And what tasks will its unmanned underwater vehicles perform

On September 1, the opinion of a military expert, former US Army officer Brent Eastwood, about the capabilities of the Russian Navy was published in the American media. According to him, the Russian Federation has powerful underwater forces. And the newest nuclear submarine, which joined the fleet in July, the BS—329 Belgorod special purpose submarine of project 09852, poses a special threat to America. About what role the unique Belgorod plays in the development of domestic submarine forces, read in the Izvestia material.

The US Navy announced the release by Iran of two American unmanned surface ships that were captured by an Iranian warship in the Red Sea. 18 hours after the capture of the ships, the Iranian command decided to release them. This incident occurred against the background of indirect nuclear negotiations between Washington and Tehran, which immediately turned out to be close to a halt.

The Ukrainian army received the first THeMIS robotic platform developed by the Estonian company Milrem Robotics. The program called "Crane" to saturate the Armed Forces with robotic complexes was launched by former President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko.

Army-2022 Forum: Collective intelligence and artificial intelligence

On August 21, the International Military-Technical Forum "Army-2022" completed its work. Once again, the forecasts of our so-called Western partners about the isolation of Russia have been put to shame. Tens of thousands of specialists, experts, members of foreign delegations, ordinary citizens attended the events of the forum. The Forum has become a new breakthrough for Russia in military and military-technical activities.

Military historian Dmitry Boltenkov — about how the modern fleet is switching to underwater drones

The Navy receives nuclear submarines of the fourth generation. They are represented by projects of submarines with ballistic missiles on board the 955 and 955A "Borey" family and attack boats with a variety of missile and torpedo weapons of the 885 and 885M "Ash" family.

With this publication we open a new topical topic of modern military research. Your attention is invited to an article recently published by the British resource shephardmedia.com . In his work "How faithful wingmen can improve the actions of next-generation fighters", the author, Gordon Arthur, consistently analyzes the state of affairs and the prospects for the implementation of the idea of joint combat use of manned aircraft and UAVs.

The device is designed to work as a slave in an advanced attacking echelon in cooperation with manned aircraft

The Kronstadt company has started work on a state contract for the development of a draft design of a multi-purpose high-speed unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) "Thunder", first presented in 2020. This was reported to TASS in the press service of the enterprise at the last forum "Army-2022".

The International Military-Technical Forum "Army-2022" has completed its work. The reference material summarizing the results of the forum is published on the website of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

At the international military-technical forum, Russian robotic complexes (RTK) "Bogomol" and "Platform-MULE" were shown. This technique was created by specialists of the scientific and technical association "Avanti".

At the Army-2022 International Military-Technical Forum, Ural Automobile Plant JSC (as part of United Machine-Building Group LLC) presented a prototype of an unmanned truck on the Ural-432067-73 chassis with a 4x4 wheel formula. Although the machine was originally developed for the Russian Armed Forces, however, it is offered for both military and civilian applications (which was emphasized by the original "two-sided" paint scheme of the machine).

Within the framework of the Army-2022 forum, the ERA technopolis specialized exposition presents joint developments of researchers and operators of scientific companies of the military innograd with leading universities, research organizations and industrial enterprises.

The Western press has published material on the prospective development of new AML MLRS based on HIMARS installations, which are capable of operating without a crew, and are also equipped with twelve missiles instead of six. Interestingly, the authors began the article, apparently, with the phrase mandatory for Western media: "HIMARS multipurpose rocket launchers demonstrate their high efficiency on the Ukrainian front."

About domestic shipbuilding in the conditions of a special military operation in Ukraine

The task of achieving technological sovereignty has been set for the domestic shipbuilding industry. This requirement is fixed not only in the new Maritime Doctrine, the design bureaus and shipyards of the United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC) are working to achieve this goal.

The very first day of the Army-2022 exhibition clearly showed that human participation in wars is gradually decreasing, the main combat load falls on robots. The forum presented the M-81 robot for land combat, an unmanned army truck, an unmanned helicopter, and most importantly – the latest combined-type drone. But for some reason, experts call cheap UAVs from China the main rivals of the drone.

Rostec State Corporation showed the capabilities of a combat robot on the chassis of a BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicle, which received the Tit module. The corresponding video appeared in the Telegram channel of the state corporation.

This year, a robotic version of the BMP-3 was presented at the Army International Military-Technical Forum. According to the Rostec State Corporation, the modernization of the machine is being carried out at the Kurganmashzavod with the participation of the Signal Research Institute − both enterprises are part of the High-Precision Complexes holding.

On the eve of the Army-2022 forum, Signal CEO Vladimir Pimenov told RIA Novosti correspondent Ivan Suraev in an interview about the company's novelties at the exhibition, promising projects and what robots are participating in a special military operation in Ukraine today.

At the exhibition, it will be possible to see unmanned armored vehicles, the latest ammunition and trophies of the special operation in Ukraine

Kubinka, near Moscow, will host Russia's main international exhibition in the military-technical sphere, the Army—2022 forum, from August 15 to 21. According to the head of the Russian Defense Ministry Sergei Shoigu, this year it is planned to participate about one and a half thousand enterprises and organizations from Russia and abroad.

At the Army-2022 exhibition-forum, the BMP-3, which can be controlled with a glance, will be presented for the first time

The Signal Research Institute (part of the "High-Precision Complexes" of the Rostec State Corporation) allows you to enter the unreal reality through American glasses and control a combat vehicle. Following the turn of the operator's head, the multi-ton combat vehicle obediently turns the panoramic sight. Another second – and the barrel of the BMP is heading in the direction of the target.

Everyone who has ever tried to find sunken treasures knows that this is a very costly and technically complex event. The SeaSearcher underwater drone, developed under the guidance of engineer Tim Reynolds, who heads the Wild Manta company, will help facilitate the work of underwater treasure seekers.
