News of new developments in the military-industrial complex

An aviation integrated electric power system based on a single high-temperature superconducting (HTS) platform will appear in Russia. It is being developed as part of a joint project Of the Foundation for advanced research and CJSC "Superox". The system consists of a battery, a htsp cable, a htsp current limiting device, and a htsp electric motor.

The Russian defense Ministry plans to dramatically increase the order for strategic cruise missiles. "At the beginning of next year, we will conclude long-term contracts for the additional purchase of high-precision long-range missiles, which will double their number," defense Minister Sergei Shoigu reported to the President last Monday.

Technologies tested during the dive into the Mariana trench in may of the unmanned underwater vehicle "Vityaz-D "will be used for military purposes, said the head of the" United shipbuilding Corporation " (USC) Alexey Rakhmanov.

The transfer of two submarines of the Yasen-M project "Kazan" and "Novosibirsk" has also been postponed to 2021

The transfer of the Poseidon nuclear submarine carrier of the Belgorod submarine and two Yasen-M project submarines Kazan and Novosibirsk to the Russian Navy has been postponed to 2021. This was reported to TASS by a source in the military-industrial complex.

on Board is a radar that will allow you to get an image with a resolution of up to one meter

The launch of the radar satellite "Obzor-R" from the Plesetsk cosmodrome is scheduled for the third quarter of 2021, according to the state contract published on the public procurement portal.

The Kalashnikov Concern announced the successful completion of full-scale tests of the Strela 9M333 anti-aircraft guided missile (SAM) for the Strela 10M air defense system. The shooting took place at the Donguz training ground in the Orenburg region.

As reported on December 24, 2020, JSC "Concern "Kalashnikov "(part of the state Corporation rostec), it has completed testing and started mass production of the upgraded anti-aircraft guided missile 9M333, designed for anti-aircraft missile systems of the family "Strela-10M".

According to the data presented, the first flight tests of the new American HAWC hypersonic missile from Lockheed Martin were unsuccessful. As a result of a series of errors, the launch from the B-52 bomber was decided not to be carried out.

Russian experts are preparing to fly a plane with a superconducting engine. We have already carried out the installation of the power plant and a test run of the engine.

Scientists of the research center "Kurchatov Institute" as part of a research group received promising material for creating self-learning neuromorphic computing systems. Their energy efficiency is superior to conventional computers by several orders of magnitude.

The newspaper "Kommersant" under the headline "Now absolutely everything works on the buyer's side" published an interesting interview with the General Director of PJSC "United shipbuilding Corporation" (USC) Alexey Rakhmanov.

A source in the military-industrial complex did not confirm whether such tests were carried out with the heavy attack stealth drone "Hunter", but did not rule out the possibility of such tests in the future.

According to the collection "Main results of the activities of the Armed forces of the Russian Federation in 2012-2020" prepared by the Ministry of defense, four Avangard missile systems will be on combat duty by the end of December.

In the future, the new engine can be used for advanced long-range and military transport aircraft

PJSC " UEC-Kuznetsov "(part of the United engine Corporation of the state Corporation "rostec") plans until 2022 to conduct research work on the development of a promising gas generator for the fifth-generation engine in the thrust class 18-24 TS. This was reported to journalists by the General designer of the company Pavel Chupin.

The design Bureau of mechanical engineering (part of the holding NPO "high-Precision complexes" of the state Corporation rostec) introduces additive technologies in production.

With the development of electric aviation, aircraft with a shortened take-off can become a real alternative to aircraft with vertical take-off. The latter spend too much energy during takeoff and landing, thereby significantly limiting the "useful" range of their flight.

The first self-driving cars of Sber Automotive Technologies went to the streets of Moscow for testing in the conditions of the winter metropolis: the drones will be tested by high humidity, negative temperature, poor visibility and heavy road conditions.

A promising American fighter of the sixth generation, created under the Next-Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program, is likely to receive a co-pilot, whose role will be played by AI.

Russian engineers have created a prototype aircraft engine designed for the strategic bomber PAK DA.

The promising American tiltrotor has passed two new stages of testing. The device was tested with the Tactical Common Datalink communication channel, and also evaluated its ability to lift loads.
