Thanks for sharing Kusch. Actually this is the CHEESE BOARD 96L6 3D and Target aquisition Radar for the S-400 complex. Its based on a Ural-532361 Truck ( 8x8 ). This radar is manufactured by Lira KB.

 

Setup time: 5 Minutes.

 

One antenna turn: 12 seconds. Minimum target RCS: 0,02m^2.

 

Radar range: 5-300 km.

 

Maximum target aquisition at a given time: 100 targets with speeds between 30-2800 m/s.

 

All targets are autmaticly priorized for their threat level.

Is that already deployed?! Perhaps some parts of western Russia are covered by S-400 as an answer to current U.S. missile shield idea in Poland?!

 

OK no politics here but tell me Kusch, what's the general opinion your coutrymen on this missile deployment in Poland idea?!

[AlexHunter]

Rockets of middle distance for a complex S-400 for 4 rockets in one container only 4 containers with 16 rockets or 4 rockets of long-range. Every ZRK provides a fire to 10 aims with aiming on them to 20 rockets. In composition ZRS there is 6-8 ZRK. On the photo of rocket of middle distance:

First units are deployed around Moscow Vekkinho.

Opinions as always are divided. Me? I don't care. There are advantages and disadvantages of having missile shield on our land.

Could you please name at least one advantage of having it in Poland...?

Exactly.

Thank you very much AlexHunter!

Interesting thing about the S-400 is that it can work together with passive SIGINT complexes like Vera, Tamara and Kolchuga. You dont need to turn your radar on to know whats going on around you. Also a data feed from the A-50 MAINSTAY can be used.

One antenna turn: 12 seconds.

 

Radar range: 5-300 km.

Mmmm, that sounds like a slow antenna turning rate for that range.....

The 96L6 Radar is mainly used for long range surveillance or for aquisition of low flying targets / objects. In my opinion this radar wont be turning around all the time but simply scan a designated part of the sky.

 

There are a couple of different radars around a S-400 site.

More news but few weeks older can be found here:

It's Moscow based so I assume it's the same regiment as in Kusch's pics!

Fiftyfifty ;)

So I thought,

thanks m8!

...and the detail below that I found seems to back up your opinion. At least 2 rev rates - either 12 secs or 6secs for low level only.

 

Operating frequency C-band (4-6GHz)

Range 5-300km

Maximum target elevation up to 60º

Maximum number of tracks up to 100 targets

Time from target detection to availability of target data:

- For elevations under 1.5º 12s

- For elevations over 1.5º 21s

 

All-round search performance

Azimuth 360º

Elevation 0-20º

Information update rate:

- in the low zone (0-1.5º) 6s

- in the upper zone (1.5-20º) 12s

 

Sector search

Azimuth up to 120º

Elevation 0-60º

Time taken: sector search up to 8s

Time taken: lower sector search 5.5s

Time taken: full search cycle 13.5s

 

Low-altitude target search

Azimuth 360º

Elevation 0-1.5º

Search time 6s

 

 

I love the names that NATO come up with. CHEESE BOARD, thats making me feel hungry now. Fancy some cheese, Grommit?

The system also can destroy stealth aircraft, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles, and is effective at ranges up to 3,500 km (2,200 miles) and speeds up to 4.8 km (3 miles) per second.

 

Dude, your sources...

At 3 miles/second (wtf, lol, that's about 10k miles/hour) the missile would still need about 700 seconds (or 12 minutes) of full thrust to burn through 2200 miles. Something is really messed up with these numbers. ;)

[topol-m]

Obviously these stats have been messed up. The range depending on the modification is from 200 to up to 400 km for the long range missile 40N6 (twice the range of the MIM-104 Patriot, and 2-2.5 times greater than the previous S-300PMU system). The mentioned "3500 km" is the range of potential S-400 targets - ballistic missiles with similar operational ranges and not the range of the S-400 missile itself.
