Domestic weapons and military equipment. Against Syria and Iran: the United States bought a radar station in Ukraine Range detection of low-flying targets with ESR = 1 sq.m



Yesterday it became known that Ukraine had supplied the United States of America with a 36D6M radar station, which is intended, in particular, for detecting low-flying air targets. Experts believe that the United States needed the Ukrainian radar system in connection with the possible appearance of a similar complex in service in Iran.

As a source close to Kommersant told state company Ukrspetsexport, Ukraine supplied one 36D6M radar station to the USA, produced by the Iskra research and production complex (Zaporozhye). Confirm or deny this information It didn’t work out at Ukrspetsexport yesterday - CEO Sergei Bondarchuk declined to comment to the company, suggesting that they send an official request. At the time of going to press, Kommersant had not received a response to it.

Radar 36D6M(according to NATO specifications - "Tin Shield") - a mobile three-dimensional airspace surveillance radar used in modern automated systems ah air defense control (ACS) and anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM) to detect, including low-flying air targets covered by active, passive and combined interference. The radar station carries out an initial review, determines nationality, automatically tracks targets, and issues target designation to command post Air defense air defense system, if necessary, operates in autonomous control point mode. The instrumental range of the complex is 360 km.

Currently, such stations are in service with Slovakia, Bulgaria, Hungary and Greece - all of these states are NATO members. It should be noted that the 36D6M radar is a domestic modification of the serial surveillance radar that is part of the S-300 air defense system, previously supplied to the USSR under the Warsaw Pact. Now the S-300 is sold, in particular, by Russia.

As arms expert Alexander Tabunets told Kommersant, the United States traditionally collects weapons from the former USSR to develop systems to counter them. “As you know, elements of the three hundredth complex (S-300.-Kommersant air defense system) were once sold to the United States by personal order of Russian President Boris Yeltsin, and later part of the system was supplied to the States from Belarus,” said Mr. Tabunets. The current delivery, according to the expert, may complete the collection components S-300 air defense system. American experts are eager to study the S-300, and this is explained by the fact that the United States fears the appearance of the S-300 system in service with the Islamic Republic of Iran.

It is noteworthy that previously information about possible deliveries appeared repeatedly Russian Federation similar complexes to Iran. At the end of 2007, Iranian Defense Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar reported that, as part of an agreement previously concluded with Russia, the Islamic Republic would receive these systems. In mid-September this year, the general director of the Russian state intermediary for the export and import of arms - Rosoboronexport - Anatoly Isaikin said that Russia is discussing with Iran the issues of supplying defense systems, in particular air defense systems. Mr. Isaikin also recalled that in relation to Iran there are no bans on the supply of defensive systems, including air defense systems and other air defense missile systems.

Member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Issues national security and defense Anatoly Kinakh (Party of Regions) does not see any crime in the possible supply of domestic US radar. “If only it (the supply - Kommersant) complies with national legislation and international standards,” Mr. Kinakh told Kommersant. “If this is so, then our defense-industrial complex is still at its best, and Ukraine rightfully occupies a high position in the arms market ".

Press digest for November 21, 2008 |

Three modernized radars 36D6-M1 and 79K6 produced by Zaporizhzhya NPK Iskra were transferred to the Ukrainian Armed Forces June 23rd, 2018

The original was taken from a colleague diana_mihailova c Three modernized radars 36D6-M1 and 79K6 produced by the Zaporizhzhya NPK "Iskra" were transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine

The President [of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko] handed over new radar stations to the radio engineering brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The equipment was created by employees of the Zaporozhye scientific and production complex "Iskra"

Some products were never shown to journalists - their production is secret. But serial production is promised to begin in 2019.

It’s just that three modernized radar stations left the enterprise for different units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The president personally presented certificates for equipment to the air defense troops. Mobile systems are designed to detect targets at low and medium altitudes.

For the period from 2014 to 2017. the enterprise produced and put into operation 32 units of military equipment, which is in demand in Ukraine and abroad. As of May 2018, the number of employees of NPK Iskra is 3 thousand 253 people.

Today, the Zaporozhye enterprise, in the presence of the president, handed over radar stations to Ukrainian fighters, which are designed to control airspace. Among the transferred radar stations is one of the latest developments of Iskra - 79K6, which is already used in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This is a movable three-coordinate all-round radar station that allows you to detect air targets at a distance of up to 400 km, provide their coordinates to air defense systems for immediate response and destruction of the enemy.

The military also received upgraded 36D6 radars, which are designed to detect targets at low and medium altitudes under the influence of active and passive obstacles with the issuance of coordinate and route information.

In turn, the head of state presented three certificates of compliance to the 1st, 14th and 138th radio engineering brigades Air Force APU.

Transfer of the certificate to the mobile three-dimensional radar 36D6-M1

Also, the Iskra production complex presented new developments that should in the future strengthen the defense capability of the Armed Forces.

“Today, many things, including at Iskra, are happening with the words “for the first time.” For the first time, the Ukroboronprom concern has the opportunity due to own funds develop prototypes. For the first time, factories are operating in two shifts. For the first time, the army even makes an advance payment for products delivered to mass production, and for the first time the Ukrainian defense industry is winning very tough competition,” said Petro Poroshenko.

Radar station 36D6-M

36D6-M is a mobile three-dimensional airspace surveillance radar designed for use in modern air defense systems and anti-aircraft missile systems.

This radar was developed at the Ukrainian enterprise Iskra in Zaporozhye. KP "Iskra" is both a design bureau and an electrical machine-building plant, united by one brand. The main purpose of the 36D6-M radar developed at this plant is the detection of low-flying air targets covered by active and passive interference, as well as air traffic control for military and civil aviation. The new radar station 36D6-M was demonstrated at international exhibition weapons and military equipment in Abu Dhabi.

The 36D6-M radar is capable of performing an initial survey, determining the nationality of an object, automatically tracking targets, identifying the most dangerous target, issuing target designations to the air defense command post of an air defense system, and also, if necessary, working in autonomous control point mode.

The main advantages of 36D6-M include:
-high probability of detecting small objects and objects that move tangentially at low speeds;
-accuracy of coordinate measurements;
- the ability to determine bearings to active noise jammers;
-automatic correlation of echo signals with response signals from the built-in equipment for identifying nationality;
-the ability to transmit information over narrowband communication channels;
-high transmitter stability with true coherence;
- a unique Doppler system for auto-detection of moving objects.

At the end of last year, the Pentagon received from Ukraine a radar station (radar), developed in the USSR. The state enterprise “Foreign Trade Company “Progress” delivered on December 7 to the U.S. division. Army Contracting Command (ACC) 36D6M radar for UAH 212 million. (RUB 504 million). Such data is contained in the customs declaration published on the Importgenius website, which tracks export and import transactions.

The delivery included a radar station, a radar set, assembled on the basis of two KRAZ vehicles, a semi-trailer and a trailer. The cargo also consisted of a set of cable networks for the power plant and a set of remote workstations.

Defense Blog reported that the Ukrainian “Innovative Technologies Company” unsuccessfully tried to block the delivery of 36D6M1−1. She sued Progress for copyright infringement and non-payment of remuneration for the technology for detecting small targets 36D6M1-1. Previously, it could only detect large objects, including aircraft.

The 36D6M radar is produced by the Zaporozhye research and production complex "Iskra", which over almost 60 years of existence has produced more than six thousand radar stations and was one of the main manufacturers of such equipment in the USSR.

The 36D6M radar itself is a mobile three-coordinate all-round radar for identifying and recognizing targets at low and medium altitudes under the influence of active and passive interference with the output of coordinates and route information. It usually works as part of modern automated air defense systems and for issuing target designations anti-aircraft missile systems. For example, S-300.

I have already written about the supply and maintenance by Ukraine of Su-27 fighters to the United States, which are used in training battles with American combat aircraft. The supplied radar can also be used in training battles as an enemy weapon and calculate its capabilities.

Military expert Yuri Lyamin believes that the purchase of radar in Ukraine cannot, for example, be connected with the Russian air defense group in Syria, since, as far as is known, the most modern systems Air defense and there are no radars of the 36D6 family. “Another thing is that the radars of the 35D6\36D6 family remain quite common both in Russia and in a number of other countries, since at one time they were purchased separately or additionally attached to the S-300PS, S-300PM, S-300PMU-1 air defense systems.” , says the expert.

It is worth noting that last year’s delivery of radar from Ukraine to the United States was not the only one. Ten years ago, Ukrainian media wrote that the 36D6 radar was sold to the US Army. This information is confirmed by a customs declaration from Importgenius, dated June last year. Then the Ukrainian state-owned enterprise Progress supplied the Air Force Materiel Command (FMASO) with spare parts for the 36D6 radar in the amount of UAH 525 thousand. (RUB 1.25 million).

Back in 2008, it was assumed that the Americans could use the radar to develop reconnaissance techniques in the event of the appearance of the S-300 air defense system in the arsenal of the Iranian army and to counter them. As you know, in 2007, Russia entered into a contract with Iran for the supply of S-300 missile systems, but was forced to stop it due to sanctions. After the signing of the nuclear deal and the lifting of sanctions on Iran, the contract was completed in 2016 and the commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya air defense base in Iran Amir Farzad Ismaili announced in March 2017 about successful exercises using the S-300. “The S-300 is lethal for the enemy, since even small aircraft ballistic missiles, and cruise missiles cannot slip past it,” he said in an interview with Tasnim, talking about the test.

What the United States can prepare for by purchasing a radar station in Ukraine is active actions in Syria. After the United States launched a strike on Syria, Moscow said that Moscow now has no moral obligations not to supply the S-300 to Syria. “We had moral obligations, we promised not to do this about 10 years ago, in my opinion, at the request of our well-known partners,” the Russian Foreign Minister said in April Sergey Lavrov. - We took into account their argument that this could lead to destabilization of the situation, although the means are purely defensive. But now we have no such moral obligation.” Before this, the head of the Main operational management Colonel General of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces Sergey Rudskoy announced measures being considered by Moscow to strengthen the Syrian air defense system through the transfer of S-300 systems.

Moreover, the 36D6 radar is already operating in Syria and helps the government army shoot down missiles during Israeli airstrikes. Damascus managed to purchase several radar stations before 2011, when a full-scale war began in the country.
