"Army-2021" Military Technical Forum

The Army-2021 forum will open in less than a week, and the first news about new products has already begun to arrive

KRET will present the latest navigation system for light helicopters at the Army Forum. 

The Radio-Electronic Technologists Concern (KRET) of Rostec State Corporation will present for the first time at the Army-2021 forum a new SNV 1a navigation system for light helicopters. This was reported to journalists on Monday in the press service of KRET.

The development of the Ramenskoye Instrument-making Plant (part of KRET) is characterized by a combination of high accuracy with small dimensions and weight of the product. "In addition to high accuracy, weight and dimensions are important avionics parameters. Reducing the size and weight of navigation devices while maintaining quality and reliability is one of the tasks facing developers when creating competitive aviation equipment" – the press service quotes the words of KRET General Director Nikolay Kolesov.

In addition, the concern will present at the forum devices that provide the ability to control the helicopter using instruments. The navigation information generation unit BFNI-1 and the multifunctional indicator IM-23 developed by the Ulyanovsk Instrument Design Bureau provide pilots with comprehensive information about the flight situation, help in navigation and aircraft management, guarantee intelligent support and warning about external threats.

During the forum this year, KRET will present about 140 exhibits, including new navigation systems, flight support systems, on-board computing systems, as well as a weather station for use in the Arctic and 20 models of Tiokraft air purifiers, five of which will be presented for the first time.

Uralvagonzavod will show the modernization potential of its vehicles at Army 2021.

The T-90MS and BMPT-72 tanks created at the Ural Transport Engineering Design Bureau are successful upgrades of the T-90S and T-72 tanks, respectively. They clearly demonstrate how to extend the active and efficient operation of this special equipment with the greatest benefit and at the lowest cost. The large modernization potential of the vehicles makes it possible to improve their design based on modern requirements and offer the customer a new combat unit with increased capabilities or transformed to meet specified tasks.

At the Army 2021 forum, for example, the T-90MS will be presented with a highly automated combat module, which is equipped with a multispectral gunner's sight and a commander's panoramic sight. This allows the commander not only to get more information about the situation, but also to control the armament of the combat vehicle.

To destroy the enemy's tank-dangerous manpower, Tagil designers have laid down a large ammunition load in the BMPT-72, including shrapnel shells, and the large aiming angles of the product's automatic cannons make it possible to hit targets on the upper floors of buildings, fire at low-flying aerial targets such as UAVs. One BMPT can easily replace two infantry fighting vehicles and a motorized rifle platoon.

T-90MS and BMPT-72, like all UVZ armored vehicles, have phenomenal reliability, high security and maneuverability. Their advantages also include excellent maintainability.

Before being presented to the guests and participants of the forum, the formidable combat vehicles underwent a special technical inspection in the company's assembly shop. Then they were washed and painted in the paint-delivery department. According to special drawings, a pattern of camouflage spots was applied.

The tanks were sent to Kubinka. Already on the spot, Uralvagonzavod specialists will bring them from transport to combat condition.

In addition, an exhibition dedicated to the anniversary of Uralvagonzavod will be presented at the UVZ Group stand. On October 11, the company will celebrate its 85th anniversary. Historical and modern photos will tell you about the formation and development of mechanical engineering in Nizhny Tagil.

Il-114-300 aircraft banned from flying to Kubinka. 

The Il-114-300 passenger plane will remain at the Ramenskoye airfield in Zhukovsky, and its participation in the Army-2021 forum, as previously planned, is questionable. Due to the crash of the first prototype LVTS Il-112V on August 17, the Il-114-300 flight to Kubinka is prohibited. The reason for this decision was the use of TV7-117ST engines on both aircraft.

"One of the possible causes of the Il-112V crash is now being considered an engine problem. Since the Il-114 aircraft uses the same TV7-117ST engines in their civilian version, it was decided to ban the Il-114-300 aircraft from Zhukovsky airfield to Kubinka to participate in the Army-2021 forum until the causes of the crash with the military transport aircraft are clarified" – the source said.

The Il-112V light military transport aircraft is equipped with two TV7-117ST turboprop engines. The Il-114-300 short-haul passenger aircraft uses a civilian version of the TV7-117ST-01 engines.

Both aircraft were supposed to take part in the International Military-Technical Forum "Army-2021", which will be held from August 22 to 28 in Kubinka near Moscow.

Previously planned by the organizers of the MAKS-2021 Aerospace Salon, the participation of the Il-112V LVTS in demonstration flights was canceled, the aircraft remained in Voronezh on VASO until August 13, when the flight to Zhukovsky was completed. The reasons for the cancellation of the participation of the Armed Forces in the air show were not given.

Rostec to present Penicillin export complex at Army 2021.

Roselektronika Holding of Rostec State Corporation will for the first time present the Penicillin sound and thermal exploration complex in an export version at the Army-2021 forum. Depending on the design, the system can detect targets at a distance of up to 38 km. The minimum deployment time to the combat position is 20 minutes.

"Penicillin" is designed for reconnaissance of firing positions of artillery pieces, mortars, multiple launch rocket systems and launching positions of enemy anti-aircraft and tactical missiles, while simultaneously servicing the firing of its own artillery.

"Unlike most similar systems, Penicillin detects enemy artillery not by using radar, but thanks to a new principle of combining thermal and sound reconnaissance, which makes it impossible to suppress it electronically. The complex captures acoustic and thermal signals from shots and explosions, gives out the exact coordinates of the location of guns and plots them on an electronic map. The time to get coordinates from a single target does not exceed 5 seconds" – said Bekhan Ozdoev, Industrial Director of Rostec.

The complex consists of two vehicles on a KAMAZ chassis: a sound-measuring vehicle and a sound-thermal reconnaissance vehicle. Depending on the delivery option, the complex can include from two (one car of each type) to six units of equipment.

"Penicillin" has successfully passed state tests and is already being delivered to the Russian army. Together with Rosoboronexport, we are currently negotiating with several potential foreign customers, including operators of Post-3M radio intelligence stations. As part of the forum, we plan to hold several presentations of the complex and demonstrate its work" – said Vyacheslav Mikheev, General Director of Vega Concern.

As part of Roselektronika, the complex is developed and manufactured by the Vega Concern's enterprise, the Vector Research Institute.
