Upgraded Pantsir-S2 Gun-Missile System to Enter Service in 2015



"We are receiving new systems, above all S-400 and Pantsir complexes… The upgraded Pantsir-S2 has just completed trials and will join the force already before this year is out,” Viktor Gumenny, Commander of Air Defense Troops of the Russian Air Force, told a gathering of veteran air defenders ahead of their professional holiday.

Pantsir-S2, is an updated version of the Pantsir-S1 — a short-range, mobile, fully autonomous air defense system combining two 2A38M 30mm anti-aircraft guns and six 57E6-E ready-to-fire missiles in steered launch containers.

Pantsir-S1 can shoot down airborne targets flying up to Mach 3 (1,000 m/s) at ranges between 1.2 to 20 kilometers and altitudes varying from 5 to 10,000 meters.

The two automatic anti-aircraft guns deliver a maximum rate of fire between 4,500 and 5,000 rounds per minute.

The gun system is able to take out targets at ranges between 200 to 4,000 meters at altitudes between zero and 3,000 meters.

PLA's submarines in Hainan concern US security: columnist



The deployment of three ballistic missile submarines to a PLA naval base on Hainan island in southern China has become a US national security "concern," according to Bill Gertz, a national security columnist for the Washington Free Beacon.

Admiral William Gortney, the commander of the US Northern Command, based in Colorado, said that the three vessels are suspected to be Type 094 Jin-class ballistic missile submarines and are being watched closely. "Even from their own waters, they can reach part of our homeland. Hawaii is part of our homeland and they can reach Hawaii. And then the farther east they go, they can reach more and more of our nation," said Gortney.

Once they are fully deployed with missiles and warheads, they will have the ability to strike continental United States, according to the commander. "They've not loaded their missiles or begun strategic patrols," said a defense official. "But we believe they are likely to begin this year." When asked if they have conducted sea patrols near the US coast, Gortney said that Chinese submarines will be able to conduct underwater operations near US shores in the future.

Since we a confirm user of the NSM, here video show some insight about the NSM





video show NSM with live warhead





video description;-

The Naval Strike Missile (NSM) is an anti-ship and land-attack missile developed by the Norwegian company Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace (KDA).

The original Norwegian name was Nytt sjømålsmissil (literally New sea target missile, indicating that it is the successor of the Penguin missile); the English marketing name Naval Strike Missile was adopted later.
The Naval Strike Missile's initial serial production contract was signed in June 2007.[2] It has been chosen by the Royal Norwegian Navy for its new Fridtjof Nansen class frigates and Skjold class patrol boats. In December 2008 the NSM was selected by the Polish Navy, which ordered total 50 land-based missiles (including 2 for testing) under deals from 2008 and 2011, with delivery planned for 2013-2016.[3][4][5]

The final milestone was completed in June 2011 with tests at Point Mugu.[6] On 12 April 2011, the Norwegian Ministry of Defense announced phase 2 of development.[7]

On Wednesday, October 10, 2012, the Royal Norwegian Navy marked history by firing an NSM anti-ship missile for the first time. The vessel in question was the HNoMS Glimt, Skjold class patrol boat.[8]

On Wednesday, June 5, 2013, the Royal Norwegian Navy for the first time test fired an NSM missile carrying a live warhead against a target vessel. The decommissioned Oslo class frigate HNoMS Trondheim was hit and the weapon functioned as intended.[9][10]

In June 2013 Poland completed the Coastal Missile Division equipped for the beginning with 12 NSM and 23 vehicles on Jelcz chassis (inc. six launchers, two TRS-15C radars, six fire control and three command vehicles).[11] Ultimately, the Coastal Missile Division will be equipped with 48 missiles and six launchers. It is believed, Poland is going to establish second missile division in near future.
The state-of-the-art design and use of composite materials is meant to give the missile sophisticated stealth capabilities. The missile will weigh slightly more than 400 kg (880 lb) and have a range of at least 185 km (100 nm). NSM is designed for littoral waters ("brown water") as well as for open sea ("green and blue water") scenarios.

Like its Penguin predecessor, NSM is able to fly over and around landmasses, travel in sea skim mode, and then make random manoeuvres in the terminal phase, making it harder to stop by enemy countermeasures. While the Penguin is a yaw-to-turn missile, NSM is based on bank-to-turn flight (see Yaw (flight) and flight control).

The target selection technology provides NSM with a capacity for independent detection, recognition, and discrimination of targets at sea or on the coast. This is possible by the combination of an imaging infrared (IIR) seeker and an onboard target database. NSM is able to navigate by GPS, inertial and terrain reference systems.

After being launched into the air by a solid rocket booster which is jettisoned upon burning out, the missile is propelled to its target in high subsonic speed by a turbojet sustainer engine—leaving the 125 kg multi-purpose blast/fragmentation warhead to do its work, which in case of a ship target means impacting the ship at or near the water line.
A multi-role version of the NSM is in development. This missile is called Joint Strike Missile (JSM) and will feature an option for ground strike and a two-way communications line, so that the missile can communicate with the central control room or other missiles in the air. This missile will be integrated with the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II "Joint Strike Fighter". Studies have shown that the F-35 would be able to carry two of these in its internal bays, while additional missiles could be carried externally.

According to Kongsberg, this "multi-role NSM" is the only powered anti-ship missile that will fit inside the F-35's internal bays.[12] Lockheed Martin and Kongsberg have signed a joint-marketing agreement for this air-launched version of the NSM, as well as an agreement committing both parties to integrating the JSM on the F-35 platform.[13][14] The project is funded by Norway and Australia.[15] Kongsberg signed a contract for the first phase of development of the JSM in April, 2009, which is scheduled for completion within 18 months.[16]

China's new early warning aircraft can track 60 targets



KJ-500 early warning aircraft, designed by Shaanxi Aircraft Corporation, is capable of tracking about 60 aircraft within a range of 470 kilometers, according to the Washington-based Strategy Page.

With a round radar dome on the top of the fuselage, the KJ-500 looks more like a US early warning aircraft replica. It is distinguished by a smaller frame and a design based on the Y-9 four-engine turboprop aircraft.

The KJ-500 will eventually replace the People's Liberation Army Air Force's 11 KJ-200, carried by the smaller Y-8 aircraft with a long box-like radar.

In addition to the aircraft under Chinese service, three export versions of the KJ-200, known as the ZDK-03, have been provided to the Pakistan Air Force.

The development of Chinese early warning aircraft began in the 1990s when the United States stopped Israel from selling the Phalcon, developed with American technology, to China. Around the same time, Beijing purchased four Russian-built A-50 early warning aircraft, developed based on Il-76 cargo plane, and converted them to equip radar systems similar to the KJ-200. China is not satisfied with the technology yet, but claims that it has a better phased array radar system than Phalcon.

Iran to Launch Home-Made Submarine Soon




Iranian Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari says the Islamic Republic will soon launch a new domestically-manufactured submarine.

"The Navy's new submarine will be launched soon," Iran's state-run news agency quoted Rear Admiral Sayyari as saying. The Submarine 'Fateh' (triumphant) was tested in a joint military forces maneuver in January 2015.

Iran is also working on a new destroyer and expressed hope that the vessel would join the Navy by the end of the current Iranian year (March 19, 2016), he said.

The Iranian Navy commander noted that the new destroyer is armed with "a collection of missiles and torpedoes" and will be displayed to the public soon. The new destroyer features a variety of new military equipment and weapons.

"Naturally, the power of Fateh's missiles and torpedoes are more than Qadir (class) submarines (which are equipped with sonar-evading technology and can fire missiles and torpedoes simultaneously)," Lieutenant Commander of the Iranian Navy Rear Admiral Gholam Reza Khadem Biqam said.

In February, the Iranian Navy announced that it was building a new hi-tech submarine with the capability of launching missiles and torpedoes.

"The submarine, named Be'sat, which is now in designing stage, will be 60 meters long and has the operational power for missions in the depth of 300 meters," it said.

Iran has so far launched different classes of domestically-built advanced submarines including Fateh, Ghadir, Qaem, Nahang, Tareq and Sina.

The Islamic Republic has also manufactured different types of destroyers.
