DISTRIBUTION OF DRINKING AUTOMATIC AEROSOL MASKING SYSTEM FOR NON-SPECIALIZED VEHICLE AND EVACUATION TRANSPORT

Abstract

The relevance of this study is due to the large losses of troops and personnel from enemy FPV drones and unmanned aerial vehicles during active hostilities. The use of this type of weapon does not allow for the rapid evacuation of wounded soldiers from the battlefield and leads to irreversible losses of personnel. The task of increasing the level of protection of servicemen and military medics by engineering support forces and means, their camouflage with service and non-standard camouflage kits in the conditions of combat operations is a very urgent task, because its solution allows to save the lives of soldiers. In this regard, this article is aimed at solving this problem by developing a new semi-automatic aerosol camouflage system for non-specialised military and evacuation vehicles, which are widely used in modern warfare. The aerosol camouflage system proposed by the authors can be installed on any vehicle used for the transport of personnel or for the evacuation of the wounded by quickly integrating it into the vehicle structure.The article presents a detailed description of the design of the created aerosol camouflage system, as well as its main advantages over the existing standard systems that are widely used in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Since the systems currently in service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine are obsolete and expensive to manufacture, there is a need to create new, inexpensive, but highly effective means of aerosol camouflage. The materials of the article are of practical importance for the command of troops, since the use of the proposed camouflage methods will help increase their survivability in combat conditions and reduce losses from attacks by unmanned aerial vehicles and FPV drones.
