M-1 "Wave"

The complex includes:

• control system;
• Guided launcher with single-tier and two-tier drum or conveyor missile storage systems;
• anti-aircraft guided missile;
• a set of onshore facilities.

Guidance - radio command , radar At " Yatagan ".

Launcher - stabilized, on two, suspended under the beams, missiles, with a deck store . ZIF-101 - with drum shops, 2 × 8 missiles; ZIF-102 - with a conveyor store, 32 missiles.

The development of the first Soviet universal missile system M-1 for ships of projects 61 , 63 began according to the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR No. 1149-592 of August 17, 1956. However, by decision No. 1190-610 of 08.25.1956, it was decided to put the M-1 on the ships of projects 58 , 62 . For many elements, the M-1 universal naval system was unified with the S-125 anti-aircraft missile system for the ground forces. So, in both complexes the same missiles were used (B-600, -601 and so on).

The main designer of the M-1 was Ignatiev I.A. ( All-Russian Research Institute "Altair" - SME), the chief designer of the rocket - Grushin, Peter Dmitrievich ( MKB "Fakel" - MAP). The M-1 missile system with the B-600 was adopted by the Navy by Decree of the Council of Ministers No. 889-382 of August 24, 1962. Later, the M-1 complex was given the name "Wave", and the V-600 rocket - the 4K90 index.

By Decree of the Council of Ministers No. 561-233 of June 21, 1961, work on the B-601 missile, intended for the S-125 air defense missile system, was started to hit targets that fly at altitudes of more than 10 thousand meters. In 1964, after a series of tests, the V-601 rocket (ind. 4K91) was adopted by the S-125. In the same year, they decided to equip the M-1 complex with a B-601 rocket. During 1967, the first 7 ships received the B-601 missile.

During the modernization of the ship's anti-aircraft complex, the improvements concerned the anti-aircraft missiles themselves and the control equipment. The complex with V-601 missiles was given the name “Volna-M”, with the V-601M - “Volna-N”, with the B-611 - “Volna-11”, with enhanced noise immunity - “Volna-P”. The Volna-P air defense system was adopted in 1976. The noise immunity of Volna-P was increased on the radio control channels of the rocket, and an optoelectronic target tracking channel (9ShZZ) was also introduced. The Wave in the 1980s became known as the anti-aircraft missile system (UZRK), it allowed to conduct rocket fire on surface targets.

Then, when the question arose about protecting ships from low-flying anti-ship missiles, another modernization of the complex (Volna-N) was carried out, in which V-601M missiles were used. The modernized complex ensured the defeat of targets at a height of 3 to 5 m above the wave crest ^[1] .
