54K6E
Command
Post.
The best known of the Russian mobile battery command
posts is the 54K6 series, associated with the S-300PS/PM/PMU SA-10
Grumble and S-300PMU1/PMU2 SA-20 Gargoyle Surface to Air Missile
systems.

Background
A topic which receives far too
little attention in the air power debate is that of command posts,
especially mobile command posts. These often less than conspicuous
components of air defence systems and missile batteries account for the
"Integrated" in any Integrated Air Defence System.
The Soviets had a number of designs which have since evolved heavily,
especially with the infusion of COTS digital computer technology.
Contemporary production designs make full use of large LCD panel
display technology and digital processing.
The page is primarily a compilation of Russian and ByeloRussian
manufacturer's data and imagery.

Senezh M1E Brigade / Regiment
Air Defence Command Post
The 5S99 Senezh series of
mobile command posts were developed during the latter Cold War to
support V-PVO S-75/SA-2 Guideline, S-125/SA3 Goa, S-200V/D/SA-5 Gammon,
S-300P/SA-10 Grumble and PVO-SV S-300V batteries, and V-PVO and FA VVS
interceptors such as the Su-27 and MiG-29. The system was developed by
OKB Peleng and built by GPO Vector.
The current production 34L6
Senezh M1E is a heavily upgraded design,
utilising the existing semi-trailer configuration, but replacing the
KrAZ tow tractor with a contemporary KAMAZ tractor. The system is
capable of accepting data feeds from most Russian radar types, and the
A-50 AWACS system.
The
latest
configuration
of the Senezh M1E uses a new technology tow
tractor (Said Aminov - Vestnik PVO).

Ranzhir E Battery Command Post / SA-13 / SA-15 / SA-19 / SA-22
The most common variant of the Ranzhir
series of mobile command posts is carried on a tracked chassis derived
from the MTLBu series.
The Ranzhir series of mobile
command posts was originally developed for the PVO-SV to provide a
tracked and hardened ADCP for batteries of point defence weapons, such
as SPAAGs and SAM systems. Early variants were deployed to provide
battery C3 for the SA-15, SA-17, SA-19 systems. More recent variants
are used with the SA-13, replacing legacy ADCPs, and the new wheeled
SA-15 and SA-22, in a wheeled configuration. A single Ranzhir usually
supports 4 to 6 TELARs, SPAAGMs or SPAAGs.

The
Ranzhir E/M is also available in a lower cost truck variant, intended
for
applications where high road mobility is important. For instance a

54K6/54K6E/E1
S-300P / SA-10/20 Battery
Command Post
An early model 54K6E2 command
post used with
the S-300PMU2 Favorit / SA-20B system.
The 54K6 family of mobile
battery command posts first appeared during the 1980s as part of the
high mobility S-300PS / SA-10B Grumble B SAM system. The design
combined a
command post cabin with a MAZ-7910 chassis, and included a telescoping
mast for the radio datalink which networked all of the battery
elements. The design progressively evolved as the S-300P family of
missiles evolved. The final variants of this system provided
significant integration capabilities, with the ability to network the
battery 30N6E2 engagement radars, and some legacy SAM engagement
radars. The 83M6E2 designation is reserved for a paired 64N6E2 Big Bird
acquisition radar and a 54K6E2 command post.
A typical operational architecture will see the 54K6E2 networked with a
Polyana TsM sector command post, to provide bidirectional transfer of
target data.

9S457/9S457M
S-300V/VM SA-12 / SA-23 Battery Command Post
The 9S457 family of mobile battery command posts was specifically
developed for the PVO-SV S-300V SAM system. A modernised variant of
this design is the 9S457M used with the S-300VM/Antey 2500. The design
shares the tracked chassis with other battery elements, and uses a
telescoping mast to maximise RF datalink coverage footprint. The
vehicle weight 39 tonnes and carries a crew of seven.
The composition of a typical S-300VM battery includes a 9S15M2 Bill
Board acquisition radar, a 9S19M High Screen engagement radar, a
9S457M command posts, four 9S32M Grill Pan engagement radars, twenty
four 9A83M and 9A82 TELARs, with a ready load of 48 x 9M82M SAMs, and
96 x 9M83M SAMs.

54K6E2
S-300PMU2/SA-20B Battery Command Post
55K6
S-400/SA-21 Battery Command Post
An S-400 55K6 Command Post with
deployed antenna mast. This design is visually indistinguishable from
the S-300PMU2 54K6E2 Command Post (image © Miroslav
Gyűrösi).
The 54K6E2 and 55K6/55K6E are
the respective Command Posts for the S-300PMU2 and S-400 SAM systems.
While both share common vehicles, containers, consoles, computer
hardware and antennas, the 55K6 has more extensive capabilities to
integrate with other IADS components, and specific interfaces and
software for S-400 Triumf radar systems.
The new digital CP design fits into one half the volume and mass of
the legacy 54K6E CP, with 3 to 4 times lower power consumption.
- The CP is now installed in the same container and carried
by the same 8 x 8 Ural 532361
truck as the 55K6E;
- Electrical power for the CP is produced via a power
take-off on the engine transmission of the Ural 532301 truck, rather
than using a separate APU;
- The mission computer in the CP was replaced by a new
ruggedised Elbrus-90 Mikro
SPARC architecture quad CPU system, with a 500 MHz clock and 500 MB of
RAM. All code is implemented in C language, and includes modules for
controlling the 64N6E2 Big Bird;
- Common workstation consoles are employed, using LCD panel
displays and embedded RAMEK processors;
- A new STRS-ME voice/data digital communications system;
- A new Luch-M48 millimetre wave band narrow beam datalink
for secure data transfers between the CP and acquisition radar;
- A new 93Ya6-05 datalink terminal to provide connectivity to
other CPs, acquisition radars, and external sources of track data;
- A new 11Ya6ME voice communications link, based on the R-168-25UE radio
equipment.
Composition of the 55K6 C3 suite has not been disclosed.
