"Miracle-Radar" Sentinel from the US: Will the technology of the issue with the arrival of ballistic missiles of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation

American technologies want to get before massive rocket strokes of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The command hopes that the station will better find hostile goals. Military experts point out that some radars are not enough, and the means of destruction are also needed. The focus has found out how the equipment will help combat air threats in deficiency of air defense systems. The Ukrainian Military Command needs radar of the near Sentinel radius.

Technologies should help track ballistic missiles, drones, aviation and other goals. It is important to get radar stations (radar stations (radar) before winter before possible rocket strokes of Russians on civilian facilities and energy infrastructure, Politico reported. In Kiev, it is said that the supply of radars will help survive winter.

New stations will provide more coverage of the territories of Ukraine, they will be suitable for the protection of factories, where Ukrainians will produce their own weapons, the authors of the material emphasize. The Ukrainian military used radars An/MPQ-64 Sentinel in the Donbass, which was known in April last year. Two of the Armed Forces radar systems received from the United States in one of the help packages.

The American radar has high resistance to electronic warfare and anti -radar missiles. Sentinel interacts with the architectures of several air defense systems and about. It is also modified to improve the detection and classification of goals, including drones and winged missiles. The maximum range of object detection is up to 75 kilometers, but efficient work occurs at a distance of 40 kilometers.

Sentinel radars will help the Armed Forces to track the launches of Russian rockets from the areas of enemy aviation or from land installations. They are also capable of tracking the trajectory of the flight and effectively bringing the air defense missiles on it, says Focus Military Expert, Defense Express consulting company Valery Ryabikh. "In addition to the radars, effective means of damage to the air goals," the specialist adds.

Kiev receives not only American but also German TRML 4D radars from Hensoldt, which are part of the ITIS-T air defense system, the expert draws attention. Under a contract worth more than 100 million euros, Ukraine had to receive six such radars. The estimated price of one radar is more than 16. 6 million euros. Ballistic goals only knock down the Patriot PPO complex, but there are only two these installations in the Armed Forces.

Perhaps the third battery is on the road or already put on combat duty, says the reserve colonel, ex-speaker of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Vladislav Seleznev. "Ukraine is the largest country on the European continent, so it is obvious that even three batteries will not solve the problem. The presence of radar systems in the Armed Forces that will track the launches - comments the military focus.

The event is not in a hurry to transfer its technologies, and there is very few of its own opportunities for full protection of the sky. S-300 or "beech" complexes, which are in service with the Armed Forces, are not capable of reflecting enemy ballet, Seleznyov. This assessment also agrees to the Colonel of the Armed Forces in the reserve, the instructor pilot Roman Svitan. The radar without a missile component will not change the situation in the air globally.

"Well, he will define Balistics, and further what? So our military leadership did not order it. This year it was needed to expand the possibilities of Patriot or Samp-T complexes in terms ", - he explains the focus. We will remind, researchers of the Shanghai University of Science and Technology have developed a fundamentally new radar. The technology is able to find rotating air goals. Poland was going to buy new Ltamds radars in the American company RTX (Raytheon) this September.
