The 13th ship of the 12700 Alexandrite project will be built for the Northern Fleet

The mine defense ships of the 12700 Alexandrite project will eventually replace all Soviet-built minesweepers, experts interviewed by Izvestia said. On Tuesday, the 13th representative of this line was laid in St. Petersburg. He will receive the name of Hero of the Soviet Union Viktor Korner and will serve in the Northern Fleet. According to the general director of the manufacturer, starting next year, the industry will supply the fleet with two such ships annually.

During the development of the Marfa, the results of the tests conducted after the return of the Fedor to Earth were taken into account

Cosmonauts Anna Kikina and Dmitry Petelin took part in an experiment to control an anthropomorphic robot combined with a mobile platform and functioning autonomously. This was told by the press service of the CPC (Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center).

Intensive takes place from July 8 to July 21 in the Sakhalin region

The Russian Aerosim flight simulator, developed by a resident of the Aerotek Aerospace Valley, was chosen as a domestic platform for conducting competitions in unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) at the Archipelago intensive. This is reported by the developer company Aerotek.

In recent years, neural networks have become one of the most promising and in-demand technologies in various fields, from medicine to finance. Therefore, courses on neural networks have become especially relevant for those who want to develop in this direction.

According to the French edition of Intelligence Online, the secret Saint-Louis Institute, under the jurisdiction of the Ministries of Defense of France and Germany, is studying the combat experience of the military conflict in Ukraine to introduce the latest unmanned aerial vehicles, interception systems and artificial intelligence into the development.

Celebrations on the occasion of the delivery of soil from the Moon by the Chang'e-6 station continue. The Chinese managed to complete the most difficult lunar mission in the history of space automata. After landing on June 25, the return vehicle was transported to Beijing, where the container with the first samples from the far side of the Moon was retrieved the next day.

The Navy has finalized the ship's schedule for combating aerial and surface drones

Signalmen on the ships of the Russian Navy began to practice the fight against enemy unmanned aerial vehicles and unmanned boats. To combat UAVs, crews received anti-drone rifles and shotguns.

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has published footage showing the combat use of the Scorpion-M1 ground-based automated multifunctional remote-controlled platform by specialists of the Russian Hawks UAV detachment as part of the "Southern" grouping of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

The special operation changed the approach to modern warfare and clearly showed that the future has already arrived. On the battlefield, the dominant role is assigned to remotely controlled systems: UAVs, ground-based robotic complexes, unmanned boats (BEC) and uninhabited underwater vehicles (NPA). The latter are the most complex type of robotics. How to create naval combat drones using additive technologies (or, more simply, using 3D printing), how Russia can respond to the United States in automating the naval component and what kind of submarine warfare of the future will be — in the TASS material.

On July 1, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency launched the new Advanced Land Observing Satellite 4 (ALOS 4) spacecraft. This is an advanced satellite for observing the Earth's surface (using an on-board radar with a synthesized aperture of the L—band type with a phased array antenna - PALSAR 3). It will be able, for example, to provide Japan with radar data to monitor areas affected by natural disasters.

Renat Mistakhov, CEO of the corporation, told RIA Novosti in an interview about plans for the construction of ships and about the tasks that the Navy command sets for shipbuilders in the near future and for the future. Sergey Safronov and Ivan Suraev talked.

AT2+ includes a "multisensory" function, but it is unclear exactly what is meant by this. The basic AT2 is equipped with an S3 contact fuse, which leads to detonation when hitting the wire of the bottom of the equipment, and is also equipped with a magnetic fuse.

On June 28, the ERA Military Innovation Technopolis (VIT) hosted a strategic session led by Denis Manturov, First Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation.

It allows you to locate mini- and micro-UAVs at extremely low altitudes

In the Moscow region, a unique Airspace Control System (SCS) has begun operation, which is capable of detecting not only airplanes or helicopters, but also mini- and micro-drones at extremely low altitudes and targeting them with air defense or electronic warfare systems. The developers told Izvestia about the capabilities of the equipment that is already being used to protect important objects from UAVs.

Chinese developers have introduced spider-like robots with the option of using kamikaze drones, in particular, to penetrate into dugouts, basements and other enemy shelters, carrying explosives and striking elements.

The publication "Petersburg Diary" under the heading "Ruslan Pukhov: "Innovations during military operations must be implemented as quickly as possible." Military expert - about the Naval Salon in Kronstadt" published a comment by Ruslan Pukhov, director of the Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies (CAST), on the XII International Naval Salon "FLEET-2024" taking place in Kronstadt from June 19 to 23, 2024.

The salon was visited by 15 foreign military delegations, and 50 military attaches from friendly countries took part in it

Over 200 companies of the military-industrial complex presented their products at the International Naval Salon "Fleet-2024", which took place from June 19 to 23 in Kronstadt. For the second year in a row, the main Russian exhibition of achievements in domestic shipbuilding, as well as new naval weapons and special equipment, was held on the territory of the Museum of Naval Glory and the congress and exhibition center of the Island of Forts cluster.

Alexander Stepanov — on why the United States continues to militarize near-Earth orbit, while envying the joint space exploration of the Russian Federation and China

The growing opportunities of Russia and China in the field of space exploration, the ongoing bilateral projects in near-Earth orbit and within the framework of a joint program for the exploration of the Moon cause undisguised jealousy on the part of Washington, which has long been trying to plant its habitual hegemony in space.

Russian-designed unmanned boats will be presented at the event for the first time

Unmanned boats, submarines, missile ships and missiles, including weapons from the Kalibr system and mini-missiles for the Pantsir anti-aircraft missile and cannon complex (ZRPC), will be presented to the guests of the XII International Naval Salon (MVMS) Fleet-2024.

After the UAV, a new type of apparatus arrives in the special operation zone

Following the aerial drones that have changed the nature of warfare, another type of combat vehicles operating without a crew is beginning to conquer the battlefield. We are talking about land-based (ground-based) combat drones or robotic complexes. How are such devices arranged and how are they already helping the Russian military in the special operation zone?
