Russia purchased from Belarus an unmanned airship "BAK EM"

Belarus has delivered the first unmanned airship BAK EM to Russia, which can be used for aerial reconnaissance and observation missions. The airship was developed at SPC “BAK and Technologies” (Belarus). Work on the creation of an unmanned aircraft class of airships was carried out with the 2010 year, and now begins the delivery of UAVs in Russia. About this with reference to the head of the Scientific and Production Center "BAK" reports Interfax-AVN.

Head of BPC and Technology Research and Production Center Yury Yatsyna:

Shipment to Russia was made last month. It is expected that in 2015, the delivery of complexes of this type will be continued.

At the same time, Yatsyna reports that the tests of the unmanned reconnaissance airship were successfully completed. In this case, it is particularly emphasized that the tests were conducted with the participation of the Russian side, which was the customer of this device.

The unmanned airship "BAK EM" is designed to operate taking into account wind gusts up to 14 m / s. In the original version, the device could perform observation of the terrain at wind speeds up to 8 m / s.

Characteristics of "BAK EM":
length - 8,7 m;
shell diameter - up to 2,63 m;
maximum flight altitude - 0,5 km;
flight speed - up to 60 km / h;
weight - up to 30 kg;
payload (with mainly video equipment and various sensors) - up to 3 kg;
autonomy of work in calm weather - up to 11 hours;
radius of action - to 50 km.

Such an apparatus can be used to control borders, monitor the state of forests for formation of a source of fire, to monitor the progress of military exercises, etc.

And what .. Interesting such crap It hangs and hangs ... Only the load capacity is small

[chunga-changa]

A balloon hangs, the airship just flies actively. Yes, with a payload, of course, a complete bummer, a simple camera, a power supply and a transmitter, and that’s all. In my opinion, UAVs with the same load will be much smaller, cheaper and easier to operate.

[Edvagan]

an unmanned aircraft is absolutely CURRENTLY in operation (airships approach water transport in terms of efficiency). In addition, the airship can be in the air much longer than a drone.

[Themi30]

More carrying capacity - more size - more weight - more energy costs to keep it - shorter flight duration.

[twviewer]

3 kilo payloads as many as 2 webcams, 2 batteries, and a transceiver.
powerful, stylish, youth.
PS I see the wheels, but where are the pedals ?!

[hyperion121]

Yes, this is an idea! And imagine a tandem on a blimp of 10 people-cyclists, balloonists, this is what I understand sports equipment! Even a new sport, cycling races!

[Neksel]

And you also need to buy carts with horses from Moldova, for example, put Maxim machine guns on them. And Th, also a useful thing for patrolling ...

Come on, don’t jerk, as if we didn’t use observation balloons. The normal direction of development.

[Juborg]

In general, it’s a very useful and necessary thing. Observation flights with minimum costs and maximum efficiency. These are observations of sections of the border, road, fire conditions and others. Still, we would know the price, otherwise Belarusians break prices not childishly.

[Viktor Kudinov]

And it’s a particularly valuable thing for carnivals, demonstrations, promotions!

[KAPITANUS]

In the war zone, I think it will be useless. The target is flying.

[Telakh]

What will you do to him? There are a bunch of balls inside the inflated ones. Single bullets are not scary. Not only will the position be illuminated (if there is / equipment there), so he will fly back calmly.
And with 500 meters, you probably don’t need to tell how many kilometers a good view opens?

[Wedmak]

As soon as such devices are used everywhere, a modification of some sort of MANPADS or ATGMs with a thermobaric warhead will immediately appear. The height is small, visually visible, any soldier will be able to flinch.

[JIaIIoTb]

Read the article carefully. It is created for peaceful purposes.

[Wedmak]

I read it carefully. But here the site is called like that .. did not tolerate. )))

[Dreamwriter]

You can hide in the clouds. It is visible visually, but almost invisible in the infrared range, as far as I know. If you can somehow make it stealth for radars (cover there, maybe change the shape of the balloon a little), you will get a very good scout.

[Giant thought]

Yes, in a combat situation, it’s useless for him, like a goat’s milk, but in peacetime, of course, it will come in handy.

[korjik]

If he climbs a couple of kilometers, and he does not fly below, then shooting at him will be ineffective.

[Leonid_Ka]

Actually a very useful thing. The airship is weakly visible on radars, it can be in the air for a long time. Destroy is problematic because the airship is divided into many small compartments.
And as a carrier of DRLO equipment, communications, radio intelligence and RTR - a very useful thing!

[Themi30]

And where did you read about military assignment? written in black and white for what it is.
And so it can be argued that trucks are not needed in the army - well, they are not tanks, a bullet will hit it.

[vdtomsk]

Again the airship fashion has gone! States build balloons ...

[Ober.K]

In topic:
-Obama - "Tell me, what is an airship?"
-Putin - "This is an egg-shaped body that flies"
-Obama - "I have two egg-shaped bodies, but I don't fly ..! ??"
-Putin - "You have a flight mechanic" POC "....

[dchegrinec]

Invisible bladder! It was necessary to at least pick a color to match the color of the sky, once a scout.

[Themi30]

he is not for the war zone, we can’t read, no?

[crambol]

Judging by the parameters of this space bike to observe the women behind the fence of a neighboring yard. No more.

[valentina-makanalina]

Have we forgotten how to make balloons?
Manure from behind the hillock will also begin to be imported soon?

[kolyhalovs]

Belarus - is it because of the hillock? But what about all our alliance unions?

[Themi30]

This is called politics - if necessary, we will carry shit from Zimbabwe if there are reasons (economic or political). Not because we need their shit, but because we need what they give us if we buy their shit.

[crambol]

Environmentally Friendly - YES!

[Dreamwriter]

And what are so many negative comments? Airships - quite a suitable flying machine, with very good potential. This one is good for observation.

[BOB48]

there is a better one for a long time !!!!

[IAlex]

And everyone here said that in Belarus there is no aviation industry.

[Liasenski]

Why not - there is. Helicopters are assembled in Orsha, and we produce drones at aircraft repairs. And recently, on BT, I saw how Lukashenko gave the order to develop and produce his C-300, and this is already air defense. Let's live, as they say - we'll see.

[SAM 5]

Such an apparatus can be used to control borders, monitor the state of forests for the formation of a fire, to monitor the progress of military exercises

Will they shoot at him in exercises? Or during a fire? This is not a combat vehicle.

[aszzz888]

You look and come in handy on the farm.

[Yon_Silent]

The defeat of the balloon is a continuous headache in anti-aircraft gunners. Americans in the 50s massively used high-altitude ADS (automatic drifting balloons) for reconnaissance of the territories of the USSR of interest. It quickly became clear that knocking down this bandura was not easy. More precisely, it’s easy to get ... But to drop it to the ground, it’s not even at all. The holes from the airgun shells are scanty, there is practically no gas from there. We tried rod warheads - so the radio fuse does not work as it should, and there is no contact action from the film. Thermobaric ... yes, at an altitude of 11 km there is nothing to burn, the oxygen cat wept. As a result, the pilots received instructions to shoot at the suspension of the balloon, where there was a camera and supporting systems.

[SAM 5]

Okag it happens

[gregor6549]

It is even more difficult to hit the balloons now. The fact is that the most advanced of them consist of gates that automatically open when a projectile or rocket approaches and. when they fly through without hitting anything, they close again. The idea of ​​the gate was put forward and first implemented by V.I. Chapaev, when he flew with Petka to fight in Vietnam against the "minke". And for the flight, they adapted an ordinary gate to which they attached an engine from a tractor with a propeller. True, there was also a drawback in this apparatus: the pilots were tired of opening and closing the gates with each air attack.

He is impersonal, somehow. It is necessary to write "But father" on it, and on the other hand, in large: OBAMA-CH_MO! And fly to the border with kaklamy-watch the construction of the egg wall

[gregor6549]

Well, here’s a ready-made platform for domestic aerostat radars and other means of monitoring the air, sea and ground conditions. This platform is able to reach a given point in the airspace by commands from a remote control unit and automatically compensate for possible balloon displacement along all 3 coordinates. Those. what the doctor ordered. Again, such a bubble allows you to refuse to attach it to the Earth with cables. cables and other harnesses and to transmit data to ground control gears over a wireless data line.
I'm glad for my fellow countrymen. While others are arguing about the appropriateness of such "bubbles", they are already making them. The main thing is that this product gets to the thinking "eaters"

[officer29]

But I'm wondering! And where did the development of airships by Russian designers go ?! Or, as always, "there is no prophet in his homeland"? Why then, one wonders, on each MAKS these airships "hang"!

[SAM 5]

Type of air balloons.

[Yon_Silent]

The DKBA blinded something very similar to the Belarusian airship. And you can bring anything to the MAX, this is an exhibition) Buy it, like it, look it ...

[serjant4]

you can watch traffic jams))) a useful thing, however, this airship

[Prager]

the article just smiled!

Similarly. The Germans at the Baum-2012 exhibition in Stuttgart had twice as much crap similar to a banner, and ten times as large rolled the visitors.

Achievements of domestic aeronautics are really amazing.

[Vanya]

here, small size is just an advantage

[Babai34rus]

It seems to me that we do not need this crap! Well dad pleased :))

[Urri]

Even here I remembered foreign experience. The Montgolfier brothers provided an order of magnitude greater payload. a ram flew in a basket.

[Greendragon1864]

this device can serve for observation in peacetime, but it seems to me that this is not a machine for participating in directly military operations

Getup stupidities. The smaller the little swell, the pot of yana at the Pavilion of Trimaets, and the lyak taksama pot.

Well, tady uzho "sho kazhytse".

"Add value".

Sorry. I won’t bullies anymore.

[hyperion121]

By the way, why has no one put solar panels on the shell to increase autonomy? Thin films should not weigh much.

[Thirsty for wind]

At the same time, it is emphasized that the tests were carried out with the participation of the Russian side, which was the customer of this device.

Tech Har were designated by the customer. For specific tasks. Cheap, angry, comfortable. No one will carry bombs on it; cameras, infrareds, thermal imaging are supposed to fit. A pair of devices provides almost round-the-clock surveillance.
Although most likely the battery is changing to a charged one and going up, observe further.
It is clear that you want bigger, faster and higher ...
Only here on the belazs no one delivers pizza. Cabinets are not transported on ferarii and pistons.
Simple and effective for certain purposes, a completely appropriate device.

Russia, as I understand it, has bombs, missiles and the like ploppush, and without us there is something to carry.

And here I am interested! And where did the development of the airships of Russian designers go? !!

Better ask, where did the money allocated for this matter go?

[Thirsty for wind]

What! Again at the uralvagonzavod you offer nails (with a clogging sensor) and pans (with a wash detector) to do?

[Svetovod]

I'm cloud-cloud-cloud, I'm not BePel at all
Where did the stone suddenly fly into this cloud? ...

The good thing is that the airships lifted them up on steel cables above the clouds, and on You is an early warning network for foreign flying. Then you and the air defense system on board and solar panels can take the whole top.

[Oldman]

Its main advantage is autonomy, 11 hours in the air. In our Belarusian press the payload was indicated - 10 kg.
