러시아 국방부의 Army-2024 군사기술 포럼에서 신형 판치르인 판치르-SMDE가 공개됐는데 30mm 대공포를 빼버리고, 차량당 최대 48발의 소형 TKB-1055 미사일을 장착할 수 있게 만들었다고 합니다. 이 미사일은 사거리 0.5km~7km, 최대 고도는 5km라고 합니다. 기존 57E6E 미사일은 12발 장착이 가능하고 사거리는 1.2km~20km입니다.
러시아가 Skynex와 같은 프로그래밍 가능한 탄약을 개발하지 못해 30mm 대공포의 대드론 대응 능력이 떨어진 게 신형 판치르 시스템의 개발 이유로 추정하네요. 나온 지 50년이 넘은 게파드 자주대공포도 신형 탄약을 이용해 드론을 잘 잡아내고 있다고 합니다.

Russia admits failures in “Pantsir” gun system

Russian defense officials have acknowledged the limitations of the gun systems on their “Pantsir” air defense complex, leading to a shift in strategy towards the use of mini-missiles to counter drones.
This was highlighted by Defense Express, which noted the significant technological shortcomings of Russia’s military-industrial complex in comparison to Western technologies from the 1980s.
At the recent “Army-2024” military-technical forum, which was closed to the public by Russia’s Ministry of Defense, the latest version of the Pantsir system, the “Pantsir-SMDE,” was unveiled. Unlike its predecessors, this version is equipped only with missiles, marking the removal of the system’s traditional 30mm automatic cannons. The decision to exclude the cannons is particularly telling, as the Pantsir-SMDE now relies entirely on 12 57E6E missiles.
Interestingly, the Pantsir-SMDE is still being promoted as an effective anti-drone system, but with a new approach. Instead of using traditional artillery, the system is now intended to deploy up to 48 small TKB-1055 missiles per vehicle. These mini-missiles are claimed to be capable of intercepting targets at ranges of 0.5 to 7 kilometers and altitudes of up to 5 kilometers. In comparison, the 57E6E missiles have a range of 1.2 to 20 kilometers and can reach altitudes of up to 15 kilometers.
The Russian military’s decision to abandon the use of 30mm guns for drone interception is based on the reported inefficacy of these cannons against unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). However, this reasoning stands in stark contrast to evidence from the battlefield. For instance, the Gepard anti-aircraft gun system, used by Ukraine, has shown exceptional effectiveness against drones, with high accuracy and low ammunition expenditure. The Gepard system, originally developed in the 1970s and modernized in the 1980s, continues to outperform many contemporary systems in real-world combat scenarios.
In modern anti-drone warfare, artillery-based systems have become a key trend, particularly when combined with munitions featuring programmable detonation, such as the Skynex system. Meanwhile, there is no indication that Russia has developed similar advanced ammunition. The Pantsir system’s reliance on TKB-1055 mini-missiles raises further questions, especially regarding the system’s ability to counter large swarms of drones—a critical requirement in today’s conflicts.
The choice to use mini-missiles for drone interception may reflect more on Russia’s technological struggles than on the effectiveness of this approach. The challenges associated with quickly neutralizing multiple drones remain unresolved, leaving the Pantsir system potentially vulnerable in the face of modern aerial threats.
첫댓글 30×173mm탄도 (유인 전술기 기준으로)파편이 적게 들어가서 ABM으로 할 메리트가 없다는 소릴 듣다가, 드론 대상으로 보다 작은 파편을 많이 넣으니 쏠쏠하게 쓰입니다만... 러시아는 30×165mm라서 체적이 적으니 더욱 힘들겠네요.
SKYNEX는 신형 탄약이 아니라 야전방공시스템이네요 ㅎㅎ
30x170이란 비주류 탄약을 쓰는 K-30에도 통하는 문제가 아닐까 합니다 ㅜㅜ
@위종민 비호는 풍산에서 AHEAD 같은 시한신관 ABM 제안한바 있지만 군에서 관심이 없어서 개발로 이어지지 않았습니다.
지금은 러시아가, 대 드론 전에서, 우크라에 긁히고 있지만
어느 정도 시간이 지나면 고수로 등장하지 않을까요 ?
