It was proposed to transfer the Soviet automated military air defense missile system to a new chassis from MAZ-6317. This idea was put forward by the designers of the "2566 Radioelectronic Armament Repair Plant" in Belarus.
Currently, the system is installed on the basis of a three-axle "floating" BAZ-5937 chassis. For movement on water, the chassis is equipped with a water jet. The engine is diesel. In addition, the chassis is equipped with navigation and topological binding tools. The chassis can be transported by Il-76 aircraft and railway transport.
According to the specialists' idea, the transfer of equipment to a new element base is necessary to improve operational parameters, improve combat capabilities, and extend service life.
Tactical and technical characteristics of the Osa air defense system:
- Crew — 4 people
- Mass of combat vehicle — 17.5 tons
- Speed of targets hit — up to 500 m/s
- Number of missiles on the BM — 6 pcs
- Mass of warhead of the missile — 15 kg
- Deployment time — 3 min
- Fuel range — 500 km
Earlier www1.ru reported that the Russian Armed Forces began to use a new type of missile to defeat the enemy. They fly much further and twice as accurately thanks to the built-in motor.
