Vepr Advanced Modular Defense and Combat System (AMDCS)-
http://img21.photobucket.com/albums/v63/Chlevenkov/Scorpion-_Spetsnaz_system.jpg
The Vepr system is an ARSB-designed modular combat system to outfit the soldier of the future with an advanced weapons platform capable of traversing all terrain, locating an enemy target, moving to that target and engaging that target swiftly, powerfully, and silently, and be able to defend its wearer in all conditions.
The entire system is modular meaning certain parts can be removed or replaced depending on the mission, with ease and efficiency.
Helmet- The helmet is a grade III ballistics helmet (Grade III in the ARSB means it is of optimal protection [high-grade ballistics prevention], lighter weight, and covers the same amount of the head as the Grade I helmet) joined with the Joint Infantry Information Relay and Surveillance System (JIIRSS, developed by Exonerate). The JIIRSS is an advanced visor-based system that relays the following information to the particular soldier, his squad, his military group, and his commanders: satellite/command center uplink (for quick battlefield surveillance), nightvision (without bulky headgear but uses a nightvision receiver mounted on right shoulder or helmet), heat detection (also uses a sensor on the right shoulder or helmet), image resolution enhancement, millimetric wave radar (using a small system on the right shoulder or helmet that can detect metal at medium ranges and in low-light, poor visibility conditions), weapons camera view, and the communications link, vital to team and unit survival. This system can also receive and display a GPS map on the visor.
Another feature of this helmet, it can also be self-sealed with its own air filtration system. All commands to cycle/toggle information displays for this visor system is located on a keypad on the arm.
Camoflauge/BDU's
The Vepr system is compatible with all forms of camoflauge and BDU's and should easily fit over all (including modified winter parkas). Pictured on the SpetsNaz soldier wearing the Vepr system is our 3-color desert camoflauge. The colors of the system's coating, helmet, visor, and other components can easily be changed using permanent coloring or by covering it with camoflauge cloth or covering.
Load Bearing System
The load bearing system is integrated with the JWDCS and allows for the ability to carry numerous pieces of equipment. Connected with the load-bearing system is the Felt Recoil Reduction System (FRRS) which uses a series of pads and gel inserts to actually reduce felt recoil, improving soldier's morale and increasing their battle efficiency by reducing fatigue on the soldier.
Armor-
All armor is capable of stopping most pistol and rifle rounds using extensive fiber structures (kevlar, super-dense plastic, ceramic inserts. This also improves the wearer's ability to survive explosions and close-proximity grenade blasts. Armor covers the shoulders, back (limited), chest, abdomen, groin, upper arms, and parts of the leg (shin, knee-caps, and most of the thigh). The armor system was designed to provide optimal protection at a low weight. The entire (chest, shoulder, armor, leg) weight of the armor system is 31 pounds and is distributed evenly across all surfaces, creating no uncomfortable pressure points. Although the Vepr system was designed to give the soldier wearing the system the ability to engage and destroy enemy targets before they have a chance to notice or engage the Vepr system-wearing soldier, the Vepr system can also withstand most rifle rounds up to 7.62 mm(most 7.62mm rounds, except certain types of bullets) and drastically decreasing the impact force of most other rounds by distributing the force and by slowing down the round to where it causes minimal damage. The ceramic inserts can be removed, bringing the weight down to about 14 pounds, which increases range and energy of the soldier while still providing ballistics protection of most if not all pistol rounds and fairly good stopping power on some rifle rounds. No matter what armor-mode is chosen (with or without the ceramic inserts), the system can stop most shrapnel from getting past the armor (including close-proximity grenades, artillery, and larger explosives).
Otherwise, this system is completely compatible with most other types of armors.
Joint Weight Distribution Carrying System (JWDCS)-
This system utilizes a light-weight aluminum frame that is specifically molded to provide maximum comfort for a soldier. This pack distributes the weight evenly among the shoulders, waste, and hips, meaning the soldier can carry more equipment and tire less easily. The pack also uses gel inserts and other comfort materials to provide cushioning and prevent injury in any instance.
Weapon-
The [ARSB] soldier with the Vepr system uses an RSR-51XA Assault rifle (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=153004&highlight=)specially modified for the Vepr system. The RSR-51XA Assault rifle (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=153004&highlight=)is the base version of the RSR-51 plus a few extras such as tactical gear (flashlights, red-dot sight, etc.) and a camera system that sends signals to the helmet which then displays the picture on the visor, meaning this soldier can get behind a safe, sturdy object and stick the rifle over the object and line up the crosshairs and fire, without ever looking down the barrel of the weapon. The toggle switch to activate the camera system is located on a keypad on the arm as well as a quick-cycle button on the weapon itself. When being sold to a purchaser that does not want the RSR-51XA Assault rifle (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=153004&highlight=), only the M-280 weapon camera and its mount, as well as the integration wiring and wireless system is sent with the Vepr system.
Systems- The Vepr system is outfitted with a computer system that matches to the contours of the wearer's body. The computer operates a Local Area Network with the wearer's team for instant communication and transferring of data. The system can also send information to another position by use of satellites or other communications systems (such as a communications vehicle or tower). The computer also feeds real-time surveillance from drones or delayed surveillance from satellites to the wearer's helmet and if another soldier's computer is damaged, another soldier's computer can relay the surveillance to that soldier's helmet as long as the primary receiver system is intact or the auxilary system is intact (a small, close-range antennae located on the helmet). The computer also relays all information from sensors and devices to the soldier's helmet and/or to other soldiers. The Integrated Joint Information Distribution Computer system allows for the easy toggle between relevant screens (GPS map, real-time surveillance, infrared, firearm-camera mode, etc.). All information sent and received is encrypted. Another system is the Soldier Health Monitoring and Transmission System, which monitors the soldier's vitals (including blood pressure, pulse, etc.) and sends those stats back to a commander or to a medic wearing the Vepr system.
For ARSB soldiers, it also contains an uplink into the Soviet Bloc Worldwide Offensive/Defensive Operations Net, meaning a single infantryman can coordinate strikes using air, land, and sea-based assets, making the ARSB infantry a very lethal force. The VEPR system maintains an area on the suit for an uplink system to be placed, which can uplink any nation's soldier into their own military net.
Audio/Communication Systems
For the transmission of audio signals via radio transmissions, the transmission is decrypted by a small computer in the helmet and turned into minute vibrations which are then used to stimulate the wearer's cochlea, allowing the wearer to hear every transmission in crisp, clear sound with no background noise. The sound is also not transferred to the outside world. A mic system can be placed in the oxygen system, on the neck, or on a small movable 'boom' to hold in front of the mouth... When speaking into a mic may jeopardize your mission, simply type messages using the small keypad on your arm. The keypad is encased in a gel that creates no noise so no fear of anyone hearing the 'clicking' of a keyboard. This message is then sent to everyone's visors and displays on their communications screen.
Battery-
The Vepr system runs on a newly developed battery which can run on standard operating power (SOP; This 'mode' is when only the receiver systems/visor systems are in constant use and the weapons, camera, and other systems are in moderate to light use) for up to 84 hours. At Low Operating Power (LOP), the system can run for nearly 96 hours (Using only visor and receiver systems). At Combat Operating Power (When all modes are in heavy use), the system can last for about 72 hours, depending on conditions. Each weapon's camera systems are outfitted with a small auxilary battery to provide a 2-hour emergency run time as are the visor and receiver (antennae, decoding, etc.) systems. The nice thing about this battery, the M-445, is that it's modular, with the ability to accept up to 8 more 3-hour 'tack-on power' batteries, increasing each system's hour limits 24 hours and the battery resides in a 'cradle' that allows for easy removal and replacing. Batteries can be added or removed, depending on mission. Let's say you want the Vepr wearer to be on the frontlines, then you'll want to attach all eight extra batteries (the M-330) to provide maximum time for the wearer to go before having to replace or recharge the batteries, but if you want that Vepr wearer to go on a short-range recon patrol, no extra batteries are needed. Another thing about the M-445 batteries and the M-330's, are that they are rechargeable and can be easily recharged using any means available such as jumper cables, other batteries, a normal 60hz plug in (as well as adaptors for all other types of electrical frequencies) that can accept 120, 240, 208, and most other voltages and convert it into the power used by the batteries. The batteries can also be recharged using DC power or any means available. The main battery unit, the M-445, can be recharged in 6 hours and each M-330 (The add-on batteries) can be recharged in about 2-3 hours. The battery system is located under the load-bearing back-pack, and conforms to the wearer. The batteries will operate from temperatures ranging from -40 degrees F to +130 degrees F and at altitudes up to 16000 feet.
