Saab RBS15 MK3 Surface to Surface Missile

Image
With high-speed, long-range and unrivalled flexibility, the RBS15 Mk3 can provide a tactical advantage. It is the latest generation Surface-to-Surface Missile System and perfect as the main anti-surface armament. It can be launched from naval vessels and trucks, in scenarios from blue water to the littorals, as well as in land attack missions. The RBS-15 (Robotsystem 15) is a long-range fire-and-forget surface-to-surface and air-to-surface, anti-ship missile. The later version Mk. III has the ability to attack land targets as well. The missile was developed by the Swedish company Saab Bofors Dynamics. The first weapon contract was signed in 1979; at the last minute the Swedish government did not buy the Harpoon anti-ship missile, opting for an indigenous design. The first missiles were delivered to the Navy in June 1984, and the ship version RBS-15 Mk. I was introduced. The Swedish Navy ordered the missile in 1984 to develop a coastal defense version of the RBS-15F. The mi...

ROK Army - K-30 Biho 30mm + Missiles Anti-Aircraft Armoured Vehicles Live Firing

Image
The South Korean K30 Biho (Flying Tiger) twin 30 mm self-propelled anti-aircraft weapon was developed to meet the operational requirements of the Republic of Korea Armed Forces for a highly mobile short range air defense system suited to the operational and terrain conditions of the Korean peninsula. It combines an electro-optically guided 30 mm gun system with a surveillance radar system on a K200 chassis. It supplements the K263A1 Chungung, a self-propelled 20 mm Vulcan system. The K30 is primarily built by Hanwha Defense Systems. A K30 Biho system consists of twin 30 mm guns, a TPS-830K surveillance and fire-control radar, an electro-optical targeting system (EOTS), panoramic periscope, forward looking infrared system (FLIR), laser rangefinder (LRF), thermal sight, a TV camera, and a digital fire-control system. The combined targeting system of EOTS, FLIR, and LRF has a targeting range of 7 km (4.3 mi). The TPS-830K radar can detect and track a 2 m2 (22 sq ft)-RCS target from...

Defence Systems & Unmanned Ground Vehicle For Protection Of Silo Launchers

Image
Russia has unveiled unique unmanned robotic guardian system for guard the underground silos of the Strategic Missile Forces (SMF). The system was developed to boost the security of stationary military sites and is set to be deployed to guard the underground silos of the Strategic Missile Forces (SMF). “A state-of-the-art robotized guarding system for SMF stationary facilities has passed military tests in the Kozelsk Missile Formation [Kaluga Region, south of Moscow],” the Defense Ministry reported. The remotely-controlled hardware is equipped with electro-optical and radar reconnaissance gadgets. The new system can fire bullets and grenades in both automatic and semi-automatic mode at targets 400 meters away. The military noted that the system did well in defending the silo launch site at the testing range from simulated attacks by “saboteurs”. The robotic system which has been tested and is now ready for action was engineered to make it ready for deployment in less than 30 s...

This is the story behind SAAB RBS 70 NG

Image
SAAB RBS 70 NG is not just a missile system. It is the expertise and dedication of a team with more than 50 years missile development and production experience. The new accurate, reliable and flexible RBS 70 NG VSHORAD system with 24/7 all-target capability has been developed for any combat situation. The creativity and ingenuity of the Saab people has created a world-leading air-defence system. The development studies started over 40 years ago, and by 1978 Generation 1 was in service. With an effective intercept range against incoming targets of 5 kilometres, and altitude coverage of more than 2,000 metres, it was a unique product. Its unjammable guidance with laser beam riding missile was one of the first military laser applications and ensured it could perform in cluttered environments. Our new accurate, reliable and flexible RBS 70 NG VSHORAD system with 24/7 all-target capability has been developed for any combat situation. Its modular design allows it to reuse all existi...

Russia MOD - Yars Nuclear Capable ICBM River Crossing

Image
The RS-24 Yars also known as RT-24 Yars or Topol'-MR is a Russian MIRV-equipped, thermonuclear weapon intercontinental ballistic missile first tested on May 29, 2007, after a secret military R&D project, to replace the older R-36 and UR-100N that have been in use for nearly 50 years. RS-24 is a missile that is heavier than the current Topol-M, and which some reports say can carry up to 10 independently targetable warheads.[8] The 2007 tests were publicized as a response to the missile shield that the United States were planning to deploy in Europe. RS-24 has been deployed operationally since 2010. In December 2010 the 54th Guards Rocket Division in Teykovo received its second delivery of RS-24 missile systems. In total 6 missiles were deployed by the end of 2010.[28] 3 more mobile missile systems were deployed in July 2011 and then the first regiment was operational. In December 2011 first division of second regiment with 3 missiles was put on combat duty and second divi...

Boeing and Saab Test Ground Launched Small Diameter Bomb

Image
At a test range in northern Sweden, Boeing and Saab tested the Ground Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB) by adapting the SDB to an artillery system. The GLSDB can reach targets from significantly longer distances, and engage hard-to-reach targets, while maintaining the Small Diameter Bomb’s flight maneuverability and accuracy. LSDB), Sweden The Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB) is a long-range, all-aspect, precision-attack, ground-launched weapon developed by Saab in partnership with Boeing to address the emerging needs of armed forces. The GLSDB combines capabilities of the SDB I air-launched weapon and the M26 ground-based rocket motor. Designed for launch from the ground artillery system, the GLSDB provides land forces with the ability to engage a range of targets in complex operating environments. The LIMAWS(R) was being developed to provide the Royal Artillery's fire support to the UK Army's light and rapid reaction forces. The LSDB was launched ...
