UA.RPA is working on a simplified version of the Antisniper complex
Ukrainian Agency for Advanced Scientific and Technical Development UA.RPA continues to work on creating different versions of anti-sniper devices, taking into account different functionality and different capabilities.
Reports about it Defense Express.
According to the publication, the company is currently working on a simplified version of the Antisniper complex (without automation, but with all the necessary functionality for such a system), which will soon be demonstrated to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
It should be noted that the importance of the developments of the UA.RPA League member, one of the few domestic companies dealing with anti-sniper issues, has become especially important against the background of the total absence of anti-sniper systems in the area of environmental protection.
The Antisniper optical surveillance detection system is designed to combat enemy snipers, as well as to determine the coordinates of any system that has an optical surveillance device – binoculars, monoculars, artillery compasses or ATGM systems.
The Antisniper system is capable of automatically finding enemy optics at a distance of up to 1,500 m. This figure is stated by the manufacturer, but is not the maximum: devices with higher brightness complex can see at a distance of up to 2,000 m and even more.
The task of the “Antisniper” is to aim at a target with a diameter of up to 50 mm (approximate diameter of a sniper sight, military binoculars) at a distance of 1,500 m. Therefore, an important point in the operation of the complex is to ensure the accuracy of the rotary device.
For this purpose, there are stepper motors with additional division and a harmonic reducer, which ensure the operation of the complex in microstep mode. This provides accuracy with a hundredth of a degree for high-precision positioning of the optical channels of the complex.
Most of the complex consists of components made in Ukraine – about 80% of components are made by the company itself. Everything related to mechanics and optics is made in Ukraine. However, components such as sensors and laser emitters are purchased abroad: in Germany or the United States.
