According to the chief of the Rosoboronexport`s Security Department and the head of company`s delegation at SOFEX 2016 show, Valery Varlamov, Russian weapons are required in the Near Eastern region.

The 2B25 Gall 82mm man-portable mortar has been developed by TTsNII Burevestnik scientific-research institute (a subsidiary of the Uralvagonzavod scientific-production corporation). It has a combat weight of 13 kg, a maximum firing range of 1,200 m and a fire rate of 15 mortar shells per minute. 2B25 fires special 3VO35E shells with sound similar to a single shot from Kalashnikov 7.62mm AKM-B silenced assault rifle. Uran 6 is an UGV intended for mine clearance. It has a combat weight of 6,8 t and a speed of 5 km/h. The vehicle equipped with flail sweep can destroy explosive devices with weight of up to 4 kg. Russian engineers are actively using Uran 6 UGVs during route clearance in the vicinities of the Palmira city in Syria. It is supposed to be one of the most effective engineer UGVs in the world, being able to destroy both landmines and improvised explosive devices (IED). Rosoboronexport organizes Russian national defense exposition at SOFEX 2016 defense show. The Tekhmash Concern (a subsidiary of the Rostec State Corporation) and Kronstadt Group is also demonstrating their military equipment. |
