"Supergranatomulet" UAG-40 still can not oust the Soviet AGS-17 from the Ukrainian army

67
Last year, the Ukrainian enterprise Zavod Leninskaya Kuznitsa produced several pre-production copies of the UAG-40 automatic grenade launcher. And although the creators call it “an effective tool both against the enemy manpower and against lightly armored equipment and protective structures,” it has not yet received propagation in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The servicemen continue to use the proven AGS-17 inherited from the USSR, writes in its article published on the website Messenger of Mordoviaan expert on arms Dmitry Lemeshko.

"Supergranatomulet" UAG-40 still can not oust the Soviet AGS-17 from the Ukrainian army


According to the developers, the UAG-40 “allows firing at targets at a distance of 2200 meters, its weight together with a tripod - 31 kg (without a tripod - 17 kg), maximum length - 960 mm, grenade departure rate - 240 m / s, pace firing - up to 400 shots per minute. "



The grenade launcher mechanism is built on the basis of automation with a free gate. “The cap and the shot are made in the reel of the bolt. Submission of grenades - tape (American metal tape M16). Grenades are high-speed, all existing types of grenades of the NATO standard are used, ”the author reports.



According to the description, “the muzzle brake is designed so that, using gas from the combustion products of gunpowder, it reduces the recoil impulse, the impulse impulse impulse upwards and the spraying of particles of the soil on which the tripod is located.”



According to Ukrainian experts, UAG-40 is superior to AGS-17 in a number of characteristics. “However, it will be many more years before the novelty replaces the Soviet veteran grenade launcher. The advertised dignity - the use of NATO ammunition (which is not in Ukrainian arsenals) - significantly hinders the introduction of the Leninskaya forge product, ”Lemeshko concludes.

      Strange thing.
      The grenade launcher itself does not make the impression of crafts, although who tested it in work?
      But the machine is a squalor, and it will be pulled very strongly, especially if shooting with a strong twist will be carried out.
      The sight was impressive, yes ... Compared with the AGS, this is a step back to the times of the First World War.

      Killed on the spot price. For what?! Or is there already 500% of the rollback accounted for ??

        The fact that you (not personally you alone, but most members of the forum) are attached to this grenade launcher does not honor your knowledge. He say it was made a year ago and under a foreign customer. Therefore, under the NATO standard.

        By the date of the video (October 17, 2013), I think it’s clear that then no one thought about the ATO.

        There is a big difference in the availability of tanks and their adoption and use in hostilities. Ukraine also has T-55 tanks, and they even upgrade them at the plants, but this does not mean that the APU drives them in the Donbass.
        The maximum, at the moment, where I saw the T-72 at the security forces, is at the exercises of the National Guard and at arms exhibitions. Well, the "squeezed" APU from the militia

        Computerized fire control systems are becoming an increasingly necessary tool in modern combat conditions. It is they who are able to coordinate the actions of units, optimally establish the target distribution, effectively manage fire support systems and automatically process all kinds of data.
        USU OBU (UBLFDS) was developed by the designers of the Ukrainian company Ukranian Defense Consulting (UDC). Field tests of this system took place from August to October 2013. Representatives of Ukranian Defense Consulting, together with cadets of the RV&A faculty of the Ukrainian Army Academy at the Lviv training ground, used the UBLFDS complex using D-30 howitzers. It is worth noting that this system was originally developed specifically for the D-30 howitzer. But the computer itself can be configured for almost any artillery installation. After 20 minutes of instruction, cadets confidently used the Ukrainian system of USU OBU.
        The command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine intends to equip those units that use 152-mm self-propelled howitzers 2S3M, 152-mm self-propelled guns 2S5, 122-mm MLRS BM-21 Grad and 220 mm MLRS 9K57 Uragan.
        Later, in November 2013, tests of the UBLFDS complex were carried out already in Rivne. The 80th airmobile regiment of the Ground Forces of Ukraine took part in the exercises.
        The complex proved its effectiveness during the tests. The developers claim that this system of USU OBU allows online to distribute data over the network to speed up the implementation of various military operations. A universal fire control system makes it possible to fully automate the process of preparing combat installations for shooting, which significantly increases the accuracy of targeting.
        The UBLFDS complex includes:
        - portable computer (PDA TDS NOMAD; located at the senior battery officer),
        position sensors (located on the guns),
        - tablet PCs (for each gun commander).
        Elements are all interconnected by a wireless network. Using the position sensors, the commander will find out information about the position of the guns and their orientation. Then, at the command of the senior chief, the following data is entered: type of target, type of weapon, type of ammunition, etc., which are necessary to complete the task. The battery commander can send a message to the tablet PC at any time, so he will give a command to take a firing position. It is worth noting that the system can determine the coordinates and issue maps in many countries of the world.
        At the moment, it is known that the unit of the National Armed Forces of Afghanistan has already acquired a new Ukrainian computerized fire control system UBLFDS. About 300 sets of USU OBU were handed over to the Afghan army, where they are successfully used for firing from 122-mm D-30 howitzers. The Ukrainian command of the Armed Forces is conducting its own tests of the Ukrainian news and already intends to purchase 500 UBLFDS fire control systems in the coming months.

    The stupidity of the Krajin engineers and the desire to create another child prodigy has already surpassed the desire of Ukrainian politicians to lick the fifth point of the bhabama.

    perverted yes - they try it right, they create, yes - war need makes it all done.
    I am sure that they will finalize ..
    And the Lenin Forge not only produces grenade launchers. Gyurza's boats are also their job. A good boat for the Danube and coastal activities. In particular, for the Sea of ​​Azov.
    As for the name - in Ukraine they do not change the names of plants and factories. It is at least silly to redo documents.
    So the plant named after Malyshev and the Lenin Forge and the parks of the Lenin Komsomol as well as the streets of Zhukov and Malinovsky and other marshals. Even military schools continue to write Soviet medals in the title (Suovrova, Kutuzova, etc.).
    Naval College named after A.I. Marinesco
    Odessa National Maritime Academy has not changed its name. In general, it’s stupid to think that in Ukraine, all at once rushed to change something in history, names. Also an ifnoyna element, but are you all waiting for the Lenin Forge to change its name?
    In general, they try it too. Weapons are needed right now. 23 years disarmed .. now pecked ..

    Yes border hell with him. Ammunition for him where they will rivet? They have all the ammunition that they are now fighting from Soviet storage depots. Well, most of it at least. So without maza.
