Несмотря на уже поступающие заказы на «Армату» (так, по данным Пухова, о заинтересованности в покупке нескольких сотен танков заявил Алжир), консерватизм Минобороны и бюрократические процедуры вряд ли способствуют налаживанию оперативного экспорта новейшей тяжелой бронетехники.


Despite already received orders for the "Armata" (since, according to Pukhov, the interest in the purchase of several hundred tanks, said Algeria), the conservatism of the Ministry of Defense and bureaucratic procedures are unlikely to contribute to the establishment of operational export recent heavy armor.

The images date back to March 2015, they had been taken during testing at Hassi Bahbah the Kamov 52 by the army of the Algerian air. At the moment we do not know whether any agreement was signed, according to our sources the demonstration allowed to have a clear idea of the capabilities of the helicopter attack, but also its maintenance.

The Denel group said on 30 November that "extensive testing" of the Umkhonto air defence systems installed on Algeria's two new MEKO A200 frigates is scheduled to take place in 2017.

The Denel statement did not name Algeria as the operator of the frigates, but described the two vessels that Germany's ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems has built for the north African country at its shipyard in Kiel. Denel has previously stated it would supply Umkhonto systems for these frigates, the first of which was commissioned in Algeria in April.

The Denel statement said acceptance trials of the second frigate were completed in October and the manufacturing of infrared-guided Umkhonto missiles for the programme will be completed in January.

"After four years of manufacturing, integration, and commissioning we have now reached the final stages of the programme," the statement quoted Tsepo Monaheng, the CEO of its Denel Dynamics division as saying.

Algerian Navy set to trial Umkhonto Block 2



Key Points

  • Denel Dynamics expects to complete deliveries of 100 Umkhonto Block 2 missiles by the end of January 2017
  • A ground-launched version of Umkhonto is proposed for the South African Army's Ground-Based Air Defence System Phase II (GBADS II) project
The Algerian Navy intends to conduct a live-fire exercise with the Denel Dynamics Umkhonto infrared (IR)-homing surface-to-air missile (SAM) early in 2017. The missile was ordered in 2012 as part of the combat system of the two Meko A200 frigates built for the Algerian Navy, with each ship fitted with a 32-cell vertical launch system for the Umkhonto. Denel Dynamics expects to complete deliveries of 100 Umkhonto Block 2 missiles by the end of January 2017.
