At the Army-2022 military equipment forum, a new Russian K-17 infantry fighting vehicle on the Boomerang platform was shown. The infantry fighting vehicle K-17 carried out training firing at targets from all types of weapons installed on it, except for the AG-17 grenade launcher. In particular, the fire was fired from 7.62 mm. machine gun PKTM, ATGM "Kornet" and 30-mm. automatic gun 2A42. In this version, the Berezhok combat module is installed on the BMP. The crew of the infantry fighting vehicle is three people, the vehicle is capable of carrying 8 troops. The BMP has many electronic systems that facilitate the work of the crew. Booking BMP multi-layered with ceramic content. YaMZ-780 engine, 750 hp allows you to accelerate on the highway to 100 to 100 km / h. The declared power reserve is up to 800 km.
Despite all its firepower, the Russian Terminator tank fire support fighting vehicle also uses elements of protection. We are publishing footage of the installation of an aerosol curtain of the BMPT "Terminator". For the smoke screen in the Terminator BMPT, an 81-mm 3D17 smoke grenade is used. The installation of such a curtain significantly weakens and reflects optical radiation, including laser radiation, thereby disrupting the process of targeting missiles by the enemy.
Video of the driver of the ACS 2S1 "Gvozdika" of Russia. The self-propelled guns were developed in 1971, more than 10,000 installations were produced in total. The Soviet 122-mm regimental self-propelled howitzer has been repeatedly modernized and is the world's first floating self-propelled gun.
Modernized MLRS "Cheburashka" appeared in Donetsk. MLRS "Cheburashka" was developed by Donetsk specialists in 2018. The MLRS uses non-standard caliber 217 mm ammunition, which does not match the Soviet and any other rocket systems. The ammunition itself is also produced in Donetsk. In addition to a large number of missiles, the feature of the Cheburashka MLRS is the ability to hit two targets simultaneously. Two swivel rail packs for 64 missiles are mounted on a KrAZ all-wheel drive chassis. Packages are guided and controlled from a remote control - similar to the Grad MLRS. The officially declared firing range is 10 kilometers. According to the developers, only locally produced parts are used to create the MLRS.
Video of the latest Russian radar "Niobium-SV". Radar complex 103Zh6 "Niobium-SV" is designed to detect and track all types of air targets, including UAVs and those developed using stealth technology. The radar is placed on a KamAZ wheeled chassis, there is another version of the radar with placement on a semi-trailer. Radar "Niobium-SV" is designated by codes 103Zh6 or 1L125. Radar complex 103ZH6 consists of five transport units. The data of the complex are classified, it is known that the radar can detect airborne objects with RCS = 1 m2. The target detection range with such an EPR, at a target flight altitude: 500 meters - 53 km, at an altitude of 10,000 meters - 230 km and at an altitude of 27,000 meters - 320 km. Limits of work: in range - 400 km. It should be noted that the radar data is underestimated. Station deployment time - 15 min.
The episode of the training of future soldiers of PMC Wagner. Soldiers who signed a contract with PMC Wagner, before being sent to a combat unit, undergo combat training in Tyumen at a training ground near Lake Andreevskoye.
Self-propelled guns 2S23 "Nona-SVK" appeared in Ukraine. Self-propelled guns are driven by soldiers from Tuva, and negotiations on the air are also conducted in the Tuvan language. Self-propelled gun 2S23 "Nona-SVK" was built on the wheeled chassis of the BTR-80 and entered the army in 1991. Self-propelled gun "Nona-SVK" combines the properties of a gun, howitzer and mortar and has greater mobility. In addition, a self-propelled gun costs 2 times cheaper than tracked self-propelled guns. The main armament of the 2S23 self-propelled gun is the 120-mm 2A60 gun, which also allows the use of foreign ammunition of the appropriate caliber. Ammunition self-propelled guns "Nona-SVK" 30 shots. The firing range is 9 km, when using active-reactive ammunition up to 12-17 km. Crew 4 people.
