Assault detachments of the Russian Armed Forces will be covered from drone attacks by separate air defense units

26

The command of the Russian Armed Forces has found a solution to cover assault units from many drones launched by the enemy. The enemy's active use of drones often makes it difficult for our frontline units to move forward, and this problem has long required solutions.

As reported "News" with reference to sources in the Russian Ministry of Defense, the formation of air defense units as part of assault units is already underway. They will provide cover for fighters not only from UAVs, but also from multiple launch rocket systems. For this purpose, the Tor and Gibka complexes will be transferred to the new units.”



The experts interviewed believe that the innovation will help to minimize or completely avoid losses among Russian attack aircraft during attacks on enemy positions. The efficiency of the assault squads will also increase.

When an assault on a fortified area is underway, the enemy can use various means to disrupt it. These could be air attack weapons, in particular an FPV drone. It’s clear that you can’t really shoot at such targets with a MANPADS; it has its limitations. But when working with complexes that track many targets, there is a guarantee that you will have minimal or no losses from enemy attacks

– Izvestia quotes the opinion of expert Alexei Leonkov.

    God willing, God willing. Finally, we will storm and advance without losses.

      It took two years for the command of the Russian Armed Forces to find what was lying on the surface.

        Yes, "Noodles" is everything! Putin was finally informed that the anti-drone fight on the LBS is a complete ass, so the “generals” began to cover their ass, supposedly the problem was solved.
        As with the "Coalition", not a single installation has yet arrived at the front!!!

    There are vague doubts that someone will drag a torus or shell to shoot at FPV drones.
    Moreover, such systems themselves are tasty targets for them (we have a lot of videos with lancets against air defense systems; Kyiv also has its own videos).
    Not to mention artillery. For her, such an air defense system will be target number 1.

    Z.Y. : I suspect the article is a continuation of the topic with the new Mikhailovka.
    SAMs and jammers are good, of course, but expensive and technologically advanced.
    But I heard once in the 19th century, or at the beginning of the 20th, that such a thing as a smoke screen was invented.
    And not even a special one that says thermal imagers and laser target designation, but the most ordinary one.

    Z.Y. 2: active defense systems have the characteristics of not only slow drones, but even shoot down anti-tank guns. And it seemed like the TV was actively telling us how advanced they are.

    Z.Y. 3: Even passive boxes with plastid should be able to save from blanks from RPGs, which are usually attached to the drone.
    If, of course, they are on the tank.
    And if there are, they are not empty.

    But in general, yes.
    Placing smokes or all sorts of blocks with plastid is just cheap and boring.
    The electorate will not appreciate it.
    Therefore, it is better to let tanks ride without dynamic protection, but with air defense systems nearby.
    Until the air defense systems run out.

      Yes, the article is also a smokescreen. They will write along and across and backwards and vice versa in order to misinform the enemy. And smoke, if done correctly, is good.

      Zuko, you are our master!

      Even passive boxes with plastid should be able to save you from blanks from RPGs, which are usually attached to a drone.

      FPV is hitting the roof!!!! Do you understand this? There is a thickness of 40-60 mm of homogeneous armor! The roof of the transmission compartment is even thinner. Welcome!

    As Izvestia reports, citing sources in the Russian Ministry of Defense, the formation of air defense units as part of assault units already is coming.

    Already - there is some kind of intrigue in this... recourse

      and what will a blow to Romania give other than the hooting of blessed characters? Well, and the activation of Article 5 (if I’m not mistaken) of the NATO Charter...

      with the same success you can sandal your Tallinn...

      Disinfo,

      We have Kords on the boats and 30mm guns. But problem is to detect UAVs early but not late.

        This is about the question of how our people talk about the idiocy of the Okrinsky gunmen who shoot down missiles over residential buildings, we are the same idiots

        It is much more honorable to suffer from a downed drone than from a direct hit, this explains the whole stage of the movement with drones, and then who will figure out what caused the next oil refinery to catch fire, the main thing is to report that everything was shot down.

    When air defense missiles and UAV missiles explode above the attack group’s head, what kind of security is there?

    these Torahs themselves will be targets, they will be destroyed first of all, so the General Staff thought for a long time and, as they say, the mountain gave birth to a mouse, the parquet generals were not put in their positions to think, they are needed to click their heels and take the show

    For this purpose, the Tor and Gibka complexes will be transferred to the new units.”

    And from which units will the “TOR” and “Gibka” air defense systems be taken and transferred to the assault units?
    For example, the "TOR" air defense system is redundant to provide air defense for an assault battalion, and the Ministry of Defense does not have so many TORs, God forbid that the new divisions being formed in the TOR air defense division receive the TOR air defense systems, and not the old WASPs and IGLS .....

      May the “current” TORs and Gibki not solve the problems! If we could, we would have decided long ago! We need other..."specially anti-drone" means! In one of my recent comments I already talked about this and named some of these remedies as an example! We need a new air defense organization for advanced units, and new staff...!

    Why did they just start mass-producing bending? Or is this just another development under the slogan?

    Well, Leonkov is a distinguished expert. He has already predicted a lot of unrealistic things
