The SU 34 Fullback seems to have been designed head-to-toe with pilot comfort in mind. Instead of sitting one in front of the other, Fullback pilots sit side by side like in a car. This saves room in the cockpit as the pilots can share instruments, and do not need duplicates for their separate compartments pic 1 Instead of climbing into the cockpit from a rolling staircase like US pilots do, the Russian pilots simply climb up a ladder attached to the landing gear. Now comes the really amazing part. The cabin is actually big enough to move around in, which is unthinkable in the sleek, streamlined jets the US flies. Pilots can actually lay down in the cabin if they're tired. pic 2 Also, they can use this device as a sort of urinal. ![]() ![]() pic 3

Terminator 2 At Russian Arms Expo 2013 defense exhibition in Nizhny Tagil (Russia), the Russian Defense Company Uralvagonzavod unveiled a new version of its Terminator, fire support armoured fighting vehicle BMPT-72. The idea to build new heavily armed tank support vehicles emerged on the basis of experience acquired by the Russian military during the First Chechen War in North Caucasus, especially during the urban fighting in Grozny in 1995 when Russian troops lost a large number of combat vehicles to “guerrilla warfare” tactics used by Chechen separatists. As the first production of BMP-T, the BMPT-72 is based on the chassis of the Russian-made main battle tank T-72. The vehicle offers new protection and fire power especially in urban operations. The BMPT-72 is able to fight a full range of modern targets as main battle tank, armoured infantry fighting vehicles and other combat vehicles, dismounted infantry, and guided missile combat teams. The BMPT-72 is an extensive modernization of the world-famous T-72 main battle tank, also produced by Uralvagonzavod. Compared with the BMPT predecessor, the BMPT-72 has an improved fire control system and better turret weapon station protection. According to manufacturer Uralvgonzavod, the key advantage that the BMPT-72 gives to all the counties that operate T-72 tanks is that they can promptly and at minimal cost upgrade their armies to an ultra-modern level, and enhance capacity, mobility, protection and armament without purchasing new high-cost machines. The BMPT-72 or Terminator 2 is fitted with a new unmanned redesigned fully stabilized electromechanical turret, with lower profile and better protection. The main armament of the BMPT-72 turret consists of two 30mm automatic guns 2A42 and one PKTM 7.62mm coaxial machine gun which can be used against light armoured vehicles and manpower. The guns can fire a wide range of ammunitions as APERS-T (Anti-Personnel ammunitions), HEF-I (High-explosive Fragmentation Incendiary), AP-T (Armour Piercing)., and KE (Kinetic Energy). Two anti-tank guided missile Ataka-T launcher units are mounted to each side of the turret. The missile 9M1201 can be equipped with two types of warheads, hollow-charge and high-explosive concrete-piercing. The BMPT-72 is equipped with computerized fire control system with multichannel sighting system and weapon high-accuracy laying systems. The vehicle carries 850 rounds for the 30mm guns and 2,100 ammunitions for the 7.62mm machine gun. The turret protection includes armored shields for the missiles, protecting the missiles from splinters and firing of small arms. The turret can be rotated on 360 ° with elevation from -5° to +25° for the anti-tank missile and from -5° to +45° for the guns and coaxial machine gun. The anti-tank missile can engage a target up to a maximum distance of 6,000 m while the guns have a maximum range of 2,500 against light armoured vehicles and 4,000 against light tactical vehicles and troops. A screening system increases the self-protection of the BMPT-72 which is designed to counter laser target-designators and laser rangefinders. Six smoke grenade launchers are mounted to each side of the turret. When the screening system warns the crew of laser attacks a smoke is created by the launch of grenades. The BMPT-72 or Terminator 2 has a crew of three with the removal of two grenade launching positions, while the first version of BMP-T had a crew of five. The drive is located at the front center of the hull with gunner and commander at the rear. A panoramic sight is mounted at the front of the tank commander and the gunner position is equipped with day periscopes on 360°. The BMPT-72 hull and turret are made of steel armour and integrates latest protection systems with explosive reactive armour (ERA) to the front of the turret, a detachable ERA module on the glacis plate and applique ERA on the sides of the hull and turret. The rear parts of the turret and the chassis are fitted with slat armour to increase protection against anti-tank rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) attacks. The anti-tank launch units include armored shields for the missiles, protecting the missiles from splinters and small arms fire.

Re: Technical Discussions On International Military Equipments Doctrines Tactics Etc by Nobody: 6:26pm On Aug 01, 2016 |
Odunayaw: easily can be converted to 1. terminator type vehicle 2. a heavy IFV but from nigerian point i belive it should go for offensive weapon (t55-terminator) not defensive weapons (t55-heavy apc) as for t55 based spaag i will not recommend this , not worth the money spend , better to buy dedicated spaag with gun missile combo. will post more info on that later t55 upgrade , keep tracking the thread. |

Re: Technical Discussions On International Military Equipments Doctrines Tactics Etc by Nobody: 10:39pm On Aug 01, 2016 |
chinese8107: really i dont think so. SWS2 is more like a IFV and terminator 2 more like a MBT. a rpg will decimate the SWS2, but not the terminator 2 , the Russians made this terminator class vehicle based on their experience in Chechnya etc. u cannot take a armed vehicle and say i will use it here or there in a standalone mode, while a purpose build fire support vehicle like terminator is build keeping in mind real life operational scenarios to be encountered in direct combat with enemy land forces . i will pick terminator any day without a second thought over SWS2 which is a AAA system meant to operate in the rear outside of direct enemy contact. |
Re: Technical Discussions On International Military Equipments Doctrines Tactics Etc by chinese8107: 4:45am On Aug 02, 2016 |
nemesis2u: SWS2 plus some side-armor is not hard,and it's own gun is against low speed cruise missle &ATGM , though it's not battle tested to interrupt an RPG from near distance.It's better to engage enemy form far distance and off course not alone or only one unit . with the help of CT3 there is little chances being hit by a RPG. the same gun used on PGZ-07 AA vehicle pic 1 I guess terminator 2 is also hard to stand a RPG from close distance too.At least big damage. it supose to be better protected with 47 tons weight. While the SWS2 is wheeled has lower maintainance cost than tracked,lighter and easy to move.23 tons C-130 tranportable

Supersonic Laser-Propelled Rockets by Staff Writers Washington DC (SPX) Oct 30, 2014 The effectiveness of current laser-propulsion techniques is limited by the instability of supersonic gas flow, caused by shock waves that "choke" the inlet of the nozzle, reducing thrust. Those effects can be reduced with the help of laser ablation, redirecting the plasma plume so that it flows close to the interior walls of a supersonic nozzle and significantly improving the overall thrust. Image courtesy Y.Rezunkov/IOIE. Scientists and science fiction writers alike have dreamt of aircrafts that are propelled by beams of light rather than conventional fuels. Now, a new method for improving the thrust generated by such laser-propulsion systems may bring them one step closer to practical use. The method, developed by physicists Yuri Rezunkov of the Institute of Optoelectronic Instrument Engineering, Russia and Alexander Schmidt of the Ioffe Physical Technical Institute in Saint Petersburg, Russia is described in The Optical Society's (OSA) journal Applied Optics. Currently, the maximum speed of a spacecraft is limited by the amount of solid or liquid fuel that it can carry. Achieving higher speeds means that more fuel must be burned-fuel that, inconveniently, has to be carried by the craft and hefted into space. These burdensome loads can be reduced, however, if a laser-one located at a remote location, and not actually on the spacecraft-were used to provide additional propulsive force. A number of systems have been proposed that can produce such laser propulsion. One of the most promising involves a process called laser ablation, in which a pulsed laser beam strikes a surface, heats it up, and burns off material to create what is known as a plasma plume-a column of charged particles that flow off the surface. The outflowing of that plasma plume-essentially, exhaust-generates additional thrust to propel the craft. In their Applied Optics paper, Rezunkov and Schmidt describe a new system that integrates a laser-ablation propulsion system with the gas blasting nozzles of a spacecraft. Combining the two systems, the researchers found, can increase the speed of the gas flow out of the system to supersonic speeds while reducing the amount of burned fuel. The researchers show that the effectiveness of current laser-propulsion techniques is limited by factors including the instability of supersonic gases as they flow through the gas nozzle, as well as the production of shock waves that "choke" the inlet of the nozzle, reducing thrust. But those effects can be reduced with the help of a laser-ablation plasma plume that is redirected so that it will flow close to the interior walls of the nozzle. Coupling the ablation jet with supersonic gas flow through the nozzle, they find, significantly improves the overall thrust generated by the nozzle. "Summarizing the data obtained, we can forecast the application of the supersonic laser propulsion techniques not only for launching small satellites to Earth orbits but also for additional acceleration of supersonic aircrafts to achieve Mach 10 and more," Rezunkov said. "Supersonic Laser Propulsion," Y. Rezunkov and A. Schmidt, Applied Optics, Vol. 53, Issue 31, pp. I55-I62 (2014). |

THIRD WORLD ANTI BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM The Indian Ballistic Missile Defence Programme is an initiative to develop and deploy a multi-layered ballistic missile defence system to protect from ballistic missile attacks.it is a double-tiered system consisting of two interceptor missiles, namely the Prithvi Air Defence (PAD) missile for high altitude interception, and the Advanced Air Defence (AAD) Missile for lower altitude interception. The two-tiered shield should be able to intercept any incoming missile launched 5,000 kilometres away. India began the development of the ballistic missile defence system in 1998. The development was planned in two stages. Russia, Israel and France provided assistance in areas where DRDO needed help "bridging technology gap and accelerating technology development." Russia helped India develop the new Radio Frequency Seeker for the interceptor, Israel provided help in developing the 'Swordfish' long-range tracking radar and the French helped with the Fire Control System for the BMD. In Phase 1 the DRDO set for itself the goal of developing a BMD system capable of intercepting TBMs and IRBMs at an altitude of 100km with the help of a PDV two-stage exo-atmospheric interceptor using solid rockets motors and an imaging infra-red terminal seeker, with the Mach 5 AAD-1 endo-atmospheric interceptor (also using an imaging infra-red terminal seeker) serving as a back-up for intercepting the hostile re-entry vehicle at an altitude of 20km. This interceptor stands 7.5 metres tall, weighs around 1.3 tonnes and has a diameter of less than 0.5 metres. Phase 2 of the DRDO’s BMD system’s developmental roadmap, and would include the development of a new type of hypersonic endo-atmospheric interceptor—AD-2—capable of intercepting re-entry vehicles at an altitude of 35km. Phase 1 The Prithvi Air Defence (PAD) is an anti-ballistic missile developed to intercept incoming ballistic missiles outside the atmosphere (exo-atmospheric). Based on the Prithvi missile, PAD is a two-stage missile with a maximum interception altitude of 80 km (50 mi). The first stage is a Solid fuelled motor while the second stage is Liquid fuelled. It has manoeuvre thrusters which can generate a lateral acceleration of more than 5 gs at 50 km (31 mi) altitude. Guidance is provided by an intertial navigation system with mid-course updates from LRTR and active radar homing in the terminal phase. PAD has capability to engage the 300 to 2,000 km (190 to 1,240 mi) class of ballistic missiles at a speed of Mach 5. [img]http://1.bp..com/-0Ayo5qmso4o/VVWPitciv4I/AAAAAAAAKXA/6OWh0D0wwyQ/s1600/AAD.png[/img] LRTR is the target acquisition and fire control radar for the PAD missile. It is an active phased array radar having capability to track 200 targets at a range of 600 km (370 mi). The PAD missile has also been called Pradyumna. Further development led to the improvement of the interception range from 50 to 80 km (31 to 50 mi). The improved missile will utilize a gimbaled directional warhead, a technology also used by Israel, the US and Russia. This technology allows for a smaller warhead to destroy the target missile. new technologies have been added and modifications have been made in the interceptor missile PAD 02 to provide higher energy, an improved guidance and control system and an integrated a Gimbaled Directional Warhead with it. The new warhead weighed only around 30 kilograms but will generate the impact of a 150 kilogram omni-directional warhead could make. The entire system is fully automated and human intervention is not needed for activation. Advanced Air Defence (AAD)/Ashwin Ballistic Missile Interceptor ![]() The interceptor is in the form of a 7.5 meter-long single-stage rocket propelled guided missile that is equipped with a navigation system, a hi-tech computer and an electro-mechanical activator. It is capable of noting the location of the hostile objects with the help of tracking radars. The ring laser gyro-based navigation system in target, fibre optic gyro-based inertial navigation system (INS) in interceptor, onboard computers, guidance systems, actuation systems and the critical radio frequency (RF) seekers are used for the terminal phase. The AAD missile system, initially guided by INS, continuously got update of the target's position by the radar through a data link. The RF seeker tracked the target missile and onboard computer of the AAD middile guided it towards the target missile. The radio proximity fuse of the AAD missile exploded the warhead thereby destroying the target missile completely. The supersonic low-altitude missile weighs around 1.2 tonnes, stands 7.5 meters tall and has a diameter of under 0.5 meters. The missile comes with an inbuilt navigator, an advanced computer and an electro-mechanical activator. The technology within the missile is encrypted using a secure data link independent tracking and homing capabilities and sophisticated radars. Phase 2 Two new anti ballistic missiles that can intercept IRBMs are being developed. These high speed missiles (AD-1 and AD-2) are being developed to intercept ballistic missiles with a range of around 5,000 km (3,100 mi). PDV [img]http://1.bp..com/-lA-5jmM1rd8/VTq48CKyxqI/AAAAAAAAARE/otZqTtWgZ3E/s1600/article-2614397-1D68557800000578-700_634x545.jpg[/img] In 2009, reports emerged of a new missile named the PDV. The DRDO is developing a new Prithvi interceptor missile codenamed PDV. It will be a two-stage missile and both the stages will be powered by solid propellants. It will have an innovative system for controlling the vehicle at an altitude of more than 150 km The PDV is intended to replace the existing PAD in the PAD/AAD combination. It will have an IIR seeker for its kill vehicle as well. The PDV will replace the PAD with a far more capable missile and will complete the Phase 1 of the BMD system, allowing it to be operational by 2013. Whereupon Phase 2 development will take over for protection against missiles of the 5,000 km (3,100 mi) range class. The first test flight of the missile was expected in 2010. The PDV is designed to take out the target missile at altitudes above 150 km (93 mi). The first PDV was successfully test fired on 27 April 2014.

THIRD WORLD ANTI BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM continue from above.......... OVERVIEW The BMD system will have five essential components. Firstly, there’s the early warning system that is capable of signalling the launch of hostile ballistic missiles. This system will comprise both airborne early warning & control (AEW & C) aircraft as well as a satellite-based missile monitoring system (MSS). Secondly, there’s the 1,500km-range variant of the L-band active phased-array EL/M-2080 long-range tracking radar (LRTR)—to be supplied by Israel Aerospace Industries—(IAI) with long wavelength to spot the re-entry vehicles as they rise above the horizon (while they are still 5,000km or six minutes away) and provide range, velocity and angular discrimination of the targets. Thirdly, there is the multi-functional fire-control radar (MFCR) using the already-delivered THALESRaytheon-supplied S-band Master-A short-wavelength 350m-range radar to determine the position of each re-entry vehicle with precision and guide the interceptor. Fourthly, there are the two interceptor vehicles for exo-atmospheric and endo-atmospheric kills, both presently equipped with 9E49/DB-100N dual-plane monopulse two-channel X-band terminal guidance radars (which can lock on to a 0.05 square metre RCS target from a distance of 16.2nm) imported from Russia, but are due for replacement in future with an imaging infra-red seeker of Israeli origin. Lastly, there’s the IAI-designed battle management, command, control, communications and intelligence (BMC3I) centre for commanding, controlling and coordinating the entire two-tier interception process. [img]http://1.bp..com/-iMWV6Acngyk/Tlwphkb0fVI/AAAAAAAAAQY/uIXqvGUqlDE/s320/ELM-2080+Green+Pine+LRTR.jpg[/img] Swordfish Long Range Tracking Radar (LRTR) based on Israeli Green Pine long range radar The operational sequence would play out as follows: Once the AEW & C platforms or MMS detects a hostile ballistic missile launch, it passes on the target vectors via SATCOM channels of the Indian Air Force’s IACCS network to the BMC3I, which in turn alerts the appropriate LRTR to acquire the inbound hostile ballistic missiles (TBMs, IRBMs or MRBMs), the transporter-erector-launcher vehicles housing the exo-atmospheric and endo-atmospheric interceptors will be activated on ‘hot-stand’ mode, ready to be fired within 40 seconds. Once in range, the Master-A MFCR—capable of detecting airborne targets with a RCS of 0.3 square metres at 350km range—would take over. The command line-of-sight guidance computation will take another 15 seconds, following which the exo-atmospheric interceptor missile will be fired. The missile’s on-board strap-down inertial navigation system (SDINS)—comprising a ring laser gyro-based inertial navigation sensor—will provide mid-course correction updates for trajectory shaping until the on-board terminal guidance sensor finally takes over. The definitive PDV exo-atmospheric interceptor will be cruising at Mach 5 but will attain a peak terminal speed of Mach 11—made possible by the divert thruster placed on top of the second-stage. The divert thruster will generate high lateral acceleration for the ‘end-game’. Both the warhead and divert thruster will be fired simultaneously towards the target once they are within the acquisition range of the yet-to-be-made-available on-board imaging infra-red seeker (all PAD and AAD flight-tests have thus far used the 9E49/DB-100N X-band monopulse terminal guidance radar of Russian origin), following which the next three seconds will result in the targetted re-entry vehicle being intercepted in the ‘hit-to-kill’ mode at an altitude of over 200km—all this being done within 150 seconds. Unlike the definitive Mach 8 AAD-2 endo-atmospheric interceptor, whose flight trajectory will be shaped through aerodynamic control out to an altitude of 35km, the exo-atmospheric interceptor uses a reaction-control system using auxiliary motors and flex nozzles, and has minimal manoeuvrability of 2 G. The endo-atmospheric interceptor will use a two-stage solid-propellant rocket motor for intercepting 5,000km-range ballistic missiles, and will have excellent manoeuvrability and will be able to sustain up to 30 G. [img]http://3.bp..com/-Y89frdGW-aU/TlwplppV9YI/AAAAAAAAAQc/RzyNt8mkC5k/s320/Master-A+MFCR.jpg[/img] multi-functional fire-control radar (MFCR) THALES Raytheon-supplied S-band Master-A short-wavelength 350m-range radar Swordfish is an Indian active electronically scanned array (AESA) long-range tracking radar specifically developed to counter ballistic missile threat. It will be a part of the Indian Ballistic Missile Defence Programme. First testing of this radar was in March 2009. Main aim of the test was to validate the capabilities of the Swordfish Long Range Tracking Radar (LRTR). Swordfish is an acknowledged derivative of the Israeli Green Pine long range radar, which is the critical component of that country's Arrow missile defence system. However, it differs from the Israeli system as it employs Indian Transmit Receive modules, signal processing, computers and power supplies. It is also more powerful than the base Green Pine system and was developed to meet India's specific BMD needs.The Swordfish LRTR currently has a range of 600 km -800 km range and can spot objects as small as a cricket ball (3-inches in diameter), which the DRDO is in the process of upgrading it to 1,500 km . but the Indian ABM is far from being mature it will take atleast 5-10 years to mature before it can be fully operationalized and put into active duty. all said and done India became the fourth country to have developed an anti-ballistic missile system, after United States, Russia, and Israel. picture 1 and 2 DRDO conceptualized theater missile defense (TMD) Architecture

Odunayaw: BTR-T it is russian , it is a deep upgrade , u have to negotiate with the russians to see if they can do it locally in nigeria. my personal view only it is better to buy the latest MANPADS, rather then convert t55units as SPAAG for air defence role , because to make it an effective spaag u will need to integrate good radar, optical systems etc to it, ultimately the cost u will incur in development , testing , tooling etc will not be justified , u will be able to buy a new modern spaag for the same money. |

M14A1: lol it just got launched ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Eitan is a a new 8×8 armored personnel carrier from israel, u already know that ![]() ![]() lets see the protection 1.uses the Trophy Active Protection Systems (APS) , good against high level threats including surprise attacks 2.modular armor on the vehicles front and sides , guess these can be changed depending on threat levels , my personal opinion only ![]() only spaced armour visible to me by the looks of the armour, what about ERA ? namer uses ERA panels so it is possible Eitan uses latest dual layer ERA , again it is my guess only but it be fun if it sports all 3 1.passive (visible at least to me ![]() 2.reactive ( ? in doubt but Israelis trend is to carry over tech from other similar role vehicles, namer in this case) 3. active (visible) 3.the vehicle floor is raised by a fair bit , V shaped maybe (cant see below in the pics ![]() 4.in the pictures u can see that the small rear ramp flanked on both sides with cargo bins, should provide little better protection than an open door / ramp. small things make big difference ![]() 5. The pictures show clean outer surface unbroken generally, which should enable integration of sensors , weapons etc easily. i read various RCWS can be installed with high caliber guns upto 40mm maybe even more higher caliber in the future , also ATGM can be easily added 6.also they have made the vehicle modular meaning that it can be configured into different variants by replacing hull modules. command variant , ambulance variant , recovery variant , mortar carrier , dedicated ATGM platform , mobile gun platform like striker etc very much possible in the future. 6.tyres will be run flat , common feature nowadays 7. not amphibious , lacks thruster atleast for the present one , maybe they will add it later. general info weight 35 t , 750hp engine , power to weight ratio 21-25 , speed +90km/hr , 3 + 9 carriage the eitan is a prototype right now, still it shows good capabilities for high paced high intensity mobile warfare that is 1.speed/maneuvering capability (P/W=21-25 , 750hp) 2.protection (active/passive/reactive) 3.firepower (almost everything possible within the vehicle constraints ![]() ![]() so lets wait for the production version or for added details from designer, cant see more ![]() ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wdxsBQ101U 1 Like
