IRC «Patsir-C1 ‘is a development project IRC» Tunguska-M. » Outside air defense systems are of great similarity, but is designed to perform various tasks. IRC «Patsir-C1» is designed for the air defense of fundamental and strategic facilities.
The first development to create anti-aircraft complex being conducted as per the order of the Union on Russian air defense OCD «Roman» from the middle of 1990. Cannon and anti-aircraft missile complex has been proposed as a close system acts to cover all armed formations and complexes S-300/S-300V. Little later, his offer NE, Navy, Navy. When designing a system close deeds were used materials of the «Tunguska-M» 2K22M.
The first model of the new complex, under the title «Roman» (Shell-C1) was ready by 1994. Next year, for the first time shown at the MAKS-1995. Because of the hideous financing package was not purchased by the customer. Acceptable funding for the project began in 2000 — the financing made the UAE. By 2005, the main customer of anti-aircraft gun-missile system «Armour-C1 ‘is the Russian Air Force. On this day, the need for a similar complex is estimated to be 100 units. The main set of tests conducted in 2006 07godah. Batch creation of a complex «Armour-C1» starts with 2007. It is the Tula factory «Shcheglovsky shaft» Since 2008, IRC «Armour-C1 ‘is used by the Armed Forces. In the same year, it was expected arrival of the first acts of the complexes close to the Russian Air Force.
First IRC DB «Armour-C1 ‘entered service in the amount of 10 units in the Russian Air Force in the spring of 2010. According to the available disk imaging 2015goda will be put on combat duty for another 10 complexes. By 2020 it is planned to provide Armed Forces Weave the IRC database «Armour-C1.»

The unit complex 96K6
Complex is created in a modular design that can be set to at least some chassis. The design of the complex consists of the following modules:
— module with weapons;
— tower plant;
— control module;
— SEP module
Module with arms carries for yourself missile and artillery armament:
— 12 bikalibernyh be controlled antiaircraft 2-stage rocket 57E6E with starting the engine (front stage), separable first line of motion of the flight. Marching step — warhead, contact and proximity fuzes, on-board equipment. Aerodynamic design rockets «duck.» At launch, the rocket, and a few seconds achieves speed of 1300 m / s. Missile length 320 cm, weight of 74.5 kg, warhead weight of 20 kilograms. SAM 57E6E created to destroy airborne targets at a height of 5-15 meters and a distance of 000 km 1-20. Possibility of falling — 0.7-0.9. The response times set to 6 seconds. Provided by radio command-guided missiles;
— two twin-caliber automatic guns 2A38M 30mm. Type of ammunition used — armor-piercing incendiary rounds. Guns are designed to defeat air targets at altitudes of up to 3 km and a distance of 4 km. The shells have a reference speed of 960 m / s. Rate 5 thousand guns height / min., At rate of early versions 2A72 height did not exceed 700 / min. Weight 842 grams of ammunition, shell weight 389 g. Guidance is carried out using data from the radar (PAR), or using infrared sighting device.
Tower plant is on a module for weapons, radar, electro-optical detection system, a radar unit SOC S-band navigation systems and drives weapons and equipment.
The control unit has control equipment, communications equipment and accessories. It houses the calculation of the combat vehicle — vehicle commander, gunner, operator.
Feature of the complex is the possibility of combining multichannel acquisition and tracking aerial targets with artvooruzheniya. «Armour-C1» can be used for firing at ground targets. To increase noise immunity SU SAM can change the frequency of the radiation with the highest rate of up to 3.5 thousand IMZ / s under the laws of randomness in a wide range. The complex has the ability to do combat missions in standalone mode or as part of subdivision (PVO). First layout could lead to fire only place. Follow-up, modernized versions (CS), have provided the opportunity to fire on the march.
Detection and tracking:
— radar with a phased antenna array cm-range 1RS1-1E;
— radar with phased array antennas cm and mm ranges 1RS2 and 1RS2-1E «Helmet» for maintenance of air targets and missile guidance;
— Optical self-position consisting of opto-electronic complex with a thermal long-wave receivers (IR-DF) for additional research purposes according to radar detection with the definition of the angular coordinates of objects and missiles. It is used at any time of the day;
— central computer system created for the digital processing of received signals and auto-tracking purposes. Once can be support on two goals by radar and optical-electronic channels. Providing shooting on goal with 2 missiles. The highest rate of capture of airborne targets up to 10 units per minute;
— Radar module SOC S-band is used for the detection, and auto-tracking purposes in the presence of active or passive interference detection and tracking range of 40 km. Immediately target tracking can be up to 40 units.
Ability to combat the introduction of the complex:
— single (stand-alone) to perform combat missions — detection, tracking, defeat the purposes of their own means, without verbovaniya additional funds;
— execution of combat missions in the battery — one of the complexes acts as a BM and MP immediately. Other complexes (3-5 units) connected to it for target designation and production Target shooting;
— execution of combat missions as part of battery with the standard manual — complexes are connected to the gearbox, which is responsible for the CO kozhdogo complex. IRC DB «Armour-C1 ‘lead Target fire;
— execution of combat missions as part of battery with the standard manual of early warning and radar — radar provides information on the CP, which processes it and outputs on the CO complexes to perform fire on targets;
— combat missions in automatic target indications on the outside as a single combat unit or a unit consisting of several MB.
Of the battery:
— 3-6 BM IRC DB «Armour-C1»;
— control point (battery);
— 1-3 TRV based on machine 2 BM. TRV is made on the KamAZ-6560. Provided manipulators (crane type). Ammunition in store — 24 transport containers with missiles and artboekomplekty;
— training and training equipment;
— facilities maintenance and repair in the composition of which comes MRTO (support vehicle);
— Machine options (alignment) systems and complexes IRC «Armour-C1.»

Additional Information:
In 2012, the open scientific conference and the Defense Ministry was announced RARAN assessment IRC «Armour-C1.»
The main advantage of IRC DB «Armour-C1» — automatic operation.
The main drawbacks according to field tests:
— ability to fire small air targets, hovering and maneuvering with foreign exchange option 2-3 km;
— not proved the feasibility of target, hovering at speeds of 400 m / s and more than (TTC — 1000 m / s);
— to the highest range of fire is on air targets, flying at a speed of least 80 m / s;
— used bikalibernaya missile has a pointing error by intense maneuvering targets;
— There was no evidence the ability of the defeat of tactical missiles or their blocks;
— little ability pointing missiles;
— ineffective coordination of parts SAM;
— perceptible impact weather criterion for the detection range of air targets;
— overall properties and the complete lack of body armor does not allow the use of complex orders in the front cover your units;
— dimensions BM IRC DB «Armour-C1» do not allow it to move by train;
— the time required to transfer complex in the firing position exceeds 1.5 times the stated time.
— great time of shipment of ammunition with TRV (up to 30 minutes).
— there are no precise data on the safety of firing missiles;
— the existence of tipping capacity in the management of fire artvooruzheniya;
— dependence on imported hardware components;
— Tracked complex is almost 50 percent more wheel options
Round-up:
— in terms of cost-effectiveness «Armour-C1 ‘is the note;
— RL active agents cause unmasking of the complex;
— for the transfer of CEA complex on the Russian element base may be useful for more than 3 years;
— to the need for «Armour-C1» will need a lot of work to harmonize the different programs.
