Guided missiles will be developed for Smerch and Tornado-S

The Smerch and Tornado-S volley-fire systems will receive guided missiles, reports RIA News the post of the Deputy Chief of the Missile Forces and Artillery Alexander Drahovalovsky.

“For Smerch and Tornado-S, guided missiles will be developed in the future that will accurately hit targets,” Dragovalovsky said in an interview with Russian Service News».

As previously reported, “MLRS Tornado-S” will significantly increase the combat potential of the existing Smerch through the creation of a new family of missiles, new approaches and improvements that are associated with topographic and geodetic binding, guidance. ”

MLRS "Tornado-S" will significantly increase the combat potential of the existing "Smerch"

Fuck, what is it? How can one MLRS increase the potential of a completely different MLRS? It's like writing: "Armata" will significantly increase the combat potential of the T-72B3.

[smith7]

It can increase ... if the Tornado-S modernization of the Tornado and if Armata modernization of the T-72B3. In general, journalists often confuse different technical subtleties. Need to understand and forgive

Yes, colleagues, sorry blunted, mixed up with Tornado-G.

Meehan, you're like, "YESTERDAY BORN"!

[spiriolla-45]

Electronics is becoming cheaper, more advanced and more accessible, so it becomes, from all sides, more profitable to have guided shells. So soon we will begin to equip cartridges with software into Kalash, just like in the movie "The Fifth Element".

To soak pointwise ... Becomes a "chip" of Russia! and this is just the beginning

In order to wet pointwise, operational intelligence must be provided. And to quickly cover the area is cheaper than a volley with cluster warheads. And it’s for sure that our iskander with dots-u shoot, although judging by the shelling of New Russia, the effect is not so hot.

well not so completely different... MLRS "Tornado-S" is a receiver of MLRS "Smerch".

the new missiles being developed for the Tornado-S can be used on the Smerch

well, not so completely different. MLRS "Tornado-S" is a receiver of MLRS "Smerch".

Yes, there isn’t much difference, the main thing is the caliber, so that you can put the receiver of control signals from the network-centric system there, then EVERY missile can be sent to INDIVIDUAL coordinates.
True, the volley will be much more expensive ...
A good thought.

[kamski]

It will be cheaper and significantly it will not be necessary to shoot at one target in one gulp from all the guides, just one rocket will be enough. It seems more expensive, but it’s cheaper

[Lt. Air Force stock]

I read that the range of combat employment of the Tornago-S MLRS will increase to 200 kilometers, with such a range the rocket 100% must be controllable, it will be difficult to hit without correction.

[Alexey-74]

Everything that our military-industrial complex does to modernize certain weapons, I think that in any case it increases their power and potential. After all, the guys there are far from being fools.

[hartlend]

So the time has come for guided missiles for Tornado.

[dchegrinec]

It was necessary to do so for a long time! To let out a flock of iron to the accuracy of a meter! The truth will be a significant rise in price and will additionally have to be provided.

It hasn’t worked out for a long time. It's all about the progress of the hardware base and minimization of size.

[dchegrinec]

guided missiles have long existed, which are ten times smaller in size, for example, on the Coalition-SV or Armat tank.

Well, they compared a projectile guided by a laser on direct visibility and horizontal homing ammunition, and it can be said that Smerch has long had guided projectiles referring to the presence of anti-tank homing sub elements. Or what they are called there.

Belarusians did it before. As I understand it, their Polonaise is the same as Tornado and Tornado with guided missiles, plus an increased range.

[alecsis69]

Belarusians have not seen anyone in their work yet. And they are tested in China, which is symptomatic.

[Alekseev]

Tornado missiles can now use self-aiming combat elements.
Most likely, the main difference between Tornado-S and its "father", the old Tornado, is precisely the use of guided munitions, because with a firing range of up to 200 km, firing with unguided missiles loses its meaning. And, most likely, guided munitions are already in service.
However, the old ammunition for the Tornado-S is also suitable ..

[alecsis69]

In addition to new missiles flying further and control systems, there is also a positioning system in place and in the horizon.

[bannik]

Most likely ALREADY, but have not been applied yet. Turning over a little old joke: - Let them toss and turn now!

Yeah, back in the Great Patriotic War, on the "Katyusha". I wonder why they didn't?

[bannik]

dchegrinec was not born then, otherwise it would be, yes, easily!

[NordUral]

Good deal! From firing at squares to pinpoint strikes. The effect will be multiple.

Powerful thing, I wonder if the power of the lesion increases?

[samara-58]

This is good: you want a hectare, you want a meter !!!

[Lord_Sita]

So it was like infa that guided ammunition for these systems are already in service?

[2s1122]

It is in China that developments are being carried out jointly with Belarus (like), while in Russia, developments are underway to deliver a MLRS drone for correcting driving.

[sa-ag]

Well, this decision has been asking for a long time, it is surprising that it has not been implemented before.

[APASUS]

Once again, we return to the production of our elemental base, the development of electronic systems and technologies. Until then, we would at least learn the opportunity from China.

[pan.70]

Well and rightly, the armament of Russia should be improved, because in the modern world we have not so few enemies - let them fear us and respect us.

[Mountain shooter]

To everyone who is worried about the Russian element base. I assure you that all self-guided and controlled NOT ON CHINESE ICs are going to. Factories work, equipment is purchased and plowed, technologies are and are being improved. A CIRCUIT IS NOT PRODUCED, that is, that is.
And the fact that with such a range and power, the "Tornado" simply had to have a point of impact correction - this was obvious. Well, everything takes time. Now they will bring integrated inertial guidance systems, reduce their cost to the cost of a cheap cellular one, and our shells will fly even with internal correction.

There can’t even be questions, but the price of such electronics should be prohibitive. It is mass production that can lower the price, and we have all the energy, machine tools (or rather its remnants) all on Western circuits. Okay, you can buy a TV in China, but all power systems are completely stuffed with equipment and software from the same siemens, they can turn off the light for us and without war in the whole country and very simply!

But this is in vain. This is additional money that you can spend on new projects. Although there is one caveat, consumer goods need to be produced on a household element base, on an industrial one it will be too expensive.

[Anchonsha]

On the whole, now the United States is already moving to high-precision weapons with which they associate its global strike against Russia, which we need to understand for a long time. I think that the future is not bright for anyone, including the United States. Only God forbid Russia to quickly get out of poverty, become self-sufficient in all respects, work out the banking system in normal lending to the economy and everything will fall into place.

[shelva]

This is good, otherwise "from a cannon to the sparrows" - somehow not modern.

[kirpich]

Well, if they said that they would be developed, then they probably already have it. Secrecy ... there's nothing to be done.

[chunga-changa]

Managed, or adjusted? The difference is big, the journalist as usual writes what horrible?

[Hey]

I would have preferred a different approach to controlling the Smerch missiles.
The Tornado's battery fires a salvo and fires missiles (if necessary) in the main phase of the flight, simply giving some direction, then transfers control to the unit in which they are involved in combat support. The same ones, at the final stage of the Tornado's flight, having taken control of them, direct them exactly to the target. For example, in automatic mode, aiming the marker at the target, on the tablet. Division - battalion, sabotage group. You can use a specialized unmanned aerial vehicle.
In what I see the advantage of this approach. No need for precise aiming for the calculation of the Tornado battery, taking into account weather factors, only the direction, disappears. More accurate use for dynamic (moving) targets. At the last moment, you can change the target of the strike, due to the changed situation, which in a fleeting battle can change during the flight time of the missiles.

[Mountain shooter]

The modern scheme of using "Tornadoes" suggests the following. A drone is thrown into the target area with the first missile. The target is reconnoitered, an accurate topographic reference is made, the contours of the target are determined. Then, with an accurate reference, a massive raid, inspection of the results, if they still move, repeat.

[voyaka uh]

Technically, this can be done.
But then with a rocket (after the UAV is released in the air)
something needs to be done. Self-destruct in the air?
But here's the catch: the factor of surprise disappears.
The enemy will sooner or later realize that such
explosion in the air (or on the ground) of non-casualness.
And he will begin to dump out of a dangerous place ...
UAVs are hardly noticeable and it is a pity to lose this advantage.

[Gunther]

That's right, guided missiles in conjunction with a rocket for an MLRS carrying an unmanned aerial vehicle, and all this is controlled by a network system - an unmanned aerial vehicle transmits operational information to a command center - a MLRS strike and other means of destruction are delivered.
By the way, there was an article on this topic in VO.
"Russia and China are creating a 300-millimeter projectile for multiple launch rocket systems, capable of throwing reconnaissance drones at 90 kilometers. This technology will allow you to quickly conduct aerial reconnaissance of targets: upon arrival, the device flies for 30 minutes and transmits information. The development has no analogues."

This is obtained if necessary, the mattress covers can be fried at any point in the labyrinth.
At a distance of 200 km. for any correction will be needed. To reduce the cost of such a volley, a correction system can only be equipped with a missile - a leader, and the rest will follow it. At the final stage of the flight, at the command of the leader, the missiles line up in any of the geometric figures, depending on the object being hit. Oh gizmo will be good especially for the Kaliningrad and Pskov regions.

And to follow the leader, and to line up in geometric shapes does not need a correction system?
