Abstract
As a result of the maintenance of armored artillery armament and equipment in the area of the antiterrorist operation, it was established that the maintenance tasks were solved being limited in forces and means. Personnel conducted the minimum amount of operations, technical maintenance 1 and 2 (TO-1 and TO-2) were not performed in full, level of personnel training is low. In addition, it is noted that the existing maintenance system requires significant improvement. Thus, the imperfect existing maintenance system, failure to meet a certain amount of maintenance work and poor knowledge of operation regulations for the armored armament material negatively affected, and in some cases, were the main cause of engine failure. Confirmation to this is the data taken from general analysis of the technical state of samples of armored vehicles and equipment during the practical task accomplishment in the area of antiterrorist operation. Therefore, the reasons for the failure of T-64BV (T-64BM) tanks in 34% of cases were malfunction of the air supply system. In order to prevent the causes of tank engine failure, increase their reliability, it is necessary to outline the prospects of the development of air cleaner stands and the direction of increasing the efficiency of technical maintenance of the air supply system of tank engines. For advanced air cleaner stands, it is advisable to use a modular structure, based on existing stands for use both in stationary and field conditions, using modern industrial materials. The modular structure of a perspective rinse air cleaner should have the following unified components, namely: an electric power supply, a heater, a pump and a bath with a lid. The main directions of increasing the efficiency of operation of engine power supply maintenance by air tanks include the concentration of the research organizations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the military-technical direction for conducting systematic research with the aim of improving technical maintenance of the air supply system of tank engines using modern air cleaner stands, scientific-technical support for the purpose of scientific substantiation of ways to improve the system of maintenance of engine air supply system.
