly there are Heroes inside (I can give you a bunch of examples starting with the history of Kievan Rus when we defeated enemies superior in power several times) and if we need there were a hundred tanks, turn them off, even though they made from platinum, we need thousands, and so I think the minds sit and consider the price-effectiveness ratio (well, I doubt the truth about the personnel).

Your fellow countryman atalef himself wrote that the war in Chechnya is "no different" from the operation in Lebanon. It was them that I compared. Both there and there, regular armed forces fought against insurgents. The type of war (counter-insurgency) is exactly the same. But atalef's claims that these “conflicts are no different” are a lie. They differ and are very, very significant. And the timing of the war, and the theater of war, and the number of insurgents, and their combat training, and having weapons on the opposite side, and the level of external support (in the broadest sense of the word), etc. etc. In such matters it is necessary to understand in detail, and not put everything in a heap.

                  It is necessary to compare the comparable. WWII in general in terms of scale is nothing to compare with. Nevertheless, this does not prevent the Israelis from placing the Arab-Israeli, purely regional conflicts on a par with the World War II. Why on earth? In the recent history of the USSR / Russia, similar conflicts simply did not exist in the Arab-Israeli wars. We, unlike you, are not constantly attacked. And then what do you propose to compare with? Get another ear pull. Any armed conflict should be considered objectively, including take into account the forces and means of the opposing side. Otherwise, it will be empty verbiage. Actually, the discussion of “Namer” by the Israelis demonstrates this. It is highly likely that the Namer is by far the most secure APC in the world. In order to drive Hamas in Gaza, this is what we need. All in full chocolate. And if the IDF is opposed by the regular army, and not by the insurgents, will everything be fine as well? Do you think the "Namer" can withstand the hit of more or less modern ammunition? Grenade and rockets with KBB - PG-30, PG-28, PG-32, 9M119M1, 9M120-1, 9M123-2, 9M127, 9M131M1, 9M133M2? Withstand a 3BM60 type BPS? Will withstand the hit of antifreeze ammunition: cumulative - PTAB-1M / U, KOBE 3B30, 3B34, ammunition with shell-forming warheads - 9N268, 9N282-2, SPBE-K? Explosions of high-explosive landmines TM-62D (in equipment with explosives MS or TGA) of cumulative high-explosive mines TM-89 and PTM-4, anti-aircraft mines with shell-forming warheads ТМ-83? The regular army is for you, not insurgents. Even land mines of military engineer units set up differently - 2 full-time SZ-6s in TG-50 equipment, and goodbye to "Namer" ...

            Combat aircraft: 300
            Tanks: 800

            Continue or clear? Compare with the forces of Dudaev in the first Chechen one.

            The fact that the army of the Russian Federation in 1990 fumbled with Dudayev so much, made such monstrous miscalculations and mistakes on the verge of treason, does not honor either the war itself or the strategists. "To fight not by numbers, but by skill" - who said, do not remember?

              I would prefer that in 1941 the Red Army acted as decisively, confidently and effectively as the Tsakhal in the conflicts you mentioned

              A very naive statement. Your army is acting as the enemy allows you. In 1941, the Wehrmacht was the strongest army in the world, with successful combat experience (in less than 2 years, almost all of Europe was conquered). Not a single Arab-Israeli war at the IDF equal in power to the Wehrmacht arr. 1941 the enemy, and was not close. I repeat to you - do not compare the incomparable.
              Quote: lucidlook
              if, with the same balance of power between the parties, as it was in the Arab-Israeli wars, success in the Second World War would have been achieved in an equally short period of time, and not in 4 years.

              Demagogy. Why did the Americans during the WWII fought with the Japanese for 4 years? There's also a “aspect ratio” that is quite comparable with your example (if not yet the best). And in Afghanistan, why have Americans been fighting the second decade, and they have no more successes than horseradish than the SA in the 80s? And this despite the fact that the Americans with NATO and other camarilla are in much better conditions in Afghanistan than the OKW was in 1979-1989.
              You always throw out the strength of the opposing opponent from the discussion. If the IDF had an enemy equal in strength to the German Armed Forces of 1941, it is still unknown how long they would have fought and whether Israel could win this war at all, or would quickly be blown away, like France and Great Britain in June 1940 (by the way , you can look at the “aspect ratio” in that campaign).

              And why did you begin to compare the first Chechen one with the fighting of the Israelis with the regular Arab armies? If you suddenly did not notice, then atalef wrote the following: "Chechnya, Ossetia - well, it is no different from the IDF operations in Gaza, Jenin or Lebanon." And I objectively compared one of the examples he named with the first Chechen campaign. Talk about conflicts with insurgents !!! You are again trying to start comparing the incomparable.

Meanwhile, in the Iran-Iraq war, on both sides, 5500 tanks were involved and it lasted from September 1980 to August 1988, i.e. - 8 years. So, major tank battles, after WWII, were not only yours.

                        A deuce to you in history - dear. The largest tank battles (after the Second World War) took place in the Sinai and the Golan.
                        The six-day war of 1967 was a true triumph of the Israeli armored forces. For the first time, Israeli tank formations operated simultaneously on three fronts. They were opposed by many times superior forces of the five Arab states, but even this did not save the Arabs from total defeat. On the southern front, a strike was inflicted by the forces of the three tank divisions of Generals Tal, Sharon and Ioffe. In the offensive operation, called the “March through the Sinai,” Israeli tank units, interacting with aviation, motorized infantry and paratroopers, made a lightning-fast breakthrough of the enemy’s defenses and moved through the desert, destroying the surrounded groups of Arabs. On the northern front, along the impassable mountain trails, the 36th Panzer Division of General Peled attacked, which, after three days of fierce fighting, reached the outskirts of Damascus. On the eastern front, Israeli forces knocked out Jordanian units from Jerusalem and liberated ancient Jewish shrines from foreign invaders. During the fighting, more than 1200 enemy tanks were destroyed, thousands of armored vehicles, mainly Soviet-made ones, were captured. The captured Soviet T-54/55 tanks underwent major modernization at Israeli tank factories and entered service with the tank forces under the name "Tiran-4/5".

                        Golan
                        The most difficult test for Israel was the Doomsday War, which began on October 6, 1973, on the day of one of the most important Jewish holidays, when most of the troops were on vacation. Israel was suddenly attacked on all fronts by many times superior forces of aggressors. On the open spaces from the Sinai to the Golan Heights, one of the largest tank battles in world military history unfolded - up to six thousand tanks took part in it from both sides.
                        A particularly dangerous situation prevailed in the Golan Heights - there, only 200 tanks of the 7th and 188th tank brigades were opposed on a stretch of 40 kilometers by almost 1400 Syrian tanks

Secondly, and this is the main thing - COL for you for such a “history”. And this is why - in addition to cheap show-offs in this article, which you call “history” for some reason, there is no main thing - supporting links to sources. Meanwhile, even in Israeli sources http://guide-israel.ru/history/252-october-war-1973/, it is indicated that the total number of tanks (and combat-ready and sky-ready) in the armies of Egypt, Syria and Israel was only 5250 units Again, solely according to Israeli data, the largest battle in the Golan was the episode when 1200 tanks participated on the Syrian side (by the way, according to Syrian sources, about 750). Of course, that battle, October 6, 1973 can be considered the largest, but whether it was the largest after WWII, this is still a BIG question.

            Even so?
            The Gaza Strip is like one big city, it is practically impossible to enter Gaza itself, for example, by capturing Han Younes on the one hand, Rafiah on the other. On the example of the storming of the terrible. There were 5 to 12000 militants, in the Grozny region there were 12 armed forces troops, about 000 were inside the city itself.

            Operation Protective Wall, 20000 soldiers, against 10 militants (Not in Gaza). During my service life, we participated 000 times in operations of the "Days of Response" scale, when 7-3000 soldiers entered Gaza ...
            Israel has carried out operations on the scale of the storming of Grozny more than once, but here’s the resistance in Gaza, one of the most densely populated places on the planet, where every third house was mined, with underground passages that were built for years, suppressed in a week, and about the same in territory and the number of militants, Grozny, was taken under control only after 2.5 months. So you don’t have to go too far. This is one thing, local conflicts are another.

              We will deal with the figures given. We accept numbers from 5000 to 12000 militants in Grozny. That's just in addition to Grozny, the militants were in other settlements. According to various estimates, their total number was from 25000 to 45000. Accordingly, the Russian Armed Forces conducted military operations throughout Chechnya (and partially in Ingushetia). Initially, according to official figures, 24000 people entered Chechnya. Half of the forces were deployed in Grozny (early January 2005). But by February 1, the number of UGA increased to 70,5 thousand.

              As for the timing of the taking of cities. Tell me, what was the armament for Hamas in 2008? What did they have besides the Qassam-1/2/3, Al-Quds-101 rockets (designed for firing on squares) and light small arms made on their knees? Were there tanks? Native BMRS MLRS were? Howitzer artillery was? Were there regular anti-tank and anti-personnel mines? And what was the anti-tank weapons? For example, Chechen fighters only from 24 warehouses in Chechnya took 51 Fagot ATGMs and 740 Metis ATGMs and 113 ATGMs for them, 7 RPG-7V and an unknown number of shots to them, including PG-7VL and PG-XNUMXVR.
              You have absolutely nothing to boast about. You had an opponent of equal strength to the Chechens in Grozny in 1995, and you weren’t close. When the Arabs appear more or less adequate weapons, your success is completely dull. I can remind you: when in 2006 the valiant IDF could not take the tiny Bent Jabil for 20 days.

                    And in 2002 the population was 210, in the mid-000s there was no census, but it is logical that the figure was approximately in the middle, in the region of 90 - 280. After the 000th, 300 years of the dashing 000s passed before the storming of Grozny, but according to your strange logic, the population has not changed.

                    The only difference is that according to the link I gave, 20000 militants were concentrated throughout the Gaza Strip, and not only in Gaza, and in addition they were in different groups, unknown or not having a single command.

                    It feels like I'm talking to a schoolboy. The points.
                    1. In the Gaza Strip, one city passes into another, and although they are called differently, most of the sector can be conditionally divided as two large cities.
                    2. You can’t enter Gaza without first clearing the cities around it, such as Jabaliya, Beit Hanoun, Beit Laiya and cut off from Dir al Baleh. They enter Gaza from different directions, but there is such a density that it looks like an assault on two cities, one in the north of the other in the south, each with a population of more than 700. On the territory of Grozny lives 000 times more. The photo was taken 7 years ago, during which time everything grew one and a half times. On Google it is clear that the separation between the cities is almost washed away ...

                      1. The 1989 census is closest to the beginning of the First Chechen (1994). There were no prerequisites for reducing Grozny before the outbreak of hostilities. Moreover, by 1994, the population of Grozny could have grown. In 1990 and 1992, I was there, and I saw both new buildings and the construction of new residential buildings. 2. Naturally, the population decreased after the storm. The city was seriously destroyed. However, initially, in terms of population, the cities of Grozny and the cities of Gaza are approximately equal. 3. The number of militants, their training and their armaments, the total area of ​​the operation, in any case more important, the number of civilians.

                      . And it is precisely separated from other settlements. The density of the agglomeration does not exactly change this fact. By the way, in Grozny, it is also not possible to get past Alkhan-Kala, Alkhan-Yurt, Pobedinskoe, Berkat-Yurt, Petropavlovsk, Goity, etc. http://rf-town.ru/map1124475_0_1.htm. But the main thing is not that. Grozny was prepared for defense as a single object, with three defense rings. There was no unified defense in the Gaza Strip.

                      At the very least, this speaks of the intensity of the battles, and of the endurance of the enemy. Hamas, as you say, “ran away” after the loss of 709 militants (3,5% of the 20000 militants located throughout the Gaza Strip). Chechen fighters did not give up even after losses of orders of magnitude greater. The training of Chechen fighters is incomparable with Hamas. The Chechens served the same two years in the SA as the Russian soldiers. 1500 Chechens marched through Afghanistan, 400-500 Basayev’s fighters recaptured in Karabakh and Abkhazia. There were about 1000 mercenaries. And what kind of military training did Hamas have? Yes, no. Plus, they had nothing to fight with.

                        A lot of nonsense ... First you write that where the numbers of 15000+ militants come from, because according to the IDF, 705 died (3.5% of the total). Then I propose to solve a simple problem of the 5th grade, if 705 is 3.5%, then what is 100%. It turns out I blame the wrong rounding !!! Where?

                        So I can prove my words. Unlike you, I’m not writing. In a report of the UN commission, published on September 15, 2009, to investigate the conflict in Gaza, Israel was directly accused of: 1. Not distinguishing between military and civilian targets, 2. Intentional shelling of obviously civilians, 3. Intentionally and unjustified from a military point of view, the destruction of residential houses, industry and infrastructure; 4. The use of the Palestinian population as human shields; 5. The disproportionate use of military force. 6. The use of such anti-human weapons as white phosphorus. You can read here http://www.unrol.org/files/UNFFMGC_Report.pdf (I can remind you what tantrum this report of the UN Commission caused in Israel). So do not you dress in sheep's clothing. You always didn’t give a damn about the Palestinian population. In the Gaza Strip, you act without regard to civilians. I can remind you the practice called “knocking on the roof” when the charges of small explosive charges are dropped on the roofs of Palestinian houses. You claim that this is the IDF’s method of “warning,” but the UN commission considered this a form of attack on peaceful homes. I would say easier - this is real terror against the Palestinians.

        but Namer should not be on the battlefield to fight armored vehicles. His task is to deliver the infantry after the tanks as close to the line of dismantling as possible. In general, infantry is moving in Namers, and so the last ATGMs are in service.

                      Under the START-3 Treaty, there should be no more than 1550. Now Russia has 1480 on 492 carriers. (900 in total). Hundreds are enough for the states, because protected objects in a retaliatory strike do not have to be hit and soaked in densely populated areas (10 Vojevoda missiles with 10 bg on each conditionally speaking they will destroy 80% of the states), in the most shitty scenario 1 out of 7 necessarily flies, which means only 800 maximum. All the remaining ones will be enough in excess. For us, they are preparing about 400 epicenters (for example, 80 to Moscow with its missile defense, based on the assumption that 10 will certainly fly). And 2500-3000 KR non-nuclear in the first strike. Count how many more remain with them.

                      “Do you remember, this is the famous case when a nuclear engineer was put in prison, he served there safely and still continued to believe that he was right,” the Russian president began to reason. “Why? There is nothing anti-national and anti-Israel in his position, he is a Jew himself and a citizen of his country, but Israel's technological superiority is just such, it must be said frankly that it does not require the presence of nuclear weapons, Israel is already, in a technological military sense, several heads higher than all countries in the region. And nuclear weapons only make it a target, only create foreign policy problems for it. And in this sense, the logic of this nuclear physicist, who made public the presence of nuclear weapons in Israel, makes sense. "

                      Putin made it clear that the unconventional military potential of Israel should be discussed by the entire international community, and also recalled that having nuclear weapons, Israel would be under the sights of the headquarters - and - ah ... It wouldn’t work out in case of a big mess.

    Many times it has already been explained to people that there is no such armor that will hold a modern grenade launcher, but they stubbornly rely on weighting. Even if you create a monster with an incredibly possible thickness of armor, you’ll still come up with a weapon that will pierce it. The task of the BMP is not to go ahead on the tank and tanks. Its task is to safely deliver infantry from point A to point B no more. Today it would be strange to see infantry or even infantry fighting vehicles attacking cannons, anti-tank missiles and grenade launchers. This is how one should be a stupid commander to come up with such tactics. Most likely we will come to armored cars without crew, remotely controlled, and the infantry will perform the function of only support and protection, it can storm the cities.

        I would answer you, Alexei, to this, - if I were an Israeli, and fight for the promised land, most likely on the "Namer", if the armored personnel carrier perceived it as a bomb shelter, then also on the "Namer". If I were in Russia, and remember that there are tanks for the first line, and a good BMPT vehicle for them, that I still need to get out of the armor for battle, no doubt I personally would prefer to be with the BMP-3. Maneuverability, cross-country ability, power reserve and firepower are more valuable for war. The Namer is undoubtedly a good vehicle for the Israeli army, adapted to the geography of the region and its military missions. That's all, there is no need to go into the absolute here, otherwise we will produce "Muses" in mindless imitation.

      Nowadays, almost no longer fight in the open field. Mostly fighting takes place in settlements where there is no clear front line. Tanks in a city without infantry support are doomed. And it is heavy armored personnel carriers called upon to deliver this infantry.

        Professor - In general, every other day everything is in such dust or dirt that you will not see any camouflage.


        I think not only because of the dirt. The Israeli army is trying to use the military component as little as possible. Emphasizing that her soldiers are not professional killers. There are no ragged uniforms in the tzahal like the neighbors of the Arabs, and even the generals do not look much cooler than their soldiers. And the soldier spends less time in the barracks than in the civilian world. Therefore, on the streets and in buses, a man in khaki hurts his eyes less.

                    The English paratroopers had red boots. Since the IDF was originally built largely on the model of the English army, shoes migrated there. Red boots were lighter and more comfortable. As a result, the color of the shoes remained as a tradition.

                    In addition to the assault force, they are now worn by the Nahal and Kfir brigades (I had such), as well as units of trackers. It should be noted that the color of the shoes was not the last of the determining factors when choosing a unit.

        There are several reasons

        1) Surrounding armies go mainly in camouflage

        3) Used in the 60s paratroopers

        I like that the Israelis do not sell certain types of weapons, for example, Merkava tanks and other types of armored vehicles. I would like our armatures to be sold longer without the release of armata, why give others the opportunity to study our tank. We need to saturate our army, otherwise many plants priority is given to arms production for export, but there are already not enough capacities for themselves.

      I apologize for disagreeing. It’s just based on significant combat experience, it was decided to create a car for the battlefield, where the maximum speed does not exceed 20-25 km / h, and not for a march-throw, which led to the decision to limit the marching speeds to 60 km / h. and 105mm and 120mm Israeli tank guns were created on the basis of NATO analogues and are in no way inferior to them. Moreover, with an emphasis on improving ammunition, they often presented surprises to our opponents.

    Merkava and Namer is probably a good technique - it has only been designed for a specific LDP ... Namely, for short-distance marches and time-limited use ... Such a technique for Russia, for example
    it’s absolutely not suitable - completely different distances, climate and probable remoteness from repair bases ... I think not every bridge can withstand such equipment in Russia ... I wonder if there is infa on the Tests for Walkable?
    It is clear that the Israeli designers (based on combat experience) sacrificed maneuverability for the sake of security ... But in the BMP-3, maneuverability is good, with satisfactory protection - but this is probably a more reasonable solution for the probable LDP of Russia ...

      So, first of all, we do it for ourselves, taking care of our soldier is above all. There is no sense in the universality of the T72, if in urban conditions (and this is primarily the war of today), it is of little use. And the armored personnel carrier is generally sucks (patriots forgive me). The soldier must be protected by armor. but armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles - this is not clear armored carts, where for some reason the landing is always on top.
      You can’t fool a soldier if you don’t drive him into the BMP and the armored personnel carrier, so he feels more confident from above (open and defenseless) than inside.
      In contrast to this. I have never seen. that the IDF infantry would ride on armor, Namers, Pum or Akhzaritov.
      We can reason here until the pulse is lost, but the behavior of the soldiers is a fact from which there is no escape, in one case (inside under protection) in another from above under bullets.

        The Syrian army is quite successfully using the same T-72s in urban battles ... Maybe it’s not about the specific armored vehicles but the tactics of its use? The T-72 tank, which is already about half a century old, will you hit him? The means of destruction of armored vehicles for these same half a century have stepped far forward ...
        And universality is just good for Russia, since the distance between cities is simply enormous + rough terrain on which the tank must conduct a successful offensive ...

        So they ride on armor until they shoot at them - you look at any video that shows the use of infantry fighting vehicles in battle - no one sits on the roof there ... But if we say we go to the battlefield for more than one hour, then what's the difference - sitting inside or on the roof ?

            Watch the video Russian tank biathlon - old T-72s run and how else !!! Overcome at the speed of the ditches, eskarpy and water barriers - almost the depth of the tower !!! At the same time, water gets inside the cabin and nothing - the car rushes on ... Show me similar videos with Merkavas and I will say that I was wrong !!!
            but I didn’t understand about the distance, are you going to drive tanks between cities?

            And why not drive on their own? The T-72 covers a distance of up to 500 km - this is enough to make a march-throw between cities as well, if necessary ... The T-34 went halfway through Europe under its own power and nothing?
            I have never seen, infantry either on the armor or near under the guise of BMPs, I have never seen Russian infantrymen leading a battle from inside the BMP. share the link
            So they basically don’t fight from there because the BMP’s task - to deliver infantry to the battlefield - at the first opportunity, soldiers leave the BMP to disperse ... There is a video of Chechens firing Russian convoys of armored vehicles - something I’ve never seen in these videos I saw that the soldiers at the time of the shelling were on the roof of the BMP ...

            That's it - I want people who are knowledgeable to enlighten me on the subject of using Cornet in real military operations ... Because in addition to one video from YouTube on which it is still not clear which ATGM was used, I personally did not hear anything ...

            And what does it mean holding or not holding? There are more vulnerable areas of the tank - for example, feed or top, and vice versa less vulnerable places (you can still try to hit the same forehead with modern types of inclined armor + active armor) ... And neither Maverica nor the other ATGM systems you indicated have a probable enemy of Israel while it’s not and is not expected, but Cornet and maybe Hashim most likely already exists ...

    The difference between Israeli tank construction and the world is that the protection of the crew, and then mobility, firepower, are put in the first place

    I apologize for disagreeing. It’s just based on significant combat experience, it was decided to create a car for the battlefield, where the maximum speed does not exceed 20-25 km / h, and not for a march-throw, which led to the decision to limit the marching speeds to 60 km / h. and 105mm and 120mm Israeli tank guns were created on the basis of NATO analogues and are in no way inferior to them. Moreover, with an emphasis on improving ammunition, they often presented surprises to our opponents.

      Yes, no reason not weight, but in size. And here by the way the main violin is played by the railway platform. In our country, they led to the fact that the equipment has its current dimensions. What do you think, it’s impossible to make a tractor and a platform that can withstand the weight of the tank, nonsense, do mine excavators and trucks to them, there one bucket merkavu swallows and does not choke. But the railway platform with the tank may not crawl into the tunnel, and how can it be, is there a tunnel to remodel under the tank?

          Are you me What should I look at them? The railway platform does not allow, the same weight also plays a role, and here alas. And change, increasing, as it were, is impossible, the receiving and sending routes do not allow this to be done, it is necessary to redo the entire infrastructure, for many this is unknown, if only to reproach it. Israel does not have a similar problem.
          And so I think ours would quite like both the Nameers and the Merkavas. But the appearance of our armored vehicles is dictated not only by battle, but also by the method of its delivery to this battle. We have a large country and we do not have the ability to transfer such machines similar to Namer or Merkava. You can post pictures about the dimensions here, but the problem is at least in the same cargo yards, where and how to unload ... Yes, there are a lot of things to consider if you start digging.

              Well, there is Mriya, only not every airfield will accept it and if the landing strip can somehow increase, still most of the airfields are outside the city, then there is no railway station. Most stations, stations were built in imperial times, when cities were even smaller. Time passed and the cities began to squeeze the railway, the possibilities will no longer expand. There are just a lot of things around.

    And about the technology, to compare the universal Russian / Soviet (70-80s) BMP / BTR that successfully operate all over the world from Siberia to the tropics, and a 60 ton piece of iron at the price of a modern tank that carries 8 soldiers so that their natives from AK do not shoot. ... well, at least they’ll be surprised if people consider on an equal footing a week-long shootout with the area (Gaza, etc.) and the 5 year old world war.

    All good!
    I did not read the article with pleasure, but the bursting holivar. Thank you for the delivered! Mr. Pimple and others like him - just now pointed to the rules of the forum. So your remarks in the direction of commentators who disagree with you (like "nonsense!", Etc.) - there is a direct violation of these rules. This is true, by the way.
    On the subject of discussion. IMHO.
    Well, the Israelis like the BTR at the price of 4 (in four words) T-80UD (1,2 lyam evergreens apiece), and Gd with them! In the post-Soviet space, just such an armored troop-carrier makes no sense - IMHO.
    Let me explain.
    1. Price. No questions here? To provide not the IDF, but a more or less large army of TBTR for 5 lyam greens apiece - the post-Soviet economy will not pull.
    2. TVD. Light APCs used around the world (even Americans switch to eight-wheelers - according to their new program) have an advantage in cross-country ability (especially overcoming water barriers on their own) and transportability. The tactical and strategic benefits are obvious. Fuel supply, etc. - also, as it were, plays a role?
    3. Combat use. The task of the armored personnel carrier is to deliver infantry to the line of dismounting, and then to support it with fire. There is no need for thick armor. It plays the role of capacity, speed of delivery and weapons.

    Aside from the discussion. By technology and more. Naturally - IMHO.
    1. The attempts of some commentators to compare the technique of different purposes and different periods, as well as to compare different military conflicts, in attempts to prove their own steepness, cause only disgust and contempt. Although it’s for them, of course - to the bulb. For-b-gizbrannye and all that. So?
    2. A heavily armored infantry vehicle is needed. Namely - like a BMP, whose task is to act in conjunction with tanks and in direct contact with the enemy. And in that - the world trend is being traced. And the strengthening of the reservation BMP-3 (4), and promising developments - all to that. For BMP-1,2,3 to book their basic functions do not perform. The rest - the cars are good (each for its time).
    Combat use of technology in cities.
    1. It is not a problem for tanks of the T-72 family that the WWII experience has been safely forgotten by Russian (and other) commanders. And the tactics of storming well-fortified settlements are little dependent on technology. Stormed the city with the T-34 and IS - successfully, moreover. The same Kaliningrad.
    2. A properly organized ambush, with dozens of shots for 3-4 modern RPGs and a cover group with an arrow, no APC will survive. Even the hardest. They will knock down a gusli, cripple a turret and hammer it in armor until it is burned (there are enough vulnerabilities in BT). And when you try to get off the landing, they will put it in a pair of trunks without problems and tension. The landing party has a chance to survive this disgrace (because according to the mind a lone armored personnel carrier should not fall under such hammers) only if it is on the armor. And in the very first seconds he can make his legs, lay down and start shooting back (so, you look, and they will save their car).

    "Combat use. The task of the armored personnel carrier is to deliver the infantry to the dismounting line, and then - to support them with fire. Thick armor is useless here. The role of capacity, efficiency of delivery and weapons plays a role." - Judging by these qualities, then you'd better transfer from armored personnel carriers to armored buses.
