5P-20K: control center for Zircon
It has long been no secret that the TARKR SF “Admiral Nakhimov”, which is undergoing (finishing) modernization at Sevmash, will receive a new strike complex, the ammunition of which will also include hypersonic missiles 3M22 KRO “Zircon”. Other innovations “A.N.” will be the topic of one of the next messages, but now – about something without which the latest missiles would be completely useless.
According to the reference book “Strike Ships” (Yu. Apalkov, 2010, p. 80), in his youth “Nakhimov” received target designation for “Granit” from the “Coral-BN” complex of the ICRC “Legend” system, which operated until 2008.
After the decision was made to restore the cruiser (in those blissful times when purchases of defense industry enterprises were placed in the public domain), an agreement with the Granit-Electron concern for the manufacture and supply of the product became known. MREK 5P-20K* for manager No. 802.
* The author strongly disagrees with such (hyphenated) writing of the product index, which contradicts established practice (5P20K is necessary), but is forced to obey the letter of the document.
There is a widespread opinion ( example ) that the 5P-20K is an air defense radar with an AFAR “Poliment”, which is part of the “Poliment-Redut” air defense system, installed on frigates of Project 22350, but this is not true.
According to first-hand information (from titled specialists of Granit-Electron), the multifunctional radio-electronic complex (MREC) 5P-20K (according to unofficial data, code – “Monument”) is an information subsystem of the anti-ship reconnaissance and strike circuit (RUK) 4 -th generation.
In essence, 5P-20K is an active-passive over-the-horizon radar with channels for receiving data from aircraft and spacecraft (spacecraft of the new ICRC “Liana” system) and mutual exchange of information (IEOI) between ships of the tactical group, the flagship of which will be TARKR.
Thus, “Monument” is capable of carrying out over-the-horizon control control both autonomously and in conjunction with external sources. In the first case, this insures him against the vicissitudes of war, in the second, it guarantees the use of missile weapons at the full firing range (for the 3M22 KRO “Zircon” – more than 1000 km ). ■
