In Russia, the tests of the new military artillery sound-thermal complex of military intelligence called "Penicillin" were successfully completed. In a year, a couple of samples of the complex will already be delivered to the ground forces of the Russian army.
The duties of the artillery reconnaissance complex 1B75 Penicillin include the search for firing positions of artillery pieces, mortars and enemy volley fire systems.
It is noteworthy that the complex can perform combat missions assigned to it at a width of up to 25 km across.
The principle of work of "Penicillin" is simple, but unique. It receives sound signals from the shots of enemy guns and shells from their own, as well as enemy guns. Then an acoustic analysis of the data is performed. As a result, after processing the data, the location of the enemy's artillery is established, in addition, the accuracy of hitting the enemy objects of their artillery is revealed.
