In Ukraine, showed the accuracy of the Neptune missile

43

In Ukraine, regular combat tests of the anti-ship missile system 360 MC “Neptune” were conducted. During the firing, the fired projectile overcame a difficult route and successfully hit a floating target.

According to data published by Defense Express, targets placed on a floating barge were at a distance of about 100 km. A shell fired from 360 Neptune MCs overcame the programmed route through the given coordinates and hit the target precisely. During the tests, the missile was accompanied by two Su-27 interceptors.



Recall that the aforementioned coastal missile system is produced by the Ukrainian company Luch. The installation is equipped with subsonic low-altitude cruise missiles R-360, which are capable of covering a distance of up to 300 km, and destroy watercraft with a displacement of up to 5 thousand tons. At the same time, the developer claims that these shells can be successfully used for ground targets.


R-360 is based on the Soviet X-35 missile. The first tests of the anti-ship complex took place in the spring of 2016. In the press, he is often called the “Destroyer of the Crimean Bridge”, since in 2019, the former head of the (NSDC) of Ukraine, Alexander Turchinov, said that the crossing could be destroyed by the Neptunes in a few minutes.

      - No, well, but ... actually ... - the accuracy of the hit was ... - The missile really hit the target ... - But was it programmed for detonation and was there any explosive at all ... - this a completely different story ...
      - By the way ... - during the Falklands War, the British destroyer URO Sheffield was sunk by the Exocet missile ... - The Exocet missile then hit the British newest destroyer and ... and did not explode, but simply pierced the hull ship; caused huge damage and caused a fire ... - And the British failed to save their ship ...

        And what is the question at all? Do you think any test run should end in an explosion? What for? If the emphasis of tests is on the operation of the guidance system, then there is more likely a mass-dimensional mock-up of warheads, maybe some kind of additional telemetry.

          Now, thanks to you, Humanity knows this!

          Why is it thanks to me? Information in free access, in order to avoid claims of bias, the publication "Observer" Ukraine.

          The Neptune cruise missile has a new combined active radar dual-band homing head, which was created at Radionics. .....
          Range Search Area - from 100 m to 50 km......
          Flight mission for rocket formed by data from an autonomous target designation source.
          As for target designation for the missile system, then for the coastal mobile version, the concept of diversity detection / target designation and target destruction means is being implemented .....

          Among other things bet is on creating a system illumination of the situation in marine areas using both proven and new technological solutions.

          In order not to go into details ahead of time, I will cite the words of the Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine in an interview with Defense Express magazine:

          «to create a system observation and control of the situation in the water area of ​​both the Black and Azov Seas purchase expected a new generation of marine radar stations - to monitor the surface situation, detect targets and determine their coordinates.

          They are engaged in the development of the coastal complex, there is, of course, the prospect of installation on ships and, possibly, on aircraft, but the issue of target designation does not go away. Look at the payroll of the Ukrainian fleet, how many applicants there are for "modernization". In terms of weight and dimensions, this is an approximate analogue of our "Uranus", perhaps they will find afloat something similar to the MRK of project 1234 "Gadfly", look at the photo, see a place to install a suitable radar? Can you tell us about its creation and operation? I don't think it's worth going deeper in the direction of aviation, it's not better there.
          I am not even a specialist in the fleet, but even to me it is obvious that they do not have a guidance system.
          If there is other information, share, I will be grateful. hi

          By the way .. After all, you probably also know what Father Barlaam was talking about with Grishka the impostor on the Lithuanian border?

            There are various options, for example, inertial, with the inclusion of an active radar at a certain point and further search. And how do we fly anti-ship missiles at a horizontal range? Also using an autonomous target designation source? The laws of physics are one for all. Only, if suddenly the Duma, or the Rada, any of them cancel? A purely joke .... Probably ....

              The laws of physics apply to our anti-ship missiles. For a long range, they also need target designation.

              Since the flight time of a missile over a long range is significant, and the target may go beyond the detection radius of the GOS missile, the complex needs accurate target designation carried out by the Aviation Complex "Success" from Tu-95RC or Ka-25TS helicopters, or the space reconnaissance and target designation complex ICRC "Legend" [note 3] A missile can also be used to destroy ground targets

              This is from Wikipedia, about the Granit anti-ship missile system.
              In general, "Neptune" cannot fly further than 100-120 km. A rare bird will fly to the middle of the Dnieper ... Karma, probably. winked

                      But they won’t turn off the Russians?

                      The Russian X-35U has all been worked out for a long time. There were launches from airplanes, helicopters, DBK Ball, ships, everything is checked there and target designation works. X-35U adopted. It was used in the same Syria.

                      For the first time, Ukrainian Neptune was able to hit a static naval target, something that had not previously been followed by it, that is, there is still to experience and experience, although there is certainly progress. In addition, the RK-360MTs so far has not yet acquired a full-fledged radar for detection and target designation. That is, not everything is ready and not everything is tested.

                      ... developed in Ukraine "RCC, launched from the TPK from the S-300 air defense system, nevertheless stuck into the floating net.

                      Yes, this "Neptune" did not carry a warhead.

                      Yes, the rocket was never "taught" in the last flight section to perform anti-aircraft maneuver, which made the subsonic anti-ship missile system in a combat situation extremely vulnerable to the impact of enemy air defense systems.

                      Yes, the RK-360MTs so far has not yet acquired a full-fledged radar for detection and target designation.

                      Yes, the target used by Neptune to shoot from Alibey was static.

                      Yes, the height of the freeboard of the Ukrainian lighter is much greater than that of the standard sailboats used in the Russian Navy, and the Neptune ARLGSN simply could not help but capture such a target.

                      Yes, and yes again. But the "Neptune" was still able to hit the naval target for the FIRST TIME, and this finally opened the way for Korostylev's brainchild to be adopted.

      From what I saw on the video, it does not follow that the missile hit the target. At the final stage of the flight, an optical or radar guidance system should be included. Neptune has, it seems, a radar. The signal is reflected from the hull and the rocket must enter the hull. And these nets are set to determine the deviation in the case of a small miss.
      Here is the message from the main bunker:

      Today finished shooting the first three products designed to hit the target. They shot at a distance of about one hundred kilometers. We got positive hit results. I welcome all our teams that have put a lot of work into this excellent technical victory. I hope that our work will end soon with the adoption of this Neptune complex, ”Oleg Petrovich Korostelev, general designer and director of the Luch State Concern Design Bureau, summed up the test results.

      Shchiry Ukrainian Oleg Korostelev, like no one else, is interested in praising his creation. Everyone will see in this panegyric whatever they want.
      But, objectively, I see that three missiles flew about 100 km each. The result shown is probably the best. The rocket pierced the net quite close to the target body. However, the case did not hurt. This is the best result.
      Guidance on the march - inertial with GPS correction. How our EW tools relate to GPS correction, you can not tell. A rocket can easily fly back.

And it is said to exalt the "New Correct Course of Ukraine" towards European integration. Here, they say. what we are! What actually happened? Deindustrialization of Ukraine.

That is, all the branches of the Ukrainian economy, thanks to which your country occupied the first places in the world, have been destroyed in your country.
