Footage has emerged online of tests of an experienced prototype of the anti-tank version of the highly automated "Marker" tracked robotic complex. It is equipped with a remotely controlled combat module based on the 9P163-2 launcher with the "Cornet" anti-tank missile system (ATGM).
It is represented by two paired blocks with four transport and launch containers equipped with 9M133M-2 or 9M133FM-3 missiles. For the first time, the "Marker" platform appeared at a test site in 2020 with a "Utyos" machine gun and a block for two RPG-26s. During the tests, the robot, moving around the training ground, automatically recognized targets and conducted high-precision fire on them.
The "Marker" uses a new scheme of drive solutions, in which the optoelectronic instrument unit, which observes, captures an object and tracks it, is located in the center and has its own separate drives, and the drives for installing the payload are located to the right and left of it and operate separately, not connected to each other. This arrangement allows for the simultaneous engagement of targets with various types of weapons simultaneously.
The "Marker" platform has a range of up to a thousand km or 60 hours. The chassis with a tracked propulsion system has a resource several times smaller than the wheeled version, but this is compensated for by better cross-country ability in snow and off-road conditions. The speed of the wheeled version is 80 km/h, and the tracked version is 70 km/h.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Russian tanks adopted the habits of artillery and began to work from closed firing positions.
