Russia was literally founded by Vikings
What the hell do you think ''Rus'' means originally in Old Slavic?
And what does ''Varyag'' mean in modern Russian?

Re: BUK SAM system Thread
The missile seems to be similar to the naval one but being angled it will for sure be hot launched.
If it is hot launched then that would be a different missile so a new type which isn't good.

Re: BUK SAM system Thread
The first brigade of Buk-M3 anti-aircraft missile systems in the Russian Armed Forces has been deployed in the Southern Military District. As sources in the military department told Izvestia, the formation of a brigade armed with Buk-M3 medium-range anti-aircraft missile systems was completed at the end of last year. The unit received a set of equipment, personnel were formed.
Currently, the new brigade is part of the 8th Guards Combined Arms Order of Lenin Army of the Southern Military District. Its divisions are deployed in the Volgograd and Rostov regions. The G8's likely adversary is NATO's southern flank forces. If necessary, the army can be quickly transferred to the west.
Commander-in-Chief of the Ground Forces Oleg Salyukov has already reported that over the past year, the combat fleets of air defense units have replenished with modern anti-aircraft systems Buk-MZ, Tor-M2 and the Arctic Tor-M2-DT. According to the general of the army, this technique occupies a leading position in the world in its classes.
Experts emphasize that these are defensive systems and their appearance is designed to strengthen the Russian southern borders.
“In the light of this, all statements that Russia is allegedly going to attack someone and is plotting aggressive actions look implausible,” said Sergey Ordzhonikidze, former Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation.
"Buk-M3" form the basis of fire weapons for air defense of the ground forces in this class. Brigades equipped with new complexes are part of the combined arms armies. They should serve as a mobile reserve that can be quickly deployed to the most vulnerable areas.
The system can work on targets at a distance of up to 70 km and at an altitude of up to 35 km. Such characteristics make it effective in the fight against all types of air targets, including cruise missiles.

"Buk" sees everything: the south of Russia was covered with modern air defense systems

The buk threas is in the ground forces part of the forum.
The official range of export buk-M3 Viking is 70km. It wouldn't surprise me if russian version is 100km.
The missile is close to the S-350's 9m962 missile in terms of size which has a range close to 150km in russian version.

Re: BUK SAM system Thread
Iranian Bavar-373 is claimed to have a 250 km range.
It uses a Sayyad-4 missiles, which are a follow up or RIM-66 Standard.
Standard is a direct equivalent of 9K37, and shares the mass, size, speed, and all the other principal parameters.
Sayyad-3 already jumped over 120 km range, and that is not conquested claim.
Now, how do you think, Russkies can do the same as Iranians or better?

TMA1 wrote:I have heard the range of 70km has to do not as much with missile limitations as it has to do with radar range. Could be wrong on this, tho. Also Ive noted the shtil 1 missile looks a lot like the buk m3.
Radar limitation was for buk-m1 and m2 because they used semi active radar missiles. The launcher need to lock with its radar on the target.
Buk-M3 use active radar missiles which means you can track a target and launch your missiles without any warning for the target.
Just for the records.
That's good but 300km away your ground radar can see only planes flying 15-20km in altitude. You need a very good IADS to really use such systems.
That's true for S-400 and patriots too. Having long range missiles is useless for stand alone systems.
