I am quite surprized Belarus even has a domestic defence industry. Any alternative to Russian weaponry is a great addition to Azerbaijani Armed Forces.

I just noticed that the launcher can use both Mizrak O and U

alternatives?

20+ years to look for alternatives, I was hoping that perhaps now that most of the soviet tech is getting outdated Azerbaijan would move to friendlier states.. Still clinging onto Russia..

Azerbaijan’s Ildirim mine resistant ambush protected vehicle makes debut at ADEX 2016

Azerbaijan’s Defense Ministry shown for the first time at ADEX 2016 – 2nd Azerbaijan International Defence Exhibition in Baku, Azerbaijan is the Ildirim mine resistant ambush protected vehicle.

The new vehicle developed in partnership with South African Mobile Land Systems company.

The new Ildirim (English: Lightning) is a mine-resistant light armored vehicle. The Ildirim based on the Caprivi Mk3 armoured personnel carrier designed by Mobile Land Systems (Pty) Ltd.

According to the manufacturer armored offers protection STANAG 4569 3B, which is equivalent to undermining the 8 kg of explosives under the vehicle, and STANAG 4569 4A, the corresponding erosion of 16 kg of explosives under the wheel.

Elbit announces new SkyStriker loitering munition

Elbit Systems is introducing a new loitering munition called SkyStriker, which is designed to conduct long-range precision tactical strikes, the Israeli company told IHS Jane's on 6 September.

One client, which Elbit declined to name, has already purchased the system, and a company source said several potential clients around the world have expressed interest.

Elbit said the SkyStriker enables ground forces to improve their "lethality, situational awareness, and survivability" on the battlefield.

The platform locates, acquires, and strikes operator-designated targets, and can be armed with either a 5 kg or 10 kg warhead, which is inserted inside the fuselage.

According to Elbit, the weapon's electric propulsion system has a "low acoustic signature allowing covert operations at low altitudes." It described SkyStriker as "a silent, invisible, and surprise attacker" that can be operated from outside the range of enemy fire.

Its top speed is 100 kts (185 km/h), but it will typically only use this once a target has been acquired. Elbit says SkyStriker's loiter time is two hours with a 5 kg warhead and one hour with a 10 kg warhead.

The weapon employs an autonomous navigation system during the cruising and loitering phases, and can be locked on to a target by the operator using an electro-optical sensor.

"During the strike phase, the drone dives at speeds of up to 300 kts," Elbit said. "The maximum wind velocity for the strike leg is 40 kts with only slight degradation in accuracy performance."

Operators have the ability to abort an attack, go around, and re-engage the same or other targets. The aircraft can be recovered at any stage before an attack at co-ordinates that can be changed by the operator during the flight. Recovery is conducted using a parachute and an inflatable bag that are carried by the vehicle.

The aircraft is transported in a box and the wings have to be assembled before launch, which is carried out using a unique launcher that can be towed by a 4x4 vehicle.

Havelsan introduces new parachute simulator system in Azerbaijan

The Turkish defense contractor Havelsan presents for the first time a new parachute simulator at ADEX 2016 exhibition in Baku. According to Havelsan, the Turkish Armed Forces already bought five systems to train its Special Forces

With this system, a training jump only costs 4-5 US$ (against 60$ for a real jump), a representative of Havelsan told Army Recognition.

In addition to the simulation structure in itself, the parachute simulator consists of an Instructor Operator Station (IOS), a Virtual Display System, an Environmental Sound and Communication System, an Image Generator and a Debriefing System.

The IOS console is used for scenario management and manage running training (view, change, situations, inject malfunction, etc.). The IOS also allows after action review. It consists of Console Hardware, Console Software, and Sound and Communication System.

The Oculus display system of parachute simulator is a Helmet Mounted Display which works with integrated sensors to simultaneously change the field of view area of parachute jumper.

The Environmental Sound system is used to enhance the reality of the simulation. Level, frequency and direction of sounds are simulated. For Trainee-Instructor and Trainee-Trainee communication, an internal communication subsystem is available. Trainees can communicate with each others and with instructors.

The Image Generator simulates weather conditions (sunny, rainy, snowy, windy, foggy, etc.) and times-of-day. It is running on COTS hardware and is designed for modifications upon customer request.




ADEX 2016: Otokar presents new UCOK stabilized remote control weapon station

At this second edition of the Azerbaijan International Defence Exhibition, the Turkish defense vehicles manufacturer Otokar disclosed its brand new UCOK stabilized remote control weapon system fitted on a Cobra II light armored vehicle.

The UCOK RCWS stabilized machine gun platform can use 12.7 mm, 7.62 mm or 40 mm automatic grenade launcher on the same platform. The weapon station has dual axes independently driven sight which accommodates a dual FOV for thermal camera, a CCD camera and a laser range finder. Independent driven sight allows the aiming reticle to stay on the target when the weapon system is aiming at lead angles.



The system is designed to carry up to 400 rounds in 12.7mm configuration, or 1,000 rounds in 7.62 mm, or 100 rounds in 40 mm AGL mode. UCOK also features eight 76 mm smoke grenade launchers. Weapons and sights have an elevation of -10° to + 70°.

The UCOK RVWS has a length of 1,680 m, a width of 925 mm, and a height of 870 mm.

The standard version of the UCOK is equipped with electrical drive and stabilization, automatic target tracker, automatic ballistic calculation, redundant manual control ability on rooftop, and surveillance mode independent from gun elevation. It can optionally be armed with anti tank guided missiles.
