   Kornet double tap

MINOBORONYLive_DINAMICESKII_POKAZ_VOORUZENIY_RVIA_I_VOISK_RKB_ZASITY_V_RAMKAK_MVTF_ARMIY-2020.gif

 

   From start of the video - Kornet duplet hit.

0:25, BVM, because of smoke can't see if it hit.

2:40 Kornet-D double launch, hard to tell if it was hit.

3:12 BVM from the move, GL-ATGM launch, hit.

4:35, Kornet, hit.

41:57 BMP-2 Berezhok, Kornet double tap, both hit.

43:45, same BMP-2, Kornet missed tank (looks like it flyed close to target, above it).

44:15, 4th Kornet, hit.

Way better this time.

   Ministry of Defense at the forum "Army-2020" signed contracts for 1.16 trillion rubles

   Development of armored vehicles of the Strela family

   The Russian Defense Ministry and the Military Industrial Company have signed a contract to open experimental design work to create a line of the newest Strela light armored vehicles, VPK CEO Alexander Krasovitsky told TASS.

   The state contract provides for the development of a unified multipurpose vehicle, floating, light-duty and buggy type.

   "The developed vehicles of the family are designed to ensure the daily activities of troops, transport personnel (including the wounded and sick) and military cargo, perform reconnaissance tasks, patrols, escort convoys, mount and transport weapons with the provision of specified parameters of bulletproof and mine protection, tow trailers on all types of roads and terrain within the specified carrying capacity, ”the Defense Ministry said.

 

   Also, a bit info about Strela - 2 versions have different protection rating. Ampibious have 0.6 kg of exposives mine protection, while normal have 2 kg IIRC.

Looks like BTR-82 still cant hit anything... What is the point of this stupid weapon system? Is it so hard to weld a damned guide rail to the 2A72 gun? Ukrainians already recognized this, looooong ago. And as I heard, the same weapon from the BMP-3 is also far more accurate...

   I posted some time ago a picture of BTR-82A testbed for new turret, where 2A72 was in special sleeve, IIRC there was no big improvements, so it remained as prototype. Not sure about BMP-3 accuracy with 30 mm AC.

   Some of VPK military cars:

uoCOF9f.jpg

 

   Tigr buggy.

Quote

   Under the hood of this buggy is the Yaroslavl turbodiesel YaMZ-534, overclocked to 240 hp. The gearbox is a six-speed automatic, Chinese manufacturer Fast Gear. The suspension of all wheels is independent, the maximum speed is 120 km/h, and the max range is up to a thousand kilometers.

   The company does not hide the fact that, although the machine was developed on an initiative basis, the experience of the latest operations in Syria was taken into account during its construction. So, the crew of five is accommodated in anti-traumatic seats and is not weakly armed. Above is a 12.7-mm 6P58 Kord machine gun, and 7.62-mm Pecheneg machine guns are fixed in special retractable clamps on the sides. Also, in a combat kit, RPG-26 and Igla-S MANPADS are fixed in special places. In addition, an emergency supply of fuel and medicines is provided on board.

   It is assumed that such a Tiger will be able to play the role of a high-speed reconnaissance and assault vehicle, capable of making deep sorties behind enemy lines.

   Strela (Arrow), amphibious variant

b0qCxR6.jpg

 

Quote

... 

   As we said above, this frog-like machine is built on the basis of the recently introduced Strela light armored car, which, in turn, is based on GAZ units.

   For example, the engine here is familiar to "gazelists", Next Cummins ISF. The gearbox is a GAZ own five speed. The bottom is flat and sealed, with a propeller in the rear. But here the rear axle is located outside - it will "swim". The total mass of this amphibian is 4.9 tons, and the carrying capacity is 800 kg.

 

   Having opened the heavy front door of the amphibian, I was not at all surprised by the front panel from the Next Gazelle installed inside. Everything here is familiar: the gearshift lever on the podium and the large multimedia system with a touch screen are preserved. Only on the exhibition model all this was covered with light leather.

   By the way, it is possible to get into the salon, in this version, designed for four people, either through the front doors or through a flap in the stern. The vehicle has an light armoring of the level 1 manned compartment, and can also withstand the detonation of the equivalent of 0.6 kg of TNT under the wheel or bottom.

 

   It is interesting, by the way, that the VPK is planning to expand Strela family with other modifications. For example, a buggy version similar to the big Tiger, as well as a large unarmored SUV for everyday work, a kind of analogue of large frame American all-wheel drive vehicles, is currently in development. Moreover, it is already known that the Ministry of Defense will also be directly involved in the further development of the Strela project, which means that light armored cars have interested our military and may well appear in their ranks.

 

   As for the cost of the current cars, the representatives of the VPK named a fork of 10-20 million rubles for the Tigers. Such a huge range is due to the fact that each machine is built according to the individual requirements of the customer. As for the Strelas, they will obviously be cheaper.

Team Kongo managed to stuck the T-72B3 muzzle into the ground in the biathlon.

Good recipe for barrel explosions :D They are lucky that they already finished with main gun firing range. But seriously... why do organizers let these teams compete at all? All these african teams were just miserable, pain to watch. Quite pathetic that they are supposed to be "professional" soldiers. In 2019, russian girls, who have never seen a tank from inside before, finished a training in a rush, produced incomparably better results...

Sadly I do not remember where did I read about the improved accuracy of BMP-3, it was long ago. Of course, this info may be wrong, but it made sense to me. 2A72 barrel flexes quite a lot when firing, thats why I thought a guide rail or sleeve can improve accuracy.

   Well, that was embarrassing. Somebody was using expired GL-ATGMs from stocks or something else was wrong.

 

27:18 - T-90A misses target with GL-ATGM (hit ground before getting to "tank"), 2nd launch was not shown (i suspect missed, announcer didn't told about hit), 3rd missile hit. 1 out of 3.

 

36:20 - T-80U cannon vibrates like on those videos of Oplots from European tank competition. 37:08 - missile launch, missed (flies over target). Next GL-ATGM (37:44), same thing - missile flies above target, missed. 3rd one managed to hit a tank. 1/3

 

45:15 - T-80UE-1, GL-ATGM flies way above target. 2nd one hit (not sure if it was solid hit), 3rd also probably was hit. 2/3

 

54:57 - T-72B3s. 4 GL-ATGM launches, all 4 hits. 4/4

 

1:11:10 - T-80BVM. 1st missed, managed to hit a forst about 150-200 meters behind targets, didn't saw 2nd one (announcer didn't told about hit, i guess it missed as 1st and 2nd were launched very quickly and on videofeed of targeted tanks there were no hits) and 3rd one hit a tree behind targets. 0/3

 

So, in total 16 GL-ATGM launches, 8 hits.

 

 

   Viktor Murakhovskiy about this: few corrections and remarks.

   I would like to unsee this, but alas. The best tanks, the best crews in the public display of the combat capabilities of Russian weapons and such a sh**show.
   Dynamic display of armored vehicles in Alabino on August 24, 2020
   Shooting guided weapon system (GWS), ranges to targets (tanks) 2400-2700 m.


   T-90A tanks of the 27th OMsBr Brigade (from 23:34), 1A45-T FCS, 9K119 "Reflex" GWS.
1 - shot, miss
2 - "boot", disruption of guidance
3 - on target
4 - misfire, failure of the FCS? As a result, the tank did not fire at all, neither GWS nor a shell.


   Tanks T-80U of the 4th Guards TD (from 31:41). 1A45 FCS, 9K119 "Reflex" GWS.
1 - overshot, miss (before the shot, the self-oscillations of the gun barrel are clearly visible, that is, the stabilizer is not adjusted)
2 - overshot, miss
3 - "boot", disruption of guidance
4 - on target


   Tanks T-80UE1 4th Guards TD (from 42:04). 1A45-1 FCS, 9K119 "Reflex" GWS.
1 - overshot, miss
2 - "boot", disruption of guidance
3 - shot, miss
4 - on target


   Tanks T-72B3 mod. 2011, without a single tactical sign, it is quite possible that those are from those delivered by UVZ for tank biathlon, as indicated by the unpainted railway gauge on one of the cars and the Army forum label on the other (51:34). 1A40-4, "Sosna-U", 9K119 "Reflex" GWS.
1 - on target
2 - on target
3 - on target
4 - on target

 

   You can think of a lot of supposedly objective excuses, such as the expired designated service lives of guided missiles. But "after a fight you don't wave your fists". It hurts for our tank troops ...

   Additional protection for BMP-2 and BMP-3 in the army will be, contracts have been signed.

On BMP-2 and BMP-3 Manul, additional armor at the exhibition is not ERA, but such options exist.
BMP-3 with the Epokha (the purchase of which was promised for the Army-2017) is on trial.
BMP-3 Manul in terms of armor protection is similar to the usual BMP-3. Development is proactive under the requirements of the RF Ministry of Defense for the front engined IFV.
BMP-3 with Arena is practically forgotten.

   MFTV (thermal imaging video signal generation module) FEM18M-03. "Our everything" for the near future in military thermal imaging. Known orders have been completed, production version is finalised.
   Unfortunately, currently FEM18M-03 uses the Chinese microcryogenic machine SCI04R (a copy of the machine of the famous Israeli company Ricor). It seems to be planned in the near future to replace it with a Russian version.
   Work is underway on a detector of the same resolution (640x512) in long-wavelength range. Megapixel detector will not be soon.
