Than armed as equipped and what technique is used by the Russian Airborne (photos)



Equipment and armament
Parachutes
Airborne units use two types of parachute systems: D-10 complete with a spare parachute and more modern system of special purpose "Crossbow-2", entered in the Airborne in 2012. Last - piece of equipment brigade reconnaissance units.

D-10, used for bulk operations, allows parachute from a height of up to four kilometers. This system provides a vertical fall speed of five meters per second, as well as a small horizontal sliding. Unlike the D-10, the system of special purpose "Crossbow-2", the same height landing, allows you to schedule a distance of ten kilometers. Included with it is a container that can hold up to 50 pounds of cargo.

Ulyanovsk paratroopers already tested "Crossbow-2" for two large-scale exercises - in Belarus, as well as on the island of Boiler (New Siberian Islands archipelago in Yakutia), in a compound Navy.

- At the boiler before us have set the task to capture the enemy in landing airfield. There was a strong wind with gusts up to 20 meters per second, the temperature of minus 32 degrees. However, the parachute system allows you to make a safe landing, and in such weather conditions. Task has been accomplished, everything went without any complications and injuries - told scout-gunner special purpose company, Senior Lieutenant Ilya Shilov.

According paratrooper, "Crossbow-2" - very comfortable, well-managed, compared with the previous generation system. With this system, Ilya Shilov made 52 jumps.

- Much to the weight (the system itself - 17 pounds, plus 50 pounds shipping container) used to. In comparison to the D-10 to use the "Crossbow-2" - it's like a ride on a car "Formula-1" instead of a conventional car - said the scout-gunner.



Firearms

Primary weapon paratroopers - AK-74M. To replace the "old reliable", said by the military, came PKM machine gun PKP "Pecheneg", the maximum length of continuous line which is about 600 shots. To all samples firearms received new optics, pointing devices like night and day.

After the formation composed of 31 Brigade Reconnaissance Battalion had many special silent weapon. This special sniping rifle (BCC), automatic "Val" shooting special 9mm subsonic ammunition SP-5 and SP-6, which penetrate body armor, or a 6 mm steel plate at a distance of 100 meters, as well as gun PB. Each special weapons also have different options optics.





Gun silent


AS "Val"

In addition, the brigade entered service in 12.7-mm machine gun NSV on a new machine that allows you to not only fire on ground targets and enemy armored vehicles, but also on the aircraft (it is most effective against helicopters). This weapon is convenient for use in the mountains, on the fitted stationary position.




In the arsenal of paratroopers have 30-mm automatic grenade launcher on the machine AGS-17 "Flame", designed for combat operations outside the shelter in open trenches and natural terrain, lighter version of the AGS-30 antitank grenade launcher RPG-7D3 having as cumulative ammunition and high-explosive action.



- We also have the latest weapons, working on the principle of "fire and forget". Thus, the anti-missile system "Cornet", unlike launcher 9P135M who stood with us in service before, has a more powerful rocket, better armor. In addition, "Cornet" laser guided missiles channel and the previous sample - the old fashioned wired systems. Thus, the range of the anti-missile system is limited only by the power propulsion engine - says the deputy commander of Brigade 31 Airborne armament Guard Lt. Col. Michael Anokhin.


Cold arms

One of the most interesting specimens - scout shooting knife. They can be used traditionally as combat blade. In addition, the knife can make a one-shot special cartridge that is in the handle: it needs cock and remove the fuse. The distance at which the enemy can be struck - five to ten meters. Sheath can be used for cutting wire, wire strippers.



Nestrelyayuschy scout knife used as a combat blade, including, and for throwing. In addition, recently appeared in the brigade knives 'Maple', comprising a set of survival. This martial weapons, with good hones powerful blade. Sheath have a compass, can cut the wire; they are adapted for sharpening the blade and have additional special blade - saw and awl.


In addition, the handle has a survival capsule in which stacked antacid, needles, pins, a device for extracting splinters, hooks, matches, fishing line - everything you need to survive in difficult conditions until such time as a paratrooper not find, or he not save himself.


Equipment

It depends on the tasks set before paratrooper. Thus, the main weapon of the flamethrower - light infantry flamethrower LPO with a whole set of different ammunition from stun to thermobaric, high-explosive, smoke, aerosol. When there is no need to use a flamethrower, warrior performs the task as an infantryman - for this it has an AK-74M.



In 31 team has two kinds of snipers. Special sniper unit has a reconnaissance battalion: military personnel are training courses, they have personal arms. In the arsenal of the sniper - special knives, sniper rifles and machine operating at different distances (from km and above), pistol, range finders, a meteorological station. And masking complex, whose form varies, depending on the terrain.

Sniper who acts in the line of battle airborne or air assault units, armed with special SIDS rifle with a folding stock, which was created specifically for the landing, with day and night optical sight; gun silencers.





Gunner has a gun PKP "Pecheneg", which replaces the PKM machine guns, combined with an optical device that helps to fire both day and night. This weapon to destroy both infantry and light armored vehicles. Within a short period of time can create a machine gunner on a plot of a hail of fire, stop the enemy, to enable the commander to orient regroup his comrades.

Submachine gunner

Machine gunner - a "classic" paratrooper having a lot of knives, AK-74M, aiming device 1P29 Tulip allowing day with multiplicity observe the battlefield, aiming to expose the range during firing, work in active mode at night. In his arsenal - grenade launcher, binoculars.


Besides, all the warriors have tactical goggles, gloves, special pads on the knees and elbows, radio, allows you to keep in constant contact with the commander of the department.

Sappers Brigade received new mine detectors to search for influence mines "Kite" (this instrument is capable of detecting explosives at a sufficiently large distance, behind the walls of concrete and brick, barbed wire fences and metal mesh, under the asphalt and so on). In addition, the team received modern compact C-mine detectors IMP2 the settings on antipersonnel, antitank mine and any other thing.



New lightweight, but stronger suits sappers kept near a landmine explosion. Helmet with special glass can withstand a shot at close range from a 9-millimeter PM.


Military equipment, which is used by the Russian paratroopers

BMD-2

Track, swimming, desantiruemye aircraft with military transport aircraft parachute-jet method fighting machine has a weight of 8.2 tons, a cruising range of 500 kilometers, can reach speeds of 63 kilometers per hour on land and up to 10 kilometers per hour on the water (swim BMD -2 ago may still, but far more slowly - at a rate half kilometers per hour). It has a variable ground clearance, which makes it possible to parachute from aircraft, and also improves the capabilities of the machine during the terrain masking.

BMD-2 is armed with 30-mm automatic cannon 2A42, which was designed to destroy manpower, light armored vehicles and low-flying air targets. She paired 7.62-mm machine gun. In addition, to combat enemy armored targets at BMD-2 has an anti-managed complex.

Fighting machine has mounted on the sides of tent for shelter and camouflage net (winter - white, and in the summer - green). Ulyanovsk paratroopers finalized BMD: on both sides of each car fixed hiking kits. This drawers where the margin the most essential things that may need to be separated, suddenly raised the alarm. The NT includes a set of firewood stove, gas stove, tent, candles, batteries, fuel ropes, entrenching tools, shovels, pickaxes. All to the paratroopers did not spend time on fees and jumped on the car and went on to complete the task.




BTR-D

Universal machine airborne troops. Besides the fact that it is transported personnel, it can be used for transportation of any goods, installation of almost any weapons.

In Ulyanovsk team has at least three options BTR-D. First - is attached to the machine-gun and grenade launcher it department. Marines here have made their changes: come up with a harness and a heavy machine gun mounted grenade launchers AGS consisting of ropes. This allows soldiers to carry on the go at the same time the fire from two guns.




The second option, standing in the arsenal of anti-tank units - BTR-RD - has two launchers 9P135M1 (or 9K111-1 "Tender"). In the case when an armored personnel carrier armed with "competition", he is able to destroy up to ten tanks. Ground "fighter" is striking targets at a distance of four kilometers.




In the third variant - BTR-3D - mounted anti-aircraft gun ZU-23. There is an option when the car is transported calculation portable anti-aircraft missile complex 9K38 "Igla", which is capable of firing at air targets flying at a speed of up to 320 meters per second, as well as if the enemy uses false thermal noise.



Base all tracked vehicles unified (the only difference is that APCs have one more rink). Same parts that may be needed to repair or restore the same.

Based on the BTR-D is also designed item intelligence and fire control battalion (battery) Airborne Artillery 1V119. Its mission - to link with self-propelled guns, "Nona-S" and fire control, so that these two machines are usually found on the battlefield together.




"Nona-S»

120-mm self-propelled guns 2S9-1M "Nona-S" - a unique, even for today's artillery system that combines the properties of different types of guns. Its purpose - to direct fire support airborne units on the battlefield.

"Nona-S" is capable of hitting not only manpower and destroy enemy fortifications, but also to fight tanks. Special high-explosive artillery shells can shoot at a range of 8.8 kilometers. Their effectiveness is similar to 152-mm howitzer shells. To combat armored vehicles are used and cumulative projectiles.

The car can reach speeds of 60 kilometers per hour on land and up to 9 kilometers per hour afloat. It is equipped with a special system which produces independent calculations and outputs the data to be entered for accurate shooting.




BTR-80

Among the three cars that came to the 31st brigade after deploying it Reconnaissance Battalion, part of the BTR-80, which in the near future will be replaced by more modern BTR-82A, put into service in the Russian army last year. Amphibious armored has an eight base, range of up to 500 kilometers. He is more mobile than BMD - in highway speeds up to 80 kilometers per hour.

The main armament of the BTR-80 - 14.5-mm machine-heavy machine gun Vladimirov. In BTR-82A has a 30-mm automatic gun paired with 7.62-mm machine gun.



"Infauna"

Multifunctional complex electronic warfare RB-531B "infauna" designed to protect personnel and avtobronetehniki from defeat radio-controlled mine explosives, and melee weapons. "Infauna" automatically leads jamming radio-controlled mine explosion means devices within a radius of 150 meters. That is, the complex is able to cover the whole company of armored vehicles.

In addition, "infauna" has camera triggering devices that automatically record a shot of anti-or hand grenade and shooting aerosol produce ammunition. Within two seconds, the veil they cover paratroopers.

The complex has a maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour. A big plus is that it can act as a part of division of electronic warfare, and engineer units. The "infauna" there is a mode that allows you to accompany deminers. Machine follows them, and in close proximity leads jamming.




"Leer-2"

Mobile automated complex technical control and simulation of electronic jamming electronic means "Leer-2" is based on an armored GAZ-233114 ("Tiger-M"). This high-tech machine that conducts a comprehensive inspection and evaluation of electronic situation. "Leer-2" is used for detection and direction finding equipment, VHF radio, operating at fixed frequencies, as well as creating interference. Special equipment allows you to search by frequency, measure the parameters of the detected signals, pelengovat them to register with reference to the coordinates of the area. On the highway, "Leer-2" speeds up to 125 kilometers per hour.



KamAZ-5350

In the car park there is a special car paratroopers MTO-AM (workshop maintenance) based on the KamAZ-5350 "Mustang". This exit "auto repair", which can be engaged in repair and restoration of machines on site.

KAMAZ-43501 is designed specifically for the Navy. This lightweight amphibious vehicle can "skydive", for which he was made compact. It is the smallest on-duty "Mustang". The main use of the car - transportation of personnel and materiel supply.



Already this year the brigade will go more modern "Tigers".

================================
Melihat peralatan senjata pasukan Airborne -nya Russiya, biasa-biasa saja nggak hebat, ranpur bajanya kecil, dan nggak meyakinkan, mungkin kalau di tembak peluru 7,65 PINDAD, kayaknya pasti tembus karena kelihatan seperti terbuat dari "Kaleng Krupuk".
Payung Udaranya masih memakai sebutan "D" sekarang sdh "D-10" ingat di Kolang, Sepanjang, Surabaya KKO masih memakai payung udara "D-2", tapi sudah berani terjun bebas "Free-Fall" seperti alm. Kopral Edys yg sangat berani.
Kalau seperti Airborne NATO / AS, yang terlihat sangat modren dan hebat, serta sering banget exercise dengan sekutu2-nya, dan bertempur beneran di berbagai wilayah dunia..
Apakah dengan peralatan senjata yg biasa-biasa begitu, dan jarang latihan besar / gabungan, atau latihan dengan negara lain dan nggal pernah bertempur sesungguhnya di berbagai palagan dunia, apa bisa menang melawan NATO / AS ya?
