Iskander: anti-air defense missiles (8 pics + text) Bashny.Net

Now many people hear the buzzword around Iskander, not even imagining what it is) dust dispel ignorance.

High-precision operational-tactical missile complex land forces "Iskander-E" for the secretive preparation and application of effective missile strikes on especially important miniature and area targets in the depth of operational formation of the enemy: fire weapons (missiles, multiple rocket launcher systems, long-range artillery), aircraft and helicopter airfields, command posts and communications nodes, critical civilian infrastructure. The complex is set up as a result of the joint work group of research institutes, design bureaus and factories under the leadership of Machine Building Design Bureau (KBM Kolomna), known as a company-maker of missile systems "Point", "Oka". The launcher is designed CDB "Titan" (Volgograd), homing system - the Central Research Institute of Automatics and Hydraulics (Moscow).





Under the conditions of the INF Treaty of 1987 and the non-use of nuclear weapons in the theater to modern tactical systems presented a number of new requirements:

* Use only non-nuclear weapons;
* Ensure precision shooting accuracy;
* Management throughout the flight path;
* Wide range of effective combat equipment;
* Availability of complex automation systems and command and control information management system, including the preparation of standard information systems for correction and final guidance;
* The possibility of interconnecting with the global satellite navigation systems (GNSS - "Glonass", "NAVSTAR");
* The ability to defeat heavily defended purposes;
* Improving fire performance;
* The ability to effectively overcome the effects of air defense and missile defense;
* The possibility of destruction of moving targets.



To meet the above requirements established missile complex "Iskander-E". "Iskander-E" incorporates the best scientific, technical and design achievements in the field of tactical missiles and jointly implemented technical solutions, high combat effectiveness of a weapon entirely new generation , superior to their tactical and technical characteristics of existing RC "Scud-B", "Tochka-U", "Lance", "ATASMS", "Pluton" and others.



The main features of the Republic of Kazakhstan "Iskander-E":

* High-precision and effective engagement of various types of targets;
* The possibility of secretive preparation, alert and effective missile strikes;
* Automatic calculation and entry flight mission rocket launcher means;
* High probability of combat mission in the face of strong enemy opposition;
* High probability of trouble-free operation of a rocket in preparation for launch and in flight;
* High tactical maneuverability thanks to all-terrain military vehicles, mounted on four-wheel drive chassis,
* Strategic mobility due to transportability of machines all modes of transport, including transport aircraft;
* Automation of combat control missile units,
* Prompt processing and bring intelligence to the appropriate management levels;
* Long life and ease of use.



"Iskander-E" in their tactical and technical characteristics fully in line with the position of Control Regime non-proliferation of missile technology. This is the "weapon of deterrence" in local conflicts and in countries with limited living space - a strategic weapon. The structure of the complex, its management systems, automated command and control and information systems make it possible to respond quickly to new requirements without substantial revision of its combat vehicles and, therefore, guarantee a long life cycle.

In the west complex has received the designation SS-26.
