Russia presented an updated air defense unit automation control system at the Dubai Airshow 2023 international aerospace exhibition. It has already been used in combat conditions and has demonstrated the ability to detect, suppress, or destroy popular modern small-sized FPV drones, quadcopters, and fixed-wing drones on the battlefield.
The equipment performs target distribution and guidance of anti-aircraft gunners to an aerial target, and also controls anti-drone equipment. Previously, it was installed on vehicles.
The Penza "Radiozavod", which is part of "Ruselectronics", has created a portable version of the project: an automated control module (ACM) and an individual automation kit (IAK). Now it also destroys drones.
How it works
The ACM includes a laptop or tablet with specialized software, navigation tools, wired and wireless communication equipment.
The module coordinates the actions of anti-aircraft gunners.
It can simultaneously control 9 gunners or 4 MANPADS gunner platoons. The equipment is capable of tracking up to 100 targets, receiving information from subordinate IAKs about the phases of combat operations and the state of ammunition, issuing target designation commands, and automating the alignment of anti-aircraft gunners on the ground.
The IAK is for soldiers equipped with portable anti-aircraft systems or small arms. It includes a tablet, protective glasses with a built-in microdisplay showing targets, as well as radio communications and navigation equipment.
The system can be adapted to the air defense systems of a foreign customer.
