7 promising military inventions of Russian defense

At the International Creative Day exhibition organized by the Russian Ministry of Defense in October 2015, the country's weapons manufacturers introduced new weapons with high applicability and could completely become popular in the future.

Here are the valuable and promising inventions of the Russian defense industry, compiled and introduced by RBTH news website:

1. Smart bomb

This type of bomb is called KAB-500S-E.

This type of bomb oriented with great destructive power called KAB-500S-E weighs nearly half a ton (explaining the number 500) and is being used by the Russian Air Force in attacks on military targets in Syria. KAB-500S-E is equipped with satellite navigation device to ensure the bomb will reach the right target with the highest accuracy.

2. Tiltrotors unmanned aircraft

The aircraft is equipped with a hybrid engine, which can accelerate up to 500 km / h.

Helicopters' new unmanned aircraft are equipped with hybrid engines and are capable of accelerating to nearly 500 km / h. The potential customers of this type of aircraft will not only be army units, but also naval forces, as it can take off from conventional warships.

3. Armored vehicles against landmines and anti-ambush (MRAP)

This vehicle is equipped with a two-layer protection system.

The armored vehicle Tayfunyonok belongs to the Typhoon family, a line of anti-mine armored vehicles and multi-purpose anti-ambush vehicles, which are being used to protect detection equipment and vehicles, as well as command and support vehicles. when needed. This vehicle is equipped with a two-layer protection system, 4-wheel drive system KAMAZ-53949 and is capable of reaching a maximum speed of more than 100km / h.

5. Battery anti-freezing for tanks

At the exhibition, Russian arms manufacturers introduced an uncoated lead-acid battery, designed to operate under cold weather to ensure the engine of any type of vehicle and vehicle cover. Any steel can start in extreme conditions. A special ultrasonic transmitter inside the battery will help "defrost" electrolytes and help increase battery capacity, so starting a tank in the Arctic is no longer a problem.

6. Armor for dogs

Dog armor is similar in structure to human armor.

Although dogs have long been trained into special forces (and training them to fight costs a lot), only now are four-legged fighters interested in protecting those weapons. battlefield. Designed by Nord Company, dog armor is similar to human armor: with humans, armor protects the chest and back, and with dogs the neck and chest. Nord has introduced various models with different sizes, volumes and protection levels for different breeds of dogs.

7. Light interference system

This system was created to support patrol boats and hydrofoils.

In order to support patrol boats and hydrofoils, United Instrument Manufacturing Corporation (UIMC) brought an exhibition of a visual interference device called Grach (Russian for "root"). With the ability to emit high intensity light, Grach can disable optical sensors and cause temporary blindness to the eye, enabling ships to land.

A special feature of this weapon, as the manufacturer emphasizes, is its ability to attack without damage and small size, so Grach will be suitable for all types of warships. Grach can also be used to combat piracy or to prevent intruders, and therefore this unique device is likely to be exported to many countries.
