Penicillin complex: the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation strengthens on the fronts the means

Complexes are designed to track the trajectory of flight of artillery ammunition, mortars and RSSL. The principle of its work is based on the fixation of sound and thermal signals after a shot. The command of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation decided to increase the number of complexes of sound heat artillery intelligence 1B75 "Penicillin" in the war zone in Ukraine.

Yes, the enemy increases the means of counter -battery struggle for the purpose of achieving the advantage in artillery duels. On March 7, a number of Russian media reported with reference to anonymous sources. Viewers write that the Penicillin Complex is actively used by the Russian forces since the beginning of a full -scale invasion of Ukraine. It is noted that the complexes have shown their efficiency and therefore the Ukrainian military hits them.

Because of this, the sources do not reveal the details of how many Penicillin complexes will be on the fronts, respectively, the locations of their dislocation are not revealed. The publication also states that earlier the party of these systems arrived on the front in December last year, and now new supplies are expected. Russian sources characterize complexes 1b75 "Penicillin" as an effective means of combating enemy artillery.

It allows you to track the trajectories of artillery and mortar ammunition, as well as RSSU shells and set up fire points. Unlike Western radar tracking means, this complex does not use radio waves, thereby remaining unnoticed. It is also argued that the means of radio electronic struggle (HRB) do not act on the complex, since its work is based on the principles of fixing sound and thermal signals after a shot and a breakdown of ammunition.

In this case, "Penicillin" analyzes the data obtained and produces the coordinates of the location of the fire systems, placing them on the map. The whole process takes about five seconds. Earlier it was reported that the Ukrainian defense forces will have scarce artillery ammunition from EU countries in the near future. According to the British edition of Financial Times on March 3, the EU agreed to supply shells from its stocks after Brussels suggested that suppliers have reimbursed expenses.
