- More than 200 modern navigators have been delivered this year to
equip the Russian military base which has been stationed in Armenia
in accordance with an interstate agreement signed by the Russian
Federation and Armenia, an unnamed source from the Russian base told
Itar-Tass on Wednesday.
The navigators known as "Perunit"," Grot" and "Briz" by the Russian
classification are compatible with the GLONASS and GPS systems,
which contributes to their reliability and ensures a high degree of
precision, it said.
The new navigators have a broad frequency band, an enhanced signal
power, are capable to establish a target's coordinates with a high
degree of precision and are provided with an enlarged power source,
it said.
The navigators can operate in an intensive mode up to 12 hours under
air temperatures ranging from 30 degrees below zero to 55 degrees
Celsius above zero despite heavy humidity and precipitation. Besides,
they are capable to programme up to 200 routes. The new systems
enable to make preparations for shooting and gunfire control drills,
in particular, determine a target's topographic parameters and correct
a shooting trajectory, it said.
The new navigators will be practically used during combat drills in
motorized rifle, reconnaissance, artillery and other units of the
Russian base during summer drills, the source said.
The Russian military base has been stationed in Armenia according to
an agreement Russia and Armenia signed in 1995. In 2010 the initial
agreement was amended to extend the presence of the Russian base in
Armenia from 25 to 49 years.
