A new anti-aircraft artillery system is being developed in the Russian Federation, which will replace the Tunguska and Shilka complexes, reports RIA News message from the head of the air defense forces Alexander Leonov.

"Tunguska" and "Shilka" will be replaced by a new anti-aircraft complex

Anti-aircraft complex "Tunguska"


“To replace our Tunguska and Shilka complexes, a new promising anti-aircraft artillery system in 57 mm caliber is being developed,” Leonov said, without specifying either the development timeline or the name of the new weapons.

Help Agency: "Shilka" is a Soviet self-propelled anti-aircraft gun armed with a quadruple automatic 23-mm cannon, which is designed to directly cover ground troops, destroy air targets at ranges up to 2,5 thousand meters and altitudes up to 1,5 thousand meters, flying at speeds up to 450 meters per second.

Anti-aircraft missile and gun complex "Tunguska" provides detection, identification, tracking and destruction of various types of air targets (helicopters, tactical aircraft aviation, cruise missiles, drones), as well as the destruction of surface and ground targets.

    Maybe it’s still better to upgrade TUNGUSKA to an Apache range of 10 km ... it’s cheaper than building a new installation ... there’s not much money in the budget for a new development.

    Amazing news of the day...

      But 57 mm is better than 23 mm. bully Yes, let the designers design - that's why they are designers. Maybe it's true, someday such an installation will go into series.

          This 57mm caliber was already used on the ZSU 2-57 1955-1960, but the sighting systems of that time could not de-energize the acceptable aiming accuracy, and the rate of fire 100-120 high. in min. was insufficient to ensure the density of fire for an acceptable probability of destruction (with existing aiming systems), therefore "the shilka with its 4000 rounds per minute had better efficiency.
          Today's SLAs are able to eliminate the aforementioned drawback, and therefore the high rate of fire has lost its relevance, and the power of 57mm is an order of magnitude higher .... request as that.

            I will add that the upgraded PT-76 was equipped with a 57-mm machine gun and now the BMP-3m has one of the modifications with the same caliber. The increase in caliber and range is a consequence of the need to combat air and ground targets, because. the development of the latter also does not stand still. It's a pattern

            I will add that 57mm already easily penetrates lightly armored targets, as well as
            has a wider radius and height of the lesion. With UAVs, this is just important.

              Actually, if you think about it, you might not be surprised ..... Drones "in most cases, are small targets, and the 30-mm Shell" shells "as I assume, had only a remote self-destruction installation ... And "guessing" the triggering of a self-liquidator of a 30-mm projectile next to the target is a problem. I suppose that the main dream of the "shooters" from 30-mm anti-aircraft guns is to hit the projectile "right on target"! And getting "directly on the forehead" into a small-sized drone is a problem ! It is technically possible to "equip" a 30-mm projectile with a non-contact fuse, but it is not economically feasible (very expensive!); And the practical efficiency cannot be compared with a 40-45 (mm) "non-contact" projectile. I assume that small-caliber shells with "instantly" programmable fuses - "timers" would be "useful" to fight drones, given that drones fly at a constant height and at a constant speed for a significant part of the time. For this, anti-aircraft artillery installations must be equipped with systems fire control (FCS) with a laser rangefinder, a computer-programmer, an actuator (for example, on the barrel)

            The article was slightly alarming that they were talking about the new ZAK, and not ... ZRAK.
            57mm is certainly not bad, but without rockets - nothing, only work in tandem with Thor. However, it will not be easy to cram 57mm ammunition, missiles and radar into one car ...

                "Petrel" has been worn with her for 40 years - but no one takes her. The Navy does not need it, since the same Burevestnik has a heavier, but more powerful AK-176.
                And the army team did not need a 57-mm caliber either. For an infantry fighting vehicle, it is too big (either a normal ammunition for a cannon - or a landing force, plus recoil). For an ZSU, it has a low rate of fire and still an insufficient effective range: it was believed that the zone of possible ATGM launches from helicopters could be completely blocked only with the help of combined anti-aircraft missile and artillery vehicles, such as the Tunguska.

            When the Americans "distinguished themselves" in Vietnam with "anti-tank" helicopters, the topic: "how to effectively deal with fire support helicopters" became one of the "first" As a result of experiments, it turned out that one of the most effective means of fighting helicopters turned out to be medium (and more) calibers. Therefore, in NATO, the Italians developed (and, in my opinion, even adopted) an anti-helicopter self-propelled gun mount of 76-mm caliber ("Otto Mat"?); And in the USSR they seriously proposed to modernize and keep in service 57 -mm S-60 and ZSU-57-2 guns .... and even use upgraded 100-mm anti-aircraft guns. (But in the latter case, the main obstacle is poor mobility). "Everything flows, everything changes" and at present the effectiveness of "medium-caliber anti-aircraft guns" may be "in question" - "one thing" - the fight against helicopters equipped with ATGMs with a "range" of 4-6 km; and another "difference" - helicopter ATGMs with a "range" of 12-14 km (and in the near future, and more ...)

          the effectiveness of an anti-aircraft (fragmentation) projectile 57mm is 10 times higher compared to 30mm, in addition, in a caliber of 57 mm it is possible to create a guided anti-aircraft projectile and work on this topic has already been carried out as part of the ZAK-57 Derivation of Air Defense. Another point is the effective firing range, even with a programmable detonation projectile for 57mm it will be 6-8 km for a helicopter-type target and 3-5km for an UAV, which is an unattainable range for 30mm. Missiles for combating UAVs are a very costly option, and 30 mm does not provide the necessary range and the ability to create a control system of acceptable cost and reliability.

          Caliber 57 mm will not save the situation. since modern drones can climb to a height of about 16-18 km. Here, only missiles, and a small quadrocopter with an attached iGo camera can also be visually shot down from a wearable automatic weapon. It's just that a 57 mm projectile can be made fragmentation (perhaps even with a remote fuse), which will dramatically increase combat effectiveness when used against low-flying cruise missiles and aircraft at altitudes of 3-5 km.

            There is a "small" contradiction in your reasoning - those drones that are capable of climbing to a height of 16-18 km are not at all small. For example, a traitor with a ceiling of 7900m has a wingspan of 14.8m, and a small quadcopter with an attached iGo camera, even if it miraculously reaches a height of at least 6 km, will be basically useless because the weight of the hardware will be small. RQ-4 capable of climbing 20 km is not even a target for Buk, but for S-300 and 400, but we are discussing a self-propelled ZAK for direct cover of troops. Experts recognized the 57mm caliber as more effective than small-caliber systems, including for combating small-sized UAVs. It really seems to me that in order to combat such targets as a quadrocopter (essentially just flying cameras), electronic warfare and lasers will be more effective, since the composition of the equipment on them is minimal and it is difficult to protect it from such an impact.

        57mm is certainly good, but the rate of fire will be significantly reduced, at times. And if you look more closely, then anti-aircraft artillery has long become obsolete. I personally don’t even understand why they put it on new complexes. The famous Zushka is used almost exclusively for ground targets.

          The famous Zushka is used almost exclusively for ground targets.

          What is the point of comparing warm with soft? An automated complex and a gun mount with manual guidance? ZU-23-2 is even compared to Shilka like a slingshot compared to a pistol. The Tunguska is definitely hardly better than the Pantsir in terms of the guidance system, and there are claims against the Pantsir precisely in terms of combating UAVs. Missiles do not always have enough sensitivity, and they are expensive compared to corrected projectiles, and the range of 30mm guns has a limit of 2 km. The 57mm rate of fire is not that important due to the huge difference in power. The difference between 57 and 30 mm in the striking effect is not twice as it seems at first glance, but eight to ten times, plus a guided projectile.
          ZUShka is used against ground targets in view of the fact that it mainly participates in low-intensity conflicts or on the side of a deliberately weaker enemy, whose air defense was suppressed by all the power of the shitocracy. In general, the ZU-23-2 even has Tomogawks (in Iraq). In Afghanistan and Chechnya, the ZUShki positions were suppressed in the first place and caused a lot of problems for our helicopters and SUShki.

        But 57 mm is better than 23 mm.
        Is 12,7mm better than 7,62mm? If we are talking about an addition, this is one thing, but the motivation that the Tunguska has exhausted itself with 30 mm guns is somehow not very good, especially since it also has missiles.

        Yes, let the designers design - that's why they are designers.
        Designers should have competent customers, and it’s good if they are military, and not “menagers”, who only want to cut loot and master new means. Somewhere on the battlefield, the Tunguska does not yet see a reasonable replacement, especially if, in terms of size with 57 mm guns and missiles, it’s not even a van on the Kamaz, like the Pantsir, but something with a chassis, like at Topol. Let them think that everything is fine, that is not to the detriment of Russia's defense capability.

                Right. It just needs to be clarified that attack helicopters have missile weapons, the range of which is much greater than ZSU. And if the ZRAK type "Tunguska" or "Shell" has a chance to destroy it, then "Shilka" has no chance.

        They make a universal fire support vehicle. It is the anti-aircraft artillery complex (without missiles) (without missiles on this platform, the missiles will be on another machine)
        Tunguska and Pantsir are not satisfied with the effectiveness of the fight against UAVs. They will be clouds. The range of a 30mm projectile is not that great, and the rocket is too expensive.
        The new 57mm shells will have an airburst, so there is no need for a rate of fire. You can shoot at enemy infantry in the trenches, in the mountains, in the city; for light armored vehicles.

I am sure that even in 20 years, when fully robotic, uninhabited tanks, air defense systems and so on appear, they will provide (just in case) "manual" control.

      Twin 57 mm anti-aircraft gun with S-60 ballistics. Well, with missiles, such as from the "Shell". It will be a very serious monster. Which is typical, both in the air and on the ground. What will a line of such "shells" do, even if it hits a tank. This is practically an anti-tank ZIS-2, which did an excellent job with the "Tigers" during the Second World War. Yes, with computer guidance, yes, a machine gun, and with two barrels. Shells with a radio fuse, as on anti-aircraft missiles. And even with a passive seeker, when the target is illuminated from the installation. And in general, you can think of a lot of things, having a pair of automatic guns with such ballistics.

            Nope, I didn't. And for some, it would not hurt to learn some history, learn more materiel, and, well, reduce ambition: in the 57mm shot for the ZIS-2, a cartridge case from a 76-millimeter divisional cannon was used with recompression of the muzzle of the cartridge case from 76 to 57 millimeters. It had an armor-piercing projectile weighing 3,14 kg and more than half a meter long.


            A 57mm anti-aircraft gun is an independent caliber using a 57 × 348 mm SR projectile

              But the caliber of the gun remained 57 !!!! mm But for example, it didn’t become 76.2 mm, I’m talking to you about this !!! And then who does not know the materiel? You confuse CALIBER with SHOT, and the caliber is the same here and there - 57mm, so I can advise you the same thing - less ambition wink hi

      Shilka in Syria performed well outside of the profile, as an excellent anti-sniper and anti-ATR. A sort of cheap analogue of the BMPT Terminator. She would have new optics, and a newer sighting system, in my opinion, it would turn out to be quite a good and cheap version of the BMPT.

                firstly, almost all NATO tanks will not be able to withstand even a short burst of shilka into the side until now.
                secondly, the secondary impact from the burst of shells is so great - shaking, noise, fragments inside, etc., that the tank may not be destroyed, but for some time it will simply lose the ability to fight
                finally, the third - a dense burst will literally destroy EVERYTHING that is nailed by a 20mm projectile, i.e. the tank will be left without optics, active armor, headlights, night vision devices, etc. Most likely, the undercarriage will also be damaged, and the turret may jam.

      Shilka lost its relevance at the dawn of its appearance, since there is no way to fight jet aircraft with a firing range of less than 4 km. Even old helicopter ATGMs have a minimum range of 6 km. As I understand it, ours do not just want to replace the Tunguskas, but they will create a complex + new shells, and they will also be used not on ships. By the way, there were excellent articles about modern 57 mm anti-aircraft systems in the Navy like Italy.

    "To replace our Tunguska and Shilka complexes, a new promising anti-aircraft artillery system in 57 mm caliber is being developed," Leonov said, without specifying either the development timeline or the name of the new weapon.

    Anti-aircraft artillery complex
    , that is, non-aircraft missile and artillery system, I understood correctly, or did the "translator" :) make a mistake?

    The targets of the 57-mm caliber are not clear: cruise missiles, lightly armored vehicles, aircraft, helicopters, light shelters, what else? It is clear that somewhere it will be much more effective, but in other cases the opposite is true.
    The rate of fire drops by an order of magnitude, accuracy is a big question.
    Either these should be adjustable shells or very high accuracy is needed. The firing range, as well as the height of the defeat, of course, increases, but at what minimum heights will the detection and guidance means of this system work?

      Of course, the process is moving forward and science is developing. That is precisely why in modern technology it is not the caliber that is more important, but the speed of detection and the accuracy of the hit. Everything is clear with "Shilka", she has served her life as an air defense. It is clear that the "Tunguska" and "Shell" can and should be modernized.

          in fact, the Italian "Otomatic" in 76mm caliber already had an adjustable shell. And they claimed that they could repeat the technology up to 35mm caliber - however, with miniaturization, the cost increased by orders of magnitude, and therefore they chose such a rather large caliber.
          But this is the technological level of the 80s!
          Now, with a modern microelectronic base, absolutely any whim is possible, they are already developing 12,7 guided bullets.
          So it's high time to move from an extensive to an intensive path of development of ZSU - instead of wasting hundreds of shells, cover with a short burst of 3-4 larger, but adjustable ones, and from a distance. undermining.

Question: How to get such a small-sized and low-radiating target at such a high altitude? In a number of conflicts, they hit on such targets from anything, collected all heavy machine guns, all armored personnel carriers, all Zushki and hit them so that the earth trembled. Huge density of fire, but all to no avail. Personally, I find it funny to read how some comrades write about using light machine guns against such targets.

      In order to shoot down such a baby, completely different characteristics of pointing accuracy, dispersion, and the affected area are needed. I'm not talking about detection yet.

    "Shilochka", I would hand over to the infantry, an irreplaceable thing at heights and checkpoints. A small dismantling and a "terminator" is ready, just bring boxes of ammunition. soldier

    Intuition tells you that a hefty queue will be built behind the used "Shilka" and "Tunguska". Well, for those grandmas and the new one, you can see for the future. ALREADY . In stock . Sergey Kuzhugetovich is a horror for the pintagon, the whole country will study the fifth corner, poor fellows.

    Shilka is not needed for air defense in the 21st century, forgive me the graduates of the Poltava School. but since it is praised in the infantry, let them take it for themselves. They will rename it to "machine-gun self-propelled crew", put up armor and go ahead: on manpower, equipment and fortifications.
    How to shoot down a UAV? You need to think, count and apply ingenuity. Let the KBs rack their brains. Mini rockets, electronic warfare equipment, a laser, a "Jedi sword" - everything will do.

    Historical fact.
    Even before the entry of Soviet troops into Afghanistan, the USSR Ministry of Defense decided to decommission the Shilka artillery system as obsolete. However, a small number of them at the initial stage were used against spooks as ground cover. In this capacity, the Shilka turned out to be the most effective melee weapon and performed very well. Dushmans called "Shilka" "Shaitan-arba". Based on the experience gained, a large number of these artillery systems were transferred to Afghanistan.

    yes, let there be more of both new and old modernized ones, it’s not for nothing that they say everything new is well-forgotten old, and the projectile is 57mm. it’s better to make it thermobarric with remote triggers so that it burns out completely, but if in fact, in my opinion it’s more effective to deal with small-sized flying aircraft such as drones, it’s better with laser guns, the height and speed of movement of the flying aircraft will completely allow it to be successfully hit, visually everything is like on a rifle stand, and in bad weather such doves do not fly, there are satellites for this ...

    PS By the way, there is such a "method" of aiming shells, which is very suitable for use in small-caliber ammunition. "Developers" promise that it will be "cheap and cool"! Such shells are used in "bursts". According to the "master-slave" principle ... "It is taken", for example, a series of 5 shells - one shell "begins" with the electronics of the control system (homing) and therefore does not have explosives (there is no longer any places); the remaining 4 shells have: GGE, explosives, a simple (maybe the simplest) guidance system for the "beacon" in the "leading" shell ....

      In theory, electronic warfare can, in reality, it often cannot and simply shrug. Well, let's say they drowned out ... and all modern UAVs are automated and, after losing communication, they begin to execute a given scenario, which can be a continuation of the task. Interception of control of modern UAVs is generally now something of a phenomenon for a number of reasons.

    Good news.
    I would prefer that a new chassis not be developed - take the CU chassis from the T72, of which there is a shaft.
    With such a chassis, such a memory can be used to support troops at the forefront. At the same time saving - no need to do. The safety margin of the BU t72 is sufficient, in addition, this platform has been worked out, reliable, and is known among the troops.
    You can try to use the control unit for the chassis of the first batches of the BMP-3. Protection is not as serious, but the cost of operation is much less.

    I think such an installation is not needed as a specialized ZSU! But as a multifunctional tool, as part of an infantry fighting vehicle, an infantry fighting vehicle is another matter. For use on air targets, take target designation from an air defense system or an artillery reconnaissance radar, such as "Zoo". Here you should not be limited only to medium calibers, but also apply the same principle to tanks and self-propelled guns. Of course, the possibility of such integration should be provided in the design initially or in the course of modernization. Thus, all self-propelled artillery and armored vehicles, which have the ability to automatically target, can, if necessary, be included in the fire calculation of the air defense of the SV grouping, which will significantly increase the complexity of the air attack task for the enemy.

      Target designation is, of course, good and noble ... but in order to conduct aimed fire at air targets, you also need your own sighting system with tracking radar, a set of fire control devices and powerful and accurate aiming drives. And all this weighs pretty decently + takes up the volume of the fighting compartment.

      If everything were so simple, then BMPs based on the Tunguska or Shilka would have appeared long ago. smile

        Is it not fate to change positions ?! Do air defense systems deal with a similar problem in some other way? Also, take note! Taking target designation from external means, the bulk of the SV equipment involved will not impersonate radar radiation.

        The principle outlined above will allow all modern ground combat equipment to take an active part in the defense against an air attack, and not be just a passive victim and object of protection for relatively small air defense systems.

Or, again, "they didn’t have time to build one, as right there, right away ... they didn’t have time to build both the second and third" © Or maybe he ("Shell") is not at all as good as they told us from the blue screens . The last time, as I remember now, was May 9th. As usual, unparalleled. Who knows what's going on with the Shell, and how this new 57mm projector will look like from a purely economic point of view.

      Well, actually, this is a normal practice - after adopting a model for service, think about upgrading or replacing it with a new generation. And the "Shell" is far from being a young man, and there are serious complaints about the effectiveness of art. fire.
      But that's not the trick: the announced ZSU is a possible replacement not for the Shell, but for the Tunguska, and that one has indeed been for many years.
      From a combat point of view - in the presence of adjustable projectiles, and a detonation distance - this is a definite plus, how it is there from an economic point of view - who knows, you need to ask our "effective managers" this.

    He served in 1986-1988 in the KZakVO in the military air defense at the Krug air defense system. I remember that they were preparing for live firing at the training center in Vaziani, and there I had a chance to see "Shilki" in action. Then their work impressed with its rate of fire. At the site of the shooting there were "waist-deep" shell casings. But "Tunguska" in many respects "surpassed" "Shilka". I hope that the new complex will "leave behind" the Tunguska. I am glad that due attention is being paid to military air defense! Good luck to the "defenders" and "air defense"!
