COMMAND POST
The 9S470M1 is an autonomous complex incorporating automatic control and communications
equipment, as well as power supply and life support systems mounted on the GM 5965 tracked vehicle
chassis. The 9S470M1 provides for:
- automatic reception, processing, identification
and display of radar data from six sources: a higher-
level command post (MP22R or 9C737M systems);
a radar station (P19, Kupol or their versions) or a
helicopter-borne radar early warning system; and four
ADM system (Tor-M1) combat vehicles;
- automatic target distribution, targeting or fire
interdiction; - automatic reception of targeting data
from a higher-level command post and target
distribution;
- automatic reception of data fromADM systems,
its processing and indication on a situation display
(position and readiness for fire) and an automatic
transmission of these data to a higher-level command
post;
- formulation and reporting to a higher-level
command post on received targeting data and taken measures, as well as independently selected targets
and engagement results;
- recording the status and combat operations of ADM systems and battery command post;
- determination of accurate position and time by GLONASS and Navstar GPS satellite navigation
systems.
Maximum number of target tracks up to 60, target signatures 170. Number of target tracks from each
ADM combat vehicle up to 9. Number of displayed ground objects up to 15. The 9S470M1 has
communication range up to 30 km. A crew consist of 5 men.

SNOW DRIFT
The 9S18M1 “Kupol-M1” (NATO codename “Snow Drift”) early warning and acquisition radar
provides target height, bearing and range data. This is a centimetric all altitude 3-D radar, which has a
detection range of 160 km against high-flying targets, 45 km against targets at an altitude of 100 meters,
and 23 km against targets flying nap-of-the-earth (NOE). The radar’s tracking range extending from 80
km for high-flying targets to 20 km for NOE targets. Tracking of helicopters hovering at 30 m can be made
as far as 10 km. Once a target is identified it is turned
over to an TELAR via a data link for tracking and
attack. The “Snow Drift” receives early warning from
brigade-level surveillance radars such as the Spoon
Rest. The radar is mounted on GM-567 cross-
country cassis and has its own 75 Kw gas turbine
driven generator, although also can use industrial
supply via convertor. Time of continuous operation
for the “Snow Drift” consist of 48 hours. A crew
consist of 3 men.
SA-17 TELAR
The 9A317 “Buk-M2” was developed and produced as the evolutionary replacement system for the “Buk-
M1-2” and is similar in concept to that system. This variant incorporates some of the most prominent design
changes to date. The new fully autonomous 9A317 TELAR is equipped with a 9S36 passive phased array
antenna equipped radar, replacing the mechanically steered antenna in earlier 9S35 equipped TELARs. The
system completed development in 1990 and has not yet entered full series production, although it was formally
accepted into service during 1995. Instead the “Buk-M2” was entered full service with the Russian Army in
2008, once further testing is complete. Reports emanating from Moscow in September 2010, suggested that
the “Buk-M2” was successfully deployed to the Astrakhan Proving Grounds where test firings took place
againstvarious targets, including cruise missiles. Five
targets were engaged and destroyed by the upgraded
system that also boasts increased range plus the ability
to lock onto as many as 24 incoming targets, as opposed
to six with previous batteries. The “Buk-M2” is
designed to engage strategic and tactical aircraft, tactical
ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, tactical air-launched
missiles, helicopters (including hovering targets), and
RPV’s at extremely low levels (around 10 m) up to
25,000 m altitude for a distance 3 - 45 km.
Note about asset: it contain two hierarchically linked
models of the TELAR in stowed and deployed
positions.This help understand, how the model should
be looked in these positions.

SA-11/SA-17 TELL
The 9A316 transporter erector launcher loader (TELL)
resembles the normalTELAR, but replaces the fire control
radarwithahydrauliccraneforreloadingmissiles.TheTELL
can load itself in rear areas from the 9T229 transporter in 15
minutes, and take those missiles to reload theTELAR in 13
minutes.TheTELLcan launch missiles, though it requires
radar guidance from a nearby TELAR. The 9A316 was
introduced as part of the newest “Buk-M2” system, but
can be used in all previous systems from the “Buk” family.
Note about asset: it contain two hierarchically
linked models of the TELL in stowed and deployed
positions. This help understand, how the model
should be looked in these positions.

FIRE DOME
The most interesting component of the newest
“Buk-M2” system is the standalone mast mounted
9S36 phased array, designed to provide extended
low altitude and surface coverage, in air defence but
also maritime coastal defence applications. This design
uses a 21 metre telescoping and elevating mast which
mounts a radar head with the 9S36. Each mast
mounted 9S36 engagement radar controls a pair of
9A316 TELL. The 9S36 can track 4 targets
simultaneously and has detection range 100 km.
TELL RELOADING
This scene represent TELL reloading process.
It contain a model of SA-11/SA-17 TELL loaded
by Ural-375 mobile crane from 9T229 missile
transporter. The missile transporter is loaded with
4 sealed missile containers.
