Military aerostat relay "Peresvet" enters the stage of state tests

A tethered aerostat complex with a repeater of a new generation, which was developed in the interests of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, is entering the stage of state tests.

"State tests should begin in the coming weeks", - quotes the source in the defense industry "Military Industrial Courier".

It is planned that the program of state tests of the balloon complex will be completed by the end of this year.

“According to the results of state tests, documentation will be corrected, the balloon will be finalized, it will be assigned a serial sample letter, after that the complex will be included in the state defense order for serial deliveries,” said the source.

According to him, the delivery of Peresvet complexes is included in the armaments program up to 2020.

“Earlier, the delivery of the first two complexes in the current year was expected, however, due to the prolongation of the periods of state tests, deliveries are possible no earlier than 2016 of the year,” the source stressed.

According to him, experts from Dolgoprudny Design Bureau of Automatics ”(DKBA) participated in the development of the Peresvet.

“At the request of the customer, DKBA manufactured the second shell of the balloon, which must also take part in state tests. Now the factory tests of the second shell are completed before the second balloon is submitted for state tests, ”the source said.

Previously, it was reported that the Peresvet balloon would be the main element of the new-generation relay complex. He will be able to "stand" in the air for about 15 days without additional filling with gas at altitudes from 100 to 3000 meters.

The right decision is it !!! Such a repeater is cheap and mobile. It is useful not only in war, but also in peaceful life. Especially in underdeveloped areas of the country.

[Helicopter]

Brutally.

[Finches]

My theme is connected! We are moving from the field backbone communication network to (POSS) to the integrated automated digital communication system of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (OACSS RF Armed Forces) consisting of echelons: space, air, sea, ground - balloons, one of the elements of the air echelon!

[Batia]

Also my topic. I can say, well, finally. The idea and development began in the late 80s. And the idea is very good. Signalers understand.

Come in handy not only in war,

Its use in combat conditions is debatable ... It is practically defenseless, it will not be difficult to bring down it from small arms (any DRG can destroy it) ...

And in peacetime - yes, it will help to cover our vast territories with affordable communications ...

[Basarev]

I also don’t like being indulged in soft tethered balloons. When will the Tsiolkovsky airship finally be built? ZMC-2 flew excellently - more than ten years without a single accident. He would fly further, but in connection with the beginning of the war, the Americans took it apart for metal. This airship itself in practice confirms the accuracy of Tsiolkovsky’s calculations, the practical feasibility and economic feasibility of an all-metal airship. But the matter was more than seventy years ago, when technology was extremely backward. So now I do not see any obstacles to the construction of a huge atomic armored airship. Build from bearing armor to hold 30 mm in all angles.

A communication balloon does not hang over enemy territory; it is unrealistic to shoot down a target from a small weapon at an altitude of 2-3 km. It will not even be easy to see him. The anchor point is guarded. So for DRG this is not an easy task.

Make a modification of the AWACS from it, the maximum height of 3000 meters is http://vpk-news.ru/node/24972, which means it can monitor airspace at a good range.

[Basarev]

And if it is soft - maybe he can organize a relatively small compartment in the nose hangar? So that it is stored there folded?

[anakonda]

A good fat man, you can also build airships - AWACS-type patrols, anti-submarine airships and other types,

[domokl]

Quote: anakonda

, you can also build airships

Infa for the joint venture They are building already. And not only for what you offer, but also as transport workers. Development is periodically shown at military exhibitions. If you are lucky, in May I will post materials specifically for you on air blades and other undeservedly forgotten "oldies"

[Batia]

Transport workers are one thing, but as a communication repeater is another. There are many other requirements that could not be solved for a long time. For example, at an altitude of (....) km to ensure the stability of the location and that the tissue does not decompose under the influence of ultraviolet radiation at least a "certain" lifespan.

[Dreamwriter]

By the way, is it known what probable carrying capacity will be for such transport airships? As I understand it, much higher than that of airplanes?

In the 80s, people like these constantly flew over the city, but why did they fly then and still I can’t eat.

Change the tobacco factory .. Levak driven Sasha is healthy. It was for this purpose that they flew, for which this one was intended. Only then did they work as high-altitude radio antennas. They increased the distance of radio stations

[Alexander Romanov]

That’s why they flew, for which this one is intended.

Well, finally, 30 years have passed and I learned the fuck they flew
Great Sanya

[oldkap22]

ropes (nets) were attached to them to make it difficult for aircraft to maneuver (difficulty bombing)

[ARES623]

It is necessary to hang these balloons on the border with Ukraine. It will be possible to view up to 200 km deep into enemy territory by means of instrumental intelligence :-))))

What for? We already know what is happening there. And where, and who, and where, goes to the toilet, the commanders of New Russia know and possess information. It’s only the OSS that is not sighted, and it seems to me that they are cunning.

[kind]

in the 80s, with the help of balloons, experiments were carried out on geodetic reference and transmission of coordinates over long distances.

[Slavs69]

Such relay systems were supposed to be part of the "Safe City" system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In addition to relaying, the installation of video surveillance systems was calculated. The use was foreseen during various mass events. But the cost of the entire Safe City system was not supported by local municipalities. They waved a pen. In some cities it seems like there are millionaires, but otherwise it's "twilight" ....

It's nice that my thoughts about balloons come true!
It's a good thing, instead of a drone on your own land at the border, lift it a kilometer to
two and collect real-time information on the situation in the border areas
Couple of weeks!

[bolat19640303]

The main thing is not costly and efficient.

Pretty vulnerable for the same nameless drone with warhead

[a.hamster55]

Well, if you equip it like shrapnel or buckshot. Multisectivity with automatic pumping. Distance from the line of contact. The ability to change the level.

Why, you can go on top and drop something incendiary like napalm onto the shell

[3vs]

This will be an attack on Russia from an "unnamed drone with a warhead"
yes across the border!

What can be said about this: only the good, would be more of such news.
