In the second half of April 2000, Russia has ratified an agreement on absolute ban on all sorts of tests in the modern world, the Cold War is no longer important, and therefore there is no particular need for the presence of strategic arms. But nevertheless, they did not completely refuse them, and in service of Russia there is the most powerful rocket-air rocket in the world, which in the west gave the terrible name "Satan" in the West.

Description of the ballistic rocket

The most powerful R-36M missile in the world was adopted in 1975. In 1983, the modernized version of the rocket was launched into development - R-36M2, which was called "Voevoda". The new R-36M2 model is considered the most powerful in the world. Its weight reaches two hundred tons, and it is comparable except with the statue of freedom. The rocket has an incredible devastating force: the launch of one rocket division will have the same consequences as thirteen thousand atomic bombs, similar to those discarded on Hiroshima. In addition, the most powerful nuclear missile will be ready for the launch in just a few seconds, even after many years of conservation complex.

Characteristics R-36M2

The R-36M2 rocket has only ten warheads with the physication function, the power of each of which is 750 kt. In order to be clearer how powerful is the destructive strength of this weapon, you can compare it with a bomb dropped on Hiroshima. Its power was only 13-18 CT. The most powerful rocket of Russia has a range of 11 thousand kilometers. R-36M2 is a rocket based in the mine, it is now in service with Russia.

The intercontinental missile "Satan" has a weight of 211 tons. It starts a mortar start and has a two-stage ignition. Solid fuel on the first stage and liquid-fuel - on the second. Taking into account such a feature of the rocket, designers made some changes, as a result of which the mass of the starting missile remained the same, the vibration loads arising at the start declined, and energy capabilities increased. The Ballistic Rocket "Satan" has the following dimensions: a length of 34.6 meters, in diameter - 3 meters. This is a very powerful weapon, the battle load of the rocket from 8.8 to 10 tons, the launcher has a radius of up to 16 thousand kilometers.

This is the most ideal range of anti-missile defense, which has independent individual guidance warheads and a system of false goals. "Satan" P-36M as the most powerful rocket in the world relating to the "earth-air" class is listed in the Guinness Book of Records. The creator of powerful weapons is M. Yangel. The main goal of the design bureau under his leadership was the development of a multicast rocket, which would be able to perform many functions and have a greater devastating force. Judging by the characteristics of the rocket, they coped with their task.

Why exactly "Satan"

A rocket complex created by Soviet designers and in service with Russia, "Satan" called Americans. In 1973, at the time of the first test, this rocket became the most powerful ballistic system, incomparable with any nuclear weapons of that time. After the creation of "Satan", the Soviet Union could no longer worry about weapons. The first version of the rocket was labeled SS-18, only in the 80s was developed a modified version of the R-36M2 "Voivode". Against this weapon can not even make modern systems about America. In 1991, even before the collapse of the USSR, the South KB was developed a draft rocket complex of the fifth generation "ICAR" R-36M3, but he was not created.

Now heavy fifth generation rockets are created in Russia. This weapon will host the most innovative scientific and technical achievements. But it is necessary to have time until the end of 2014, since at this time an inevitable write-off of even reliable, but already outdated "governor" will begin. According to the tactical and technical assignment, agreed by the Ministry of Defense and the manufacturer of the future ballistic intercontinental rocket, the new complex will be adopted in 2018. The creation of the rocket will be engaged in Makeev's missile center in the Chelyabinsk region. Experts argue that the new rocket complex will be able to be guaranteed to overcome any anti-missile defense, including the Space Shock Echelon.

Falcon Heavy Carrier

The main task of the two-stage pH of Falcon Heavy is to derive to the orbit of satellites and interplanetary apparatus weighing over 53 tons. That is, in fact, this carrier can raise a fully loaded Boeing liner with crew, luggage, passengers and full fuel tanks into the orbit. The first stage of the rocket includes three blocks, each of which has nine engines. In the US Congress, the likelihood of creating an even more powerful missile, which will be able to withdraw 70-130 tons of payload to orbit, are discussed. Representatives of Spacex agreed with the need to develop and create such a missile to be able to perform a large number of flights on Mars with manned control.

Conclusion

To speak in general about modern nuclear weapons, it can be fairly called the peak of strategic weapons. Modified nuclear complexes, in particular the most powerful rocket in the world, are able to affect the goals at a huge distance, and at the same time the anti-missile defense cannot seriously affect the course of events. If the United States or Russia will decide to use his nuclear arsenal for direct purpose, this will lead to the absolute destruction of these countries or, possibly, even the entire civilized world.

However, in fact, there is no magic here for any of the parties. The strategic level of mutually beneficial partnership in such a sensitive sphere, as the supply of weapons and military equipment, is a daily reality for our countries, a kind of routine, but without any negative subtext. And it has not been seriously damaged to this partnership until now, no countries make tremendous efforts to penetrate and consolidate in the Indian military products, nor separate disagreements between Russia and India on some joint programs (here, in particular, you can recall the creation project The MTA average transport aircraft, the abolition of which has recently become known).

In India with Triumph

No matter how much it wanted to destroy the Alliance of Moscow and Delhi in the field of PTS, do this fails. The basis of the combat power of the Indian Air Force, Ground Forces and Fleet is Russian weapons: Multifunctional Fighters of C-30MKI, Main Combat Tanks T-90, Vikramamiya aircraft carrier with an airgroup as part of deck fighters MiG-29K / cube. And this list continues to replenish. Currently, a contract is being prepared for the supply of India of anti-aircraft missile systems of a large range of C-400 developing a concern of the EMP "Almaz - Antey".

The Intergovernmental Agreement for the supply of Triumph in India, the Russian-Indian Summit in October 2016 was signed during the Russian-Indian Summit in October 2016. As Aero India 2017, Vladimir Yezzhov, Deputy Director of the Federal Service for Military Technical Cooperation, noted during the Aero India Salon 2017, Russia expects The corresponding contract will be concluded by the end of 2017. Currently, prefectless negotiations are underway.

During the days of Aero India 2017, Vyacheslav Dzirkalna, Deputy General Director of the Almaz - Antey Concern on foreign economic activity, was asked why the C-400 enjoys such a great interest in the high-tech market for military products. The answer was simple: "At the moment C-400 is the best air defense system in the world." This fact confirms not only the preparation of the appropriate contract with India, but also a concluded agreement on the supply of "triumphs" to China (contract with the PRC, as the Director of International Cooperation and Regional Policy of the State Corporation "Rostech" Viktor Kladov, is currently at the stage production). China quite obviously reached very significant progress in the development of modern weapons systems, but still prefers to implement sensitive programs from the point of view of providing national security programs in cooperation with Russia.

For obvious reasons, any details of the preparing contract with India for the supply of S-400 VSUS are not disclosed. It is known only - and this in the course of India 2017 confirmed Vyacheslav Dzarkaln - the systems will be supplied to India in the finished form, no localization of their production speech does not go.

And in order to satisfy the requirement of Delhi on the transfer of technologies in the purchase of weapons of foreign production in accordance with the Principle of Make In India in recent years, it is proposed to organize the after-sales service system in the country on the basis of the REDIK Mobile Complex developed by the Diamond - Antey "GPTP" Granite ". "We offer an option to equip the facilities already available in India to implement the after-sales service of our technology, with the subsequent transfer of the necessary documentation and equipment, which would have given the opportunity to work on Indian partners independently," said Vyacheslav Dzirkaln. "The concern has the right to exercise foreign specialists to conduct service work," the Deputy General Director of Almaz - Antea emphasized.

The mobile repair and diagnostic complex "REDIK" is intended for maintenance and restorative repair of anti-aircraft missile systems and complexes, as well as radar funds in the field of its operation. Equipment of the complex placed in unified containers allows you to maintain and repair a digital, digital-analog, analog radio-electronic equipment, mechanical and hydraulic units and nodes, livelihood systems, chassis. Placing workshops in unified containers equipped with a complete set of life support systems (air conditioners, heating, filter ventilation plants), allows you to solve the problem assigned to a complex in fact in any climatic zones and weather conditions.

Workplaces in workshops are equipped with automated control systems and diagnostics, which reduces the time required to detect a malfunction in radio-electronic equipment. Provides for storing zip sets for repair.

The complex is universal and can be used to repair almost any technique of both domestic and foreign production. In the latter case, the operator needs to provide only technical documentation for the samples of weapons and military equipment, on the basis of which Granite specialists will develop test programs for the diagnosis of radio-electronic equipment.

In addition to the developer of the REDIK complex, GPTP "Granit" and the creator of VRS S-400 NGO "Almaz", on the United Stand of the Almaz - Antey concern, its subsidiaries were presented: JSC "IEMZ" Dome ", JSC Umz, JSC VNIRA, PJSC "NPO" Strela ", PJSC Radiophysics - developers and manufacturers of air defense and marine dealers, automated control systems, radar stations and airspace control complexes and ground intelligence systems.

In general, at the exhibition Aero India 2017, in the exposition of the Almaz - Antey concern, an emphasis was focused on the modernization and repair of the profile products of the military, common in Southeast Asia. Thus, IEMZ "Dome" presented a program for the modernization program "OSA-AKM" to the level of OSA-AKM1 SPM, and UMS - modernization of the anti-aircraft missile rocket complex "Tunguska" to the level of Tunguska-M1 and the anti-aircraft self-propelled plant "Shilka" to the level of "shill-m4".

Currently, the expansion of the product range of the concern, offered to exports. In particular, work is underway to issue a passport of the export appearance of the SPM "BUK-M3". In appearance (not to mention significantly expanded combat characteristics), due to the placement of missiles in transport and starting containers, a new complex differs significantly from its predecessors. As Vyacheslav Dzarkaln noted, "Product Developers - Specialists NIP NIP NIPS - made a proposal to give a separate name to the Complex. The proposed name is associated with the name of the first generation of SPC in export execution. In the Almaz - Antei concern, it is calculated that the broad fame of the "beech" complexes abroad will contribute to successful promotion in the foreign market of the "Buk-M3E" SPC. According to our data, in combat effectiveness among mobile complexes of the middle range of equal complex "Beech-M3" does not exist. "

Among the other samples of military products presented by the Almaz - Antey concern at Aero India 2017, it should be noted the radar complexes of security of objects and the border, in particular, the Multipurpose RLS "Owl" Development of the Tula NGO "Strela" interested in representatives Ministry of the Interior and the Program of India .

"In addition to the fact that we present anti-aircraft missile systems at this exhibition, this year we paid great attention to civilian products," said Vyacheslav Dzarkaln during Aero India 2017. - The concern is a mod lawmaker in the field of automated air traffic control systems (AC Intelation), so many meetings and negotiations are held here on this subject. "

The Deputy General Director of the Almaz - Antey Concern, in particular, noted that the Indian side is interested in the supply of AU leadership of the development and production of the concern, the flight field review systems (A-SMGCS), to primary and secondary radar, systems and communication systems, navigation , meteorological support. "There are various proposals for the modernization of the technical means of the air navigation system of the Republic of India, the organization of joint production under the State Program" Make In India ". Currently, the possibility of equipping India airports with equipment AU Internal Affairs Concern is under study. In addition to the Indian side, countries such as Myanmar, Vietnam, Iran, Indonesia also show interest in our equipment, "Vyacheslav Dzarkaln said.

It is important to note here that "Almaz - Antei" plans to further expand the line of high-tech civilian products. The concept of developing the concern provides that the strategic importance in this segment will have civilian instrument making, electronics, the creation of automated control systems, autonomous energy installations, the development of energy-saving technologies and technologies for processing and disposal for the needs of housing and communal services, medicine, transport, communications, safety and industrial production .

That is, in this case, it is not about the production, for example, consumer electronics and other goods of public consumption - attempts to reorient the OPK on the stamping pots have already occurred in 1980-1990. And they demonstrated their complete inconsistency, bordering the hydration. Each segment of the industry should be engaged in their work, especially since the transfer of high technologies from the military to the adjacent civilian spheres is the reception has already been worked out in world practice, which has repeatedly proven its effectiveness.

Indian Fighter Tender - New Series

The main aviation aviation airlock Aero India 2017 was the situation around the planned purchase of India of a large batch (200 units) of single-engine fighters - heritage and not implemented to the end of the MMRCA program. India Minister Manohar Parrikar revealed some details of this project during the exhibition.

Fighters must be collected in the country as part of the Make In India concept with large-scale technology transfer.

According to the local media Manohar Parrykar, currently in the project lead two companies - American Lockheed Martin with F-16 Blotsk 70 (F-16V) and Swedish Saab with JAS 39E / F Gripen. The minister also told the F / A-18E / F Super Hornet American company Boeing, although this heavy two-link machine is clearly not suitable for the conditions of the prepared tender. Whether this statement is an error or characteristic variable variability - is not yet clear. In any case, the F / A-18E / F has already participated in the famous tender in the MMRCA program, which also had to participate multifunctional fighters of the middle class.

According to Manohar Parrikar, the selected aircraft will be collected on the enterprise created in India, specially built under the project within the proposed strategic partnership. After selecting the Indian aircraft model for a certain period of time, it will determine exclusively Indian private companies as subcontractors.

Responding to questions of journalists that allegedly decided to transfer the plant for the assembly of F-16 to India, the Minister of Defense said that he himself found out this from the media, although he did not deny the fact that such negotiations really conducted with the Barack administration Obama. The administration of Donald Trump, in his opinion, can have another point of view on this and other programs, and the Indian leadership is ready to discuss them, realizing that any transaction of this scale must comply with US policy priorities.

Be that as it may, but during Aero India 2017, the Swedish company Saab launched unprecedented stormy activities to promote its fighter to the Indian market. Representatives of the company stated the maximum possible transmission of India technologies, as well as promoted the deck version of Gripen for new Indian aircraft carriers, the work on the creation of which has already begun.

The design of the seaside version of Jas 39E / F has not yet left the paper stage, although, according to Saab representatives, the construction of the flight sample of the fighter will begin "very soon." Since the Swedish fleet does not have aviance ships, the first flight of the marine "Gripen" will take place from the deck of the aircraft carrier "third country". The main candidate for this role is the United States, because it is unlikely that the Swedes will be able to achieve understanding in this matter with Paris, which expects to independently sell India its deck Rafale M.

In addition to promotion to the Indian market, JAS 39E / F, Saab offers as either a separate or additional option to increase the fighting capabilities of the Light TEJAS fighter of Indian development. The Swedes are ready to integrate their radar on board this aircraft, similar to the "Gripen", as well as to equip the TEJAS suspended container with small-sized radars from the headlights, which allows you to apply all-round air-air rockets from the fighter.

Russia will also participate in tenders for the supply of India 200 new fighters and deck cars for promising aircraft carriers. Our applicants are MiG-35 and MiG-29k / cube. As Vladimir Yezzhov said in the course of Aero India 2017, the Russian proposal for the first competition was submitted before the official start of tender procedures.

John McCain, who lost past presidential elections in the US, Barack Obama, is known as the active critic of the Russian external and domestic policy. It is likely that one of the explanations of such an irreconcilable position of the senator lies in the achievements of the Soviet designers of half a century ago. On October 23, 1967, a young pilot plane was shot down during the Hanoi bombardment, a leaving from the family of hereditary Admirals John McCain. Its "Phantom" pulled out an anti-aircraft controlled missile complex C-75. The Soviet anti-heart sword by that time had already delivered a lot of trouble to the Americans and their allies. The first "sample pen" took place in China in 1959, when the local air defense unit was interrupted by the flight of the Taiwanese high-rise intelligence officer, created on the basis of the British bomber CANBERRA. Hopes for the fact that the Red Air Force will not be a more progressive air intelligence officer - Lockheed U-2, - was also not destined to come true. One of them was shot down with the help of C-75 over the Urals in 1961, and the other - a year later on Cuba. On account of the legendary anti-aircraft missile, created in the ICD "Torch", many other affected goals in different conflicts from the Far and Middle East to the Caribbean, and the S-75 complex itself was destined in various modifications. It can be safely argued that this SPC discovered the fame of the world's most common air defense system in the world.

Mobile universal anti-missile and anti-spare system of the C-300BHM "ANTEY-2500" refers to a new generation of anti-missile and unshakual defense systems (pro-PSO). "Antey-2500" is the only universal remedy for and air defense in the world, capable of effectively fighting both ballistic missiles with a launch range of up to 2500 km and with all kinds of aerobal and aerobalistic purposes. The Antey-2500 system is able to fire at the same time 24 aerodynamic objectives, including low-wing objects, or 16 ballistic missiles flying at a speed of up to 4500 m / s.

The Global FirePower site for 50 criteria rated the power of the armies of 126 countries. At the same time, the nuclear potential of the countries was not taken into account, but the state of the economy was taken into account. At first, the authors set the US Army (0.1661 points), on the second - Russia (0.1865), on the third - China (0.2315). How much does the rating reflect the realities? And what are the prospects for the three strongest armies of the world?


"The Army of Russia is the best in the world"

The authors warn that in the preparation of the rating, the nuclear potential of the countries, the current potential of political and military leadership, the number of weapons was not a decisive factor, and the countries that do not have access to the sea were not punished for the lack of navy, and on the contrary, sea powers - punished. Considered factors such as the geographical position and the economic situation in the country.

The absolute value of the "Power Index" ("Pwrindx") for the perfect army should be "0.0000", which is really unattainable. The rating forms a system of bonuses and fines. For example, Austria, which has no way out to the sea, does not receive a penalty for an insufficient military fleet, but receives them for the lack of a suitable fleet.

The authors indicate the following factual sources: CIA. Gov, Cia World Factbook, Wikipedia. COM, available data in the media and bloggers. Some values \u200b\u200bhad an assessment in nature when official data was absent, the opening part says.

As a result, the top ten of the most powerful Army, Russia, China, India, Great Britain, France, South Korea, Germany, Japan and Turkey entered. Let's compare the indicators on the first three most powerful armies.

1. By the number of servicemen In the first place, the Chinese army - 2.333 million people, in the second - the United States (1.4 million), the Russian army - on the third (766,055 thousand military personnel). Curry data on the personnel reservation. Here in the first place is Russia - 2,485 million people, in the second China - 2.3 million, and the United States - 1, 1 million people.

Of course, the qualitative composition of military personnel is different. American armed forces are 100 percent equipped with contract soldiers. High level of their logistical equipment.

In Russia, only now began to engage in the modernization of military equipment, China's army still takes quantities. But in the combat spirit, the Russians hardened in the last conflicts exceed the "rivals" soldiers. At the beginning of the year, the attack on the American cruiser Vicksbur imitated Su-34. There was no electronic influence on the vessel, but the Americans could not even use the air defense system, and two dozen sailors filed a resignation.

2. For grounding battle systems, in particular, on tanks, in the first place is the Russian army - 15 398 tanks (the main combat tanks, light tanks and fighters of tanks on a wheel or crawler). In second place - the Army of China (9 150 tanks), on the third - Americans (8848 armored vehicles).

Russia has a huge advantage (at times) on combat armored machines (BTR and BMP), self-propelled guns, towed tools and volley fire systems. We will not bring numbers here, the reader can see them yourself. This advantage is due to the fact that our possible theater of hostilities is near abroad, and no one has completely canceled the estimated tank attack on Berlin.

New Russian tanks will consolidate this superiority. The mass delivery of the Russian army of the newest T-14 tanks "Armat" will begin at the turn of 2017-2018. There are no new developments in the US, the Pentagon is relying on the modernized versions of their combat vehicles of the Cold War - M-1 Abrams and Bradley.

China has a third-generation tank - VT-4 (MBT-3000). The Chinese argue that by key parameters, it even exceeds "Armat". But this tank is designed exclusively for export deliveries, they are not going to fight the Chinese army. Question - why?

3. Air Force - Ranking takes into account aircraft and helicopters of all kinds of troops. Here the leadership of the US Army, obliges it, of course, their "island" position. The alleged theater of hostilities is in Eurasia, and there must be technique and soldiers.

The United States has 13892 aircraft, of which fighters - 2207 units, attack aircraft- 2797, transport aircraft - 5366, helicopters - 6196.

In second place - the Russian army. All aircraft she has 3429, of which fighters - 769, attack aircraft - 1305, transport aircraft - 1083, helicopters - 1120. China has in service with only 2860 aircraft, of which fighters - 1066, attack aircraft - 1311, transport aircraft - 876, helicopters - 908.
