During the exercises in Belarus, the Russian army spends ammunition very economically

February 13 2022 6

Joint Russian-Belarusian exercises "Allied Resolve-2022" are being held in Belarus. A video was published on the Web showing the use of the MLRS 9K57 "Hurricane" of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and 9K58 "Smerch" of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Belarus at the Osipovichsky training ground (military unit 12147) in the Mogilev region. However, especially attentive users noticed that the Russian army men spend ammunition very economically compared to their Belarusian counterparts, who, however, also did not demonstrate "generosity".

First, the footage shows one rocket artillery battalion of the Russian Hurricanes, consisting of eight launchers, located at the firing line. The command is given to hit the target, but the shot is carried out by only one installation. Moreover, the same shot is shown from different angles. All other launchers did not open fire.

In the case of the Belarusian "Tornados", only two launchers open fire. They release only a few ammunition, which are filmed from different video cameras.

Obviously, the Russian military is saving ammunition, because earlier in such exercises, MLRS covered targets with heavy fire, using all the available ammunition.

For example, this was the case when the artillerymen of the 2nd Combined Arms Army of the Central Military District carried out live firing from the MLRS at the Totsk training ground in the Orenburg region in August 2018.

And this is what a blow from the Hurricanes looked like during the Vostok-2018 exercises - large-scale combined-arms maneuvers of the RF Armed Forces.

More footage of the exercises of artillerymen of the Central Military District with the involvement of the crews of self-propelled guns "Msta-S" and MLRS "Hurricane".

And in terms of torpedo ammunition, there is a solid savings. A contract was signed with the Dagdiesel plant for only 73 UET-1 torpedoes, and only for practical products!

  Are you redistributing without reflecting again?
  Torpedo testing was completed in February 2020. We signed a contract for the production of 73 pieces.
  
  By 2023, the torpedo manufacturer Dagdiesel is to supply the fleet with 73 UET-1 torpedoes. The cost of the contract with the Ministry of Defense is 7,2 billion rubles.

  The production is new, for 2023 there will obviously be a different contract. Given the cost of the product, about 100 million rubles, it is probably worth working on reducing the cost of products.
  Where did you get the information that all the torpedoes produced are practical, that is, "with a blank" instead of a warhead, I won't even ask. I suspect that you will limit yourself to the usual irrigation of fan blades
  Take care of yourself. Excess bile is not very helpful. This link is especially for you, no thanks

    There is only this contract, for 73 torpedoes. About the next only dreams or speculation. In the practical charging compartment of the torpedo, recording equipment and sensors. At the TTB (torpedo-technical bases), at the arsenals, for starters, practical products are received. For training the personnel of the BCH-3 and ship combat crews. To prepare for the further operation of combat torpedoes. Blanks mock-ups are used for overall weight tests of torpedo-loading devices of ships. You heard the ringing, but you don't know where it is.

      The contract is valid until 2023. Are you saying there won't be a next one? Do you have such information or is it your dreams and conjectures?

      Decided to be smart? What is there instead of the warhead in this case is not important. You are essentially saying that torpedoes are not suitable for combat use, only training ones. So where does the information come from? Choke on your fecal bile

        The budget situation does not condone the purchase of torpedoes in the required quantities. Plus, there is a shortage of qualified corps turners. The next one may not be. An example is fussing with archival anti-mine equipment. The drastic exclusion of the most important weapons, at the last moment, before the signing of the contract. For current stocks, two rounds of ammunition per carrier are taken into account. 24 torpedoes for a diesel boat, and 45 torpedoes for a multipurpose nuclear boat, or 20 for SSBNs. There are also operational reserves, but it is permissible to have decommissioned torpedoes in their composition. not included in the current ammunition of the ships, the agreed order of the fleet commander. BUT no more than 20%. For example, 53-38 torpedoes were in stock until 1985. As for speculation, read carefully the Krasnaya Zvezda newspaper on this topic. Confidentially, for a plentiful dastarkhan, talk with military representatives, military personnel and employees of mine depots, torpedo factories, torpedo technical bases. Perhaps your faith in mine-torpedo braces will be shaken. Keep your courage.
        
        What is there instead of the warhead in this case is not important
        
        Very important. The ship's commander fires torpedoes not just anywhere, but at the intended target. To find out how the torpedo went, how the homing equipment worked, how the passive and active guidance channels worked, how the proximity fuse worked, registering devices are installed. After firing, the practical charging compartment is opened, the registration is evaluated. Based on the data received, the crew receives an assessment. Try to carefully watch the Zvezda TV channel, talk with submariners, with experienced anti-submarine men. Enlighten yourself than repeat other people's slogans.

They do it right. It is not practical to simply scatter useful "pieces of iron" capable of processing a hectare of Svidomites into compost. Suddenly come in handy.
