Voronezh radars ((ロシア語:Воронеж)) are the current generation of Russian early-warning radar, providing long distance monitoring of airspace against ballistic missile attack and aircraft monitoring. The first radar, in Lekhtusi near St Petersburg, became operational in 2009. There is a plan to replace older radars with the Voronezh by 2020.〔 Their common name follows the pattern of Soviet radars in being named after a river, the Voronezh. The previous generation of radar was known as the Daryal (after Darial Gorge), Volga (after Volga River) and Daugava (Daugava River) and the generation before the Dnepr (Dnieper River), and Dnestr (Dniester River). The Voronezh radars are described as highly prefabricated meaning that they have a set up time of months rather than years and need fewer personnel than previous generations. They are also modular so that a radar can be brought into (partial) operation whilst being incomplete.〔 Russia has used the launch of these new radars to raise its concerns about US missile defence in Europe. At the launch of the Kaliningrad radar in November 2011 Russian President Dmitry Medvedev was quoted as saying "''I expect that this step'' (launch of the radar ) ''will be seen by our partners as the first signal of our country's readiness to make an adequate response to the threats which the missile shield poses for our strategic nuclear forces''."〔 ==Types== All types are phased array radar.〔http://army-news.ru/2010/10/sistemy-preduprezhdeniya/〕 *Voronezh-M (77Ya6-M) works in the meter range of wavelengths (VHF) and was designed by RTI Mints. *Voronezh-DM (77Ya6-DM) works in the decimeter range (UHF) and was designed by NPK NIIDAR. It has a range of up to 10,000 km and is capable of simultaneously tracking 500 objects.〔(Задача по быстрому развертыванию РЛС в России выполнима, сообщает ВКО ) РИА Новости〕 In 2015, its maximum range is 10,000 km. Its horizon range is 6000 km and vertical range is 8000 km. At a distance of 8000 km, the radar can detect targets the size of a "football ball."〔http://tvzvezda.ru/news/forces/content/201505161418-5ky4.htm〕 *Voronezh-VP (77Ya6-VP) works in the meter range (VHF) and was designed by RTI Mints. The only one built has 6 segments instead of the 3 of the Voronezh-M.〔 A Voronezh-M is claimed to cost 2.85 billion rubles and a Voronezh-DM 4.3 billion rubles.〔〔 This compares to the 5 billion ruble cost of a Dnepr and 19.8 billion rubles for a Daryal,〔 at current prices. Voronezh systems are manufactured at the Saransk Television Plant.〔 Their designers, Sergey Boev (RTI), Sergey Saprykin (NIIDAR), and Valeriy Karasev (RTI Mints), were jointly awarded the 2011 State Prize for Science and Technology for their work on the Voronezh.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「voronezh radar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
