Due to the fact, that military publications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) do not assign a methodology to determine the quantity of water required to meet the needs of a military unit, while doing laundry in field conditions whatever the situation; and taking into account the technical characteristics of modern washing machines installed in Deployable Laundry and Bath Modules (DLBM), the purpose of the article is to develop the required methodology. To achieve this goal, the following methods were applied: the method of analysis of the requirements contained in regulatory documents and technical characteristics of washing machines installed in DLBM and DLM which are integrated into the DLBS; as well as the method of synthesis to provide proposals for the algorithm which is used to determine the main indicators of this methodology. Based on the analysis of normative documents, the conclusion was made that the water consumption, which satisfies the needs of a military unit for wash water to do laundry in field conditions whatever the situation, is not considered. Water consumption is related to two indicators of the average water consumption required to wash 1 kg of dry uniforms and towels, and the actual ability to provide laundry in field conditions during a certain period of military activities. While the theoretical significance of the article lies in the development of the required methodology mentioned above, its practical significance lies in providing recommendations for the application of this methodology during the operational preparation phase as well as the operation itself and under conditions with limited possibility to do laundry. The developed methodology provides the algorithm which can be used to determine the quantity of wash water to satisfy the need of a military unit to do laundry in field conditions. The algorithm considers required water reserves and water consumption. Keywords: consumption, water, stocks, methodology, Deployable Laundry and Bath Modules (DLBM), Deployable Laundry Modules (DLM), personnel, need.

After the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine, the issue of repair and restoration of weapons and military equipment of all types that are in service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine and those that come as material and technical assistance from partner countries has become acute, more than ever in the entire existence of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In particular, there is the issue of repair and restoration of all types of weapons and military equipment by temporary repair and restoration bodies. In this article, an analysis of the composition and order of use of mobile means of maintenance and repair of missile and artillery weapons in the Armed Forces of Ukraine was carried out, and a comparison was made with the composition and order of use of mobile means of maintenance and repair of the US Armed Forces. Also, during the work, attention was paid to the improvement of the existing mobile means of maintenance and repair of weapons of the missile and artillery nomenclature. This issue was investigated by substantiating the prospects for the development of mobile means of maintenance and repair of missile and artillery weapons. The mentioned questions have significant problems and cause curiosity and exploratory research among specialists in the technical direction of logistics support in view of the need to make such qualitative changes to the restoration system that would allow to ensure the maximum coverage by proper repair of all defective samples of weapons and military equipment, including samples of foreign production, i.e. those that are in service with NATO countries. But first of all, it is necessary to develop specific recommendations for a prospective complex of mobile vehicles, which will include not only a qualitative update of repair equipment, but also take into account the principle of unification, interoperability and modularity of the sample under study. Keywords: maintenance, repair, restoration, mobile vehicle, missile and artillery weapons.

Today's realities have led to the fact that in various sources they are actively considering the issue of finding options for improving the system of repair and restoration of weapons and military equipment in the Armed Forces of Ukraine and improving (modernization) of mobile means of maintenance and repair of anti-aircraft weapons. Of course, in most cases, the subject of these works is the consideration of means of maintenance and repair of automotive equipment, somewhat less often of armored weapons and equipment, and, unfortunately, there are almost no works related to mobile means of maintenance and repair of missile and artillery weapons. The previous article was devoted to the analysis of the composition of mobile means of maintenance and repair of missile and artillery weapons in the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the procedure for their use. The issue of improving the existing mobile means of maintenance and repair of weapons of the missile and artillery nomenclature was also considered. The material presented in it created the conditions for justifying in this article the technical requirements for the properties of mobile means of maintenance and repair of missile and artillery weapons. In the opinion of the authors, it is appropriate to substantiate such properties as maintainability, technological equipment and cost-effectiveness of repair samples of missile and artillery weapons. The substantiation of the above technical requirements will create all the prerequisites for the development of recommendations necessary for the development of mobile means of maintenance and repair of modern missile and artillery weapons, the main ones of which may be - recommendations regarding the basic chassis and body of a van (container), regarding the equipment and specialization of the workshop and regarding the functional filling and calculation of the workshop. Keywords: missile and artillery weapons, ground weapon systems, mobile vehicle, repair, restoration.

Purpose. To develop a solution for modernization of heat supply systems (HSS) of infrastructure complexes including, in particular, in military towns (MT), the problem of both efficient and effective heating of which is especially important at present. To develop a mathematical model for finding an effective solution to the problem of modernizing heating and detecting leaks of the heat-conductor. Methodology. Special and general methods are used: mathematical formalization – to build mathematical model of the problem of heat supply of MT and detection of heat-conductor leaks; induction and deduction – for choosing and substantiating the expediency of using equipment for HSS of MT; analysis and synthesis – for the development of a schematic solution HSS of MT. Findings. Decision options regarding the choice of heat-generating equipment for the modernization of HSS of MT are substantiated. A combined system using boilers and solar collectors is proposed. For the combined system, a schematic solution for integrating equipment into a single autonomous HSS of MT and an economical option for automatic system control are developed. For boilers of the combined system, it is suggested to use cheap and affordable fuel – pellets. A mathematical model has been developed for finding an effective system solution for HSS of MT and detecting heat-conductor leaks. Originality. Special requirements for HSS of MT were formulated: autonomy; high level of reliability, survivability; flexibility in ensuring the volume of heat supply during the day, week, season; minimizing the cost of equipment and fuel for it; the possibility of inexpensive repair and renewal. Variants of modernization of HSS in MT have been analyzed and a schematic solution of an integrated HSS of MT with combined use of generating equipment has been developed. Practical value. The developed mathematical model and schematic solution of HSS in MT as well as proposed options for using equipment and fuel for it allow ensuring the proper level of fulfillment of special requirements for HSS in MT.
