The
Pechora-2M is a surface-to-air anti-aircraft short-range missile system
designed for destruction of aircraft, cruise missiles, assault helicopters
and other air targets at ground, low and medium altitudes. The Pechora-2M
was developed and produced by Russian-Belarus Oboronitelniye Sistemi
(Defence Systems). This new system, use the old S-125
(SA-3 Goa) missile mounted to the back side of a light
truck. The system is an effective weapon against all aerodynamic means
of attack. It is especially effective in comparison with other air defence
systems in struggle with low-flying and small-size targets. The system
is also capable of destroying the ground-based targets. The new optronic
system will provide detection, identifying and tracking the air targets
both in the day and at night. Active noise protection means against
self-homing missiles on target emanation are introduced into the system.The
modernized missile has increased range and efficiency of target engagement.

Two missiles
S-125 are mounted to a platform, fitted to the back side of
a light truck. The difference between the S-125 and the Pechora-2M.
It took over three hours to transport the stationary S-125
launcher from one firing position to another, but the mobile
Pechora-2M with the 5P73 index can change positions in just
20-25 minutes. Enhanced maneuverability contributes greatly
to combat survivability, because approaching enemy aircraft
can promptly attack exposed SAM launchers.

| The
S-125 system uses 2 different missiles versions. The V-600 had
the smallest warhead with only 60 kg of High-Explosive. It had
a range of about 15 km. The later version is named V-601. It
has a length of 6.09 m, a wing span of 2.2 m and a body diameter
of 0.375 m. This missile weighs 953 kg at launch, and has a
70 kg warhead containing 33 kg of HE and 4,500 fragments. The
minimum range is 3.5 km, and the maximum is 35 km (with the
Pechora 2A). The intercept altitudes are between 100 m and 18
km. The Pechora-2M features an optronic network consisting of
one TV channel and one thermal imaging channel. This network
makes it possible to attack and destroy aerial targets day and
night in conditions of radio-electronic warfare. Consequently,
the Pechora-2M can hit F-16 fighters at 30-km ranges and larger
aircraft at a range of up to 35 km. The Pechora-2M, which can
effectively hit incoming targets, uses new 5V27D and 5V27DE
missiles, as well as the older 5V27 missiles. |
| Mobility |
The
Pechora 2M TEL is based on a 6 x 6 MZKT chassis and uses the
two round 5P71 launcher (Defence Systems). Mounting of the air
defense means on wheeled truck chassis, use of the program-controlled
hydraulic drive of the antenna, modern communication facilities
and space navigation equipment have provided mobility of the
air defense system and essentially reduced the time for combat
deployment. The system has an opportunity to be interfaced with
removed radars and superior combat posts through telecode channels.
Removal of the control cabin from the antenna post, and the
application of electronic protection complex against antiradar
missiles allow increasing survivability of the system. Such
approach to the modernization of the `Pechora` air defense system
allows to receive modern weapons at moderate charges.
