GRAY index

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coat of arms of the Ministry of Defense's Headquarters for Missiles and Artillery

The GRAU index (until 1960 GAU index) is a designation system for weapons, ammunition and equipment that have been used in the land forces of the Soviet army or are used in the land forces of the Russian armed forces . This index was originally issued by the Ministry of Defense's Headquarters for Missiles and Artillery (GRAU; Russian Главное ракетно-артиллерийское управление МО , ГРАУ ). The index is now also used by the Missile Armament Administration (Управление ракетного вооружения) of the Strategic Missile Forces and the Headquarters of the Space Forces . The administration of missile weapons and artillery of the naval war fleet and the administration of weapons of the air force use similarly structured indices.

The NATO used its own for Soviet weapons systems Identification System . Due to the limited information available for NATO, the NATO code name cannot always be clearly assigned to the GRAU index.

development

The first index was introduced by the then Artillery Headquarters (Главное артиллерийское управление Министерства обороны - ГАУ) in 1938. The aim was to record and categorize the various weapons, ammunition and items of equipment. The individual weapons, ammunition and pieces of equipment were named after the department of the GAU that was responsible for them. In detail, the GAU consisted of the following departments:

  • 51 - military equipment
  • 52 - Artillery materials management
  • 53 - Artillery ammunition, ammunition for grenade launchers and mines, including detonators and packaging
  • 54 - Artillery propellants and their components and packaging
  • 55 - Air Force bombs
  • 56 - infantry weapons
  • 57 - infantry ammunition

In 1960, the GAU was restructured into the Ministry of Defense's headquarters for missiles and artillery. The reason for the organizational changes were the numerous new weapon systems. On the one hand, their large number required a change in organizational structures; on the other hand, these weapons systems were increasingly complex. While in the 1930s and 1940s it was easy to differentiate between the actual weapon and associated ammunition and target devices, launch vehicles, radio measuring and computing devices and a variety of support vehicles were now added. These could not, or only with difficulty, be managed with the system used to date. From 1956 the main administration was divided into six departments:

  • 1 - optical and radio measuring devices, steering systems
  • 2 - artillery weapons and grenade launchers
  • 3 - artillery ammunition
  • 4 - Propellant charges for artillery ammunition
  • 6 - infantry weapons
  • 7 - infantry ammunition.

The establishment of new armed forces, but also the increasingly complex armament and equipment required an expansion of the index. The newly developed missile systems were originally assigned to Department 2 - artillery weapons and grenade launchers, launch ramps and vehicles also to Department 2, and missiles and missiles to Department 3 - artillery ammunition. Division 9 was later formed for the missile systems of the land forces. Weapons already in the index were not re-classified if they had already been included in the armament of the Soviet Army. However, newly developed equipment for these weapons has been placed in the new index.

The Air Defense Weapons Administration (Управление Вооружения Войск ПВО) assigned the systems, weapons and equipment under its responsibility to Division 5. The Missile Armament Administration of the Strategic Missile Forces initially used Department 8 to categorize the systems, weapons and equipment they were responsible for. With the establishment of the Space Forces, Department 11 was set up for their headquarters and later expanded to include Departments 14 and 17, while the Administration of missile armament of the strategic missile troops classified their systems, weapons and equipment in Division 15. The index 15 is currently used by the strategic missile forces and the indexes 14 and 17 are used by the space forces.

The indices of the administration of missile weapons and artillery of the Soviet naval fleet and the administration of weapons of the Soviet air force follow the same principle and have a similar structure, but in some cases have a very different meaning, which often leads to misunderstandings and confusion.

Allocation of the indices

The index was awarded until 1960 with the inclusion of weapons, ammunition and equipment in the armament of the Soviet Army. Prototypes and pre-series samples were not given an index.

From 1960, the index with the technical task for the prototype was assigned. That is why systems that have not been included in the armament of the Soviet Army have a corresponding index. Systems whose development was discontinued before the prototypes were built do not have a GRAU index and only have a factory designation.

Structure of the indices

GAU index (until 1960)

The names have the form <number> <letter> <number> with the optional suffix <letter> <number> . The first two-digit group of numbers designates the department of the GAU that managed the weapons system. The code letter denoted the purpose or structure. The following three-digit number group describes properties such as caliber, size and weight in ascending order. An identical number or a range of numbers was assigned for devices belonging to different usage groups. The suffix can denote

  • Modernizations - suffix M
  • constructive features, e.g. B. A for cast steel

Example: 56-А-231 is the 7.62 mm Simonov carbine . It stands

  • 56 for Division 56 - Infantry Weapons
  • A for automatic and self-loading firearms
  • 231 for belonging to the system 7.62 mm carabiner Simonow, tools, accessories, ammunition etc. developed for the 7.62 mm carabiner Simonow received this number.

The corresponding cartridge received the index 57-N-231 (57-Н-231). It stands

  • 57 for Division 57 - Infantry Ammunition
  • N for cartridge in standard design (combat kit)
  • 231 for belonging to the Simonow 7.62 mm carbine system

GRAY index (from 1960)

The designations have the form <number> <letter> <number> with the optional suffix <letter> <number> . The first group of numbers designates the GRAU department that managed the weapons system. The code letter denoted the purpose or structure. The following group of numbers was assigned in ascending order within the purpose. The suffix M denotes a modernization, further modernizations are indicated by appended numbers in ascending order.

Example: 2P1 is the launch complex of the 2K1 Mars tactical missile complex . It stands

  • 2 for Division 2 - Artillery Weapons and Missile Systems of the Land Forces
  • P for the purpose of missile launchers
  • 1 for the serial number (the missile complex was the first tactical missile complex developed in the Soviet Union)

The launch pad of the weapon system received the index 2P2, the transport and loading vehicle received the index 2P3 and the weapon system as a whole received the index 2K1.

Equipment that belonged together could no longer be recognized in this system. The Schmel anti-tank missile complex received the index 2K15, the launch vehicle the index 2P25 and the associated missile the index 3M6. Since at the end of the 1950s / beginning of the 1960s components of a weapon system were commissioned and developed separately from one another, the order of the second group of numbers for the components can be different. The Falanga anti-tank missile complex received the index 2K8, the launch vehicle the index 2P32 and the associated missile the index 3M11.

Index of Administration Arms of Air Defense

The structure corresponds to the GRAU index (from 1960), the first digit is always a 5 .

Missile Weapons and Artillery Administration Index of the Naval Navy

The designations always have the form <number> <letter> <number> . The first two departments, where the first part consists of a combination of letter and number, are an exception. The first group of the index also identifies the department here, but the meaning differs from the GRAU index:

  • A3 - artillery ammunition
  • A4 - artillery propellant charges
  • 3 - guided missile weapon systems
  • 4 - guided missile weapon systems

The code letter denoted the purpose or structure. The following group of numbers denotes properties such as caliber, size and weight in ascending order. If possible, devices belonging to different usage groups were assigned an identical number or the devices were assigned to a number block. The suffix M denotes modernizations, further modernizations are identified by appended numbers in ascending order.

Example: the submarine-based ballistic missile R-29 received the index 4К-75. It stands

  • 4 for Division 4 - guided missile weapon systems
  • K for guided weapon
  • 75 for construction work.

The associated engine has the designation 4D-75 (4Д-75) in the first stage, the designation 4D-76 (4Д-76) in the second stage.

Index of Administration Arms of the Air Force

Until the mid-1950s, the Air Force Arms Administration used a system that corresponded to the GAU index. However, the first group of numbers consisted of only one instead of two digits. However, the meaning of the digits differed from the GAU index, so dropped ammunition was classified in divisions 7 and 8. The index was changed from the mid-1950s. The designations always have the form <number> <letter> <number> . The first number is always a 9. For weapon systems the letter A is assigned, components of the weapon system are given consecutive letters. The last group of numbers is the same for the weapon system and its components.

Other designation systems

There are several different names for Soviet and Russian weapon systems. In addition to the manufacturer's designation, which is often assigned to a flying device, an industrial name and often a service designation are assigned for use in non-secret correspondence. Older weapon systems have a factory index under which the weapon system was listed before a GAU or GRAU index was added. There are other, different designation systems for armored vehicles and motor vehicles.

Example:

  • The S-25 air defense complex anti-aircraft missile is known as
    • W-300 (service name)
    • "Product 205" ( isdelije 205 , industrial name)
    • 5W7 (GRAY index)
    • Lavochkin La-205 (manufacturer name).
