Arbalet-DM combat modules will be equipped with Typhoon armored vehicles

Director of the companyWeapons workshops "Dmitry Galkin said RIA News that armored cars of the Typhoon family as weapons will receive a combat module with remote control (BMDU) "Arbalet-DM". It was in the “Armory workshops” that this combat module was created. According to Dmitry Galkin, the main defense department of the country expressed interest in the BMDU "Arbalet-DM" in relation to the "Typhoon" to increase the combat equipment of these armored vehicles.

In addition to the possibility of installing the Arbalet-DM module, we are also talking about equipping a BMDU of such equipment as the MT-LB multi-purpose tractor, which has long been recognized as one of the most popular army armored vehicles.

RIA News quotes Dmitry Galkin:

At the moment, our company is fulfilling its obligations under a state contract with the Ministry of Defense, which involves the delivery of the first batch of Tigr-M armored vehicles with the Arbalet-DM military vehicle to the troops this year. "Arbalet-DM" "demonstrated high performance, including the ability to work in the temperature range from - 40 ° C to + 50 ° C, which makes it possible to use it effectively in any climatic zone of our country, as well as outside.

For reference: The Arbalet-DM BMDU consists of a Kord machine gun with 150 ammunition for 12,7 mm caliber cartridges or a PKTM machine gun (250 7,62 mm cartridges). The developer notes that the stationary version of this combat module may have virtually unlimited ammunition. The module is able to "capture" and accompany the target until the attack on this target. At a distance of up to 2500, the module can determine the target in the form of an armored troop-carrier with the help of a special television camera, and at a distance of up to 1500 m there is the possibility of operating a thermal imaging camera. Aiming is done with a laser.

Correct solution.

Such modules would be on the line of contact in the Donbass. Test on punishers in combat.

You, I hope you understand that the phrase "unlimited ammunition" is conditional. And that any ammunition has both weight and volume. Not to mention the methods of automatic feeding, as well as the barrel resource under different operating modes ... in a computer toy.
With a thermal imager, a TV camera, a system for capturing and holding a target ... most likely not cheap equipment. I am more interested in the reviews directly "rolling in" the product ...

[Dezinto]

I would use such a module on a machine ....

In traffic jams already at home. I sometimes want to ...

The fuse is removed! tape is connected. Aim? In the viewfinder there is a car with a "U" sign, two taxi drivers, and a minibus - all at the same time - they are blunt or bullied

aaaagon!

I recall Zhvanetsky: to go to the market and bargain, how much, how much? A bunch or a little thing?

- Then minibuses with a hatch in the roof will be screwed with a DShK ... And behind the DShK - a horse, the second number.

[avva2012]

Here, something was remembered.

[SAM 5]

Permission to wear will not be given, unless the modification is a traumatic.

We are pleased with the modern principles of development of Russian military equipment: efficiency, versatility, and most importantly - the security of personnel.

From the hatch sticks up to the waist, behind the installation. Probably protected by most do not indulge? Less for what? You did not see Sergeant Orekhov's helmet for an hour, but I saw a bunch of holes from Chinese bullets. BTR 60P, installing a machine gun about the same. Remote-controlled module is the right solution.

[Manitoo]

Minuses were given to you, because you read inattentively, it says "module with remote control". The photo is just not very good.

[gergi]

I love these toys. 12'7 is relic.

Oh, how they all interfere with your life! especially probably minibus passengers? Welcome to the basics
VERY FUNNY?

One cord is not enough, if paired trunks, then where didn’t go and RPG or mortar would also be useful.

[Ugrumiy]

I wonder why no one wants to put an automatic grenade launcher on a machine gun in this module? After all, then the firepower will increase significantly, the module will become more universal and the tactical capabilities of the machine armed with such a module will expand.

Why - there is such an opportunity, and if they do not talk about it, then this does not mean that they will not do it in the future.

What power are we talking about? You want to stick everything in the middle of the battle and attack the tanks in the middle of the battle, it’s armed enough for your tasks, the main task of the fighters is to get to the place, pick up after the task is completed and cover with fire from the guys armed with AK.

[Ugrumiy]

Where did you see the attack on tanks in my post !? Do not write nonsense, I did not say that the module is not sufficiently armed, but with a grenade launcher its capabilities will expand. It will be possible to more effectively suppress enemy firing points (machine guns, ATGMs, snipers, etc.), it will be possible to put more effective barrage fire, and the distance of effective fire and its varieties will increase. In my opinion, for example, when shelling a column somewhere in the mountains, putting barrage from a machine gun and supplementing it with a burst from a grenade launcher will be much more effective than just a machine gun.

[Corsair0304]

the remote module is certainly very good. Hanging waist-deep behind a turret is a thing of the past. That is why, to protect such a shooter, the Americans arrange a "crow's nest for the shooter on their Hummers."
Let's not be like a bad example ... We are smarter))

[Izotovp]

Why didn’t they put on this machine gun a more effective jet muzzle brake? There is no arrow, there is no one to stun, and the return on the machine to decrease, the efficiency and accuracy will increase.

[Zomanus]

and such a module can be installed not only in Typhoon. I think that it will go to matalyga.
You need to understand that such a module is rather a weapon of self-defense.
Say in the same supply column or other non-combat unit.
It is not necessary to attack him.

This product would have been modern 30 years ago))) Tepluha, as an option. On an armored car (!). Despite the fact that in decent countries they are already included in the standard kit for shooting.
