Russia has conducted the first tests of armored panels to protect critical facilities such as oil depots and gas storage facilities, including from drone attacks. The development is being carried out by the Rostec State Corporation.
Rostec has for the first time tested the latest domestic armored plate designed to protect stationary objects from fragments and bullets. This product was developed at the Research Institute of the Kalashnikov concern. Unique armored panels can protect critical infrastructure facilities from UAV attacks.
During the tests, the sample withstood fragments of an F-1 grenade after an explosion at a distance of just over half a meter, as well as bullets from 9×19 mm 7N21 cartridges without a single penetration.
The armored panel is made of a combination of various materials and guarantees Br3 class protection against bullets. The class of protection against fragments is C-2. It implies armor resistance capable of withstanding the damaging elements of RGD-5, RGN, RGO hand grenades. The weight of a square meter of the product is less than 30 kg.
Such plates were developed to protect particularly important facilities, including energy infrastructure facilities, ammunition depots, oil and gas storage facilities, from FPV drone attacks.
Earlier it became known that Russia created the latest cruise missile called "Product 720". It embodies the best domestic design ideas.
