"Puzaty Neptune" lit up at the exhibition: the expirer of the headquarters of the Navy headquarters pointed to the possible shortcomings of the missile

To extend: a new version of the domestic winged rocket "Neptune", called "pushyl Neptune", raises a number of questions through its design. According to the captain of the 1st rank in the reserve, the former deputy chief of the Navy of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces Andriy Ryzhenko, the design with thickening on the body can affect the stability and aerodynamics of ammunition, which he told in the comment of UNIAN. He called the published photo of the rocket "a little comic".

"I have never seen the winged rocket with such influxes in the nasal part. Sometimes there are such infusions in the feed. It looks like a straight engine. Such, for example, influxes on Moskit or Innis rockets. And it is this influx that causes him some misunderstanding. "With small deviations, additional effects of air begin, which will actually move the rocket. That is, it will be very unstable. These infusions are very strange. I do not even know what they are made for. Maybe some there.

But, in terms of aerodynamics, I do not know how this rocket will behave in the air. He also confessed that he did not understand why to modify Neptune even more, since any special constructive changes of the rocket do not need, except, except for an increase in range. "In order for it to shoot on the targets on the coast, it is possible to add or completely replace the head of the self -introduction, which is used for firing on ships, on the avionic, on the basis of GPS.

In order to be placed on the point of the globe. And it is difficult for me to say these. Recall that the improved "Neptune" was presented during the demonstration of the opportunities of Ukrainian defense for representatives of NATO member states. Due to thickening in the case, the rocket is already called "pushy Neptune". Earlier it was reported that in Ukraine the modification of the Neptune family was officially presented on the basis of the RK-360L missile. This is Neptune-D system.
