The best protection. Overview of recent advances in active protection systems

KAZ Trophy from Rafael was tested in battle on the Israeli tanks Merkava

Although complexes (systems) of active protection are possible today are not a fully mature solution, but they are one of the ways to ensure the safety of personnel in combat operations. We will review the latest technological advances in this market and products that are currently defining trends.

The active defense complexes (KAZ) are designed to protect armored vehicles from anti-tank guided munitions and short-range missiles by destroying the projectile before it hits the vehicle.

Given all the requirements, it is incredibly difficult to develop a completely perfect KAZ. Sensors must determine the launch, assess whether the ammunition hits the vehicle, classify it and launch the interceptor in a very short period of time, often less than a second. However, KAZ is a better protection compared to passive systems, for example, false targets, or even simple addition of armor to a car.

Attempts to develop a KAZ have been going on for quite a long time. In earlier works, the Russian system Drozd and the German AWiSS system from Diehl used defensive charges with ready-made attack elements to neutralize the attacking threats. The Israeli company Rafael, however, has developed an alternative - a family of systems that fire at the target with projectile charges in a narrow sector.

Leader

According to the representative of the company Rafael, the Trophy system is the only technologically mature KAZ, which was installed on the Merkava Mk 4 tanks and was used in the operations of the Israeli army.

Over the past few years there have been attempts to develop other systems, but they never went into the series. In 2005, KAZ Close-in Countermeasures from BAE reached the level of technological readiness of 6 (experimental sample) and neutralized the grenade from the RPG-7, but it was not manufactured from 2009 of the year. Also did not go into production complex AWiSS from Diehl. Saab tested its Land Electronic Defense System’s ground-based electronic defense system on a Mowag machine in 2007. Later it was installed on the Piranha 8x8, but today there is no information about its use.

In France, the companies TDA and Thales developed KAZ SHARK, and although it reached the level of technological readiness of 8 in 2008 (tests of prototypes) and there were plans to integrate this system into the armored personnel carrier VAB 4x4 and other large vehicles, but again at the moment there is no no information. Despite the cooperation with South Korea, the Arena complex, developed by the Russian company KBM, is still in development.

Airbus Defense and Space received a contract for its Multi-functional Self-Protection System (MUSS) for its installation on the new Puma BMPs of the German army, but it does not yet have an active component (only false targets), although there are plans to developing it.

The Tactical RPG Airbag Protection System from the American company Textron, which uses air bags to neutralize the flying grenades, was funded and tested in 2005-2009 years; but since then all activity has actually been curtailed and its production has not begun. A representative of General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems regarding KAZ ShotScreen said that "at present we are not working on it due to the lack of need on the part of the American army."


In the KAZ Trophy from Rafael, so-called "energy blades" are used to protect against attacking ammunition.

Increased demands

However, Rafael believes that despite the lack of interest, the need for a KAZ will increase due to the spread of more advanced anti-tank guided munitions, RPGs and other armor-piercing missiles. In addition, in the future, the threat will come from tandem warheads, as well as unitary combat units like the RPG-7.

“You can buy RPG-7 for 80 dollars somewhere on the outskirts of Pakistan, everyone is well aware of these places,” a company spokesman said. - If you look at what is happening in Africa, then you will see tandem combat units, recoilless rifles there. Unitary warheads are still widely used there as well. ”

He noted that the proliferation of such weapons is increasing to dangerous levels and that during the French military operation Serval in Mali and in the UN mission of MINUSMA, the troops encountered Sagem missiles.

“It's like drugs. Nobody knows how Cornet rockets get from Libya to Syria, or Chinese HJ-8 rockets get to Syria, all of this is transported by sophisticated smuggling methods. Surprisingly, these guys gain experience, and they use it not just against the troops of Assad, but also any other guys that they don’t like. ”

According to the representative of the company Rafael, KAZ Trophy is intended rather for the following conflicts, and not for participation in the last war. This means creating ways to combat “complex threats”, for example, tandem warheads, rather than unitary combat units, on which other companies are still focused.

The Trophy Heavy Vehicle (HV) system developed for the Israeli army uses a countermeasure that can destroy the attacking ammunition without undermining it.

"We are talking about very small non-aerodynamic components in very limited quantities, which are released in a very focused form in the direction of a particular point in the warhead in order to destroy the threat without initiating it," the official said.

Since no explosives are used in the system, it becomes safer at close range. The machine itself is not subject to shock and damage, in addition, indirect damage to dismounted infantry and civilians is minimal. It is particularly suitable for fighting in urban space.

More benefits

KAZ Trophy has already been installed and deployed as part of an entire brigade of the Israeli army and the army continues to purchase this system. At the moment during the fighting there were several cases when the complex saved the lives of soldiers. Rafael does not want to stand still, as an obvious market leader she wants to develop the system further.

“We need to transfer KAZ to the next level right now, everyone is talking about interesting video shots of explosions and whether KAZ can hit something,” said the representative, adding that it was just a basic level that other companies are trying to achieve in non-combat space. “What we are doing now is linking the Trophy with a battle management system (CICS). This allows you to make a big step forward. ”

On the battlefield in armored vehicles, the crews often do not see the threat posed by enemy anti-tank groups. Therefore, if the KAZ Trophy automatically connects to the CICS, it can locate the shooter.

"The factor that drastically changes the rules of the game is that if the entire military formation is tied into a network, then all the machines can see each other and in the event of an attack on one machine by the anti-tank group, the whole unit can see the exact location of the shooter and aim immediately, turn the weapon and neutralize the shooter, ”he said.

Changing the defensive concept of KAZ to offensive will improve the defense, because if all the anti-tank groups know that they can be destroyed by return fire within a few seconds, they will be much more restrained.

Source selection

General Dynamics Land Systems (GDLS) in 2012 opened an international competition to test the performance of KAZ on their vehicles and selected LAV-III for testing. This platform was chosen due to the fact that the integration of KAZ is very difficult here because of potential interference with the 25-mm gun.

The process for selecting a contractor for a tender developed by GDLS was identical to the process used by the US government to speed up the development process if a decision is made to start a formal program. In 2012, this process, led by GDLS, took six months and, ultimately, in August, Rafael was selected to integrate the KAZ Trophy into the LAV-III car.

“The whole integration of mechanics, the development was carried out by GDLS - Canada, it took less than six months,” said a spokesman for Rafael. “In less than six months, we prepared for the full testing program on the new platform. Comprehensive system tests were conducted in the summer and fall of 2013, and in October 2013, we successfully completed this program.

“Under this program, GDLS showed its customers that KAZ, integrated on its platform, can be connected to the CICS. It was a new CUIS and Rafael knew nothing about her; and reintegration was successful in less than six months.

“So, the possibility of connection with the CICS was demonstrated, then the defeat of unitary warheads at short range, tandem threats, ATGM was demonstrated. Scenarios were shown in motion, scenarios of multiple attacks, successive attacks (several on one side) from different angles. The tests were carried out not only to show the "spectacular" pictures of the explosions, but also to check other elements - indirect damage, safety, residual penetration, impact, and so on. "


The roof-mounted KAZ Trophy LV from Rafael uses radar to detect targets.




The Rafael Trophy LV option provides lightweight vehicle protection

Light touch

In addition to integration with the CICS, the next step for KAZ was the development of solutions for light tactical vehicles and armored personnel carriers. Lighter vehicles are generally not subject to the same threats as heavy armored vehicles, such as MBT and BMP, are exposed. Consequently, a KAZ “younger brother” can be established in terms of mass, cost, and performance.

As a result of this experience, Rafael developed the KAZ Trophy HV version for light vehicles, designated Trophy Light Tactical Vehicles (LV).

“We immediately set a goal - to develop a system that should protect against relevant threats - the entire RPG family. This is not only unitary warheads, the main goal is the fight against tandem warheads. The system should be relevant for urban melee scenarios and low intensity conflicts. It should be easy to integrate into various platforms, and of course inexpensive. ”

Rafael refined this technology and in December 2013 of the year completed a set of tests of a single system installed on the trunk on the roof of a car. The system shoots down the so-called "energy blade", affecting the ammunition flying up.

“The energy blade is a kind of material produced at high speed due to the minimum amount of explosive that allows you to cut the threat without initiating it,” the company representative continued.

A total of seven companies participated in tests conducted by the Ministry of Defense in 2011, and Rafael was one of them. However, the report to the Congress states that the KAZ technology is not yet mature enough from a technological point of view, despite all the features demonstrated by Trophy.

One of the claimants to these tests was Artis with its Iron Curtain system. A company representative said that the developer showed himself very well in these tests and was selected to be installed on a tactical vehicle. “Again, based on convincing test results, Artis with its KAZ was chosen by BAE for installation on the new Ground Combat Vehicle [GCV].”

Like the Trophy LV system, the KAZ Iron Curtain is mounted on the roof. It uses radar to detect threats and optical sensors that classify and select the target meeting point. Then attacking elements are shot from the container in order to neutralize the attacking threat.

Artis, together with DARPA, is also continuing to develop its Iron Curtain complex so that it can be installed on any machine. A company representative also said that during the field tests in 2012 and 2013, the complex was installed on the body of the machine, but did not voice the results of these tests. The Iron Curtain was also proposed as a KAZ for the T-90 tanks of the Indian Army.


The Iron curtain complex from Artis incorporates optical sensors that classify and select a target point, and containers containing attack elements that are manufactured to destroy the flying ammunition.

Modular approach

Another American program that is gaining momentum, and may well reach production, is conducted by the TARDEC Armored Research Center, which has specifically created in its structure a department for modular KAZ.

Raytheon worked in its time on the KAZ QuickKill for the promising GCV, but since the topic was canceled at the beginning of 2014, it has been transformed into a technology program under the direction of TARDEC.

The system consists of a radar detection and tracking system, a fire control system for assessing, tracking and decision-making, and direct defeat measures. QuickKill is based on a multifunctional radar with an active electron-scanning antenna array, which has already reached the level of factory tests and which was originally developed for a missile and mortar attack warning system on advanced bases. The countermeasure component is a vertical launch system.

According to Raytheon, the company is working with the US Army to meet the requirements for an active protection complex, “in the current budgetary framework.” A company representative spoke about recent changes in KAZ requirements. “The need to improve survivability and mobility while increasing flexibility regarding vehicle type and operational tasks led us to change the development model. The integrated solution has given way to a system consisting of modular components that allow for centralized situational awareness and obtain various options for protecting the vehicle. ”

    And again, we are talking about relative technical maturity. This system is probably useless against sub-caliber ammunition and how tank protection is not effective.
    BPS cannot be stopped or cut with any blades. A proportionate energy impact is needed.

          Last operation in Gaza
          On Wednesday, July 30, the Vetrovka (Meil Ruach) active defense system installed on a tank shot down an anti-tank missile launched by terrorists at the car. According to the military, we are talking about 16 cases of using the "Windbreaker" system to repel attacks on tanks operating in the Gaza Strip.

            You should understand a simple thing: there is a huge difference between counter-guerrilla actions and the struggle against army units.

            What happens to the much-vaunted Trophy when attacking a platoon stronghold? That's right, after passing through several lines of the NZO or PZO by the time the enemy reaches the range of grenade launchers, the system will be inoperative.

            Because bootlegger is absolutely right, at the moment there are no KAZs in the world that can work effectively in real combat.

              I partly agree, but the reality is that nowadays it is more often than not to deal with "partisan" groups.

              Everything you said does not eliminate the need for such systems.
              Yes, KAZ, of course, is not a panacea for all diseases, but it significantly increases the chances of survival for the crew of a single combat vehicle. It is necessary to strive to minimize losses in personnel, the principle of "women isho narazhayut" no longer works.

              KAZ developers, of course, have done a great job, but they still have where to go. For example, nowhere did I find mention of the struggle with such toys.

I'm talking about the loss of tanks during the storming of Grozny and in general in the first company. It is unlikely that any existing defense will work for a shot from a 30 meter distance.

              You should understand a simple thing: there is a huge difference between counter-guerrilla actions and the struggle against army units.

              Right. But sometimes the difference between the concepts is almost obliterated, as recently the armament of some terrorist groups and their tactics are in no way inferior to the armaments and tactics of army units, and often - army special forces.

              What happens to the much-vaunted Trophy when attacking a platoon stronghold? That's right, after passing through several lines of the NZO or PZO by the time the enemy reaches the range of grenade launchers, the system will be inoperative.

              Are we starting to consider the situation when we have a lone tank rushing to a platoon stronghold? With a shovel, I'm sorry, but somehow you exaggerate you start the situation, I did not expect this from you.
              No panacea, and you know it perfectly. Trophy is only one of the tank's defense systems, and the tank is only part of a single cohesive army mechanism.

                  KAZ should not be underestimated. Sooner or later, they will become a mass phenomenon, like DZ. And this is not the most expensive way to increase the protection of obsolete cars, including light ones.

                    A Ukrainian movie is walking somewhere in the network - they are trying to invent a new lattice screen. They fired from 3 types (all obsolete).
                    There were 2 moments which I did not expect:
                    1 shot can "slip" between the stripes (this is how the RPG-18 passed)
                    2 RPG-22 managed to break the tip on the grill and left the course (suggested that marriage is possible)

        These fragments will only scratch him. After all, it is designed to pierce a half-meter armor, they will not even greatly affect its trajectory.

        Counteraction from the projectile of the Iron Fist system on an RPG grenade.
        During the experiments, interceptor shells ensured the destruction of grenades due to the separation of the cumulative charge and the warhead and the burning of explosives. When kinetic impact shells were used, the ammunition was detonated nearby and changed the trajectory of the armor-piercing shell, thereby reducing the effectiveness of its armor penetration.

        To change the trajectory by a few angular minutes, 3-5 meters, from the target it’s a dead poultice. Within the limits of natural accuracy. And it will not work out more strongly. The energy of the BPS is tens of megajoules, and the energy of several shrapnel fragments is a couple of orders of magnitude lower. This can both worsen and improve the efficiency of the BPS hit.

    Military equipment is becoming more and more complicated, more expensive and more expensive. Armored vehicles at the price of tanks, tanks at the price of aircraft, aircraft at the price of ships. Ships at the price of ships, but already space ones. Of course, I exaggerate, but the process is obvious. I wonder if there will be a limit to the complication and appreciation of military equipment, and if so, how science will be able to overcome it. Or will the next big war (God forbid!) Help overcome the technological and cost barrier, during which it will be possible to create a mass product with high capabilities?

      And in the second photo there is a clear "light" in the engine (maybe not even from an RPG, a burst from KPVT or ZU-23, or 2A42 armor-piercing). The engine ordered "to live a long time" and the heroic crew, along with the heroic landing force, shwydko on 4 bones, dropping feces, drew ottedov until something heavier flew in.

    So far, the current KAZ systems are too expensive and ineffective.
    At present, they can only be useful to the Israeli army, which is waging war against lightly armed partisans and popular militias.
    And then its effectiveness is most likely just an advertising "trick".
    And its cost is currently extremely high, not for nothing that in spite of all the advertisedness of this unit, it is not used by more than one country in the world (except Israel).
    And the point here is not at all that, as some Jews say, Israel takes care of its soldiers, it is the extreme high cost and low efficiency of this "product".
    Indeed, as far as we know, Israel uses them only on tanks such as Merkava -4 of which only 400 out of more than 4000 vehicles, and on armored personnel carriers which only 200 out of more than 6000 copies are in service with the ground forces of the Israeli regime.
    That is, the Israeli military leaders decided that it was necessary to defend precisely these "warriors" walking in the front ranks of the aggressors against the defenders of their land and their people opposing them.
    The rest, so to speak, "not elite" (or not very important) invaders drive tanks (without KAZ) and armored personnel carriers of the 60s of the last century, type M - 113.
    But this does not mean at all that it is necessary to abandon the development and production of KAZ, it is just that it is clearly imperfect and ineffective "for now".

                  Good evening, Oleg! Your discussion with Lopatov began as early as "within the framework", but has now slipped into mutually unfounded accusations. At the same time, no killer arguments are visible on either side. 15 successful applications of KAZ (for 3,5 years?) Is this an indicator of its reliability or not? - And the hell knows! It is not clear how many shells were fired in a real combat situation, how they fired, how many times the KAZ worked unsuccessfully, etc.

                Shovels, and it doesn’t seem to you that now you are engaged in demagogy. Full-scale war is played by other rules. And in it, tanks do not operate separately from aviation and UAVs, by the way, and artillery is not so calm. So there’s a small chance for an army like the Israeli one if that’s not getting a sub-caliber, but just a clash with mobile groups armed with anti-tank systems.

                        It’s just that in most cases, an Israeli-level army tank with artillery will not actually meet fate, or its probability is very small. But with the calculation of ATGM or ATGM - the probability is high.

    More likely not an advertisement, but an overview of developments. Israeli weapons are primarily created for the needs of the IDF; export is already a secondary task. "Trophy" or "carrot" in other conflicts and climatic zones, with a high degree of probability, will not find as many positive responses as they did in the IDF. The developers have followed the basic principle - the customer likes it.
    As for our developments, then of course they need to be continued. We need a specialized KAZ for infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers. These systems should be of modular type. So that they can be installed based on the tasks performed.

      let me disagree with you, of all the samples created by the Israeli defense companies, about thirty percent are only used by the Israeli army, the army can’t buy all that huge assortment offered to it, so here they are counting on the import of their defense technologies and believe them are in line especially for those that they have been tested in the army, precisely because everyone knows that they really work so that the army plays here as a kind of advertisement, everyone wants to buy weapons that are verified by real war and not handouts, as for merkava and kaz do not repeat nonsense, it’s not clear where I heard and merkava begin to export and many who are interested in kaz so leave the pathos and look at the real facts

                The tank kept fire for several hours with peacekeepers, ran out of ammunition and was damaged. The crew left him and joined the peacekeepers, after which he left with them on the evening of August 9.
                The tank commander, Lieutenant Alexander Popov was wounded in the leg.

                        Could. Only from RPGs and ATGMs flying along a flat trajectory, and flying to a tank from a frontal or flanking direction, parallel to a flat earth surface.
                        From this they and the KDZ "Contact-1" could be saved, which is installed on the T-72B. But the tank was destroyed from the stern. He probably ended up without infantry cover, which is why it happened.
                        In the same way, Georgian tanks were destroyed by South Ossetian militias.

                        Who: 2 T-72B tanks (tactical numbers could not be established) from the Gori separate tank battalion.
                        Where: South Ossetia, Tskhinval
                        intersection of Moskovskaya and Privokzalnaya streets (Peacemakers)
                        Destroyed on the afternoon of August 8, between 13:00 and 14:00, by a group of militiamen General Barankevich. Both crews died.

    Several times I watched this video, where allegedly KAZ Trophy knocks a grenade from an RPG 29.
    I don’t know if I’m blind, but in my opinion the grenade just hits Merkava aboard, followed by the explosion of her warhead and the destruction of the side screens of the tank.

      The video material is not enough to draw a conclusion about the destruction of the Merkava-4 MBT. In addition, the KAZ works so quickly that the human eye is not able to catch it.
      This can only be seen in slow motion, which was produced by a high-speed camera.
      Now, if a continuation were shown, as the tank burns and the tank breaks in it, then such conclusions could be drawn. But this is not in the video provided.

    In one of the countries, KAZ is being developed based on e-mail. magnetic protection. The essence is simple. Any projectile or bullet in flight has an ionization potential. A corny simple "bell" is installed with the potential integrated into the potential of the approaching projectile. As soon as it flies into the interaction zone, a plasma breakdown occurs. The speed of such a pulsed plasma flow does not need to be regulated; there is no need to wait and determine the direction of the approach of the projectile. The potential generation on the "bell" is carried out by a separate power generator. The principles of such a system have been known for a long time.

          Well wiki 65 tons of marking 4 is listed as empty without fuel ammunition with all this
          "Merkava Mk.4" [29].

          70-ton (65 t [22] - empty weight without ammunition, crew, etc.) Merkava Mk.4 has a 1,42-fold lower degree of protection (3,18 t / m³) than a 50-ton (46,5 t empty) T-90MS (4,54 t / m³). It should be borne in mind that in connection with the mass introduction of the SLA, the combat statistics of shells entering the tank changed dramatically in the 2000s - now most of the shells hit the body, not the tower. At the same time, the lower frontal sheet has a thickness (but not the equivalent of protection) of only 100 mm and it is located high, behind it is the MTO compartment. Shooting on the go is complicated by severe nose contraction. Shooting from a place is complicated by the exhaust of the engine going in front of the MSA devices (in the sector ± 15 °). Elements of KAZ are located openly and are vulnerable to bullets and fragments (which is also characteristic of other KAZ) [13].

          The machine is significantly (300 mm or more) higher than its counterparts [30].

Let’s explain, try to quickly shift the measurement to 5 thousand km, and most importantly, that she could enter the battle on the move. I wish you good luck if you succeed laughing
              At their core, carrots are heavy mobile bunkers, not tanks. The concept of the front engine arrangement does not provide additional protection if the enemy has modern anti-tank guns, see above everything is written. Most importantly, the marking 4 is not very mobile because of its weight and dimensions, as well as abrams.

                    As a result of the increase in the range of fire contact, the Merkava, originally created under the conditions of a particular theater, turns out to be in an extremely disadvantageous situation. - starting with 2 and over km, the shells of her guns do not pierce the frontal armor of foreign tanks, while the shells of the guns of her opponents pierce the armor of the Mercury lines at the distance to 3 km, NLD armor - at the distance to 4 km.

      As for the T-90 and T-90MS, this is the same if you compare Mark 2 to Mark 4.

        Dear I brought this table and would ask you to pay attention only to tanks, other nonsense is not interesting to me now, look at the most significant indicator in our dispute is the detection parameter, so it is higher on carrots than on your t-90ms and this parameter is the most important, my analogy so that you can understand this as a duel of a person with one hundred percent vision and a person with short -4 vision, one has a rifle with an optical sight and the other pm has one has a new body armor and the other has a Russia shirt ahead and you talk about some super fantastic novelties there which you supposedly have, but nobody saw them in the combat units, but we have it all in the combat units and are ready to be used, that’s all the difference is that one is a teaser and the other is about your armature dear enough, there are mushrooms there is no armata and you want I will tell you its secret and there will be no money for the project for a long time sawed and eaten and nothing good except for handouts and rumors did not do that's all at current oil prices, I think the second time they don’t allocate so that you will be upgrading your t-72 for another very long time

          I drew attention to the tank to compare the flight range of a guided missile and a projectile is extremely incorrect, is not it true and as I know from Israel, both marking 2 and carrot 3 are also for armament. The question is how many 4 markings do you have?
          Thus, in early January, 2000, in the course of hostilities to liberate Grozny, one of the regiment's assault squads led fierce battles in the area of ​​the railway depot. The actions of the motorized infantry, as expected, were supported by the T-72B tanks of the regiment's tank battalion. The enemy defended stubbornly and desperately, skillfully using large quantities of anti-tank grenade launchers and even anti-tank systems. Therefore, despite the well-organized and constantly maintained interaction of tanks with infantry, a powerful fire damage inflicted on the enemy by artillery, combat vehicles were still subjected to repeated hits of grenades and even ATGM.
          In the course of these battles, the tank with onboard No. 611 got the most. For 2 days of continuous hostilities, this vehicle got 3 Fagot ATGMs and 6 RPG-7 grenades.
          The hits occurred in the following parts of the tank.
          ATGM - to the left under the tower (all):
          • two - in the fuel tanks on the fenders under the turret, which, during the fighting, the tank crews always kept them “dry”. Bucky swelled and torn, then the elements of the hinged dynamic protection on the tower worked, there was no armor penetration;
          • one - in the board under the tower; reflected by the triggered element mounted dynamic protection mounted on rubber metal side screens.
          Grenades from RPG-7:
          • one - on top of the commander's hatch of the tower; a cumulative jet pierced the hatch and, without hitting the tank commander, went into the aft wall of the tower;
          • two - to the left in the upper frontal part of the tower; neutralized with activated elements of mounted dynamic protection;
          • three - on the hull side, 2 on the left and 1 on the right; all reflected by dynamic protection elements mounted on rubber-metal side screens.
          As a result, not a single hit resulted in the loss of combat capability of the tank, which continuously continued to perform the combat mission. This fact was confirmed during the personal conversation of the author with the commander of this tank and the company commander in June 2000. Moreover, the commanders of the units confirmed that all the other battalion tanks had been repeatedly hit by an anti-tank missile and RPG grenades, had explosions on mines and land mines . But all the crews remained alive, and the tanks were efficient! After explosions on mines and land mines, the equipment was restored in a short time, either by the forces of the crews, or by military repair agencies, depending on the nature of the damage received.

    The question is, what about oil, and it cost 40 to live did not die. As I understand it, shale happiness will burst hello to the "light elves" Moreover, Russia increased its gold reserve by 37 tons in September, increasing reserves for the sixth month in a row, according to the International Monetary Fund. The entire gold reserve of Russia is 1149 tons. We exchange empty candy wrappers (that is, $) for physical gold. Here's another question for you. Israel, I hope, does not keep its gold with the light elves, otherwise they say that it (gold) has not been in storage for a long time, there is only tungsten wrapped in gold foil.

      This is approximately 50 billion dollars.
      The debt of Russian companies to Western banks is $ 700 billion.
      To pay, you need to accumulate 15 times more gold.

    The Artis Iron curtain complex includes optical sensors that classify and select a target point, and containers containing striking elements that are released to destroy the flying munition ... Especially for this type of protection, make a tandem charge, the first fragmentation rocket. explodes in front of the machine and demolishes this system, the second pierces the side.
