Tandem A-50 and SPRC C-400: Journalists estimated the likelihood of using a new Armed Forces Scheme

Russia claims that the most long-range missile for SCRC C-400, 40H6, uses combined targeting and can be driven from the A-50 aircraft with the DLLO system. Roszma claims that 24 allegedly beaten Ukrainian aircraft reported by Russian Defense Sergey Shoiga were destroyed in the tandem of a long-range A-50 and SPRC C-400. How it is likely to use such a scheme for detecting a goal, writes Defense Express.

Russian propaganda media noted that the S-400 shooting was at a maximum range at a height of 1 km. In addition, new warheads of anti -aircraft managed missiles were used. The most long-range missile for the C-400 SPR is 40H6 (380 km), which uses a combined active and semi-active guidance on the target.

Probably, the head of the missile self -alignment uses a semi -active mode (receiving a reflected signal) in the middle area of ​​flight, and when approaching the target turns on its own active guidance. According to journalists, this is possible and indeed allows the aiming firing beyond the direct visibility of the target of the ground radar station. That is, if the aircraft from a height of 1 km transmits the targeting of the ground radar, its radio horizon increases to 140 km.

It is believed that A-50 can transfer to the Earth coordinates targets that can be detected at a distance of up to 400 km, although these declared characteristics are doubtful about military experts. But whether the radar "bumblebee" can be at the disposal of the Russian army, to illuminate the targets for the homage head 40n6 in the passive mode is unknown. This characteristic in the description of the radar, available in open sources, is not mentioned.

The 40n6 anti -aircraft missiles were adopted in the Russian army in 2018. But after the supply of these missiles to military units began in 2020. It is known that the Russian Security Service plans to put the armies about one thousand 40n6 by 2027. 40H6 characteristics: Available goals for 40H6: Recall that the Russian Air Force received a modernized Dlo A-50U aircraft.
