News land-based units

A lot has been said about the development of the promising Kharkov tank Object 477 "Hammer" in the USSR, but all these materials are not systematized and full of contradictions.

The British company Engineered Arts has reached impressive heights in the field of robotics, to demonstrate which it has released a video with a new Ameca robot. The android machine differs in two aspects. Firstly, she has very realistic movements, including facial expressions. Secondly, Ameca is a good actress and has already managed to impress observers with her performance.

More than 500 tank crews of formations and military units of the Southern Military District conducted live firing in the first week of the winter training period, the press service of the Southern Military District reported.

About one hundred units of the VVST received formations and military units of the Central Military District stationed in the Samara, Saratov, Novosibirsk regions, as well as in Udmurtia and the Republic of Tajikistan, in November of this year.

At the recent exercises of the artillery units of the Ukrainian army, a strangely modified 122-mm self-propelled artillery installation 2S1 "Carnation" was noticed.

No, this ACS has not received a new digital automated fire control system, as in some countries, satellite navigation, upgraded communications equipment, night vision devices or a remote-controlled anti-aircraft installation.

Tank units of the Polish army will receive Abrams M1A2SEPv3 next year. We are talking about 28 cars. Earlier it was reported that a group of military personnel from this state is in the United States, where they are being trained in the operation and combat use of such equipment.

The Russian army will receive new vehicles for the Arctic. The military will be given tractors with robotic manipulators for the repair and evacuation of equipment at temperatures below minus 50 degrees. This is reported by the Izvestia newspaper, citing sources in the Russian Defense Ministry.

The Kestrel wheeled Indian armored vehicle ("Kestrel") was created to replace the outdated Czechoslovak-made OT-64 armored personnel carriers and Soviet BMP-1.

Modules with weapons of various types, including uninhabited ones, were installed on it at different times. However, judging by the video footage that appeared on the Network, currently preference is given to the tower from the Russian BMP-2 Sarath ("Victory Chariot"), which is produced in India under license.

Soviet T-72 tanks are in service with almost fifty countries of the world, and during this time only a few countries have abandoned their operation. Why did this happen?

The state enterprise "Kharkiv Armored Plant" for the first time carried out a deep modernization of the commander's tank T-64BVK, reports "Ukroboronprom". The concern showed a video of tests of the updated equipment on YouTube.

In the Central Military District, the first full-time company was formed with Terminator tank support combat vehicles. It included nine BMPT. The new equipment will be used in large-scale exercises that will take place next year: they will study the use of a battalion of tank support combat vehicles.

Last Wednesday, the 120th Separate Guards mechanized brigade of the Belarusian army hosted the presentation of armored personnel carriers BTR-82A. This is reported in the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Belarus.

The equipment was received by the personnel of the 339th separate motorized rifle battalion. The event was held in a solemn atmosphere, under the combat banner of the unit and during the general formation of personnel.

Russia is ready to mass-produce anti-aircraft Tigers. On December 1, the TASS news agency reported that the Design Bureau of Mechanical Engineering (KBM) has prepared for serial production the first Russian air defense system (air defense) of short/ultra-short range type VSHORAD (Very Short-Range Air Defense) "Flexible-S".

Next year, the Tunguska 2S6 anti-aircraft missile and cannon, considered one of the world's best air defense systems of the ground forces, will celebrate the 40th anniversary of its adoption.

All this time, the complex has been constantly improving, and now new versions significantly exceed the original samples. In particular, they received additional multi-channel sights that allow them to detect and attack the enemy at any time of the day.

The missile is designed to destroy modern and promising enemy armored vehicles with dynamic protection, as well as fortifications and engineering structures

The export-oriented modification of the latest Mi-28NM combat helicopter will be equipped with guided missiles (UR) "Chrysanthemum" developed by the Design Bureau of Mechanical Engineering (KBM, part of the holding "High-Precision Complexes" of the Rostec State Corporation).

In the noughties, Ukraine continued to think about what to do with outdated T-64A tanks. No modernization made it possible to tighten their characteristics to a modern level, the best thing that could be done with them was to adapt them to solve engineering problems, use them as training until the resource was fully developed, and then dispose of them.

Thanks to the adaptation to any type of chassis, it will fit everything from a car to a robot, said Alexey Leonkov, editor of the Arsenal of the Fatherland magazine

The latest modification of the Kornet-EM anti-tank missile system (ATGM), thanks to adaptation to any type of chassis, can be installed on any equipment, starting from a car and up to a robot. This opinion was expressed by TASS editor of the magazine "Arsenal of the Fatherland" Alexey Leonkov.

The missile is part of the armament of the Chrysanthemum-S self-propelled anti-tank missile system, and is also adapted for the latest combat helicopters, in particular, the Mi-28NM and Ka-52M

The Engineering Design Bureau (KBM, part of the Rostec State Corporation's High-Precision Complexes holding) is upgrading one of the most powerful guided anti-tank missiles in the world, the Chrysanthemum. This was announced to TASS by the general designer of the KBM Valery Kashin during the international arms exhibition EDEX 2021.

An updated commander's T-64BVK was demonstrated at the Kharkov Armored Plant. It is reported that this upgraded model of equipment has already been successfully tested. It is designed to control tank units and brigade-battalion level units.

The complex has already successfully completed state tests in 2019

The Engineering Design Bureau (KBM, part of the Rostec State Corporation's High-Precision Complexes holding) has prepared for serial production the first Russian short-range/ultra-short-range air defense system of the VSHORAD [Very Short-Range Air Defense] "Flexible-S" type. This was reported to TASS by Bekhan Ozdoev, industrial director of the cluster of armaments, ammunition and special chemicals of the Rostec State Corporation.
