The Belarusian defense industry has presented an automated fire control and guidance system for the BM-21 Grad and BM-27 Uragan multiple launch rocket systems.
This was reported by the State Military-Industrial Committee of Belarus.
The developer is the company VOLATAVTO. The system consists of a tablet with specialized software and compact electronic units. Its integration does not require significant modification of the standard combat vehicle.
The system can receive target data from higher command levels and reconnaissance assets.
The upgrade allows crews to control fire directly from the cab.
Other technical details have not been disclosed, and there is no information on potential adoption by the Belarusian army.
At the same time, in addition to modernizing Soviet-era MLRS, the Belarusian defense industry produces ammunition for them, including for Russia.
In particular, in early April, the Belarusian opposition reported the identification of several defense enterprises producing components for 152 mm artillery shells and 122 mm rockets for the Grad MLRS for the Russian defense industry.
A broad network of enterprises is involved in the production of 122 mm rockets.
Among them are the Legmash Plant, MTZ, Minsk Thermoplast Plant, BAZtube, as well as Olsa and SZOS.
These enterprises supply components to Russian manufacturers — the SHTAMP Machine-Building Plant and NPO SPLAV, where final assembly of the rockets takes place.
Separately, companies producing launcher components are involved in the production and maintenance of the Grad MLRS. In particular, Minotor-Service, the Pinsk Plant of Small Mechanization and the Agat-Electromechanical Plant supply relevant components to Russia for repair and production of new systems.
