The crew of one of the ships of the Russian Navy used the domestic universal target training complex (UMTC) "Adjutant" for the first time. The system simulated anti-ship cruise missiles to train shipborne air defense (AD) systems.
Fanil Ziyatdinov, General Director of the Izhevsk Electromechanical Plant "Kupol" (part of the Almaz-Antey Air Defense Concern), noted that the training was the first full-scale use of the "Adjutant" UMTC over the sea.
Air attack weapons of coastal basing simulated two air targets of aircraft type with a turbojet engine. The targets were launched during the exercises 7 km from the sea, and the flight path corresponded to the routes of anti-ship cruise missiles.
"Adjutant" is the most modern target system for training air defense crews. The developers placed elements on one chassis that simulate modern air attack weapons, including cruise missiles, airplanes, helicopters, and drones. Work is also underway to create a target with a high subsonic speed.
The complex is capable of launching up to six target simulators into the sky simultaneously, controlled from a single command post. This makes it possible to create a complex combined air situation for air defense calculations.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Russia has significantly increased production of unmanned boats for the Navy.
