Artillery and anti-aircraft missile systems appeared on the Indian aircraft carrier "Vikramaditya"

39
The Indian Navy completed the first (after being commissioned) modernization of the aircraft carrier Vikramaditya, the former Russian aircraft carrier Cruiser Admiral Gorshkov, reports MIC with reference to the Indian commander fleet Murugesana.



Murugesan said that “in the process of modernization, the ship was equipped with Russian 30-mm six-barrel automatic ship-based artillery systems AK-630 and Israeli ship-based missile-launched Barak-1 artillery systems”.

“In the near future, Vikramaditya will be ready to return to service,” he added.

Help newspaper: “The aircraft carrier arrived in India in January 2014 of the year. The supply contract was signed on 2004. Under the terms of the agreement, India received the ship free of charge, but paid for its repair and modernization in Russia, as well as the delivery of MiG-29K / KUB carrier-based fighters, Ka-27 and Ka-31 helicopters intended for basing on the aircraft carrier.

            One single ocean and already an aircraft carrier, another is under construction. With our participation it seems.

            And how many oceans does Russia have? And the seas?

          Barak - Israeli ship-based anti-aircraft missile system designed to conduct object-based air defense of ships from aircraft, anti-ship missiles and guided bombs. A ground version of the system has been developed.
          The Barak air defense missile system was developed jointly by the IAI and Rafael firms. It was adopted by the Israeli Navy in 1987 and is in service with the Navy of India, Singapore, Taiwan, Venezuela. The first complex delivered to India was installed on the Indian aircraft carrier Viraat.
          The launch of Barak anti-aircraft missiles is carried out from a vertical launch installation. When in the TPK, the wings and rudders of the rocket are folded. An interceptor missile is a two-stage solid fuel missile equipped with an active homing radar. After launch, the Barak rocket performs vertical climb for 0,6 s, and then turns on a combat course.
          When intercepting an air defense system, Barak uses an EL / M-2248 multi-purpose surveillance, tracking and guidance radar (MF-STAR) manufactured by ELTA Systems, which consists of four fixed antenna arrays.
          Advanced Barak air defense systems can shoot down planes, ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, guided aerial bombs, unmanned aerial vehicles and helicopters of the enemy within a radius of up to 10 km in difficult weather conditions at any time of the day. The defeat sector is 360 °.
          The cost of the Barak air defense system is about 24 million dollars, the Barak rocket has a cost of about 1,6 million dollars per unit

      Not only buy:
      "The Indian Air Force has adopted the Akash short-range anti-aircraft missile systems developed by the Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) of India.
      The development of the Akash anti-aircraft missile system, designed to combat aircraft, helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicles, has been underway since 1984. There is an opinion that the Indian air defense system was constructed on the basis of the 2 Soviet 12K1971E “Square” anti-aircraft missile system.
      The complex includes a fire control center, a multifunctional radar station, three rocket launchers, communication and support vehicles. A phased array radar allows you to simultaneously track up to 64 targets and guidance up to 12 missiles.
      Akash is capable of engaging targets at low and medium altitudes at a distance of 25 kilometers, being the only air defense system fully developed by Indian enterprises. By 2030, the Indian military intends to arm itself with XNUMX Akash to protect critical facilities. "

      At the insistence of the Indian side, the deck was coated, which began to fly off pieces. After the first running, bald spots appeared. The Indians did not give anything to change. So interestingly, they still replaced this coating, or so they will fly

          There, Chinese bricks were thrown out and overlaid with those that were prescribed by the manufacturer.

    The Israelis threw the Indians with the Israeli air defense systems. Those air defense systems that were installed on the aircraft carrier were removed from the decommissioned Indian ships, one of which was specially written off ahead of time in order to remove the Barak-1 air defense system from it and install it on the aircraft carrier. Air defense systems ordered in Israel were not delivered to India. India ordered new air defense systems for an aircraft carrier in Israel, but did not receive it. And it is unlikely to receive. Therefore, they decided to put the old Israeli air defense systems from the decommissioned ships.

        Oddly enough, from India and Israel.

        "" An air defense system will be installed on an aircraft carrier from another ship, which is about to expire. "" The system is working, and we have such plans. "

        The air defense systems installed on the aircraft carrier were removed from the Indian frigate "Godavari" decommissioned for this purpose. From it, both launchers and a radar station are installed on the aircraft carrier. The anti-aircraft missiles themselves for the complex were also taken from the decommissioned patrol ship.

        I understand that it’s unpleasant to realize that Israel is throwing weapons and not fulfilling contracts, but it’s real.

    I, of course, put a plus on the article, and precisely for the fact that ours STILL CAN !!! Roosevelt said even before "Harbor": Who owns the ocean, he owns the world. To be honest, we were a great maritime power, but "through I can not." And if they wanted her to stay, they would have stayed. BUT: The best drg of the "iron lady" ruined what had been done for centuries. And this starts not with Peter, but also with the Hansa of Novgorod. Who remembers kissing a daisy with the first president? I think many of those present. And who remembers the speech of the daisy in parliament 79m? : "A population of 15 million is quite enough for Russia." For example, I remember my grandfather's indignation - I was 10 years old, but he owned an English language and in the "international panorama" listened not to what Bovin was saying, but to the voice in the frame between the translation and the comments ...
    Now, for the last 5 years, judging by the accumulated information, I got the impression that the military industry forces working for OUR OBORN are mainly involved in the air defense and the Strategic Missile Forces (including the underwater component). - We keep "to inflict unacceptable damage from under the air defense-missile defense umbrella" in force, and this is still the main thing. And then we do not know what we need ... From a purely human point of view, it is clear - do not climb and there will be no problems, but then why do we need "Mistrals" and even outdated in the 80s? Why are aircraft carriers intended to cover amphibious operations if you know which ones? where? and most importantly why?
    Here, in order not to lose the experience of their construction, as well as the entire range of weapons equipment, etc., then of course. To do this, work is definitely necessary and it turns out not just for money, but also for the future that you cannot predict.
