Air Force first showed Frankensam SSK: how the complex will solve the air defense problem (photo)

In the published pictures, weapons are covered with camouflage nets, but analysts managed to find out some details about it. For example, instead of four missiles 9m38, the same RIM-7 is placed in the starting mechanism. The Air Force officially showed the project of hybrid flame defense systems Frankensam. Defense Express spoke in detail about this weapons. Frankensam became known in October last year, and in January it knocked out its first goal.

However, there were no official photographs of the anti-aircraft missile complex. The East Air Command has now demonstrated what the Buk's SCC has with RIM-7 SEA Sparrow. Analysts write that although the self -propelled fire installation 9A310 is covered by a camouflage mesh in the published personnel, some details were able to find out.

"In particular, the starting mechanism has remained original or with minor changes and instead of four missiles 9m38 it now accommodates a similar amount of RIM-7 in transport and powerful containers," the message reads. It was also noticeable that the radar equipment 9A310 had no significant changes in the radar equipment. That is, a radio transparent cap of the 9C35 radar station remained in place. Separate analysts have paid attention to a few more details in published photos.

It is about destroyed goals - two reconnaissance drones and a shock drone "Lancet". Accordingly, this indicates that the Frankensam anti-aircraft missile complex can work quite effectively even for insignificant purposes. "With RIM-7 rockets," Beech action "has declined a little because most sources indicate its range of 20 km, while three times more difficult Soviet missile 9m38 is up to 30 km.

But it should be noted that the main problem is the issue - Where to take 9m38 rockets, which if they are produced, only in the Russian Federation . . . The Frankensam project solves a huge problem of Ukrainian air defense - where to take rockets for Soviet SDRs, " - the message reads. We will remind, on March 22 it was reported that Ukrainian innovations in the form of drones and air defense Frankensam changed the modern conflict, as stated in ISW.
