The Observer: Trump needs to do away with the unpromising F-35

208
The F-35 fighter has become one of the biggest failures in stories aviation US industry, and the new president will need to put an end to this "unpromising" program, said The National Review columnist, engineer Mike Fredenburg.

The Observer: Trump needs to do away with the unpromising F-35




“In F-35, nothing can be fixed. Serious engineering errors were made at the design stage of the aircraft, and this kind of “flaws” cannot be corrected, ”the author writes.

Fredenburg points to the irrational approach of the designers of the company “Lockheed-Martin” to the task of reducing the weight of the aircraft. According to him, “the developers have facilitated the F-35 by dismantling the necessary weapons and simplifying the flight safety system,” and “eventually, the prospective fighter will have to avoid collision with the enemy and carry out combat missions accompanied by other aircraft.”

In addition, the browser claims, "F-35 structural elements made of a special aluminum alloy simply do not withstand high overloads." Also a serious problem is the "unstable operation of the propulsion system and the constant malfunction in the cooling system."

“It's time to face the truth: due to the fatal mistakes made during the design of the 20 aircraft years ago, the F-35 will always suffer from" weight problems "and overheating. Thus, under this program, we will never get a reliable, low-cost aircraft ", - the author writes.

To sum up, Fredenburg calls upon Donald Trump to abandon the unprofitable program and “save American taxpayers' money from an unpromising project,” which cost reached $ 1,5 trillion.

    Now friends from Israel will catch up and say that their F-35, thanks to Jewish firmware and software, work better, including the design features of the engine, alloys and the design as a whole)) fellow And only "bast shoes" Russia has been conducting flight tests of the T-50 for almost 10 years, carrying out some kind of load on the glider, endless bench tests. Another thing is the iron, the flight of which and the aerodynamics are constantly adjusted by the computer. And in general, why the Russians, using the principle of "open architecture", carry on-board computers and systems separately on the panel, and not like Americans into a single computer, which then fails from working simultaneously in 10 applications)) laughing Wow, these Russians, probably on the T-50 will also duplicate the analog panel? wassat

              and then you are trying to prove that the Jews are supermen against whom a living person is powerless (only zombies can do something), but the point is not in the Jews, but in the Arabs. these monkeys, whatever you give, they will fail and fall apart. this is when it was necessary to wave sabers and ride a horde, yes there, there they are warriors. and everything that is more difficult than drafts for the Arab is already a hard science. and they are so-so warriors.
              already wrote more than once how they threw entire tanks when the Jews simply threw a lemon on their armor. it’s Russian Vanka, from a burning tank or infantry fighting vehicle to the last he shoots back, and Mahmed smart, like something was banging somewhere, Mahmed put into shirts and bushes. because Vanka is dead, and Mahmed travels to the European cities in gold and tells how he is all man from himself.

                Russian "Vanka" of the 40s and now are not the same thing, don't you think? Then there was a different motivation (the threat of genocide, the state acted in the interests of the majority of the people, a different upbringing, social elevators). And today? Incomes of the population are falling (a consequence of the deindustrialization of the last 25 years), social programs are being cut, "enemies of the people" are not imprisoned (remember Serdyukov and Co.), friends and relatives of one person are $ billionaires (what does Stalin have there?) ... Burn in a tank (preferring opportunities run away) will have to do it all. And for the Rotenberg brothers too.

        Come on. It is easy to argue with us and you can refer to some kind of browser of the yellow leaf. Argue with them.
        Retired USMC General James Mattis, who was selected by US President-elect Donald Trump as future Secretary of Defense, said he would be "clearly committed to continuing the F-35 fighter program."
        This information was given to the newspaper Hartford Courant by a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee Richard Blumenthal. “I was encouraged by his clear commitment to this program and his understanding of the importance of the F-35 in maintaining American air supremacy and increasing it further,” the senator said.
        Speculation about the future of this program began after Trump's famous tweet, which was interpreted by some observers as the beginning of the end of the F-35. However, it became clear now that Trump was simply trying to lower the cost of this program by requiring the plane to be cheaper than it is now. The program supports more than 151 thousand jobs in the United States and tens of thousands around the world.
        The President-elect released the following message: "It was just a dance. But we're really going to get a lower price."

        We do not have equipment on which they are not fighting. Moreover, it is customary to start fighting immediately
        after adoption. So it was with the latest F-16s, Apache, Merkava.
        All teams of technicians, engineers, pilots have been mastering a couple of months
        first two planes in the USA. So they will quickly be put into operation.

              "read something positive, and from the pilots who flew them." /////

              Several times we posted a survey of pilots of different fighters who had transferred to the F-35: "What do you prefer him or your previous plane?" More than 80% preferred the F-35.
              The survey was based on 6-7 criteria: long-range combat, melee, turn, etc.

                  “The survey was based on 6-7 criteria: long-range combat, melee, turn, etc.”
                  Where and by whom? There are either 6 or 7 criteria in a survey.
                  6,5 never happens. By the way, only three are named. And already from them it is clear - nonsense is said. Well, what kind of melee does this iron have, what kind of turn?

                  And on the other hand, what can the Jews do if no one else gives a freebie? But to steal is not possible. Eat r ... yes praise.

                    Yes? and you have no breche?
                    Thirty-one experienced pilots currently flying the F-35A were asked to evaluate the energy and maneuverability of their previous fourth-generation fighters in combat configuration across the entire range of dogfight maneuvers after dropping all their external suspensions. Then they were asked to evaluate the characteristics of the F-35A, using the same scale, with fuel and internal ammunition loading, with combat load, with its current maximum overload and restrictions on the use of weapons. F-35A well stood comparison with four other fighters (F-15C, F-15E, F-16C and a-10) in almost every mode.
                    Each pilot was then asked to choose which fighter he would prefer to fly in battle if his clone flying on another plane in six different air-to-air situations was the enemy. (See diagram 1.) If a pilot chose the F-15C in a short-range situation, for example, he felt that he could surpass the equal-ability pilot on the F-35A. Pilots chose the F-35A in 100% of cases in situations outside of visual visibility and more than 80% in dogfight situations, when energy and maneuverability are critical to success.
                    Instantaneous turn - forced turn (with max. Overload and loss of speed)
                    Sustained turn rate
                    Responsiveness at slow speed - low speed handling
                    Stack / scissors performance - characteristics of vertical and horizontal maneuvers
                    Ability to recover airspeed - ability to recover speed
                    BVR - Out of Visibility
                    9K 'Perch setup - starting position: traverse, attacker’s height plus 1830 meters, distance 3700 m, speed 740 km / h, it starts with an excess of 2600 m and speed 556 km / h

                    The F-35A was not designed to be an air superiority fighter, but the pilots interviewed painted a picture of a fighter that allows for more than just staying in that environment, even with its current G-and maneuverable restrictions. According to a graduate of the F-16C weapons school and an instructor pilot on the F-35A at the present time, “even before reaching initial operational readiness, this fighter exceeded the pilot's expectations with a dissimilar combat capability. There are overload restrictions, but even though the angular rate of turn incredible at a constant 28 degrees / sec. When they lift the Closed Launcher Assault Weapon (CLAW) and remove the G-Restrictions, this fighter will show much more than one would expect. "

                      You know, no.

                      I will say right away - feelings, preferences, comfort, etc. "objective" assessments of American (!) pilots are not very interesting to me personally. Let their superiors, wives and psychoanalysts worry about it.

                      When one and a half trillion dollars have been spent, it will not be difficult, having spent an additional ten or two million, to find those who will assure that the required result has been achieved. According to their "feelings".

                      Real air combat is not a public boast, a computer shooter, or brandishing leaflets.
                      There is only one criterion of truth - practice. That is a fight.

                      Real international aerial combat training. The Indians on our planes endure the entire American and European "fourth generation". Everything. Practically one gate. It is a fact. Despite thousands of tons of promotional items.

                      It is a fact that the Americans are diligently evading the participation of the F-35 in such battles. There are apparently good reasons for this.

                      However, something is leaking. For example, Australian testing in 2008 showed that the F-30 has few chances against the SU-35, to put it mildly. So few that they simply could not be found.

                      There were training fights with the F-16. Rumored to be extremely unfortunate for the F-35. With the very F-16s that the Indians endured.

                      There was a widespread desire to conduct battles with Russian planes. But here, apparently, the grenades turned out to be of the wrong system, and the American A-4 attack aircraft of the mid-50s of the last century was declared as "Russian". Let's not argue with the Americans. Who, if not them, know the real potential of the F-35.

                      From the real, that's all.

                      Do not use what you do not understand. Near to 28 degrees per second, there must be a turning speed. This is the only way to calculate the radius of the reversal loop, and at the same time the overload with an accuracy of + 1G. The angular velocity itself can be with a circle of 1 meter radius, or maybe with a radius of a kilometer for you to understand. And when the so-called G restrictions are removed, what will he begin to maneuver with an overload of 40 G?

And if the Russians over Syria created a poorly poorly good air defense line? Well, of course, it’s unlikely that you will be able to shoot down (it’s a pity the brand new plane, after all) But besides this, there are moments that are interesting to Russian air defense.

            I want to add, or rather, draw a conclusion. Not a single programmer, not a single sane pro can buy such a plane. Expenses during operation and to start this operation will significantly exceed the price of an already expensive miracle plane. He will stand or fly like a pretentious symbol without weapons and aimlessly, like an advertising demonstration for stupid townsfolk .... Successes ....... Too much payment for Atlantic solidarity ..... Forward .....

          Are you sincerely worried about the cost of the F-35? Well, you are not alone.
          Jeff Babione, Executive Vice President and CEO of Lockheed Martin's F-35 program, Jeff Babione, speaking at the welcoming ceremony for the first Israeli fighter of this type at Nevatim Base, Israel, said he would welcome any questions from President-elect Donald Trump about this program and discussions on this topic.
          According to him, the cost of one aircraft in 2019-2020 will fall to $ 85 million (without an engine), that is, it will become less than the price of any fourth-generation fighter in the world.
          In 2014, the U.S. Accounts Chamber predicted that the F-35 fighter fleet being adopted would have an operational cost of 79% more than the fleet of previous generation combat aircraft they replaced. It was believed that the cost of an hour of flight of a fighter version of the F-35A would be $ 32500 compared to $ 25500 for the F-16C / D, with the expectation that the F-35A would have an annual flight time of only 250 hours compared to 316 for the F-16C / D. In December 2015, these figures were revised - the cost of an hour of flight of the F-35A will be $ 29806, and the hour of the F-16C / D - $ 25541. The reduction in the cost of operating a fifth-generation fighter was achieved by reducing the price of JP-8 jet fuel and slowing the rate of fuel combustion in the engine of the F-35A fighter, as well as the use of more advanced hardware modifications. The cost of operating aircraft versions B and C is also reduced.
          According to Babillon, the popular criticism of the F-35 program as a "black hole worth $ 1 trillion" is a thing of the past, the price of one aircraft produced is reduced by the use of the latest manufacturing technologies. He stated that the total cost of production and operation has decreased by $ 60 billion.
          In relation to Great Britain, this program also has a great economic effect, playing the role of a "sucker of money into the national economy". At the peak of production, the program will generate £ 1 billion. a year, supporting 25 thousand jobs across the UK for several decades. "The price will be even cheaper if you understand when the investment we spend is returning back to our country," said Cliff Robson, Senior Vice President of F-35 Lightning II at BAE Systems.

                    I will tell you a little secret - any NEW development (product) is a priori expensive at first, maybe even too much. Then comes the series and work to reduce the cost of the product. And the larger the series, the cheaper the product. At the same time, there is still such a thing as industrial surveys, in which new materials appear (possibly cheaper, without sacrificing performance), new electronics, etc. ... Armata will also not be cheap at first, but UVZ at the threshold said that the price would be lower , with the construction of a large series. The same goes for PAK FA.

        Meshorer, but where else to go if the money invested in development? And where do Americans go - must they be brought up ?!
        The main mistake is the TTZ of this aircraft. Attack aircraft, bomber, fighter with the possibility of vertical on one of three versions. This is overkill. A fighter with a speed of 2 generations, without the possibility of close contact and not the best traction weapon. A bomber with 4 points of internal suspension, for the attack aircraft and there is no desire to speak - it is expensive for him. Chased after universalization, but against the specialized there is nothing to catch.
        For S-400 and 300, Almaz-Antey claims (and a very long time ago and must have been checked for F-22 in Syria) that Amer. stealth technology is not a problem for them. And why is the Yankees asking permission from the Russian Federation for flights over Syria - is the F-22 made using stealth technology ?!
        Voyak, the MiG-35 will presumably cost about 1 billion rubles - there was an article on the site with comments from the MiG Design Bureau. Translate into dollars yourself. Even if the F-35 will cost 80 mil., Then for such one you can buy 4-5 MiGs. We will not say that a MiG unit will do this with one F-35 (it simply does not have enough missiles). And it's not worth bragging about saturated electronics (one or three computers are there) - that's why EW complexes appear in the Russian Federation like pies. hi

          Kasym, you forget that only on the internal suspension the F-35s will carry weapons only in the version of suppressing air defense and gaining superiority in the air. After the destruction of the F-35 air defense will be loaded to the maximum on external suspensions. F-22s fly over Syria with Luneberg lenses, so they ask for permission to fly. Sometimes they fly without Luneberg’s lenses, but then the Russians do not even have a clue about their flights and accordingly no permission is required. In general, I suggest you really look at reality. The last success of Russian air defense was in the 73rd year in the Doomsday War. After that, there were some shameful defeats (the last in 2008 when the Syrian atomic reactor was destroyed. Then the Torah and the Shell simply stopped working for several hours without any reason))) so you have to be more modest, more modest ...

            There were no Thors in Syria - they weren’t supplied, they weren’t sent, they weren’t rented.

                11 batteries of Syrian air defense in Lebanon (the best that was at that time in the Soviet assortment)

                The best? Why?
                The service of the Syrians in Lebanon was not easy and took place in a difficult, often conflicting situation, especially between the right-Christian forces (Lebanese forces) hostile to the Syrians and frequent clashes with Israelis, primarily in the sky.
                Air battles between Israeli F-15 aircraft and Syrian MiG-21 took place almost daily, and with heavy losses for the Syrians. And this is not surprising, outdated modifications of the MiG-21 were inferior in tactical and technical terms to the more modern F-15. The situation was aggravated by the fact that there was no real radar field on Lebanese territory, which enabled Syrian aviation to detect air targets. The same can be said about the radio-electronic equipment of the MiG-21 aircraft. Hence the low noise immunity. It was not even necessary to talk about such an important technical and tactical factor as the hidden control of aircraft.
                The same situation was in the ZRV. Anti-aircraft missile systems of all systems were poorly protected from interference and vulnerable. In addition, the Israelis knew all the frequencies of the Syrian complexes and easily carried out the opposition. It was not in the Syrian air defense forces and air force and modern automated controls (ACS). These are the reasons for the great losses suffered by the Syrian army on two fronts - in Lebanon and on its territory.

                The reservists who participated in the conflict, returning home, launched a protest campaign demanding the resignation of people who they believed were guilty of Israeli military defeat - Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Defense Minister Amir Peretz and Dan Halutz. It was indicated, in particular, that Dan Halutz, as a native of the Air Force, could not correctly assess the significance of the land phase of the operation. However, despite criticism, not one of these three resigned.

            My friend, what has to do with modesty, am I not a Russian? On the contrary, I try to be as neutral as possible. I have no doubts about American electronics. But air defense is not the capabilities of the aircraft's avionics. What will you put into the inner compartments to "extinguish" ground-based radars operating in different bands? I don't remember exactly what year, but the first time Almaz-Antey announced the possibility of detecting stealth was at an exhibition in the UAE. And there is no need to give examples of 40 years ago, especially since not the most advanced was always exported. Moreover, there was no talk of echeloned air defense. This has only now been achieved in that Syria. From this air defense, the United States and Turkey are definitely uncomfortable. The Turks were generally blown away after the deployment of air defense and the downed plane.
            Remember the incident last year when the Syrians lured out the F-22. Empty Su-24s of the Syrian Air Force flew over Kurdish territories, where the Americans were. And then the Ministry of Defense announced that F-22s flew to intercept them (I don't think they were going to intercept with lenses) - this suggests that the Russian Aerospace Forces was tracking everything, even drawing flight routes. F-22 RF and in Japan tracked. So I wouldn't really rely on stealth - they somehow have advantages against airborne radars, but over ground ones ... sorry, the "energy" is not the same.
            And finally, your recognition of the work of electronic warfare - especially against the background of statements by American specialists and generals about the capabilities of Russian complexes (which I have already lost count of and which, according to their recognition, are better than American ones). Since they are "extinguishing" the air defense, do you think it is impossible to "extinguish" the aircraft electronics, or are these high-precision missiles stuffed with it !? And then how to attack air defense systems - AB, AP or NURS ?! hi

              I answer the points: F-35 is multi-functional, just like the F-15E and F-16. The F-35 is not inferior to 4th-generation aircraft in terms of thrust-bearing maneuverability, but this does not matter in the era of all-angle melee missiles. In the stealth version, it carries 6 missiles. For the F-35 it is preferable to DVB because there is no chance for an adversary in it. In the BVB, the enemy has chances against the F-35, but the likelihood of a scenario in which the SU-35 can fly to the BVB distance is negligible.
              Maximum overload 9G, afterburning supersonic speed, excellent thrust-to-weight ratio — even in the BVB the SU-35 will have little chance against the F-35. I can’t say anything about the T-50, but if the infa is true that the EPR is reduced only in the front, then this is where the child prodigy actually cut the dough)))

              Regarding electronic warfare, it is much easier to use them against stationary air defense than against an airplane.

                About the work of electronic warfare. Please look at the "Mercury" complex - an explosion on the way. And how and with what, I repeat, to destroy the air defense radar?
                My friend, the F-35, as the main front-line fighter, must "hang" over the land battlefield. Or would you order to "shoot" missiles at the enemy's BTT from the maximum distance (the cost of such missiles is equal to that of BTT)? And how to clean up the hovering turntables at a low height and folds of the terrain (it is very difficult to see on the radar monitors - "swam", I know, was on the tablet)? Also from 200-300 km. wake up No, friend, that won't work.
                The fact of the matter (as he wrote in the first comment) is that the station wagon. Specialized will complete the task better. And in the BVB with the Su-27 and MiG-29 can not cope, not that with the ATS Su-30 (35) or MiG-35.
                The enemy F-35, who will be "guided" from the ground, has no less chances. And what kind of missiles does the F-35 have for the far arm (to have an advantage in the DVB), the maximum that is is 120km-200km. And what about the range of the S-400 missiles? While the rockets are all old - and we must rely on them have their own computers. Electronic warfare. With a normal takeoff weight, the thrust arrangement is 0,6 - 0,7 - do you think this is normal !? With a maximum of just over 1 - but there is no BVB (BMB). Generally, the BVB is characterized by the time of the full bend (360 degree turn) and the radius. For the Su-27 it is 10 seconds (the MiG-29 is even less). There is no need to talk about the F-15,16,18, here even the NATO pilots' jaws dropped at the airshow on this issue (much more). For the BVB, the external suspension for the F-35 is "burdensome" - weak thrust equipment, and the internal ones are simply small for a good dog dump (this is the level of the MiG-21 in terms of armament-4 missiles, even with all the development of all-aspect guidance). And then how to get out of the BVB, if the maximum speed is small (1900 km / h)?
                At low altitude and against the background of the mountains, there is such a "light" that it is impossible to distinguish anything there - here only by "heat", but there are limitations in range. So there is a way to approach these stealth machines. And you say that it is impossible to get close.
                Yes, do not flatter yourself with these EPR and stealth (which were developed during the USSR). Stealth coating based on paints and varnishes, fuselage geometry, etc. Then, the counteraction was worked out. Just look at the development of the radar. hi

                F-35 is multifunctional

                The fact is that you can declare anything you want, even to the point that the F-35 is a space ship. But the problem is that its versatility is very much in question. Yes, he has an extensive range of missiles and bombs that he can use ... but in a confrontation with a serious opponent, who will let him prove himself as an IFI? At best, the F-35 will be used as a bomber, because the attack aircraft from it is the same as from the iron. Fighter qualities, he, well, does not shine. It reminds me of the infamous F-117, which was kind of stealth, but then it turned out that he had better fly at night, and preferably in those places where there was no enemy air defense. I believe the same fate awaits the F-35.
                About maneuverability (I will not say anything about super-maneuverability) of the F-35 we can say that it is no better than that of 4th generation fighters. Speed? According to the statements of mattresses without afterburner, he is able to fly on supersonic, but not for long. But it seems to me that he cannot do this either.
                And in the bottom line, we have a dubious advantage in the form of stealth technology (which was obsolete back in 60 years) and radar. And that is all. In this case, the big question is whose radar is better on the same SU-30, SU-35 or F-35. There was no practice. But I think that ROFAR will soon appear, and then this dubious trump card will be reset to zero.
                And now the main question is, What will mattresses and co do when all the cards are beaten? They actually have nothing to replace the F-35! From the word ABSOLUTELY.

                Dear, do you believe in those performance characteristics that they issue? For example. Ahead is the AFAR with over 1000 independent elements, each of which has 3 wires (not some kind of composite, but metal). Imagine now those wiring harnesses to this AFAR, and they are in the bow, with an area of ​​over 1 sq. And what is the EPR of 0,001 can we talk about asking? Or that one engine. With the BVB, the fragments will fly (why did they stick the AP there, weighing under 10% of the plane) and what to do with one engine? If the rivet hits, you will have to go to the exit. And what kind of reliability can we say?

With a combat (50% !!! fuel) about 1 (i.e. a range of 500 km - which was one of the minuses of the MiG-29), with a normal load of up to 0,8; at a maximum of 0,6.

                Or here’s DVB, old missiles, a maximum of 180 km. - see the performance characteristics of Russian missiles, especially the S-300 (400) air defense systems.

At the same time, no one will look at what will be brought down or not.

Electronic warfare - and what would you like to do, not fight !? So those AB (bomb), AP (cannon), NURS (uncontrolled cancer) will be used. and anti-aircraft artillery. That is why I think that a fighter must be super maneuverable. And the pilot will fully own and use the AP in the BVB.

And it turned out for them it is very successful. 12 Phantoms are walking at low altitude, no one sees them. Just before the air defense point, they make a hill, drop everything they have, and quickly leave. Our Arab friends have no time to do anything. Very quickly Phantoms appear, bomb, and disappear. The air defense system is being restored for a week. A week later, the Phantoms arrive again and everything repeats. One of our advisers is tired of all this. He called his friend - an artilleryman and asked to allocate "Grad" for a couple of days. They put this "Grad" in the very center of the battery, pointed it into the sky and began to wait. Insolent Jews again, as on schedule, arrive to bomb the point. As always, they make a slide, go to the peak ... And then our Bah-Bah! ... from all forty trunks. There are explosions all around ... There are 12 parachutes in the sky. As it turned out later, not a single shell never hit the plane. But the pilot doesn't care what is flying at him - a blank with TNT or an air defense missile system. So they all twitched, who had time for what. After this incident, the Phantoms did not arrive for a long time to bomb our point. Everyone figured out how they were able to shoot down 12 planes at once? ..

          When the F-16s were put into operation in NATO countries, there were accidents and bailouts every month. Lost (over a period comparable to the current with the F-35) dozens of aircraft.
          Just then there was no Internet, otherwise it would be a cry to heaven smile

            Jokes of the F16 fighter over the Dead Sea Colleagues from the Israeli department of Motorola told such a bike ...
            Israel. Desert over the Dead Sea. Air Force training. Cheshet F16 on a shaver, jumping on bumps. Flies up to the Dead Sea ... RESET the entire navigation system !!! And the speed is more than 400 km \ hour.
            Open up motor scooters-developers. Repeat the flight. RESET !!! Repeat the entire cycle, including operations on developers repeatedly. In a flying airplane, debugging a program is difficult. On earth, all tests pass on URA. Pilots, to put it mildly, do not show a desire to fly without an on-board computer. The Dead Sea region is strategically important and the General Staff has everyone in all holes and even digs new ones. In short, the situation is two aces on the meager.
            In the end, one wise guy guessed. The height of the Dead Sea is MINUS 500 meters. Shaving flight. So when this pepelats flew through 0 heights, the on-board computer simply divided by 0 and restarted the equipment, inevitable as a world revolution.
            Since then, this case has been an invariable part of the Motorola microcontroller course.

                  This has already been verified by the Norwegians in training battles against their own F-16s.
                  The F-4 will be able to fight quietly against 35th generation fighters due to its "good vision" and its own stealth, and against 22th generation air superiority fighters (like the F-50 or T-5) - only in a group.

Another thing is the iron, the flight of which and the aerodynamics are constantly adjusted by the computer.

    “Another major feature of the T-10 for the first time in domestic fighter aviation was to be the implementation of the concept of longitudinal static instability of the aircraft at subsonic flight speeds with the provision of its longitudinal balancing in flight by means of the automation of a fourfold redundant fly-by-wire control system (EDSU). The idea of ​​replacing the traditional mechanical control wiring with EDSU was already used by the OKB when creating the T-4 aircraft, the tests of which confirmed the correctness of the main technical solutions. The adoption of the concept of longitudinal static instability (otherwise - "electronic stability") promised serious advantages: for balancing the aircraft at high angles of attack, it was necessary to deflect the stabilizer toe up, at the same time, its lift was added to the lift of the wing, which gave a significant improvement in the bearing properties of the fighter with a slight increase in its resistance. Thanks to the use of integral static instability The Su-27 was to acquire exceptional maneuverability, allowing it to perform in the air evolutions that are inaccessible to conventional aircraft, and to have a long flight range without outboard tanks.

    in general, seriously, I am quite normal about the fact that the Americans manage to bring in their incredibly overrated technology, even the Jews. Either this is a conspiracy, or the Americans surpassed the Jews. Although I do not argue that Americans can sell anything (even at my place they hired Americans to sell products)
    Probably all the same, sometime in the future, the Americans and their allies will still be able to make the poorly flying and working aircraft out of f 35. Although it may not, because they already had precedents.
    But first, I wanted to recall a story. First, the recent one: as I understand it, 22 that 35 were initially called invisible planes, then inconspicuous and now they somehow call them even more sophisticatedly, although the degradation of the original characteristics is clearly observed. The main performance characteristics are also degrading in other areas, due to the fact that in the process of completion new and new problems come out, which increasingly lower the capabilities of the aircraft to lower classes and categories, only so that it continues to fly and at least somehow sell, because there are enough suckers and they hawala everything that they weave, and there are no other options for suckers. They have long been hooked.
    Next is the second story from a more distant past. The USSR had a T 34 tank at one time, it was very rude to the end and was not finalized, but it had decent enough characteristics for its time (practically had no competitors) and fought not bad enough, with proper care and even cost a penny. But the Germans, do not be Germans, decided to surpass the Russians and created a Tiger (the so-called) that completely surpassed the T 34 in all respects, and at a price of duck at all. The tiger was really a good machine, I even consider it to be one of the best in World War II, but it was too complicated and expensive and, as it turned out, its original adversary was also 2 who) learned how to deal with it: at first the tankers drove the tigers together three shot on board, and having received a more powerful gun and even alone learned to fight. And already when the advice of IP 34 was made, then this Tiger already only fought from ambush and no matter how modernized it was, so it ingloriously ended the war. Although in terms of technical characteristics - was one of the best tanks. And what Is and what T 2 were much cheaper and produced in much larger quantities, and care and maintenance required much less, etc., etc. .. I won’t be surprised if the Syrians manage to drive one such Jewess on MiG 34

          15-16 is not really a bad American car. They are even possible, if you pump them a little, according to some characteristics they will exceed 35.
          Personally, I do not have anything in fact, I just want to remind you that the planes currently manufactured do not correspond to the performance characteristics that were originally announced. Perhaps they are even 35-15 at some points inferior (well, or inferior some time ago)
          What interests me more is how they will be used in real combat. If, based on the American concept (flew up to an unattainable distance and pulled two three guided missiles and knocked it down), then it’s probably money down the drain or works with natives who are armed with ancient equipment and still don’t know how to use it.
          But with a serious adversary who also has good air defense and, at the very least, the Air Force is poor, such garbage will not work. These 35 cannot hunt alone, they need support for guidance, or they will be spotted, and any activity of support is also noticeable, and if they spot it, it may even catch up.
          In general, I am speculating, of course, hypothetically, but the United States has not fought a real enemy for a long time, and their whole concept of weapons comes from the experience of fighting backward natives. In general, for me, their whole idea of ​​the so-called 5th generation is flawed, worse than the fact that they also cannot embody all those ideas they wanted. And I am very surprised that the Russian Federation followed their path. Okay, at least there is enough sense not to completely copy the concept of an "iron with a motor", but the statements that this year they will put into service 5 T 50 aircraft amazes me, since engines for them with those declared characteristics have not yet been fully created.

    Actually, the piece of iron is priced at 485 mil. green you can’t name a freebie. This is the price for the machine itself and the price of operation over the entire service life.
    Exactly the same amount is a piece of pure gold of the same mass as this stray. So our dear partners from Tel Aviv will hammer in nails with a golden hammer. And God forbid, the enemies of Israel will learn to shoot down these "invisible things". By the way, they are poorly visible exactly until the moment when the pilot turns on his locator. That is, we do not see until he sees himself. Such is the game of tagging with a blindfold. But if he wants to look around, he will immediately see himself. In theory, there is no justification for making the locator beam invisible. Which, by the way, is determined by the enemy much more effectively. Since the enemy sees the direct signal of the beam, and the pilot himself is reflected, which is many orders of magnitude stronger.

      By the way, they are poorly visible right up to the moment when the pilot turns on his locator

      Any airplane has side-view locators, they aren’t turned off, besides .. equipment that allows you to navigate in space works .. altitude meter for example .. So any airplane lights up. Even when the main locator is turned off.
      Well, I must add that the air defense built by the Russian Armed Forces is MULTI-LEVEL. Where s-300,400 center, and in addition there is a memory of medium, small radius and passive detection tools.
      Under such conditions, you can either open it by sending a pack of unnecessary aircraft for slaughter, then shoot at the detected launchers from lightnings on reloading. Or .. using the folds of the area, the surface profile .. get as close as possible to the PU and thereby reduce the reaction time, strike.
      Threat .. still wants to add ..

      And here only envy of the will and goals of the Russian leadership .. And how quickly Iran’s air defense will receive data from such a complex .. Working .. let's say in Armenia .. Or on the Caspian coast.

    the su35 sees the target with epr about 3 for 200 km, if the Americans are so sure that their stealth is invisible, why don't they check their f22 on the su35, c300 (400) .. if you just need f22 to approach the su35 at a distance of 180-190 km and ask the su35 pilot whether he sees f22 or not, I think this information will be useful for the Pentagon, and also check to see if the f22 su35 pilot sees the RIBs turned on, it’s also interesting for the pilots to find out)) the su35 was easily detected by the US stealth drone in Syria and accompanied them

    I can’t understand one thing, are the Americans so stubborn that they won’t refuse this iron, even if its cost increases significantly. but the problems will remain the same .... What is in this development such that it cannot be abandoned ...? Loss of image ... ??? A bunch of money already invested in it ... ??? What is there in the contract that even the Pentagon cannot hack this project .... and switch to another, really promising ... ??? It seems to me that there is no such project and is not visible in the foreseeable future, and they cannot recognize the fact that American engineering in aircraft construction is in a terrible impasse, unable to offer anything worthwhile.

    To sum up, Fredenburg calls upon Donald Trump to abandon the unprofitable program and “save American taxpayers' money from an unpromising project,” which cost reached $ 1,5 trillion.

    The fundamental question is - what did the money go for?
    2 answers:
    This is the largest cut in US history. Guilty - Air Force customers, administration, developers. etc.

    This is the biggest cut in US history that the guilty are too big and there are too many. We will slowly thump money and further - while there is an opportunity.

    Option 2 is more realistic - until the F-35 (or "raptor") is done somewhere in full.

      Dear, you cannot be so illiterate ...
      The Hibbins EW complex is not capable of jamming the electronics of ships and aircraft, this is the time. His job is to set up phantoms of the aircraft in order to confuse the missile guidance head! And nothing more.
      Second-on SU-24 there are NO REB KHIBINA COMPLEXES!
      And the third, according to Cook, the EW complex was supposedly Monolith ... but there is one thing ... this destroyer was leading at least about a dozen of our radar systems, as a result of which, Cook's electronics literally roared. And our coastal electronic warfare complex completed the job.

    Here the command of our Air Force considers this machine "the best tool for war"

    Against war with whom? Where was the F-35 seen, where would it deal with the forces of the Air Force and Air Defense of another country?

    Let's wait and see. For example, the Su-35 also did not participate in any aerial combat, so would we question its combat qualities?

    But they were present at the theater. And they did not find an adversary. This, after all, is not the fault of the plane. But the F35 seems to be cherished, but not because of its incredible cost and incredibly secret qualities, but desperately afraid to declassify among its pilots a real discrepancy with the conditions of real air combat. You need to believe in your weapons.

    However, when the SU-35S appeared in Syria, the Turkish Air Force sat quietly at its airfields without the risk of contacting this fighter.

    Yes, quit. There were only 4 Su-35s. They did not radically change anything. Economic pressure and the failed military coup did much more.

    The behavior of the Turkish Air Force has radically changed. And the tone of the warriors in Istanbul changed, swearing earlier to bring down all. Of course, the diverse pressure on Turkey from Russia made Erdogan almost a friend of Putin. Further- Erdogan almost forgot the way to Washington complaining about the behavior of Russia. And at first his rudeness was immense.

    So, there are only 4 modern combat units ....

    Thanks to the use of an integral statically unstable configuration, the Su-27 had to acquire exceptional maneuverability, allowing it to carry out evolutions in the air that are inaccessible to conventional aircraft, and have a long flight range without outboard tanks. "

    ------------------------------------
    You are talking about over-maneuverability, in the Pentagon this property has been discarded as unnecessary, their concept is to bomb without entering the zone of destruction of fire and other enemy weapons.

    Concept - fight while sitting on the couch.
    This concept can ruin the country, but to defeat the enemy, no. Examples of this are a bunch.

    We exchanged views. I read all the posts of opponents and respect their points of view

    Advantages of the F-35 in my opinion: the Americans managed to place large internal fuel tanks, a very advanced avionics and electron-optical system, by the way, spaced.
    Naturally, this is a step forward but not a death star.

    The desire to push everything inside, plus disfigure the contours of the fuselage because of the maniacal goal of making it invisible, made the plane unarmed (this especially applies to the "C" modification), and unable to fly.

    Do you really believe that the Americans (for themselves) firmly believe that Russia is going to fight against them? And at the same time, entering into the financial interests of firms that delegate and maintain them in these public positions, will be contrary to the manufacture of high-priced and not capable of fighting glands? In the name of WHAT? Here, in the name, MORE EXPENSIVE, yes. The higher the profits of the firms, the higher the kickbacks.
