The reactive artillery units and motorized rifle units of the ZVO will receive more than 40 units of the MLRS "Tornado-S" and "Tornado-G" units, reports press office Western District.

40 units of MLRS Tornado units will be supplied to ZVO


“The unique long-range 300-mm MLRS" Tornado-S "allows you to fire at a distance of up to 120 km and cover an area larger than 60 ha. The complex is capable of firing both single missiles and a full volley of 12 guides, ”the release says.

It is reported that "a key feature of the MLRS Tornado-S" is a new automated guidance and fire control system, which allows you to simultaneously control the division's shooting, as well as automatically calculate target data, direct packages of combat vehicle guides in horizontal and vertical planes. "

The press service noted that "the use of the new system will significantly increase the accuracy of firing and shorten the deployment time of the complex from the traveling to the combat position."

"These complexes will replace the MLRS Smerch and Grad, which will significantly increase the combat capabilities of the units," the district said.

According to the developers (NPO Splav), “these systems are 15 times more efficient than the world-famous Grad complex”.

      - Why is only something suitable going to the ZVO ... are we afraid of the Balts? My opinion is that a powerful grouping should be kept in the BBO. China, for a second, has the largest army in the world. And he is never friendly to us. He is neutral.

        Surprisingly, the article does not indicate that
        "Tornado-G" is a 122-mm modernized "Grad", and
        "Tornado-S" is a 300mm modernized "Smerch".
        Moreover, the modernization mainly affected the ammunition itself, first for export, then for itself. According to "Smerch" in 2012, a passport and an advertising passport for an extended-range missile 9m542, developed for a foreign customer, were approved. The minimum range is 40 km, the maximum range is 120 km. Length 7600 mm, total weight 820 kg, warhead weight 150 kg, explosive weight 70 kg, loaded with 500 pieces of ready-made fragments weighing 50 g.
        Ammunition nomenclature is very wide.
        For Grad - 9K51M "Tornado-G" - further development of the system: an upgraded combat vehicle 2B17-1 / 2B17M, new NURS with a maximum firing range increased to 40 km (although the same range was indicated on the BM-21).
        According to the "Minsk agreements", both systems were indicated; they have already passed combat use.

        The fact of the matter is that China is neutral. But the NATO bloc (where, for a second, the Balts enter) cannot be called neutral - at least an unfriendly organization. In addition, if the Chinese really unleash a war against the Russian Federation, then there at least rock the boat, at least do not rock the rocket - you cannot stop such a large aggressor with conventional weapons. Only nuclear weapons will help.

        I completely agree about the BBO. One Daman conflict should be a lifelong lesson to us. Recently, yes, the West Military District seems to be rearming more intensively than the others, I think the reason is the strengthening of the NATO grouping in the Baltic States. Most likely this is our "answer".

      In this article, they "modestly" kept silent about another advantage of the upgraded RS30 ("Tornado)" from the original PC30 9k58 ("Tornado"). The fact is that the automation of the firing of this device reaches such a level that the installation can leave the position even before the SHELL WILL REACH THE GOAL !!! This will be MOBILITY!

      As far as I know, such a system seems to have already been created. A single-shot projectile is fired with a fire monitoring and adjustment system and, according to its data, a salvo is fired. The projectile has a short lifetime. Where I read it, I don’t remember, but it was delayed in my memory.
