<br />
BMPT-72 is a breakthrough modernization of the world-famous URALVAGONZAVOD T-72 tank. When designing BMPT-72, engineers relied on experience of creation and exploitation of BMPT, also known as Terminator for its gun power.<br />
Just as its basic model, Terminator-2 is a multipurpose tank and infantry fire support vehicle that can operate in any combat mode, complicated geographic area, light conditions and against any enemy. Still, it has some new features: upgraded fire-control system and turret weapon station protection.<br />
The breakthrough vehicle is built on the platform of the most widely manufactured and used T-72 tank. Given that, the key advantage that BMPT-72 gives to all the counties that operate T-72 tanks, is that they can promptly and at minimum cost upgrade their armies to ultra-modern level, enhance its capacity, mobility, protection and armament without purchasing new high cost machines.<br />
Terminator-2 is to premiere in a multimedia lightshow at a 900 m2 presentation centre built especially for that purpose. Foreign visitors and official delegation are expected to attend the presentation. </div>

At Russia Arms EXPO 2013 (RAE 2013), the IX International Exhibition of Arms, Military Equipment, and Ammunition, Avtodizel OAO (YaMZ) will present its new family of YaMZ-530 midsize inline engines for special-purpose vehicles. The factory will present two new engines in 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder versions.<br />
The engines meet the key requirements to modern special-purpose products such as high output, reliability, maintainability, reliable start in cold temperatures, air tightness, and multifuel capacity.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw-OsraJpBVJphBvpmK0g-OuvFDJ-NAT503g8qMV0cqyjDjQTEc49XZhxuU5SMk9UerwfAgMGDdke-8F01HjEdvZDfHVxpZFWoNR0jOWkSVVDvWUu5lBbESHGNoP7lUR2vG5VETlnaWt73/s1600/%D0%A4%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%BE-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw-OsraJpBVJphBvpmK0g-OuvFDJ-NAT503g8qMV0cqyjDjQTEc49XZhxuU5SMk9UerwfAgMGDdke-8F01HjEdvZDfHVxpZFWoNR0jOWkSVVDvWUu5lBbESHGNoP7lUR2vG5VETlnaWt73/s400/%D0%A4%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%BE-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>

At Russia Arms EXPO 2013 (RAE 2013), the IX International Exhibition of Arms, Military Equipment, and Ammunition, ACMAT Defense, one of the world leaders in the design and manufacturing of combat armored vehicles and light trucks, will present its new lineup of the BASTION, VLRA, and ALTV tactical combat vehicles.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZvCGTwwY5SsyQYyUiV5H1tB1S9Oxxm5CR7JEhBnuYxTDBmiDof8a7SMtxtWaK5-_6bjADKRROmUVuCfhbRfsHmVmRkY5aIrxL8sSNqJ7HHRiE7GhljvLL5vbBr29uLT9FxKnJp92L5xNk/s1600/bastion-apc-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZvCGTwwY5SsyQYyUiV5H1tB1S9Oxxm5CR7JEhBnuYxTDBmiDof8a7SMtxtWaK5-_6bjADKRROmUVuCfhbRfsHmVmRkY5aIrxL8sSNqJ7HHRiE7GhljvLL5vbBr29uLT9FxKnJp92L5xNk/s400/bastion-apc-1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Launched in 2010, the BASTION is designed on the underpinnings of the VLRA2 all-terrain truck. Combining great mobility, protection, and high carrying capacity, it is suited for various missions in extreme conditions. This all-wheel-drive truck can be used in military transport operations, by internal security forces, medics, and so on. Its high internal volume allows it to carry 10 to 12 people and protect them in accordance with STANAG 4569.<br />
At RAE 2013, visitors will see different versions of the BASTION: BASTION APC, BASTION PATSAS, and BASTION APC Extreme Mobility, all of which can be further upgraded to suit individual customer needs. The BASTION PATSAS was designed by ACMAT Defense specialists on the base of experience acquired in conflicts in Africa and Middle East. The vehicle's open top allows it to carry heavy weapon systems, missile launchers, and surveillance systems. Like other open-top ACMAT Defense vehicles, the BASTION PATSAS is a unique solution for autonomous special operation missions requiring maximum tactical mobility and firepower.<br />
The Bastion APC Extreme Mobility with a 320-hp engine was launched in 2012. Unlike the standard version, the new model has independent suspensions and armor protection ranging from level 1 to level 3. Its payload varies respectively from 3 tons (level 1) to 2.5 tons (level 2) and to 1.5 tons (level 3), while its mine protection rises to level 2a/2b. The Bastion APC Extreme Mobility carries eight troops and two crew.<br />
Founded in 1984, ACMAT Defense became part of RENAULT TRUCKS Defense in 2006. ACMAT Defense is the manufacturer of the famous VLRA tactical transport vehicle family fielded by the French Army (over 1,200 units) and many other armed forces.<br />

At Russia Arms EXPO 2013 (RAE 2013), the IX International Exhibition of Arms, Military Equipment, and Ammunition, the Design Bureau of Transport Machinery will present its PTS-4 tracked transporter and the SPM special firefighting vehicle.<br />
Armed forces have always relied on amphibious vehicles; they are used not only by engineer and pontoon units to cross water obstacles, but also by marines and paratroopers. Development of the PTS-4 began in 2009 by appointment of Russia's Defense Ministry, and the vehicle passed state trials in 2011. The new amphibious transport vehicle is expected to be included in the state defense order for year 2014.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeXrlwRgNf7zRlAC5DayGTBh9-_P8nZMP6l_rnvQxK8YILFKJvlvk1_F_hGt2YjGHWvgcXQTnrvhY_yPQtDjpoHymhETW2TyKMgR3uUM91M79AuzzO-UEKTidgQP_f7tPfvKV3p7n6kmwK/s1600/1357817987_805071_46.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="236" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeXrlwRgNf7zRlAC5DayGTBh9-_P8nZMP6l_rnvQxK8YILFKJvlvk1_F_hGt2YjGHWvgcXQTnrvhY_yPQtDjpoHymhETW2TyKMgR3uUM91M79AuzzO-UEKTidgQP_f7tPfvKV3p7n6kmwK/s400/1357817987_805071_46.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
The PTS-4 utilizes stock components from current tanks: tracks and torsion bars from the T-80 and clutches and gearbox from the T-72. The vehicle is designed to take across water obstacles artillery systems, infantry fighting vehicles, APCs, tow trucks, cars, personnel, and various cargo. The PTS-4 is powered by an 840-horsepower tank engine; its off-road capability is similar to that of the T-80 tank. With a weight of just over 33 tons, the PTS-4 has very high cargo capacity: 12 tons on land and 18 tons on water, with a top speed of 60 km/h and 15 km/h, respectively.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Another exhibit from the Omsk-based factory will be a special firefighting vehicle designed to fight fires and carry out rescue operations in arsenals, warehouses, and ammunition depots, to clear out passages to fire sites, and to plow fire lines against forest fires. The decision on the need to have such firefighting vehicles at all arsenals, bases, and ammunition depots was taken by the Defense Ministry three years ago, after several cases of munitions exploding in warehouse fires.<br />
The SPM firefighting vehicle was developed and built at Design Bureau of Transport Machinery on the base of the T-72 and T-80 battle tanks for the Defense Ministry of the Russian Federation.<br />
With a maximum weight of 60 tons, the SPM is operated by a crew of three, protected inside an airtight and heat-insulated cabin. An 840-horsepower engine allows the SPM to develop a top speed of 40 km/h on paved roads. The machine carries up to 25 cubic meters of water and fire suppressant. Its pumps can throw water and foam to a maximum distance of 100 meters. A unique feature of the SPM is its ability to be operated remotely, ensuring maximum safety of the personnel in extreme situations.<br />

At Russia Arms EXPO 2013 (RAE 2013), the IX International Exhibition of Arms, Military Equipment, and Ammunition, the Omsk-based Design Bureau of Transport Machinery will present combat vehicles that make up the TOS-1A heavy flamethrower system.<br />
The TOS-1A heavy flamethrower system is designed to provide fire support for infantry and armor and destroying personnel and entrenchments, as well as armor and combat vehicles, in various kinds of offensive and defensive action. The system is used by the CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Defense) forces of the Russian Army.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkUrUYpmXl9FaWE0VYThoRVyArEvB8GTB9ObLT2CxE4odjcQr0V-LLU7KzSSyrVaOmcbKHvmvlTwbFbAw_qsdLKLdpIFl7BTO4xhGFVicit7p2BO7mDD4X-Ac7XJwVgmvJBEQk1_1o2J56/s1600/ae41e5d1d1331f2daa7a2ead0a88eb22.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="242" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkUrUYpmXl9FaWE0VYThoRVyArEvB8GTB9ObLT2CxE4odjcQr0V-LLU7KzSSyrVaOmcbKHvmvlTwbFbAw_qsdLKLdpIFl7BTO4xhGFVicit7p2BO7mDD4X-Ac7XJwVgmvJBEQk1_1o2J56/s400/ae41e5d1d1331f2daa7a2ead0a88eb22.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
The TOS-1A consists of a total of three combat vehicles: the BM-1 launch vehicle and two TZM-T resupply vehicles, all three mounted on a tank chassis.<br />
The BM-1 fires 220-mm unguided rockets from a rotating and tilting platform with 24 launching tubes. An important feature of the BM-1 is its great accuracy and automatic ballistic computer. Depending on the situation, the system can fire single rockets or pairs of rockets from two barrels at once. Full salvo is fired in 6 seconds, and maximum range is 6 kilometers. The machine can be readied to fire at a visible target in 90 seconds from coming to a full stop. Even less time – up to 50 seconds – is required to leave the area after firing.<br />
The tank chassis gives the BM-1 tactical mobility and armor protection on par with those of a tank, and allows the machine to occupy advantageous firing positions quickly. Built-in bulldozer equipment for self-entrenching enhances the system's combat survivability. Manned by a crew of three – commander, gun operator, and driver – the BM-1 is fitted with a collective crew protection system from weapons of mass destruction, including its chemical and nuclear varieties. The BM-1 weighs in at 44.3 tons and develops a top speed of 60 km/h.<br />
The TOS-1A system saw combat as part of the 40 Army in Afghanistan and the Chechen Republic.<br />
The other important part of the combat group is the TZM-T resupply vehicle, which is essentially a set of reloading and unloading devices mounted on a T-72A tank chassis. Its telescope crane lifts up to 1000 kg, and the total loading time is no more than 24 minutes. The TZM-T is equipped with a thermal smoke device capable of setting up a solid smoke screen of up to 250-400 meters.<br />
The TZM-T is manned by a crew of three – commander, operator, and driver. With a weight of 3 tons, it develops a top speed of 60 km/h. It shares its power plant, electric system, and fire extinguishing and WMD protection systems with the BM-1 module, as well as the built-in bulldozer equipment.<br />
The system is built by the Design Bureau of Transport Machinery, part of the Uralvagonzavod Corporation. The Bureau specializes in the design and production of combat and engineering equipment of various types, double-purpose products, equipment for the oil and gas industry, and carbon and manganese castings. Since 1958, upon orders of Russia's Defense Ministry, the Bureau has completed over 85 research and development projects, with over 40 types of armored vehicles accepted by the Armed Forces.<br />

At Russia Arms EXPO 2013 (RAE 2013), the IX International Exhibition of Arms, Military Equipment, and Ammunition, NPO Pribor JSC will present a wide exhibition of its products. Among others, NPO Pribor, Russia's leader in the development and manufacturing of small-caliber ammunition for automatic cannon systems, is bringing the 40-mm automatic grenade launcher complex Balkan.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8aSFjxKu9zoRIgBD5tQh4DRS4RrXZvxYPJyoExKZc57ss0zexQ9JXl0eugsiXphouePUjJKu6sPoQIDAcxY0c3v-s70ZJGFb70WViiwvfmzmFqV08S4hfqYFJGWHcB2tDeYER44IARt7x/s1600/0e02037f52a28ad31f06eece0f66249e5053ee84511756.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="205" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8aSFjxKu9zoRIgBD5tQh4DRS4RrXZvxYPJyoExKZc57ss0zexQ9JXl0eugsiXphouePUjJKu6sPoQIDAcxY0c3v-s70ZJGFb70WViiwvfmzmFqV08S4hfqYFJGWHcB2tDeYER44IARt7x/s400/0e02037f52a28ad31f06eece0f66249e5053ee84511756.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
A distinguishing feature of the system is the ammunition it uses. Its special ‘caseless’ round allows using nearly twice as much explosives in one 40-mm round, which greatly increases fragmentation and helps reduce weight of the gun while increasing its firepower. The mounted grenade launcher weighs just 32 kg and provides a firing rate of up to 400 rounds/minute with a range of up to 2.5 kilometers. Each belt for the Balkan contains 20 grenades, with 2 belts in each belt drum, which makes it a formidable weapon. The grenade launcher is mounted on a tripod with the operator’s seat attached to the rear and comes standard with an optical sight.<br />
One of the latest developments also to be presented by NPO Pribor at RAE 2013 are 30-mm automatic cannon rounds with plastic driving bands. Projectiles with plastic driving bands increase barrel service life up to three time and ensure more efficient use of ammunition.<br />
Founded in 1941, NPO Pribor is now Russia's leading developer and manufacturer of small-caliber ammunition for automatic cannons, as well as rounds for automatic tripod-mounted, handheld, and attached grenade launchers for all branches of Russian Armed Forces. NPO Pribor is part of the Rostec State Corporation.<br />

At Russia Arms EXPO 2013 (RAE 2013), the IX International Exhibition of Arms, Military Equipment, and Ammunition, the Serov Mechanical Plant JSC will present a line of protective apparel that allows working in high and low temperatures, in water, and in chemically aggressive environments. The Serov Mechanical Plant is well-known in the country with its products for mining, geological exploration, and oil-and-gas industries. Its clothing branch is the 'youngest' at the plant, yet it has already gained respect and popularity among customers.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinDduHo9pqcao-zQtr20HYrrB9KHtiP4onhDNu4t4AgwKoP7nC01OtJqTa_JS8NFQEQOK2X3McUOups_WQG_JCnTRMGzIEm_8qv4vw1-Wce1QoTbSotZJ3Yi6RbhBQSyulLXnJhHy-EqEh/s1600/plant.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinDduHo9pqcao-zQtr20HYrrB9KHtiP4onhDNu4t4AgwKoP7nC01OtJqTa_JS8NFQEQOK2X3McUOups_WQG_JCnTRMGzIEm_8qv4vw1-Wce1QoTbSotZJ3Yi6RbhBQSyulLXnJhHy-EqEh/s400/plant.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Its products enjoy well-deserved attention of Russian and international customers at weapons and ammunitions exhibitions as part of the Plant's general exposition. Protective apparel from the Serov Mechanical Plant first appeared before the public in 2003, at the II Defense and Protection exhibition in Nizhniy Tagil.<br />
The skills of its specialists and modern equipment, coupled with affordable pricing and high product quality, allow this branch of the Serov Mechanical Plant to stand strong against the competition. Established supply connections with Ivanovo and Yekaterinburg textile factories, along with an eye for the latest designs and technologies, allow the management to maintain an efficient production cycle.<br />
Established in 1931, the Serov Mechanical Plant now stands among Russia's top manufacturers of tools and equipment for mining, geological exploration, and oil-and-gas industries.

<br />
Today’s Russia needs an army that is capable of responding appropriately to modern threats. The strength of the Russian army and of Russian weapons needs to lie not in their quantity but in their quality, not in their firepower but in their intellectual supremacy.<br />
The Russia Arms Expo exhibition, which has been staged in Nizhny Tagil since 1999, serves to address this objective. It strengthens the country’s defence capability and is not only a modern exhibition venue but also an excellent testing range, where the boldest and most promising projects can be tested.<br />
It is no accident that the exhibition is growing in prestige year by year among Russian and foreign companies and seeing an increase in its reach and the number of participants. Each exhibition is another step forward in improving special technical equipment and arms and strengthening Russia’s defence capability.<br />
The Russian state’s military power has grown and become stronger on the basis of weapons, guns and tanks made in the Ural region. I am sure that Sverdlovsk Region – the “bastion of the state” – has always been, is now and always will be a strong shield and defender of the Fatherland.<br />
I wish the participants and organisers of the exhibition fruitful work, useful contacts, positive outcomes, and new successes and triumphs in their work to strengthen Russia’s defence and economic might.</div>

<div>
Organizers have released a detailed agenda of the top event of the year in the defense industry, Russia Arms EXPO 2013 (RAE 2013), the IX International Exhibition of Arms, Military Equipment, and Ammunition, which is taking place September 25-28 in Nizhniy Tagil. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9rqPYc4zqCgDfE4uFSliFBKZ0VDjpif0M5rve1AXN3fM3xXF5GKKBa_BeNah5IZ90OZvkdEuD_t4zOjLMghFVSIlIeG4IwEsPmdDbkrbXkltkHnkCUzI7zENCXFN9mcym3okpeE-loIe2/s1600/rae11.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9rqPYc4zqCgDfE4uFSliFBKZ0VDjpif0M5rve1AXN3fM3xXF5GKKBa_BeNah5IZ90OZvkdEuD_t4zOjLMghFVSIlIeG4IwEsPmdDbkrbXkltkHnkCUzI7zENCXFN9mcym3okpeE-loIe2/s640/rae11.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For the first time at an international exhibition of this level, the agenda will feature a special set of activities aimed at discussing international legal aspects of the defense market. Organizers plan to involve in those discussions top Russian and international experts in international security, political scientists, and top officials from the UN and other international organizations. </div>
<div>
Besides, like before, the focus of RAE-2013 will rest on issues specific to the military industry. On this track, the discussion will touch upon issues such as modernization of Russia's defense industry production facilities, financing the state order, developing the talent pool for the industry, utilizing private-public partnership in the development of new-generation military hardware, and so on. The plenary session will focus on implementation peculiarities of the Federal Targeted Program for Defense Industry Reformation in 2011—2020 and the issue of innovations in the defense industry. Other subjects on the agenda include the 2020 State Armaments Program and its potential impact on the new look of Russia's armed forced. Experts will also discuss ways of cooperation with international producers of military hardware and high-tech equipment. </div>
<div>
Separate lectures and seminars in the military-industry block of the RAE-2013 agenda will be devoted to specific issues of tank construction and UAV design, military personnel protection, energy efficiency and sustainability in military production, procurements, peculiarities of investing in defense industry, and others. </div>
<div>
The international legal block at RAE-2013, focused on ways of maintaining peace, preventing military conflicts, and boosting state control over armament exports, will consist of two exert discussions. The first one, titled International Peace and Security: the Philosophy of Crisis Response, will deal with the subject of international security, including the Responsibility to Protect initiative, as well as preventive diplomacy, and the role of peacekeeping missions organized without bias and guided by humanitarian principles. </div>
<div>
The other part, named Global Arms Market: the Outline of Fair Trade, will gather together experts who are interested in the strengthening of relevant international regimes and abolishing one-sided sanctions against military product manufacturers as an instrument of unfair competition, and who are ready to discuss openly the national practice of arms exports and international legal norms in this sphere. </div>
<div>
"The combination of military-industrial and international-legal blocks on the RAE-2013 agenda shows the multifaceted nature of the event, which manages to be of military, industrial, academic, and international political nature at the same time", says Alexei Zharich, Chief Communications Officer at Uralvagonzavod, the General Coordinator of the exhibition. In his opinion, all of the above will further add to the growth of the Nizhniy Tagil exhibition as a truly global event.</div>

Kornet-EM multi-purpose long-range missile complex will be among the highlights on the KBP Instrument Design Bureau stand at Russia Arms EXPO 2013 (RAE 2013), the IX International Exhibition of Arms, Military Equipment, and Ammunition. Fitted with a jam-resistant automatic beam-riding guidance system, this complex is intended against ground and air targets.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAEiHihhTY2IsWyQHZQcEwXG_ig9aM8PGf4mR7an-soh2WKAEztwsLDaAQZx-VAkEtONop6gh77oXsZGFuzVdB7ElXMc2NEf9rPG88GIDEFU3jBhe4s8GH1WHEjqGrT7wEdhyphenhyphenjVhFJlmcI/s1600/kornet-em.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAEiHihhTY2IsWyQHZQcEwXG_ig9aM8PGf4mR7an-soh2WKAEztwsLDaAQZx-VAkEtONop6gh77oXsZGFuzVdB7ElXMc2NEf9rPG88GIDEFU3jBhe4s8GH1WHEjqGrT7wEdhyphenhyphenjVhFJlmcI/s640/kornet-em.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Kornet-EM can engage last-generation ERA-protected tanks, light armor, emplacements, and naval and air targets (e.g. UAVs and helicopters) at ranges of up to 10 km. In terms of cost/efficiency ratio, Kornet-EM far exceeds other air defense complexes of similar range. Its automatic guidance mode realizes the fire-and-forget principle without using costly target-seeking devices in the missile, which greatly reduces stress loads on the operator and makes the weapons less demanding to operator qualification, reducing personnel training time.<br />
One of the advantages of Kornet-EM is the possibility of mounting the complex on a self-propelled platform or building a carried version with tripod mounting.
