pepin1234 Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) Here is a good Video where you can see how is the real way to set a Buk Battery site. Actually we set the Buk Battery Launcher and Radar all together. This is incorrect. One of the most important features of Buk System is the capability to have Radar on board the launcher. So every launcher could be located at large distance from the Radar STR. Also we should set some Tor Units to protect the Radar STR. https://vk.com/video-6054817_148000298 Edited October 24, 2023 by pepin1234 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
ENO Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Interesting! Didn't realize they were so spread out. Gives me some ideas... "ENO" Type in anger and you will make the greatest post you will ever regret. "Sweetest's" Military Aviation Art

pepin1234 Posted February 4, 2014 Author Posted February 4, 2014 Actually we use to set the Buk battery like a Kub (predecessor of Buk System). The Kub System need to be Close from STR unit. The Kub Missiles are guided with the STR Kub unit, so they should be Close. In the case of Buk,The launchers get the Datalink Signal from Command unit, giving the right orientation for the rest of launchers (in case of Buk with Radar onboard) capable of self search and track the targets.

Maverick-X Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 Interesting. As it is, its quite easy to take out the radar to be safe from the buk (as long as you don't close in too much). With the radar and launcher spread out so far, it would be far more challenging to take out a buk site with an A-10. Especially if guarded with one of those nasty tor's... But we don't have what I guess is a dedicated buk tracking radar?
ENO Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 Hmmmmm... actually- a TOR system near the search radar is a good idea. I can't remember though- are they able to shoot down the SU25Ts ARMs?

159th_Viper Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 I can't remember though- are they able to shoot down the SU25Ts ARMs? They should have that capability, yes.
