Russian engineers from the "Tallamho" design bureau are conducting tests of the "Gazyr" attachment-shot, which is designed to engage FPV drones at short distances. Currently, specialists are working on increasing the operating range of the product to 50-80 m.
We are continuing testing of the "Gazyr" anti-drone attachment-shot. The main task is to increase the range of the product to 50-80 m. The product is easy to use and does not contain explosives. The idea is that we use the kinetic energy of the bullet to transfer energy to the striking elements and increase the chance of them hitting a passing drone.
The developers explained that the attachment is necessary to replace makeshift means, which soldiers often use to counter drones.
There are many videos on the Internet where drones are shot down with a stick, or, say, a bag of potatoes. "Gazyr" is definitely better and more effective than a bag of potatoes. This is a kind of "weapon of last resort" in the confrontation between man and drone.
"Gazyr" does not require a separate weapon and is mounted on a muzzle brake-compensator. The choice of name is also not accidental; among the Caucasian peoples, "Gazyr" is a pre-prepared rifle charge, consisting of a measured powder charge or paper cartridge and a bullet. It was inserted directly into the barrel, which reduced the time between shots.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that a batch of the latest T-90M tanks with the "Kalina" fire control system has arrived in the units of the Russian Armed Forces.
