The domestic military-industrial complex does not slow down the pace of development, and therefore, in recent years, a number of innovative technologies have been developed that can increase the state's defense capability. Moreover, developments are being carried out in various directions - from precision equipment to ultra-modern rocket launchers, and some of them are unique in their kind. Your attention is the 3 most modern and significant domestic military technologies that strengthen the power of the domestic army.
1. Submarine noise cancellation technology
The issue of reducing the noise of submarines is very acute for military engineers, since this is what improves the "invisibility" of technology, which means that it becomes more effective. The domestic military-industrial complex has been confidently holding the lead in the development of technologies designed to solve this problem since Soviet times. Among the Russian nuclear submarines, the most quiet is the submarine of the project 955 "Borey" - they emit only 108 decibels of noise. This technique remains the most invisible to foreign radars.
A vivid confirmation of this can be considered the perfect transition of the nuclear submarine missile carrier "Alexander Nevsky" from the Northern Fleet to the Pacific Fleet in 2015. Then the American ships and equipment did not manage to track the Russian nuclear submarine. And the submarine, meanwhile, being completely invisible, proceeded unhindered through the Bering Strait, passing even along the coast of the United States of America.
2. Technology of hypersonic weapons
Another modern trend in the development of the domestic military-industrial complex is the development of hypersonic weapons. And not so long ago, the project of the world's only hypersonic missile 3M22 "Zircon" was presented. Not so long ago, they revealed some of the technical characteristics that are planned to be incorporated into a super-powerful weapon - even on paper they look very impressive.
The command intends to equip both surface and submarine fleets with Zircon hypersonic missiles: in this case, we are talking about multipurpose nuclear submarines, frigates and corvettes, as well as large anti-submarine ships. At the same time, experts do not exclude the possibility of developing a land-based version of the Zircons.
Another project of hypersonic missile weapons, which has already been implemented, is the Avangard complex. It is equipped with an intercontinental ballistic missile, and is also capable of "flying in dense layers of the atmosphere at an intercontinental range at hypersonic speed" - as the president said during the presentation of the weapon. And already at the end of 2019, the complex was already on alert.
3. Technologies of electronic warfare
Given the trend towards an increase in the importance of the work of unmanned aerial vehicles, increased attention to the development of electronic warfare technologies is completely justified. And the pace of development of new technologies makes it possible to improve the electronic warfare systems that are already in service with the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, and create new ones.
Perhaps the most famous development in this direction is the Divnomorye-U complex. Its functions include: suppression of radar systems of enemy aircraft, conducting electronic reconnaissance in airspace, as well as identifying and suppressing communication channels of armored vehicles of a potential enemy. On average, Russian electronic warfare systems are capable of suppressing the onboard radar systems of enemy aircraft of various types at a distance of up to 400 km.
Domestic arms business does not lag behind large military equipment at the pace of development: Weapon record: the new domestic sniper rifle will be the most long-range in the world
