Soviet/Russian Radar System Designations List

[Tzoli]

I am trying to collect the numerous and sadly partly inconsistent designations the Russians used for their naval Electronical systems, like Radars,Sonars etc.
I will update them time to time but feel free to add more info like correct designation, variants and design/operational dates.

"3R41 Volna / Top Dome - Fire Control Radar for the SA-N-20 Gargoyle Missile (1978)"

This is actually the fire control radar for the SA-N-6 GRUMBLE. The SA-N-20 used a 30N6 TOMB STONE bolted to Pyotr Veliky in place of the forward TOP DOME installation.

Added and a few variants of it

I am trying to collect the numerous and sadly partly inconsistent designations the Russians used for their naval Electronical systems, like Radars,Sonars etc.
I will update them time to time but feel free to add more info like correct designation, variants and design/operational dates.

Hi all

it's my file about M-series. Cyrillic only, sorry

Hi all

it's my file about M-series. Cyrillic only, sorry

Thanks that will help at least with the names and designations. Don't you know their design/introduction dates?

 

[AM]

Thanks that will help at least with the names and designations. Don't you know their design/introduction dates?

The dates of the development and introduction of weapons in the USSR and Russia are absolutely secret information. Public information about this, as a rule, has nothing in common with reality.

PS. Now Russian Navy use "5П-Series"

 

[Tzoli]

Well I deduct that at least between the launch and commissioning of the ship should the equipment be introduced officially no?

 

[AM]

Thanks that will help at least with the names and designations. Don't you know their design/introduction dates?

no, very often the equipment is in the “trial operation” or “testing” phase on combat-ready ships

 

[Tzoli]

I see.
Do you have list of the sonars as well?

 

[AM]

I see.
Do you have list of the sonars as well?

What series are you interested in?
MG, MGA, MGV, MGI, MGK, MGP, MGS?

 

[Tzoli]

All? I wish to list here all the radars/sonars.

 

[AM]

All? I wish to list here all the radars/sonars.

ok. 1st.

Do you have info on the glide path spotlights of the Privod-SV system?
