How does the Russian system of "Perimeter" Bashny.Net

The main deterrent to the Third World War is the presence of Russian system, which allows to put retaliatory nuclear strike even if the complete destruction of command posts and communication lines SRF. It is called "Perimeter" in the United States it was called «Dead hand»
"Perimeter" is intended for automatic control of a massive nuclear strike, and is an alternative to the command system of nuclear forces. The main control system of strategic missiles called "Kazbek" - it is known for the subscriber complex "Cheget" or "nuclear suitcase».





Our train
Develop a system of guaranteed retaliatory strike began at the height of the "cold war", when it became clear that the continually evolving electronic warfare in the near future will be able to block the regular channels control the strategic nuclear forces. It took a backup communication method that guarantees to bring teams launchers.
The idea to use as a coherent command rocket equipped with a powerful radio devices. One Flew over the Soviet Union, such a missile would transmit the command to launch missiles not only in the Strategic Missile Forces command posts of the compounds, but also directly to the launchers. August 30, 1974 closed by government decree USSR № 695-227 Development of the system was entrusted to CB "Southern" in Dnepropetrovsk, is engaged in the creation of intercontinental ballistic missiles.
The basis of the product took UR-100UTTH (NATO Spanker, trotter). Special head part with a transmitter designed at the Leningrad Polytechnic Institute, and manufactured its Orenburg NGO "Arrow". For aiming missiles at an azimuth using a fully autonomous system with automatic gyrocompass and quantum optical gyro. It can calculate the direction of flight in the process of setting missiles on combat duty and keep it even in the event of a nuclear impact on the launcher.
Flight tests began in 1979, the first launch of the transmitter has been successfully performed on December 26. Tests confirmed the successful interaction of all components of the "Perimeter" and the ability of the head of the missile command to withstand the desired trajectory - its top is at the height of 4000 meters at a distance of 4,500 kilometers.
In November 1984, launched from the missile command Polotsk gave the team a silo launcher of ICBMs RS-20 (SS-18 Satan) in Baikonur. "Satan" was launched, and after working at all levels was recorded entering the head part in a given square on the Kamchatka Kura test site. In January 1985, the "Perimeter" stood on alert. Since then, the system is not just upgraded, now as a team using modern ICBM missiles.



Arise, great country
The system is commanding ballistic missiles. Fly they are not the enemy, and of Russia, instead of thermonuclear warheads in their head parts are transmitters sending out a command to start all available combat missiles: in mines, aircraft, submarines, and ground mobile complexes. Those receivers are equipped with teams and start. The system is fully automated and the human factor in its work is excluded or minimized.
The decision to launch missiles command takes an autonomous control-command system - a complex software system based on artificial intelligence. It receives and analyzes a wide variety of information: on seismic activity and radiation, atmospheric pressure, the intensity of the radio frequencies in the military, controls the telemetry from the monitoring data of the Strategic Missile Forces and missile warning.
Having found, for example, multiple point sources of powerful ionizing and electromagnetic radiation, and compared them with data on seismic disturbances in the same coordinates, the system finds a massive nuclear strike. In this case, "Perimeter" can trigger retaliation even bypassing "Kazbek».
Another option - received from the EWS information on missile launches from the territories of other countries, the government takes the "Perimeter" in battle mode. If after some time not followed by the trip command, the system will begin to launch rockets. This solution eliminates the human factor and to ensure a retaliatory strike even in the complete destruction of the command and launch the calculations.



Four "if»
One of the developers of "perimeter" Vladimir Yarynich admitted that he does not know a reliable way to bring the system out of action. Control and command system, its sensors and missiles are designed to work in a nuclear attack.
In peacetime, the "Perimeter" is at rest - we can say, "dormant" - without ceasing, however, to analyze incoming information. When translating in battle mode or receiving an alarm signal from the EWS, the Strategic Missile Forces and other systems run network monitoring sensors to detect signs of nuclear explosions.
Before starting the algorithm retaliation "Perimeter" examines the presence of the four conditions. First, whether there was a nuclear attack. It then examines the link with the General Staff - if there is a connection, the system is switched off. If the General Staff does not respond, "Perimeter" requests "Kazbek". If there are silent, artificial intelligence conveys the right decision to any person in the command bunker. And only after that starts to act.
The creation of the NATO nuclear strike, acting without a team man called immoral. Meanwhile, a similar complex there is the United States.
