About the most expected novelties of the forum – in the material REN TV.
Cruise missile X-69
The new multifunctional low-profile high-precision aviation cruise missile X-69 will be able to be used by all Russian promising multi-role fighters, including Su-57, Su-75 (Checkmate), Su-35, MiG-35 and others equipped with avionics (avionics). ).
According to the Tactical Missiles Corporation, the X-69 missile is equipped with a navigation and automatic control system based on a strapdown inertial system with navigation equipment for the consumer of information from commercial channels of satellite navigation systems GLONASS and GPS NAVSTAR, as well as with a complex radio engineering height and speed meter, optical-electronic system, which allowed to significantly expand the range of tasks to be solved.
X-69 can be used to destroy communications facilities, railway stations and nodes, stationary ground ammunition and fuel depots, ground command posts and communication centers, aviation equipment at open parking lots of airfields, oil refineries and petrochemical plants, energy, as well as marine targets in places basing.
Aircraft MiG-31I
The MiG-31I aircraft and several unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) will be presented at the Army-2022 international forum. About this in an interview with the newspaper “a red star“said Lieutenant General Sergei Dronov, Commander of the Air Force – Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Aerospace Forces (VKS) of the Russian Federation.
“Three types of training aviation aircraft will be demonstrated at the static exposition: Yak-130, Da-42T, L-410 UVP-E20; the largest type of tactical aviation aircraft is 10 models (Su-24M, Su-25SM3, Su-35S , Su-30SM, Su-34, Su-57, MiG-29SMT, MiG-31BM, MiG-31I, MiG-35S)”– he said.
The Air Force Commander added that Tu-160, Tu-95MS and Tu-22M3 aircraft will also be seen at the forum; military transport and transport aircraft Il-76MD-90A, An-72 and An-2. Special aviation will be represented by the Il-78M tanker aircraft.
In addition, eight types of helicopters will be demonstrated: Mi-8AMTSh, Mi-8AMTSh-VA, Mi-8AMTSh-VN, Mi-26, Mi-28UB, Mi-35, Ka-52 and Ansat-U. Russian Helicopters will present the Ka-52K deck-based reconnaissance and attack helicopter. UAVs and mock-ups of Inohodets-BLA and Inohodets-BLA-S drones produced by JSC Kronstadt will also be exhibited in the static exposition.
According to Dronov, Tu-160, Tu-95MS and Tu-22M3 aircraft will fly over the Kubinka airfield on the opening day of the forum in honor of the centenary of the Tupolev Design Bureau.
Self-propelled gun SPTP 2S25M
Kurganmashzavod (KMZ, part of the High-Precision Systems holding) will present for the first time at the international forum Army-2022 a self-propelled anti-tank gun (SPTP) 2S25M in a new configuration with improved protection and an optical-electronic suppression system. This was announced to TASS by the executive director of the enterprise Petr Tyukov.
“The upgraded 125-mm self-propelled anti-tank gun 2S25 will be seen by forum participants and guests in a new configuration. An additional additional protection kit will be installed on the SPTP, which increases resistance to ammunition damage. At the same time, the vehicle will maintain buoyancy and stability on water at the same level. One more feature of SPTP 2S25M is a complex of optoelectronic suppression, which guarantees protection against approaching missiles or laser irradiation”– he said.
The machine is also equipped with video cameras to reduce driver fatigue. They provide a circular video review when the car is moving, including in reverse.
Robotic BMP-3 with a combat module “Sinitsa”
Another novelty of the forum is a combat robot based on the BMP-3 with the Sinitsa combat module, jointly developed by Kurganmashzavod and the All-Russian Research Institute Signal. The machine operates without a crew – the functions of the driver and gunner in it are robotic.
The features of the machine allow it to be used in the most dangerous areas. For example, a robotic complex can fight in complex urban areas or lead a military column. The vehicle can also be used for fire support of motorized rifle units.
As told in the All-Russian Research Institute “Signal”, robotization is carried out by installing electric drives on the controls used by a person. Thus, armored vehicles become optionally manned and can be used in a fully unmanned version.
The unmanned BMP-3 has a modern and efficient weapon system: a 30mm automatic cannon, a 7.62mm machine gun and a 100mm cannon, which can also be used as an ATGM launcher.
“The Sinitsa combat module “sees” the terrain 360 degrees at any time of the day. It is equipped with a loading mechanism for anti-tank guided missiles and an automated digital fire control system. The combat vehicle can be controlled remotely – using a portable remote control or a remote control point”– said RIA News Vladimir Artyakov, First Deputy Director of the Rostec Corporation.
High Speed Drone Radios
The Roselectronics holding of the Rostec state corporation has created small-sized radio modems for civilian drones, robotic systems and aviation. They provide high-speed, noise-free radio communication over a distance of up to 300 kilometers and can transmit video in up to 4K format in real time.
Broadband radio modems allow you to organize a reliable radio channel between mobile and stationary objects for control and information exchange. Thanks to this, operators can receive large amounts of data in real time, as well as high-resolution video from UAV surveillance equipment and robotic complexes.
“The new radio modems can operate in the range from 50 MHz to 12 GHz and are characterized by increased noise immunity. Their weight does not exceed 400 grams. Due to this, the devices can be used in drones and robotic devices with a high-speed data transmission channel, for example, for telemetry of oil and gas facilities, transmission of information from various sensors to control rooms, during topographic surveys or during search and rescue operations”– said Oleg Yevtushenko, executive director of Rostec.
The equipment has the function of cognitive radio and uses the method of pseudo-random frequency hopping (PRFC). This allows devices to select the optimal frequencies for operation and avoid interference.
Checkmate Fighter Communications System
Ruselectronics will also present at the forum the latest communications equipment for aviation, including the latest communications equipment for the Checkmate fifth-generation light tactical fighter and the NKVS-27 ground-based aerial communications system.
A line of telecommunications and communication equipment is also presented at the Roselectronics stand: routers with protection against hacker attacks, DMR radio stations for organizing professional radio communications, and the Groza digital tropospheric station.
Artillery control complex “Planshet-M-IR”
“Tablet-M-IR” is an initiative development of “High-precision complexes” for automating the management of MLRS crews, artillery and mortar units. It was created as a more modern continuation of the Tablet-A complex, which is already being mass-produced. Preliminary tests of the complex will be held before the end of the year.
“Tablet-M-IR” has become more mobile – the specialists of “Signal” placed it in a new armored car “Athlet” developed by the company “VPK”. At the same time, you can manage the new “Tablet” both while being in the car and outside it.
The complex can interact with all drones in service with the Russian Armed Forces. A tandem with a drone in an automated mode allows the commander to see what is happening on the battlefield in real time and adjust the fire. Closed satellite communication provides contact with the higher command and the safety of information.
“Tablet-M-IR” has significantly expanded the range of associated technical means. It can quickly exchange information, including with reconnaissance radars. The purpose of such systems is to exclude the human factor from the processes of obtaining target designation and carrying out calculations before hitting the target, this speeds up the work of units and increases the accuracy of the strike.
Tanks “Uralvagonzavod”
Uralvagonzavod will present at the forum the T-14 tanks on the Armata platform, the T-90MS and the BMPT-72 tank support combat vehicle.
Tank T-14 on the platform “Armata” – a new development of the Ural Design Bureau of Transport Engineering. The vehicle uses unprecedented design solutions, in particular, the T-14 turret is uninhabited, and the crew is placed in an armored capsule, separated from the ammunition load. In addition, the tank is equipped with a remotely controlled weapon station with a powerful cannon and an automatic reloading system, and optoelectronic devices for monitoring, aiming and detecting threats are installed around the perimeter of the turret and hull.
Another development of UVZ at the forum will be the T-90MS tank – a modernized vehicle of the T-90 family, in which the turret, power and transmission units and chassis have been completely replaced, and the level of armor resistance has been increased.
Marine complexes of the future
The United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC) will present at the forum promising multifunctional marine complexes based on a single unified platform.
For the first time in the USC demonstration center in the “Diversification” zone, the forum will exhibit: a hydrofoil catamaran HSC 150V (vessels are being built at the Vympel shipyard), promising multifunctional marine complexes based on a single unified platform (designer – Nevskoye Design Bureau), a passenger cruise ship project PV300 (the vessel was built at the Krasnoye Sormovo shipyard.
Earlier, the media wrote about the development in the Nevsky Design Bureau of the Varan universal marine complex project, which is based on a unified multifunctional platform, on the basis of which it is proposed to create several types of warships: an aircraft carrier, a universal landing ship, a transport and hospital ship or a support ship for the Arctic.
