Interspecific center for training and combat use of electronic warfare troops

This military unit in Tambov is a center for training military specialists in the field of electronic warfare and radio intelligence. The center is interspecies. This is the only profile educational institution in the modern Russian army.

For those who wish to pass military service in a training center under a contract, you should contact the HR department, where specialists, if there are vacancies, will be sent for an interview with the boss training center.

Address of the military training unit

Address: Commissar Moskovsky Street, building 1, Tambov, military training unit 61460. Index - 392006.

History of the center for training and combat use of electronic warfare troops

The Training Center was formed in 1962. In the Voronezh region, in the city of Borisoglebsk, the 27th specialized school for training radio intelligence and radio interference specialists was created. In 1975, the institution was moved to the village of Pekhotka (Tambov). In 2009, the school received the name 1084th Interspecific Electronic Warfare Troops Training Center.

Structure and life of the Tambov training center

The training of specialists lasts 5 months and they are distributed to military units for further service. Only 5% of all cadets remain in the training center; they are awarded the rank of sergeant. The cadets learn how to fight the enemy in the electronic field, methods to reduce the quality of communications in enemy troops, and how to use their own means of destruction.

Cadets engage in physical and drill training 4 hours a day, the rest of the time is spent on exercises on virtual training simulators.

Field training for cadets is also taking place at a training ground near Tambov.

Traditionally, Saturday is a housekeeping and bathing day in school.

The soldiers live in barracks, the rooms are designed for 5-6 people, the block has washing machine and a machine for drying clothes. The buildings also have a recreation room, gyms, and a library. Classrooms with the latest equipment and interactive visual aids are located on the territory of the unit.

The canteen, medical unit, and infirmary are located in separate buildings, but on the territory of the unit.

There is a VTB Bank ATM at the checkpoint.

Hazing in a military unit

They are not observed in military unit number 61460. Firstly, soldiers are examined every day for diseases or bodily injuries, and secondly, all military personnel are of the same age and conscription.

Event in honor of cadets taking the oath of office

Before taking the oath, soldiers are not allowed to make phone calls. mobile phone, and only a week before the solemn event they are allowed to call to inform relatives of information about the time and date of taking the oath. Typically the ceremony takes place on Saturday morning.

At the end of the official part of the event, a conversation is held with the parents of the conscripts, after which the soldiers receive a leave of absence (for several hours), which they spend with relatives and friends.

Communication with the conscript

Visiting military personnel is allowed on Saturday and Sunday, and on other days of the week, meetings are possible only at the checkpoint.

Conversations with cadets on a mobile phone are allowed on Sunday from morning until lights out. During training time, all of them are confiscated and are kept by the company commander.

If a soldier is placed in a military hospital or infirmary, he can be visited at any time with a pass.

How to get to the Tambov military unit - training center

Direct buses and trains depart from Moscow from Paveletsky and Kazansky railway stations to Tambov. The schedule can be found on site.

The military unit is located near railway station, about 10 minutes walk under the bridge. The unit's checkpoint is located to the right of the bridge.

You can get there using minibus No. 45, get off at the “Zheleznodorozhny Tekhnikum” or “Eletskaya” stop and walk a few blocks.

By car, you need to enter the city from Michurinskoe Highway, continue the journey all the way straight to the bus station, pass a controlled intersection there and drive straight another 500 meters to the airplane monument (next to it is the necessary checkpoint).

In the article above we looked at the military units of Tambov.

How to repel an enemy air raid without firing a single missile? How important is a sense of proportion when organizing communications and command and control? And why can a computer in the hands of a soldier with a higher education be worse than a machine gun? The “Defend Russia” correspondent was told about this and much more at the Tambov Center for Training Electronic Warfare Troops.

In the second half of the twentieth century, electronic warfare (EW) units began to appear in the armies of the leading countries of the world. For decades, their main tasks have been to suppress enemy radio communication systems, as well as navigation, reconnaissance and destruction systems using radars.

House of electronic warfare

Members of the Russian Armed Forces, like their foreign colleagues, carry out this work in three main directions - air, sea and land, and if necessary, they can also extinguish signals coming from space satellites. The competence of electronic warfare officers also includes countering technical intelligence in information networks, however this area their service is one of the most closed, so it’s difficult to say for sure.

Commanders and operators of electronic warfare systems are now being trained at the unique Russian center for the training and combat use of electronic warfare troops in Tambov. Over one and a half thousand specialists, from soldier-operators to company commanders, undergo training annually.

Conscripts are trained according to a five-month program, during which time soldiers learn to handle complex equipment, to a certain extent comprehend the theory of electronic warfare, and also practice skills on simulators and real combat systems. The training of contract servicemen - as a rule, these are people with secondary technical education - is somewhat shorter: depending on the tasks, the training cycle lasts from ten days to three months. During the longest cycle, contract soldiers are trained to become heads of radio jamming stations. Officers also undergo three months of training, after which they are certified for the position of platoon or electronic warfare company commander.

In the gym

For practical training at the Tambov Electronic Warfare Center they are actively using combat systems radio reconnaissance and suppression, as well as computer simulators. The Center’s specialists demonstrated to journalists the work of two of them - a training version of the Torn-MDM-U radio monitoring complex and a hardware and software analogue of the ground-based jamming station control complex AKUP-1.

The training class of the Torn-MDM-U simulator resembles an office of an IT company rather than a military facility - vertical blinds on the windows, a dozen modern computers at wide tables and not a single familiar poster with visual aids on the walls. The lesson leader displays all the necessary drawings and graphics through a projector on a large white screen.

This is where contract workers work. Groups of numbers and abbreviations change on the monitors, understandable only to the electronic warfare officers themselves, the cursor slowly crawls along the graph of the intercepted signal, icons and lines appear and disappear on the map of the area. The work of the students is monitored by the head of the cycle, Major Karpenko. From time to time he looks into a separate room behind a glass wall, where two military men are working with radio equipment.

Everything is serious here - displays in metal cases, dashboards obviously for military purposes, several radio stations of different bands. A continuous Morse code signal beeps from the speakers. As the leader of the classes explained, in big class listeners decide combat missions, simulated on a computer, and at this position the operators work with live broadcast.

In the next class, AKUP-1 calculations are trained. As the Center’s specialists explained, this complex is designed to counter airborne radars attack aircraft enemy. For example, in the event of a raid front-line bombers at our object, the combat crew of the complex will “extinguish” their locators with a directed radio signal, the target will literally disappear from the radar screens. Aircraft crews are unlikely to dare to break through to visual contact with the target - the risk of being torn apart by missile and artillery fire from air defense systems is too great.

The AKUP-1 simulator is completely virtual; the operational environment is created by a computer. Workplaces for all levels are equipped here, from command post battalion or company to the jamming station. At the controls are military personnel, both officers and non-commissioned officers. The leader of the training demonstrated to the “Defend Russia” correspondent the work of one of the military men: “This complex is capable of detecting a radar station (radar) combat aircraft over the entire altitude range. Depending on the operating mode of the radar—transmitting missile control signals, emitting side-scan radar, or scanning the terrain when flying at low altitudes—the target is given its priority. The student’s task is to identify from the variety of air targets the one that has characteristic radiation, and to adequately assess the degree of its threat.”

Ninth Company

By the fall of this year, a new unit will appear at the Tambov electronic warfare training center - . Special military formation, already the ninth in the Russian Armed Forces, will be staffed by graduates of technical universities. During the year, conscripts with diplomas will engage in scientific research, testing new and modernizing existing electronic warfare, radio intelligence, and information security systems.

To date, eight Russian technical universities have announced their intention to send their graduates to serve in the Tambov scientific company, including the Bauman Moscow State Technical University, a long-time supplier of technical personnel for the army and defense industry. All applicants face a tough and impartial selection process, but specialists also have their own preferences.

Thus, the Center is interested in recruiting graduates of Tambov State Technical University (TSTU). The reasons are objective: among the university teachers there are many former officers Center, who simultaneously have scientific titles and practical experience work with electronic warfare equipment. In addition, the Revtrud enterprise is located in Tambov, which produces this equipment, and organizes introductory classes for students of specialized faculties of TSTU. Finally, the manufacturer of high-tech military products is interested in having technical specialists who have studied standard samples after the army begin developing promising equipment.

At the same time, the recruitment of ordinary conscripts requires some improvement. According to officers of the Center, some military registration and enlistment offices staff it on a residual basis, which sometimes results in the conscription of soldiers who are not suitable for service in electronic warfare units.

How are things overseas?

In addition to combat training of military personnel, Tambovsky specialists electronic warfare center are engaged research work. Among its directions is the applied study of the military-technical capabilities of the armed forces of foreign states. Sometimes the analysis of the information received gives very interesting results. Thus, after studying data from publicly available sources on the Internet, the Center’s researchers found a potential vulnerability in the US Army’s modernized communications system.

As Anatoly Balyukov, head of the testing and methodological department, said, today the US military is replacing communications equipment in the troops with AN/PRC-100 and AN/PRC-150 radio stations. Their distinctive feature is the ability to network according to the principle of IP addressing, and “any soldier will be able to reach the president.”

No doubt - global character radio communications provides the broadest opportunities in the theater of military operations. But there is also back side, Balyukov noted. Any global information network has its own vulnerabilities that can be exploited by someone else. Therefore, when creating such systems, it is important not to lose a sense of proportion. But in this matter, our overseas partners lost it. Let us add on our own behalf - as in many other things.

Based on the results of the analysis of the use of military equipment in Syria supreme commander Vladimir Putin asked the military department in 2017 to continue the development of high-precision weapons, modern means of communication, reconnaissance, control and electronic warfare.


Electronic warfare (EW)


is a set of agreed measures and actions for:

Electronic damage to enemy radio-electronic objects (functional damage; electronic damage; damage by radiation homing weapons),

Information support (collection, analysis and synthesis of data on the radio-electronic situation; technical reconnaissance of enemy radio-electronic objects; comprehensive technical monitoring of the condition and protection of one’s own objects from technical means of reconnaissance),

Electronic defense (protection from electronic means of destruction; protection from unintentional interference (ensuring electromagnetic compatibility); protection of troops and objects from technical reconnaissance equipment).

The troop and weapons control system makes it possible to implement the principles of conducting network-centric wars, implying a transition from the territorial concentration of forces to their functional (information) integration. Naturally, this increases the role of electronic warfare and increases its capabilities (potentially reducing the enemy’s combat power by three times).

Taking into account the state of electronic warfare equipment produced for the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, it is customary to talk about integrated electronic warfare systems, combining about 50 different complexes and means for various purposes (see table). Wherein main problem is the creation of a unified information space for electronic warfare equipment.

The most classified in the entire arsenal of Russian electronic warfare equipment Until recently there was a jamming station "Krasukha-2". It seems that at present the palm has passed to the Murmansk-BN communication line suppression station, capable of jamming more than two dozen frequencies at a range of up to 5 thousand kilometers. However, there is reliable evidence that the newest complex has such characteristics, no. Judging by the photographs available in open sources (several four-axle off-road trucks with multi-meter towers), where, in addition to the main antennas, characteristic low-frequency guy antennas are visible, it can be assumed that this complex is capable of jamming signals in the range from 200 to 500 MHz. The coastal complex "Murmansk-BN" even outwardly bears little resemblance to what the Russian ground forces use to protect and counter the enemy. Some experts, commenting on information about the combat duty of these complexes in the Russian army, note that in the case of "Murmansk-BN" we're talking about on electronic countermeasures strategic purpose. The thing is that the main task of the unique telescopic antennas and transmitters of the electronic warfare complex is to disrupt communication and control channels over vast distances.

The main directions of development of electronic warfare in the Russian Federation are as follows:


Creation of highly mobile ground-based multifunctional electronic warfare systems for zone and site protection of weapons and military equipment from electronic reconnaissance systems and destruction by guided weapons;

Creation of wide-range electronic warfare systems and means for group and individual protection of air, sea and ground-based weapons and military equipment;

Development of means of radio-electronic suppression of radio-electronic equipment (RES) with complex broadband signals, including those with quickly tunable (from pulse to pulse) parameters;

Development of means of electronic suppression of multi-position systems for radar reconnaissance, target designation and weapon control;

Increasing the accuracy of executive electronic reconnaissance to determine the location of emitting objects.

Main domestic manufacturers of electronic warfare equipment (market share):


JSC "Concern "Radioelectronic Technologies"", KRET (60%),

JSC "Concern "Sozvezdie"" (20%),

JSC "Central Research Radio Engineering Institute named after Academician A.I. Berg", TsNIRI (10%),

JSC "Scientific and Technical Center for Electronic Warfare", Scientific and Technical Center for Electronic Warfare (5%),

LLC "Special Technology Center" (5%).

The leading enterprise is KRET JSC. In many sectors, the concern has a virtual monopoly position on the Russian market in the supply of electronic warfare equipment with electronic reconnaissance and weapons control systems. Electronic warfare equipment and systems developed by KRET are equipped on Su-25, Su-27SM, Su-30, Su-34, Su-35, Il-76, Il-78, Il-96, Tu-214 aircraft, and Mi helicopters -8, Mi-26, Mi-28, Mi-35 and Ka-52, as well as surface ships of projects 1144, 1164, 1155, 956, 11540, 22350, 20380, 21631. The most favorable situation for the concern is developing on the market aviation complexes and electronic warfare equipment. The reasons for this, in addition to the global increase in demand for electronic warfare equipment in the world, are: 1) the expected increase in supplies of Russian aircraft(LA); 2) the projected increase in the share of aircraft supplied with electronic warfare equipment for individual and group protection; 3) purchase by foreign states of electronic warfare equipment as part of the program for modernizing their own fleet of Russian/Soviet-made aircraft.

The evolution of electronic warfare systems has accelerated sharply. At the end of the 20th century, the Ministry of Defense required a service life of 15-20 years. Today life cycle electronic warfare devices has been reduced to four to five years. Electronics is developing too quickly. Therefore, leading manufacturers are moving to modular device designs. The basis of the system, the platform, can serve for 20 years, but there are standardized modules for mounting and interface that allow you to improve the equipment by changing not the entire complex, but individual blocks. In other words: he installed a new scientifically “advanced” unit and received new opportunities!

The re-equipment of electronic warfare troops with new types of equipment is based on the results of a military-scientific justification of the composition of electronic warfare troops and proposals for the project state program weapons for the period 2018-2025. By 2020, electronic warfare troops must effectively ensure the implementation of the following tasks of the RF Armed Forces:

Disorganization of the enemy’s state and military administration (including its industrial infrastructure);

Disorganization of command and control of enemy troops (forces) and weapons in military operations of various scales and intensity;

Reducing the enemy's global space reconnaissance capabilities;

Countering missile defense systems;

Reflecting (disrupting) an enemy aerospace attack;

Protection of objects and military equipment from damage by high-precision weapons.

The main efforts to develop the weapons system of electronic warfare troops are planned to be focused on the implementation of one traditional and five innovative areas.

The innovative path of development involves, firstly, the creation of controlled radio interference fields on enemy territory using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and dropped jammers. Secondly, it is planned to create means of destroying electronic power systems electromagnetic radiation. Third; A special program intervention is being developed. Fourthly, great importance is attached to simulating the radio-electronic situation and introducing disinformation into the enemy’s system of command and control of troops and weapons. Finally, fifthly, it is planned to increase the level of information security of electronic warfare control bodies and control points.

Among specialists, the term “Intellectual suppression” has come into practice. It is based on known technologies for creating simulation (relay) interference. The peculiarity is that thanks to the placement of small-sized, low-power signal repeaters of suppressed radio-electronic equipment in the protected area and the control of these repeaters using special algorithms, it becomes possible to create a false virtual radio-electronic environment and ensure an impact on his troop and weapon control systems hidden from the enemy. The “intelligent” nature of suppression is ensured mainly due to the mathematical apparatus implemented in the system and modern communication technologies.

The practical implementation of the entire complex of planned measures to improve the electronic warfare system will predictably lead to a significant increase in the contribution of electronic warfare to gaining superiority in command and control of troops (forces) and the use of weapons. At the same time, the volume of tasks performed by electronic warfare troops in various strategic directions will increase by 2-2.5 times by 2020.

"We are proactive"


As Yuri Ivanovich Mayevsky, deputy general director JSC "Concern "Radioelectronic Technologies"" for R&D of electronic warfare equipment, general designer, "we work proactively. There are various forecasting methods, and when developing our promising systems, we model the capabilities of a conditional enemy in 2030. Of course, some uncertainty remains, and we build into our complexes an excess of capabilities capable of fending off this uncertainty.”

World electronic warfare market currently valued at approximately $14 billion per year. In the coming years, the average annual growth rate is expected to be 4%, the market size will reach $19 billion by 2025.

The main competitors of Russian enterprises on the world market: American (Lockheed Martin Corporation, Northrop Grumman Corporation, The Boeing Company, Raytheon Company, ITT Corporation, BAE Systems), European (Thales Group, Elettronica, Indra) and Israeli manufacturers (Elta Systems, Rafael).

In the USA under the ACT program Northrop Grumman is conducting research and development work to create solid-state broadband aircraft active phased antenna arrays (AFARs) capable of performing radar and electronic warfare tasks in the centimeter wave range. As part of the creation of a new generation jamming station (NGJ) for the EA-18G Grouler jammer aircraft, commissioned by the US Navy, Raytheon is developing solid-state broadband AFARs in the decimeter and centimeter wave ranges.

On July 13, more than 1 thousand conscripted military personnel who arrived at the Tambov Interspecific Center for the Training and Combat Use of Electronic Warfare (EW) Forces began training in 23 specialties in more than 40 types of EW and integrated technical control (CTC) products.

One of the main features of training for junior specialist positions will be training in the operation of new electronic warfare systems and Leer-3. At the same time, the complexes, “Krasukha-20” and training of cadets will be carried out for the first time. This is due, first of all, to the arrival of the latest types of weapons and electronic warfare equipment into the troops. It should be noted that in 2014, more than 10 units of electronic warfare troops were re-equipped with modern models of equipment.

The training of cadets will take place in three stages: improving the initial military training, combined arms training and specialty training. The main focus during educational process will be devoted to practical work on equipment, including at night.

In the new period of study, a significant part of the classes is devoted to practical exercises on specialized simulators industrial production and computer simulators developed by specialists from the Tambov Interspecific Center for the Training and Combat Use of Electronic Warfare Troops.

The four-month training will culminate in passing exams and obtaining a certificate. electronic warfare specialist(KTK), then military personnel will be sent to formations, military units and electronic warfare units (KTK) for the positions of operators and senior operators, reports the press service of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

Technical information

Complexes developed and adopted by the Russian army "Krasukha"- These are electronic suppression (RES) and protection complexes. REP is a set of actions and measures that are aimed at disrupting or disrupting the operation, as well as reducing the combat effectiveness of the enemy’s use of radio-electronic equipment and systems by influencing their receiving devices with electronic interference. Modern electronic suppression includes: radio, optical-electronic, radio-technical and hydroacoustic suppression.

REF can be achieved through the creation of active and passive jamming, as well as the use of various types of decoys and decoys.

The radio-electronic suppression station 1L269 "Krasukha-2" created at the Rostov Scientific Research Institute "Gradient" is a truly unique system. This station was designed taking into account the generalization combat experience which was received Russian army during the armed conflict of August 2008 in South Ossetia.

The Russian military learned bitter lessons from a conflict in which electronic warfare units were barely used. Also for this reason Russian Air Force lost a number of Su-25 and Tu-22M3 combat aircraft.

Most likely, this station was created taking into account the suppression of aircraft-based surveillance radars such as AWACS, flying radars like the American E-8 Joint Star, as well as modern UAVs such as Predator and Global Hawk.

State tests of the 1L269 Krasukha-2 electronic countermeasures stations were completed in 2009. Externally, these vehicles are similar to conventional radars, which are mounted on a BAZ-6910-022 automobile chassis, 8x8 wheel arrangement. The cabin of this vehicle is equipped with means of protection against microwave radiation. It is equipped with an independent air heater OH-32D-24 and a Webasto CC4E air conditioner with electric drive.

The main purpose of the Kpacyxa-2O product is electronic suppression of on-board radar stations of the Avax type long-range radar detection and control system.

Since 2009, the Krasukha-2 ground-based electronic warfare systems have been supplied to the Russian Armed Forces. Technical details complexes like "Krasukha" are classified. The stations were developed by the Gradient Research Institute and produced by the Kvant Research and Production Association.

"Borisoglebsk-2", in comparison with its predecessor - the Mandat complex modernized in 2001, has better specifications: expanded frequency range of radio reconnaissance and electronic suppression equipment, increased scanning speed of the frequency range, reduced reaction time for unknown frequencies, more high accuracy location of the radio emission source, increased capacity of suppression equipment.

The software of the complex was developed according to uniform requirements for the interface of an automated operator workstation, which ensures the convenience of work for officials when moving from one facility to another.
