>Russia has a new remotely operated ground combat vehicle, the Uran-9, built for reconnaissance and fire support. Despite looking like a baby tank, Uran-9 is fully capable of taking on enemy vehicles much larger than itself. Developed by Russian defense contractor Rosoboronexport, Uran-9 is a tracked armored vehicle controlled remotely by an operator. The turret is equipped with a 2A72 30-millimeter cannon with a rate of fire of 350 to 400 rounds per minute and can shoot high explosive incendiary and armor-piercing ammunition. A 7.62-millimeter machine gun is mounted parallel to the cannon.
> Studding the outside of the turret are four 9M120 Ataka anti-tank missiles, each capable of hitting a tank at 2.5 miles with a 90 percent hit probability. The tandem shaped charge warhead is designed to defeat so-called "reactive armor" tiles by using a smaller charge to detonate the reactive armor, allowing the main charge hit the enemy's main armor. Each Uran also mounts four Igla-S surface to air missiles, giving it the ability to shoot down low-flying aircraft to distances of up to 1.86 miles.
Is this a game changer? It looks a lot like a game changer.
>russian made drone
it sucks
the drones in question
oh shit, its R.O.T.O.R.!
More like P. I. D. O. R.
Finally, a mobik that isn't drunk 90% of the time.
Thomas Bangalter fell on hard times
Add a cope cage and send it in
How is he gonna keep up the discipline in the russian army without a dick?
Mechanized dicks are widely available for purchase.
I would imagine the one the Russian army is developing for robotnik is particularly long, thick and spiky.
They should outsource to the experts on the field. Time to call BadDragon.
Today, I will remind them
More like Urine-9.
How long until one of these gets destroyed and we find out they were actually manned?
Its never gonna happen. These things will never reach Ukraine.
How many years have we been seeing this little girl drifting around on snow
>new
They've been touting this vapourware POS around since years before their failed invasion.
yeah, and earlier this year we were assured 1/4 million infantry and several thousand tanks were going to crush ukraine and roll them to Poland.
yet here we are, Russia barely holding back the ukrainian counter offensive
That just means they need a million strong infantry and the pride of the motherland, the T-34 to bring them to victory
Uh huh, sure.
They’ve had these things since 2015 and tried using them Syria. Emphasis on “tried”.
>remotely operated
Mhmm
Haaaha they make the little cossack manlets drive it around like a tiny goblin tank
>cossack
maybe Zitlerjugend will drive these
Have the Russians already burned through all of the Soviet manlet stockpiles?
Why does he have a confederate flag patch
It's the Novorossiya flag, which is what Donbabwe and Luganda were calling themselves before the Special Educational Operation
It's the Novorossiysk flag
Yes, dills genocided all of them back in 2014.
Autoloaders provide 50% manlet stockpile relief, as you need only one manlet per VTOL-capable tank turret.
There were only so many nuclear accidents during the times of the soviet onion so the stock of purebreed microslavs is limited. They are using tuvans nowadays.
Nice to see even T-34 showing battle readiness.
Biorobots.
Will Russia be the first country to implement bodyhorror mobik strogg cyborgs?
Is this what the meat cube initiative was all about?
One single mobikube can power a biomech modded t55 for several weeks. The various fluids will lubricate the mechanical systems, whilst the remaining life force is directed towards the new drivetrain. The jaws aren't particularly flexible but if fallen soldiers are lined up, it can consume them to keep operational quite effectively.

If they fixed the comms issues I’m sure we’ll be treated to plenty of videos of it shooting stuff.
They almost certainly haven’t developed a doctrine for it. They’ll use it like how everyone uses drones in this war: make drone units which sit around and drive the drone out when someone wants to make a move and take pot-shots at things that pop up.
Or they took the money and bought a yacht
They can't get airborne drones not to lose signal when near the ground. No way it will work with this thing. It would need airborne repeaters, which would get shot down the second they're over hostile territory.
>Russian weapon designed this century
>Actually existing
if a device can combine those two features, it would be a game changer.
>Quality optics and NV are in shortage
>Let's design a tank where we remove the functional human eyes and turn it into a RV with unencrypted radios we bought from some Chinese webstore
>it was shit in syria
>better use it in ukraine
Imagine still believing PR shit about any Russian piece of equipment in 2023.
New wunderwaffle? But I thought lancets and shaheeds are winning the war already?
What ever happened to those ninja dog drones they were parading around?
The Ali express ones? All for show.
> It looks a lot like a game changer.
And the Armatas are going to support it?
how the fuck is russia going to make enough of these to swarm when they can't make normal ass shit to begin with?
>have major trouble refitting single digit numbers of old T-72 chassis with ERA and upgrade packages just to send them to the frontline and have them toss their turrets

Ahahhaha
Yeah sure

Numerologymorons are the moroniest of the esoteric cattle.
You're worse than essential oil healing crystal Karens.
You know your tank is good when you have to point out it can take on tanks larger than itself
it would actually be a pretty decent idea but it needs to be smaller and cheap as shit, no point having 30mm turret tbh. I guess for recon and shit the best platform would be:
- size of a family car
- tracked with 5 pairs of wheels should be enough
- 10km fiber optic cable for control
- off-the-shelf gps/ins module
- 360 cameras for driving and situational awareness
- 10x zoom camera on top with panning
- acoustic and radio sensors to detect enemy
- 12,7 mm MG

>2016
OP is a gay as usual
This war started in 20 february 2014 though, it was just frozen.
what goes in this area if there's not any crew?
Scissor lift to look/shoot over trees.
All the ammo
raep chamber
plunder
cube components
Ahh, fuck you, you were faster.
It has space for 3 meat cubes adequately cooled at ambient temperature.
>what goes in this area if there's not any crew?
Macaroni storage.
Why do russians still think that anyone takes their parade vehicles seriously?They have ruined any credibility they had and if they could mass produce the Armata or any of the other shit they supposedly have they would have done so already.
It's mostly directed at their own people and the barely literate lowlifes that are convinced that Russia is the savior of their values, whatever they may be.
its literally 7 years old article
>The tandem shaped charge warhead is designed to defeat so-called "reactive armor" tiles by using a smaller charge to detonate the reactive armor
wait what? now they're shit talking reactive armor when they have it plastered on every single vehicle? vatniks really do have different answers for the same question depending on what time it is

And who might this report be from anon?
Kyle.
Iirc these were tested back in Syria over 6 years ago and they worked perfectly fine the only issue was the lag between inputs from when the operator told it to do something and it did it but given that was the main issue and they took it out of Syria to improve it I'd say its been fixed now anyone downplaying these RC IFV is retarded and shouldn't be allowed an opinion
>they worked perfectly fine
>the only issue was the lag between inputs from when the operator told it to do something and it did it
Noticeable input lag in a remote controlled vehicle in the year of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ 2016.
Yeah, definitely no other problems that are easier pushed under the rug there, pinky promise!
the report was made by the operators their only issue was the input delay its been a significant enough amount of time that its been resolved
>Senior Research Officer Andrei Anisimov told a conference at the Kuznetsov Naval Academy in St. Petersburg that the Uran-9’s performance in Syria revealed that “modern Russian combat Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) are not able to perform the assigned tasks in the classical types of combat operations.”
>He concluded it would be ten to fifteen more years before UGVs were ready for such complex tasks.
>according to Anisimov, they Uran-9’s thermal and electro-optical sensors proved incapable of spotting enemies beyond 1.25 miles
>“The OCH-4 optical station does not allow detecting optical observation and targeting devices of the enemy and gives out multiple interferences on the ground and in the airspace in the surveillance sector.”
>the sensors, and the weapons they guided, were useless while the Uran-9 was moving due to a lack of stabilization.
>When fire commands were issued, on six occasions there were significant delays.
>In one case, the command simply didn’t go through.
>tracked suspension also was reportedly frequently bedeviled by unreliable rollers and suspension springs, requiring frequent repairs
>the remote-control system, which officially had a range of 1.8 miles, only proved effective up to 300 to 400 meters in a lightly urbanized environment.
>seventeen lapses of remote control lasting up to one minute, and two events in which they lost contact for as long as an hour-and-a-half.
Oh for fucks sake, why can't the Russian shills be somewhat near the truth for once? All this information was one (1) fucking google search away.

>Russia makes 15 years of technological progress in just 7
Impressive
>they worked perfectly fine
That's only because sand people cannot into EW
Is that thing built on a bmd chasis? It might be really effective as a recon vehicle.
