autonomous combat module of the Tor-M2KM ADS was installed on the " Sovetsk " Project 22800 Karakurt class which with the first example built had 2 AK-630s (which remain on board), while in subsequent ships the AK-630s were replaced by the Pantsir-M system

Probably not. That thing was designed as a container module to add the Tor system to ships like Project 22160.
I expect this to be a short term fix to add better air defense to existing corvettes until they get upgraded with the Pantsir-SM later when they go for refit.

Number of missiles is still limited, a couple of drones attack and it need to go back to port. Could they bring reload on the ship ? Look quite complicated to make it happen anyway.

It's not a ship made for long mission duration and still have their AK-630 so it's quite better than having no sam defense or just manpads.

Don't know if they can put that module to the Pantsir-M equipped ships ?

As i predicted earlier the new Pantsir. The new missile speed is 1.8 km/sec. the system can detect HIMAR at 27 to 30km.



There is another info release or emphasized again. The new R-74M missile equiped Mi-28NM is not only against drones but cruise missile and fighters. Air defense may change from static to dynamic.


Mi-28NM MTOW is now 13 tons and can be based from 4000m.

The only problem is the Mi-28NM "Night Hunter" is in practice relegated by the Ru Air Force to a day-time attack chopper, thereby making it vulnerable to SHORAD SAMS (Stinger/SAM-7) and negating its tactical advantage of operating under the cover of darkness using its 8-15km anti-tank missiles (Vikhr/Sturm).

Can anybody identify what ship and missiles those are?

That video shows first an Admiral Grigorovich class frigate firing a missile salvo (it has the rotating Fregat radar), and then a couple Buyan-M class corvettes firing missile salvos. Probably Kalibr missile salvos. I think these are old archive videos from earlier in the war though.
