Missile Complex Bending-C

Combat vehicle of the 9A332 rifle and anti-aircraft group on a vehicle ASN 233115 Tigr-M SpN. The launcher is in combat position.

Information about the development of a light self-propelled anti-aircraft missile system on a carrier in the form of the Tiger all-terrain vehicle in the 4 × 4 system using the solutions of the Gibka ship stand appeared several years ago. And a year ago, the first photos of the elements of such a set were published. However, only this year, at the Army-2017 International Military-Technical Forum in Moscow, Gibka-S was presented to the public for the first time in kind. Due to the similarity of the concept with the Polish set Poprad, it is worth taking a closer look at the new offer from KBM from Kolomna.

Protecting troops from air attack remains one of the priorities of the armed forces in the modern world, and with the advent of new threats, its importance is even greater. Most of the armed conflicts of the last quarter of a century were preceded or started by an air attack, or at least support by ground units or naval forces, from the very first minutes of ground attack or reconnaissance aircraft. Today, the terms "air agent" or "air attack agent" have a completely different meaning than half a century or even 25 years ago. Recently, this category has included only manned aircraft and helicopters, alternatively unmanned aerial vehicles - combat (cruise missiles) and reconnaissance - but with physical dimensions at least similar to classic aircraft. Today, the number and variety of types is still increasing, especially when it comes to drones, and some (micro category) are slightly larger than insects. They allow you to obtain information about the enemy, whose value in battle sometimes exceeds firepower and determines the success or failure of the battle, and are also increasingly becoming means of combat using portable outboard weapons. or attack the target, hitting it if the combat load is an integral part of the design. In most cases, micro- and mini-unmanned aerial vehicles, due to their physical characteristics - not only their size, but also the materials used in their construction - are difficult to detect using conventional radar and optoelectronic means. These factors, as well as a number of others, affect the price level of such devices, which is usually several orders of magnitude lower than a modern anti-aircraft guided missile. Countermeasures based on new physical principles of impact on the target (for example, lasers) will not reach the degree of technical perfection, efficiency and reliability for a long time, which makes them suitable for combat use, while anti-aircraft guns have a short range and low accuracy, hence low efficiency and, therefore, the only widely available means of combating small-sized drones remain short-range anti-aircraft missile systems of ultra-short-range air defense (VSHORAD). Optimal, in terms of the size of the detonation zone, efficiency and flexibility of use, if information is available about the location of the target, are MANPADS of the VSHORAD category - Manportable Air Defense System (MANPADS). However, the factors limiting their use are: limited tactical mobility arising from the very principle of construction and, no less important, the ability to "connect" to a wider network of automated exchange of tactical information.

PPP designers all over the world spend a lot of effort on improving their products in these areas - placing kits or at least the operators themselves with a portable kit on vehicles and providing them with the most detailed and up-to-date information. about the air situation.
