The Tor-M2 doubles the number of targets that can be engaged simultaneously by a single combat vehicle to four. The Armenian Armed Forces have received the latest TOR-M2KM surface-to-air defense missile systems, according to a statement published on December 21, 2019, to the official website of the Armenian Ministry of Defence. The Tor-M2 missile system can be mounted on wheeled or tracked chassis. The TOR-M2 / M2E is designed to attack aircraft, helicopters, aerodynamic UAVs, guided missiles and other components of high precision weapons flying at medium, low and extremely low altitudes in adverse air and jamming environment. The Tor-M2E also offers the option of a wheeled chassis, as well as a new digital computer system and all weather optical tracking system. The latest variant of TOR-M2 features improved fire control radar coverage, and four guidance channels, allowing up to four missiles to be guided at any one time. The TOR-M2 was presented for the first time to the public during the Moscow Air Show, MAKS in 2007. The TOR-M2/M2E is designed by the Russian Defense Company Almaz-Antey. Two-way tolling is also planned for the tunnels leading to and from Logan Airport, with a similar 50-percent reduction for each passage, according to 2015 documents.The Tor-M2 is an upgraded version of the Tor-M1 short-range air defense missile system. Per a 2015 document, Tobin Bridge tolls account for $32.9 million of $375 annual gross revenue generated by the Massachusetts toll system. Net toll revenue is projected to rise slightly, according to the department.Īccording to the department, E-ZPass transponders, which are provided free of charge, were used by 85 percent of Tobin Bridge drivers as of November 2015. MassDOT has promoted the system as “safer, quicker, and more convenient” for drivers, as well as cheaper for the state to operate. All-electronic tolling is scheduled to go live all along the Massachusetts Turnpike in October.įor drivers without EZ-Pass, a 50-cent surcharge is added per trip, as has been the case on the Tobin Bridge and will soon go into effect on the Pike. Goddard said Monday that tolling infrastructure above northbound lanes on the Tobin Bridge was installed “several days ago,” but that tolling will not go “live” until all-electronic tolling goes live statewide. In 2014, MassDOT instituted all-electronic tolling on the now 66-year-old bridge, in which an overhead collection system mounted above the road either reads drivers’ E-ZPass transponders or license plates, and charges them accordingly.
