Airborne mobile communications tested in the Arctic

NIISSU JSC (part of the Constellation concern) completed the Arctic tests of the Andromeda-D mobile communication and control system created for the Airborne Forces, reports RIA News message of the union press service.

“Andromeda-D” is an automated system designed to form communication channels, stable information networks at the operational and tactical levels. The Andromeda-D modernized automated control system includes hardware communications, command and staff vehicles, mobile command posts and other equipment, ” - said in a statement.

The system provides control of the airborne unit, as well as interaction with other military units in combat conditions. Deliveries of the upgraded generation of the system to the troops began this year.

“NIISSU JSC has successfully completed the Arctic tests of the modernized generation of Andromed’s automated control system,” the release says.

It is noted that “the formerly Andromeda-D ACS had a good reputation on one of the Center-2015 military exercises, one of the most recent in recent years, and successfully proved itself as a result of the exercises of the rapid-reaction forces of the CSTO countries“ Interaction-2015 ”.”

Communication is the cornerstone of military affairs. The more modern and reliable the better.

Airborne mobile communications tested in the Arctic

Tariff "Polite" - all incoming calls are free! ..

[Vitaly Anisimov]

I am pleased to read articles about the actions of our Army and Navy in the Arctic! I understand that all this is expensive and the conditions are harsh ... But our children and grandchildren will appreciate it, sooner or later! Our Arctic was and will be!

[nizrum]

For some reason, VDVshnik immediately introduced himself with a mobile and a cell tower based on the Urals ...

Pleases it. I remember that before, little attention was paid to communications. They caught on in time, now everything is on the level - without the connection of the integrated piece of iron, they will remain pieces of iron.

Little is not the right word! 08. 08.08 troops control was carried out by mobile phones, about the interaction of different branches of the army was practically absent ...

[Trigger-Happy]

What is this level? Here is a comrade about 08.08.08 the case is written - there was no connection, there was no interaction. And if someone thinks that a change has occurred, then I will disappoint ... unfortunately this is not so. We have new tanks for export are delivered with the radio station R-173 still Soviet-made.

I look forward to reports of tests of airborne communications technology in Alaska ...

Reliable communications are the foundation of modern combat operations. Without ACS it is impossible to react quickly enough, and therefore effectively, to changes in the operational environment. Compared with the war of the three eights, the situation with communications has improved dramatically. What can not but rejoice!
P.S. It would not be bad to test this system in a hot humid equatorial climate, for the Airborne Forces it will not be out of place

So let’s drink for communication without marriage!

For communication without marriage. This comic motto of workers in all communication sectors has become their real credo, guaranteeing the high quality of radio, television and the Internet.

Of all the known types of communication,
Only for one I do not drink, however.
I do not respect communication without marriage ...
Such, you see, ugliness.
--
I often drank for wire connection.
I drank a liter for this annually.
But still, a lover of wireless communication
"FOR THE RADIO!" - a separate toast always.
--
And, since such a booze has already gone,
I now glorify those with a loud toast
Who on duty listens to the morse code:
I WISH YOU ETHER WITHOUT INTERFERENCE !!!

You mean landing in Syria or Qatar?
In this regard, it is also interesting how this Andromeda-D got into the Arctic. Parachute landing? Or loading and unloading at the airport? Or on your own?

Well, I didn’t mean landing in Syria and Qatar Because this is already a military application, not a trial. But Venezuela, Brazil, Cuba ... At the same time, joint exercises can be organized.
And as to how exactly these tests took place (whether there was a landing, etc.) this is of course an interesting question, but we (ordinary people) do not dedicate us to such details

Communication for the Airborne Forces, then they landed, otherwise how to check the suitability

Fighting vehicles of course could drop. A transmitter is installed on each landing machine, which turns on at the moment the parachute system is triggered during landing.

But there is no reliable information on the landing of the machines of the Andromeda-D complex.
Only the deputy general director of the United Instrument-Making Corporation Sergey Skokov said: - The system is mobile, moves by aviation and on military equipment of high cross-country ability and can be quickly deployed in any unprepared terrain.
That this "travels by aviation" specifically means ?

But no, there was information. On the NIISSU website they wrote: "Depending on the tasks, it is mounted on the chassis of landing vehicles, amphibious armored personnel carriers BTR-D and BMD-2 and BMD-4 airborne combat vehicles."
I hope this is so, landing.

Good news! Communication has always been a weak point of our army. I know firsthand, he served in a regiment of communications near Leningrad (Black River).
