The single-module combat training radar is capable of working on hypersonic and stealth targets in the 90-degree sector
KUBINKA /Moscow region/, August 23. /TASS/. The training of regular combat crews to work with the Resonance-N radar stations (radars) capable of detecting and giving target designation for hypersonic and stealth targets will begin in 2022 with the deployment of a single-module radar of this type at the training center of the radio-technical air defense forces of the VKS in the Vladimir Region. This was stated to TASS by a source in the military-industrial complex.
"The Resonance-N single-module combat training radar, capable of working on hypersonic and stealth targets in the 90-degree sector, will begin operating in the Vladimir Region in early 2022. From this time, the purposeful preparation of combat crews for combat duty on this type of radar will begin, " he said on the sidelines of the Army-2021 international military-technical forum.
Currently, as part of the 45th Army of the Air Force and Air Defense of the Northern Fleet, three 4-module radar stations of the "Resonance-N" type of all-round view are on combat duty or deployed.
The Resonance-N radar operates in the meter range and uses the principle of wave resonance, which allows detecting aircraft made using stealth technologies, as well as hypersonic targets flying at speeds up to 20 sound speeds. The radars are capable of detecting and issuing target designations for aerodynamic air targets at a range of 600 km, for ballistic targets - at a range of up to 1200 km, at an altitude of up to 100 km.
