Student project principal fifth-generation fighter

one based on the MiG OKB 

information of 08.08.2006 of the year:

"Airplane" MiG-XX "is made by normal aerodynamic scheme with high-trapezoidal in plan with well-developed wings, the nose, the influx of integral mating smoothly with the fuselage to be satisfied in view of the conservation area, with the generator of the vortices around the leading edge of the influx and tail, including widely spaced, angled outward fins with rudders and all-moving stabilizer. 
The design of the fighter meets the criteria of technology "stealth".Low radar visibility provided by the airframe "stealth" forms, surfaces which are oriented in several severely restricted areas, as well as through the use of radar absorbing materials and coatings, as well as special low-power devices, generating low-temperature plasma.The effective minimum reflective surface (EPR) in the course of the plane (in front view) 0.1 m - 0.08 sq.m.  
In the airframe should be widely used in polymer composite materials (CM), including thermoplastic (12% - 15%) and thermosetting (10%), carbon composites, including the newly developed laminated "sandwich" structure (0,6-0, 8 mm) or "GLARE" consisting of two outer layers of aluminum (sheet 0.3 - 0.5 mm) and an intermediate filling of ugletkani, titanium (sheet 1.5 - 7.0 mm) or glass fiber.
The total number of airframe components should be reduced by 20% - 40% and the number of fasteners such as screws, rivets at 50% and existing structures. 
Wing - coffered three-longeron composite.In order to increase survivability of the rails must be made of metal.Across the wing span is deflected toe.Wing addition to the wind, has a geometric twist - 2 degrees.Flaps occupy more than half the span.Sweep on the leading edge of - 42 degrees.The rear edge of the wing for the most part has a reverse sweep - 17 degrees (rear section wingtips has a reverse sweep - 42 degrees to ensure - reduced radar visibility and a smoother flow separation).Virtually all of its area is occupied by the ailerons and flaperon.Pair rotating and stationary surfaces is "chopped" shape, with reduced radar signature.
The lower surface of the fuselage is made at small angles - almost flat.There is a central adaptive multi dor weapon bay with the ability to accommodate existing and future ammunition with large dimensions, including a "semi-flush" position.
Double Cab (pilot - and battle operator protection), or (Pilot - DTB) or (student - instructor), has a flashlight with besperepletny radio scattering sputtering.The cabin is equipped with modified ejection seat CIG - XX (chair of variable geometry) allows the crew to better tolerate overloads and system BAPS - XX - allows to monitor the status of the crew in the case of short-term loss of consciousness pilot run out of dangerous flight conditions, and at a complete loss of control of both members crew - to ensure a return to the base plane with the implementation of automatic approach.Lantern is made of transparent polycarbonate.Form glazing eliminates visual distortion, since it has the minimum number of surfaces with double curvature.The instrument panel has a visor to cover up the pilot and the sight of the oncoming air flow in the damaged canopy at speeds up to 1100 km / h.
Vertical tail - two keel has a thin profile (2% in the root); fins angled outward at an angle of 28 degrees and are equipped with rudders occupying the entire rear edge of the keel of the drive, which is located in a compartment of the fuselage beneath the keel.Communication with the drive performed using the "flexible" - torsion shaft and propshaft.They sweep on the leading edge - a line (42 degrees), on the back - back (-42gradusa).
Developed vertical stabilizers, including the screen plays the role of engine exhaust, which in turn reduces the heat signature. 
Horizontal tail - whole swivel, sweep angles correspond to angles of wing sweep.Electro-hydraulic drive for CSSC linked to a common node to drive the rudder.
Chassis - tricycle, with a nose wheel, provides a landing at vertical speeds of up to 3 m / sec.The main landing - single-wheel.The front has a two-wheeled cart.The main struts with podtyagom are removed in a niche on the side of the fuselage, and nose bearing is removed from the rack and turn under pull the fuselage back.Sash bay chassis have a sawtooth edge, helping to reduce radar visibility.
The power plant includes two turbofan RD-XX of the fifth generation - further development of engines of the RD-33.Turbofan first series may have a maximum static thrust of 10,000 kg (before the turbine T 1800 - 1900 degrees Kelvin), in a series of expected mass increase of up to 15 000-16 000 kg (before the turbine T 2200 - 2250) "to" increased to 30 - 40.The engines are made to the reduced number of compressor stages (HPC) from 9 to 6, a fan (CPV) from 4 to 2, with a decrease in size, weight and the total number of parts.Are electronically controlled by multiple redundant with full responsibility.
Lower intakes of engines - diamond-shaped cross section, unregulated, with the S-shaped horizontal channels for the screening of compressors and engines crawl gruzootseke side.To ensure the reduction of radar visibility, slit to drain the boundary layer between the fuselage and the air intake can be closed by moving a controlled sash.Management of leaf speed and the corresponding boundary layer thickness to it, not lose DGG engines.The possibility of using this valve is necessary to evaluate the results of preliminary studies.
Flat nozzles are fixed and movable side walls of the upper and lower panels, designed to regulate cross-sectional area of ​​nozzle and alternating thrust vector deflection in pitch at an angle of plus 30 to minus 20 degrees, which will use OVT, including for roll control . 
Through the use of APUs GTDE - XXX will significantly increase the combat readiness of the aircraft.In addition, provide an opportunity to run the engine at an altitude of 10 km for M = 1.

Common system. 
Digital multimodular EDSU company «RUSSAN Avioniks" with full responsibility that has fiber-optic communications and back-up power.Control Knobs - Side.Knobs and ores are located on the chair CIG-XX in which, for ease of management are anthropomorphic arms.Actuators control surfaces firm «GIDROMASH»: flaperon, ailerons - electric stabilizer, rudders - Electro. 

Target hardware. 
The structure of an integrated set of avionics, developed under the guidance of firm «RUSSAN avionics," includes the central complex system of communication, navigation and identification and combat electronic complex, comprising: 
EW systems, airborne radar, "RP-XXX" with high resolution.There are two ANNs with laser gyroscopes.
Classification purposes is made by the seven parameters of the data, including radar signature, as well as by counting the number of blades of the first stage compressor with radar. 
Radar, "RP-XX" is tri-modal active phased array antenna oval width of about 1.3 m, each module consists of approximately 700 solid-state transceiver modules that use machinery monolithic integrated circuits, microwave.In order to reduce the visibility provided passive radar modes, which include mechanical withdrawal radar modules panel down.Provided low probability of intercept signals during active radar modes.
Maximum range of detection of large air targets - 200-250 km, the purpose of Class 'cruise missile' - 170 km; ground moving targets can be detected at a distance of 90 km.Field of view in azimuth and elevation angle + / -60 degrees in the air, it increases melee in azimuth to 180 and decreases in elevation and -30 degrees for the mechanical withdrawal extreme side panels, and the pilot can change the viewing angle vertically within 10-60 degrees.There is a mode of mapping and map (overlay) image with an electronic map and 3D mapping with the introduction of 3D images of enemy air defense zones and natural elevations. 
Three antenna module in the melee, and at medium ranges (up to goals such as fighter) can operate independently of each other as three separate radar "intelligent" mode.Overall management of this mode is done on a kvorumirovaniya - if the goal is only one perspective or approach a variety of purposes is located in the front corners of it (they) is considered the most dangerous target - a radar station three elements work as a radar.If more than one purpose and perspectives approach aims to the right side, left side and in front, in this case, each module operates independently of each other.This will allow a simultaneous firing of three goals in a range of azimuthal angles of 270 degrees.In this electronic control pattern eliminates dead zones and decrease the detection range and capture this range of angles.In the event that targets the field of view at a distance of less than 30 km station performs its automatic acquisition and tracking.Number of simultaneously tracked targets more than 10.
The composition of sighting system is a quantum-optical locating station (Coles XX) is designed for parallel solution of problems with the radar melee and distance to the ground (surface) targets, working in conjunction with helmet-mounted sight buttons device (DDP) in which (out of combat) can also displayed any available information on the screen or displays, including video cameras, and the screen loses its transparency DDP. 
Cockpit and the operator is equipped with multi-color wide-angle HUD with 20x30 degrees, which displays flight, navigation and sighting information, and information from the unified system of identification, communication, and REP.In the center of the dashboard is the main multi-color LCD display (MFD) with a screen size 250h300 mm, which displays different information synthesized.In the combat mode (target designation), an information field of the screen and the HUD field is divided by vertical lines into three parts.On either side of it, as well as the bottom are three color multifunctional liquid crystal display with screen sizes 180h180 mm (in a typical configuration on the left display shows detailed information on enemy aircraft and air defenses, in law - decided by tactical task of attack at the bottom are given information about the state of airborne weapons).At the top of the dashboard are two liquid crystal display (100x100 mm), which are displayed on the navigation and communication information.Conventional electromechanical devices in the cockpit are missing.
On the throttle and side-ax handles control of the aircraft are up to 20 buttons and knyupeley control with 40 functions, which provides systems management without taking your hands from the levers of control of the aircraft. 
For the convenience of flying and post-flight visual inspection of the state of the pilots and flight of the aircraft in different compartments are 30 small-sized digital camcorders.Two controlled camera monitoring the back hemisphere with on IFI operator and the pilot (with the effect of 20X zoom).One camera performs the function of the PCF.Eight cameras at different points in the cabin.Others in the compartments of armament, CSA, engines and other aircraft compartments.
All video information is recorded in real time from the moment of takeoff and before landing on a solid-state protected against overloads and other external influences carrier which is part of the drive recorder system KARAT-XX. 
"MiG-XX" will be equipped with the automated terminal information sharing with the closed loop.It can be equipped with noise-data exchange system provides communication with the air, space and ground (surface) MP at a distance, including for the unmanned operation of the aircraft (for special tasks). 

Service. 
Built-gun GSHA-XXX (a long-gun version GSHA-31 30 mm) gun with 150 - 200 shells installed on the right wing root.In the rest position closes the special porthole doors.
In weapon bay can host up to eight missiles RVV-AE (R-77 class "air - air" medium-range missiles with active radar homing or four RVV-AE (R-77) and a BAC-500. The alternative weapons to conduct air combat - four thermal SD P-73 and four RVV-AE (R-77). 
On four underwing hardpoints with short pylons can be placed two drop tanks (for root nodes) and two X-31 or two KAB-500.When the ferry flights for under-wing sites is supposed to suspend the four PTB.The load on the external hardpoints can be up to 3,000 kg.
Initially, the shock weapons aircraft will likely be limited.The total ammunition for the interior nodes of the suspension will be two promising KAB, two SD RVV-AE (R-77) and two P-73.
In future multi-plane 'MiG-XX "to be equipped with a number of advanced systems of shock weapons under development or research.

PAK-FA 1.12

Promising aviation complex tactical aviation.

It is known that a few years ago the company was developing a fighter 1.12.What kind of car is unknown, but knowing the tradition of Mikoyan design bureau described in the title take-off weight (usually the "maximum") can be linked to the number "12" with an empty weight, then the maximum takeoff weight will be ~ 24 tons.

For the option of a "short take-off - a vertical landing" is likely to apply the scheme proposed for the Yak Yak OKB LFS, lifting - with boosters like the Yak-141 is powered from the nozzle and their compressors Remote afterburner.

KB MiG serious interest in tailless back in the eighties, both in connection with the project and 70.1 on the electromagnetic catapult.

Engine.

 Klimov plant makes engines for the new fighter family, "MIG"

In short, a Russian Aircraft Corporation (RAC) "MIG" lightweight multi-export-oriented fighter will be in the power plant, two new aero-engine, to create a factory Klimov.

 "They are based on the further development of the RD-33 the last modifications.In its design plan to make significant design changes that will give new consumer product quality, "- said to" Interfax-AVN, "general manager of the Moscow Machine-Building Enterprise (MSE) Chernyshev, Alexander Novikov.

This engine will have a new, appropriate level of the next generation of turbine and combustion chamber.The fan and compressor are basic, but modified, Novikov said.

 Asked about the maximum takeoff thrust of the engine afterburner, general director of the IMF said that it will be about 10.5 tons.

 "Late last year, the program participants to develop a new fighter signed the relevant documents with the parent company (RAC" MiG "-" IF-AVN "), the organization works and how they finance with equity participation of project members" - a spokesman said.

 He noted that a fighter jet program involves MMP Chernyshev in financing for aircraft engines.

... The third area in which the Corporation "MiG" is working, is to create a new generation of fighter aircraft.

He has to a large extent not only to keep the market for the corporation, which has won today the MiG-29, but significantly expand it.
- This initiative development, "Yakovlev Design Bureau. Mikoyan"?
- No.At first she was not proactive.But then, as the reduction in funding this project from the state budget, the Corporation "MiG" has taken it upon themselves to ensure continuity in the development of its product line and thereby maintain its market position.
- At what stage is this project?
- In preliminary design stage.
- A technology like this will look like?Air Force will be involved?At AHK "Dry" seems to be clear - there is installed a program, it is clear how the funding.And how are you?
- It is very important to be accurate and correct in the wording.Our project is not an alternative to that development, which is occupied by another developer .We never tried to challenge the Air Force position on this issue.Our state has a huge continental dimensions, and to provide cover for its air space.To date, this problem is solved mainly MiG-31 and Su-27 with a takeoff weight of 30-40 tons.

But there are combat missions, including to the Russian Air Force, which in financial terms, the limited defense budget is more profitable to solve other aircraft.More "budget" having that very important, and better prospects in the market.And if we do not want to lose that market, and today, I repeat, 52 countries have a fighter brand "MiG", and 30 states - the MiG-29, then we must think about the future, it being understood, in what direction the market of military aviation will be develop.We see that the European "Eurofighter" on weights and dimensions, combat characteristics very close to the MiG-29.However, like the American F-16s, F-18.Market analysis of combat fighters shows that 80-85% of its volume occupied by fighters of the MiG-29 class, that is those machines, take-off weight not exceeding 20 tonnes.We are well aware of how to develop the U.S. program.In particular, the program promising fighter ATF (later transformed into F-22 program), laid down in the late 70s - early 80s.the last century, it was supposed to produce more than 1,000 aircraft for the Air Force United States.And no one knew at the beginning of the 90s.about JSF.But as soon as the changed geopolitical realities and, therefore, the approach to weapons systems, criteria, and began to fall sharply alleged order for this aircraft.It is now planned to release only about 230 heavy fighters F-22.At the same time dramatically evolving program JSF (F-35 now).This class aircraft MiG-29, ie, is a light multi-role fighters.It is assumed that 3,000 aircraft will buy the F-35 Air Force, Navy and USMC and 3000 - foreign countries.On the tactical aviation market will begin replacement of vehicles of other states.We must be prepared for this.It means to be able to counter the F-35 competitive Russian aircraft in its class.

- Now your prospective fighter is in the stage of conceptual design.How can look the next steps and timing of exit to the prototype?
- We plan to prepare the car to the time when the market of the MiG-29 versions and upgrades of its profound decreases.We are talking about 2012-2015, . when we plan to exit the aircraft on the market.
- The machine - a great attraction of subcontractors.Quite natural question: what engine it will be equipped with?AL-41 fighter aircraft designed for long-term AHK "dry".What is your engine?
- RAC "MiG" - this is the normal way structured company, another of his kind in the aviation industry in Russia yet.All of this is actively seeking, but still there are other structures - in which a rigid system of control there.Between enterprises there is dominated by contractual relationships that are characterized by time-cost, low rates of coordination, etc. There also is increasing the price of products and so on.Corporation "MiG" is built today, as all the normal large industrial enterprises, including the "Lockheed", "Boeing", "Dassault", etc. There are a developer - "Yakovlev Design Bureau. Mikoyan" and serial production plants aviation .As subsidiaries and affiliated companies within a corporation there are large enterprises, including the engine-building, "Zavod im. Klimov" - designer of engines for fighter brand "MiG" and helicopters, "Zavod im. Chernyshev" - a well-equipped serial Engine Plant, "Red October "- the largest aggregate company.

Thus, neither in terms of management organization, either in terms of organization development and production of long-term fundamental problems in the engine to "MiG" does not exist.

- By reysersky supersonic laid?
- If there are not two or three qualities in a fifth-generation aircraft such as stealth, advanced features for cruising speed, agility and ability to basing, this plane of generation 4 +, 4 +.

- The developer of the engine will perform "Zavod im. Klimov"?And whether it's brand new engine?Again, it will look like the stages of its creation?
- We are working with, "Zavod im. Klimov."He is the developer of all of our engines.In terms of development of this bureau is now one of the most advanced in Russia.
In fact, "Zavod im. Klimov," is a leader in the Russian aviation industry by creating the most basic elements of the engine the next generation.
- That is the engine for long-term development of the fighter will be "Zavod im. Klimov."A radar AFAR will do "Fazotron-NIIR" As I understand it?
- I would say so.We are open for cooperation.Of course, the RAC "MiG" is now working on a parity basis with all subcontractors to build the next generation models of equipment.But none to date has not yet created another effective mechanism for moving forward, as competition.It is on this basis has been made all the successes of the Soviet aircraft industry.Even in hard times of the Great Patriotic War was not indiscriminate association of aviation companies in any one Aircraft Corporation.There were two fighter firm that worked on the front, "Yakovlev" and "Lavochkin," but had the wisdom to preserve and two others - "MiG" and "Dry", which do not bear the burden of the war effort, but after the war provided a qualitative spurt of domestic military aircraft.

Competitive environment, so that should always exist.As for the aircraft itself, as well as on their main elements: engine, radar and weapons.In the current market conditions always appreciate someone who has chosen a right way and was successful.
- Glider you make the cabin too, solve the problem of invisibility: But the main thing on the new fighter - the engine and radar.How did this issue you will address?The most "delicate" moment - the engine.At what stage of this development?Here we need billions.And with what resources?Export does not give such proceeds.Or possible interim solution, with the transfer engine?
- Investments, of course, have to look for, both internal and external.This problem exists in all of Russian producers of military hardware.Corporation "MiG" is on the rise today.We have good sales prospects.And besides, RAC "MiG" has a number of advantages.The first - our market is growing.We feel that the corporation is on the right path to the chosen strategy.Second - RSK "MiG" today is the normal way is structured.All other things being equal opportunities for corporate structure gives us many advantages.Costs of producing our work, for example, 30% lower than similar operations in other Russian designers and manufacturers.And third, our advantage is that large Acquisitions, production value of more than half the price of an airplane, are part of our corporation.And most importantly - "Yakovlev Design Bureau. Mikoyan" properly positioned his ambitious project, which, while not an alternative, focused on the most mass market, having also a very good indicator of the criterion of "efficiency - the cost."

- It will be single-or twin-engine plane?
- twin.
- How will the plane look at the weights?
- Machine class of the MiG-29.
- The suspension of arms will vnutrifyuzelyazhnoy?
- Stealth must be implemented.
- Do you plan to go on a layout of the airframe, so it was like in JSF?It will be a complete solution?
- Stealth must be implemented comprehensively."Cosmetics" can not fix anything fundamentally, it is only one element.We have a comprehensive approach to addressing the invisibility.
- And about the appearance of long-term aircraft RSK "MiG" say anything is possible?
- This question premature.While the plane was not brought to the flight tests, much of the data on it are closed.
- And on the stage itself the "picture" will cease to be secret?
- It will depend on the pace of implementation and promotion of the product on the market.Everything should be designed.The Americans face their aircraft usually begin to publish on the assembly stage.Up to this point they no appearance of the B-2 or F-22 JSF is not published either.At the same time in the Cold War, when a wild arms race, the Americans did not hesitate to publish the appearance of their aircraft, even at earlier stages of the aircraft.In particular, F-16 made its first flight in 1974 and his first picture in the aviation magazines began to appear in 1970-1971.In respect of our aircraft all depends on the current phase of the marketing program.

Perspective plane RAC "MiG" is an international project?
- Today is a Russian project.
- And what a project 1.44?This branch of the deadlock on today?Or here involved some political considerations?
- Today the RAC "MiG" is being implemented several major contracts.All current assets are directed, of course, to carry them out.Work on the 1.44 are underway with a view to the possible use of this machine as a flying laboratory, but to the extent that as far as we can finance.
