Complex “Krasnopol” It provides high performance characteristics and combat effectiveness, allowing to expand significantly opportunities cannon artillery. At the same time operating experience, new requirements, promising application requirements tactic complex guided artillery (KUAV), dictated essentially creating a new KUAV (second) generation.
Second generation KUAV characterized by the following principal directions improve these complexes with laser illumination purposes:
• simplify the operation of guided artillery projectile (UAS) in terms of preparation for firing and charging is similar to staffing (neupravlyaemomu) shell;
• increase the combat power of the UAS, ensuring the defeat with a probability of not less than 0,7 current and future tanks;
• increase in the firing range of up to 22-25 km;
• increasing the relative frequency of combat use, including work at night.
Implementation of these ways to improve the development of UAS implemented “Krasnopol-M1” and portable set of automated fire control, compact comprising a laser designator rangefinder with a thermal imager, gyrocompass and personal computers with satellite navigation equipment.
Comparison of performance characteristics of the complex “Krasnopol-M1” the complex “Krasnopol "shows:
• UAS “KRASNOPOL M1 "is formed with dimensions and weight of standard (neupravlyaemыh) shells, allowing its placement in the SAO in regular combat pack without subdivision (in the UAS “Krasnopol”). This allows:
• reduce the time of preparation for shooting 2-3 fold;
• Increase in the rate of 1,5-2 fold;
• increase the number of UAS included in 2-3 fold.
When reducing the size and weight of the UAS “Krasnogol-M1” explosive mass increases to 8,5 kg (compared with 6,5 kg UAS “Krasnopol”), whereby when applying the UAS “Krasnopol-M1” provided defeat most promising tanks with a substantially higher probability.
Hand-held fire control means significantly increases the mobility and efficiency of management combat operation artillery units.
