  • Hezbollah's Missiles and Rockets
    JULY 2017 CSIS BRIEFS CSIS Hezbollah’s Missiles and Rockets An Overview By Shaan Shaikh and Ian Williams JULY 2018 THE ISSUE Hezbollah is the world’s most heavily armed non-state actor, with a large and diverse stockpile of unguided artillery rockets, as well as ballistic, antiair, antitank, and antiship missiles. Hezbollah views its rocket and missile arsenal as its primary deterrent against Israeli military action, while also useful for quick retaliatory strikes and longer military engagements. Hezbollah’s unguided rocket arsenal has increased significantly since the 2006 Lebanon War, and the party’s increased role in the Syrian conflict raises concerns about its acquisition of more sophisticated standoff and precision-guided missiles, whether from Syria, Iran, or Russia. This brief provides a summary of the acquisition history, capabilities, and use of these forces.

  • Iran's Compliance with UNSCR 2231
    Iran’s Compliance with UNSCR 2231 Alleged Violations Must Be Addressed Valerie Lincy IRAN WATCH REPORT Behnam Ben Taleblu August 2017 1 Executive Summary UN Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 2231 implements the 2015 nuclear agreement with Iran and imposes missile- and arms-related restrictions. Little-noticed biannual reporting by the UN Secretary General alleges that Iran is repeatedly violating these non-nuclear provisions. Thus far, the United States has responded to such violations with sanctions and designations of Iranian and foreign entities supporting Tehran’s ballistic missile development. However, the UN and its member states have not responded. More must be done to investigate allegations of noncompliance and to punish violations of the resolution. The Challenge of Responding to Alleged Violations of UNSCR 2231 On July 27, Iran tested its Simorgh satellite launch vehicle from a newly inaugurated space center.1 In response, the United States, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom addressed a letter to the UN Security Council calling the test “a threatening and provocative step” and “inconsistent” with UNSCR 2231, which codifies the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) nuclear deal.2 The countries expressed alarm over Iran’s satellite launch vehicle test because it could help extend the range of Tehran’s nuclear-capable ballistic missiles. The Simorgh test is only the latest example of Tehran’s defiance of ballistic missile restrictions set forth in Annex B of UNSCR 2231. According to a June 20 report by the UN Secretary General,3 Iran may have violated the prescribed limitations on arms imports and exports and ballistic missile testing, as well as entity-specific prohibitions on multiple occasions.

  • Russian Military Capability in a Ten-Year Perspective 2016
    The Russian Armed Forces are developing from a force primarily designed for handling internal – 2016 Perspective Ten-Year in a Capability Military Russian disorder and conflicts in the area of the former Soviet Union towards a structure configured for large-scale operations also beyond that area. The Armed Forces can defend Russia from foreign aggression in 2016 better than they could in 2013. They are also a stronger instrument of coercion than before. This report analyses Russian military capability in a ten-year perspective. It is the eighth edition. A change in this report compared with the previous edition is that a basic assumption has been altered. In 2013, we assessed fighting power under the assumption that Russia was responding to an emerging threat with little or no time to prepare operations. In view of recent events, we now estimate available assets for military operations in situations when Russia initiates the use of armed force. The fighting power of the Russian Armed Forces is studied. Fighting power means the available military assets for three overall missions: operational-strategic joint inter-service combat operations (JISCOs), stand-off warfare and strategic deterrence. The potential order of battle is estimated for these three missions, i.e. what military forces Russia is able to generate and deploy in 2016. The fighting power of Russia’s Armed Forces has continued to increase – primarily west of the Urals. Russian military strategic theorists are devoting much thought not only to military force, but also to all kinds of other – non-military – means. The trend in security policy continues to be based on anti- Americanism, patriotism and authoritarianism at home.

  • Cnc Coding Using Siemens 810D Control System for Manufacturing Konkurs-M Missile Syed Shoeb Pasha, Mohammed Abdul Rahil Juned, Mohammed Furqan Uddin, Mohammad Owais
    © 2020 JETIR November 2020, Volume 7, Issue 11 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) CNC CODING USING SIEMENS 810D CONTROL SYSTEM FOR MANUFACTURING KONKURS-M MISSILE SYED SHOEB PASHA, MOHAMMED ABDUL RAHIL JUNED, MOHAMMED FURQAN UDDIN, MOHAMMAD OWAIS DR. SYED AZAM PASHA QUADRI, PROFESSOR & HOD, DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, LORDS INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY. Abstract We have taken up bush component manufacturing. According to process plan tools were selected and mounted. As per given drawing and design CNC program is coded accordingly. Using Siemens control system the program is executed and bush is manufactured in EMCO Turn 700 and Turn 365 machines. FIRST STAGE- Process plan SECOND STAGE- Selection of tools The tools are selected according to the operations to be performed and precision level that as to be given. THIRD STAGE- CNC, Program. CNC program has been generated according to the sequence of operations, clearance and precision. FOURTH STAGE- Executed. 1. INTRODUCTION The 9M113 Fagot (‘Bassoon’; NATO reporting name: AT-4 Spigot) and 9M113 Konkurs (‘Contest’; NATO: AT-5 Spandrel) were partially codeveloped as semi-automatic command to line-of-sight (SACLOS) replacements for the 9M14 Malyutka (Little One; NATO: AT-3 Sagger). The earlier 9M14 featured manual command to line-of-sight (MCLOS) guidance, requiring an operator to manually guide the missile onto target. This method required a high degree of skill to operate, and necessitated controlling the missile’s flight through a magnifying periscope from a fixed position. Development began in 1962 at KBP Tula, under the oversight of chief designer Arkadiy G. Shipunov, formerly of the Central Scientific Research Institute for Precision Machine Engineering (TsNIITochMash).
