Description

The invention relates to the field of military equipment, and specifically to objects of armored vehicles, and can be used in the development of new models or upgrades.

Tanks are known, see "The Complete Encyclopedia of Tanks" - Minsk, Harvest LLC, 1998, containing hulls and towers, on which a gun is mounted as the main weapon, and machine guns as a secondary weapon and coaxial with the main weapon, as well as an anti-aircraft machine gun , which is usually located on a tower with the ability to fire a commander.

The experience of using tanks shows that with the increasing effectiveness of the tank on the battlefield, more and more diverse, fairly effective and well-defended means of fighting it appear (tanks, ATGMs (anti-tank guided missile), ATGMs (anti-tank guided missile), helicopters, airplanes, etc. .) and at the same time not in a single form. All of them are dangerous for the tank and can act simultaneously. At the same time, the number of portable anti-tank systems increased sharply, while their effectiveness and range of destruction of tanks increased. Therefore, machine guns mounted on a tank in modern conditions, as additional weapons, are not effective enough. At the moment, several directions are being considered to increase the protection of the tank from hand-held anti-tank weapons - this is the installation of additional weapons on the tank that is more effective than machine guns, the use of active protection systems, dynamic protection, etc. One of the most promising areas of increasing the protection of tanks and other armored vehicles from enemy tank forces armed with various portable anti-tank systems and hand-held anti-tank grenade launchers Ami, is the creation of a specialized combat vehicle.

Known armored tank with anti-aircraft weapons (US patent No. 3602088, F41H 5/16, publ. 08/31/1971), containing a rotating turret, which is equipped with two movable automatic anti-aircraft guns and radar detection and guidance to the target. The tower provides space for crew members, optical periscopes, stands for radar screens, a ballistic computer for calculating the elements of anti-aircraft guns firing depending on the relative position of the targets, manual controls and a compartment for storing ammunition. Anti-aircraft guns are installed on the side walls of the tower from the outside. The tank is a fully autonomous mobile armored vehicle, which can be used in any weather in mobile combat units.

A BMOP (fire support combat vehicle) was selected as a prototype (see the journal "Technique and Armament", article "Terminator": second series ", 2013, No. 12, pp. 82-86), a fire support combat vehicle containing a hull, mounted on the pursuit of the hull, the combat module, consisting of an armored tower, roof, shoulder strap, turret turning mechanism, bolt, block of remote weapons, racks, bearing bearings, cradles, interchangeable main weapons, self-contained drives, interchangeable secondary weapons, cradle mounting flanges, drives vertical guidance cradle, sight a, paths ammunition store electrical video viewing devices, control units, sensors ballistic computer, ballistic computer, the power of the transverse beam, a voltage amplifier, a voltage converter, a rotating contact unit Armament.:

Automatic gun: quantity, caliber, brand 2 × 30 mm, 2A42

A complex of guided weapons: provides firing a guided missile from a place and in motion, day and night.

Guided missile launchers with protection, pcs. 2

Auxiliary weapons: Machine gun - caliber / make / ammunition, pcs. 7, 62 mm /

Two automatic grenade launchers were additionally installed on the first BMOP samples. BMOS has a modern, developed automatic fire control system. The gunner’s sight includes a thermal imaging channel, an optical, ATGM guidance channel and a laser rangefinder. The commander’s panoramic sight has a circular sector. The panoramic sight has an optical, low-level television and laser rangefinder channels. If necessary, the commander can display the image of the gunner’s thermal sight on his video device. Automated LMS (fire control system) has a digital ballistic computer, a set of automatic sensors for firing conditions and automatic tracking of targets, which greatly simplifies and increases the effectiveness of guided weapons. The management of the armament complex is duplicated - the commander has the ability to conduct effective fire from the entire armament complex located in the tower. Workplaces of automatic grenade launcher operators are equipped with stabilized sights (day / night).

High security BMPT (tank support combat vehicle) is provided by the armored hull borrowed from the tank and a highly protected low-profile turret, without embrasure, the weapon unit is mounted on a support on the aft part of the turret. The vehicle’s side screens are equipped with dynamic protection elements and trellised screens, which protects the BMPT side and stern projections from grenades of hand-held anti-tank grenade launchers and ATGMs. However, side screens do not provide protection against melee weapons (hand-held anti-tank grenade launchers) during firing, and trellised screens provide protection only against hand-held anti-tank grenade launchers with a probability of up to 60%, while they must be at least 150 mm from the armor.

A disadvantage of the known designs of fire support combat vehicles is the lack of effectiveness in combating targets that can hit those armored objects to which the BMOF must provide fire support and protection. In addition, such a machine should be provided with means of observation and aiming at the target, which should exceed regular tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and other armored objects, and provide control of combat robotic systems of air and ground based.

Closest to the proposed technical solution according to the principle of operation and the technical device is the "Reconnaissance and fire complex of the armament of the tank" according to patent No. 1055422 of 11/22/2010, MPK F41H 7/00.

Its essence lies in the fact that a turret support platform is installed on the tank’s tower, this represents the tank itself with the main armament and its fire control complex, a launcher for storing and launching rockets with their control complex, sighting and observation complex, and rotary support a platform with a drive for orienting it in horizontal and vertical planes mounted on a command tower. At the same time, the launcher support-rotary platform for placing the container with rockets is placed behind the turret in the form of a module, and the rod — the periscope and micro UAVs with target detection devices, information receiving and processing devices, and its flight control and functioning.

The disadvantage of this design is the limitation of the size of rockets, due to their placement behind the turret of the tank, the inability to protect against tank hazardous personnel by defeating area targets, setting up various types of aerosol curtains to protect units from precision weapons and other means of destruction, and the inability to deploy operators for use UAVs and remotely controlled ground vehicles as weapons systems and elements of a robotic complex

The objective of the technical solution is to increase the mobility, security and combat effectiveness of the BMO.

The technical result consists in providing camouflage of groups of armored objects and individual units, in increasing the dimensions and thereby increasing the range of destruction of targets and the power of ammunition.

The claimed technical result can be obtained by using the invention, it is possible to equip the BMOP with full-time UAVs with a launch and landing system, placement of missiles with GOS (homing) together with ATGMs, which will significantly increase their dimensions and thereby increase the range of targets and ammunition power. Lengthening the rear of the combat module and deploying rocket-propelled flamethrowers there will allow both the destruction of the TSS (tank dangerous personnel) and other targets, as well as masking groups of armored objects and individual units. The use of grenade launcher installation sites to accommodate UAV control equipment, DUNM (remotely controlled ground vehicle) will allow the use of BMOP as a mobile advanced control center for various types of robotic systems.

The task is achieved in that the BMO reconnaissance and fire weapons complex is an anti-aircraft tank proper, comprising a hull mounted on the pursuit of a hull combat module consisting of an armored turret, a roof, a shoulder strap, a turret turning mechanism, a bolt, a remote weapon unit, with the main armament and complex fire control, launchers for storing and launching rockets with GOS deployed together with ATGMs, with their control complex, sighting and observation complex. At the same time, in the rear of the combat module there is a launcher of jet flamethrowers with the possibility of rotation in the vertical plane, and containers for placement and launch of the UAV are additionally included in the sighting and observation complex. UAVs are additionally equipped with detection and aiming devices for destroying targets, systems for installing and using on-board weapons. To land a UAV directly on the BMOP, a landing system is provided consisting of a guidance unit and a landing unit. At the installation site of automatic grenade launchers and their operators, UAV and DUNM control equipment and control centers for airborne and ground-based combat robotic complexes operators are equipped with the appropriate equipment.

The essence of the technical solution is illustrated by the drawings of the BMOF and its reconnaissance and fire complex, where in FIG. 1 shows a general view of the BMOS in the initial position, side view, rocket launcher launcher and UAV landing block in the combat position; in FIG. 2 - general view of the BMOP, rear side view, launcher for rockets with GOS in the firing position, UAV in flight; in FIG. 3 is a diagram of a variant of the use of BMOS in a combat robotic complex, where the positions in the drawings indicate: 1 - body; 2 - armored turret; 3 - roof; 4 - epaulet; 5 - turret rotation mechanism (not shown); 6 - block of weapons with the main armament and fire control system; 7 - automatic guns; 8 - launcher for rockets with GOS; 9 - rockets with GOS; 10 - a protective container for placing rockets with GOS; 11 - ATGM; 12 - launcher of jet flamethrowers with the possibility of rotation in a vertical plane; 13 - container with UAV; 14 - landing block; 15 - periscope rod; 16 - UAV; 17 - places of control of operators of combat robotic systems of air and ground-based; 18 - sighting and observation complex.

The BMOP reconnaissance and fire tank complex consists of body 1 of an armored turret 2 mounted on the roof 3 using an epaulet 4, containing a turning mechanism 5 (not shown) and a remote weapon unit with main armament and its fire control system 6, containing main armament two automatic guns 7 and, as an additional weapon, a launcher 8 with rockets with GOS 9 located in protective containers 10 (Fig. 1) placed together with ATGM 11 (Fig. 1). Launcher rocket-propelled flamethrowers with the possibility of rotation in a vertical plane 12 is fixed in the rear of the armored turret 2. In the same place in the rear of the armored turret 2 are launch containers with UAV 13 (Fig. 2), placed on top of the landing unit UAV 14 (Fig. 1) , which is a fine-mesh mesh stretched over a frame base capable of receiving various elevation angles. A periscope rod 15 is also installed there (Fig. 2) with observation and communication devices placed on it.

The fire control complex of the remote weapon unit 6 (Fig. 1) with the main armament, which includes automatic guns 7, ATGM 11, a rocket launcher launcher 12, is additionally equipped with devices for detecting, controlling and destroying targets for missiles with GOS 9 induced with the help of the UAV 16. To control the UAV and DUNM in the forward part of the BMOP, to the right and to the left of the driver’s place, instead of automatic grenade launcher operators, operator control centers for combat robotic airborne complexes are equipped ground-17, in addition provides setting BMOP equipment remote control from a central control point of the robot combat complex (FIG. 3).

The automation of the landing unit 14 of the UAV 16 at the armored object is provided.

The UAV 16 is located in the launch containers 13 (Fig. 2), allowing it to be ejected from it by compressed air from the pneumatic system, followed by turning on the engine.

When moving BMOP in a marching UAV 16 are in containers and are rigidly fixed with latches in the marching position, where it is necessary to use additional weapons, in parallel with the main or separate from it, the tank commander switches on the UAV 16 control system with a button, ensuring the functioning of the units. The latches release the UAV 16. Its engine is started, and it is ejected by compressed air and moves in the direction and at a speed determined by the UAV control system through the control devices located at the top of the periscope rod 15. The BMOS operator controls the operation of the UAV 16 (Fig. 2) . Surveillance devices and sensors installed on the UAV 16 scan the terrain and upon detection of targets transmit information either to the display or to an electronic map of the area. In this case, information about the targets coming from the UAV 16 is automatically entered into the data processing unit with a ballistic computer and through it into the guidance, installation and homing system of rockets with GOS 9.

Upon receipt of information from the UAV 16 about tank-hazardous manpower or about other targets struck by weapons, the commander directs the weapon systems to the target for its subsequent destruction. When using a UAV 16 as part of a robotic combat complex together with a DUNM, the UAV can be used to relay DUNM control signals when they are out of line of sight (Fig. 3). For landing, the UAV is pointed at the armored object and then, in manual or automatic mode, it is landed on the landing block 14. It can be performed both on the oncoming and catch-up courses. In this case, the landing block is in the raised position. With a standing armored object, landing can be done with the horizontal position of the landing block. When the UAV comes into contact with the landing block, the latches work, realizing its coupling with the armored object, the engine stops. The use of ROC BMOP is as follows. UAV 16 determines the coordinates of the target and transmits them to the data processing unit with a ballistic computer. The BMOF commander or the gunner-operator includes a missile launch system with GOS 9. A missile is launched and, when the desired altitude and range are reached, a command is issued to hit the target with homing or self-aiming warheads (EB).

BEs throw a missile from the PC case, after which the BE fuse is cocked. At an altitude of 250-300 meters from the ground, the self-aiming BE fires and the parachute system opens, providing its reduction and scanning of the area with an angular speed of rotation of several revolutions per minute. Warhead warhead is reduced by parachute at a speed of one hundred or more meters per second. When the BE encounters an obstacle, a fuse is triggered, which generates a detonation pulse for the detonator to fire, and then for the explosive charge.

When infrared radiation enters the self-aiming BE sector, the target is captured and further explosive is detonated. Due to the cumulative action of the BE charge, the armored target of the enemy is defeated.

If it is possible to target the UAV 16 with observation devices located on the periscope rod 15, the direction to the target is detected, the distance to it is measured, data is entered into the ballistic computer, the tower is oriented to the target in the horizontal position, and in the vertical position the vertical guidance drive at the desired aiming angle, after which the rocket is launched.

An analysis of the distinguishing features showed that the installation of rockets with GOS in combination with anti-tank missiles in protective containers with a turret oriented horizontally and vertical with a drive of the articulated mechanism and the placement of a system in them that would release rockets with compressed air at the time of launch, the use of UAVs 16, rod - periscope 15, an electronic map that provides the ability to fire at targets outside the line of sight, reduce the vulnerability of the BMOS, providing a detection system, observation I and aiming observations and aiming at targets located at distances exceeding the capabilities of regular BMOP detection, surveillance and aiming systems reduce the unmasking properties of launching missiles from a launcher, a data processing unit with a ballistic computer.

The placement of an additional launcher of jet flamethrowers as an additional highly effective weapon with the ability to conduct targeted fire and fire over areas provides protection against tank-hazardous manpower by hitting area targets, staging various types of aerosol curtains to protect units from high-precision weapons and other means of destruction. Using the installation sites of automatic grenade launchers to accommodate the operators and control equipment of UAVs, DUNMs, as well as installing equipment for remote control of the BMOP, will allow using the BMOP as a mobile advanced control center for various types of robotic complexes. The proposed design of the BMO reconnaissance and fire system is characterized by:

- placement of protective containers with rockets with GOS in conjunction with ATGM;

- placement of a rocket launcher launcher as an additional highly effective weapon with the ability to conduct targeted fire, fire on squares and aerosol masking;

- installation of a UAV landing unit on the BMOP;

- installation on the upper part of the armored tower of the periscope rod;

- the use of automatic grenade launcher installation sites to accommodate operators and UAV and DUNM control equipment;

- the use of a periscope rod for the placement of UAV and DUNM monitoring and control devices and the possibility of using the UAV as a relay of DUNM control signals.

- the use of BMOS as a mobile advanced control center for various types of robotic complexes;

- installation of equipment for remote control of the BMOS.
