This morally and physically obsolete Su-24 ...

189


When this material comes out, we will be at the funeral of Yury Kopylov, our countryman who died in Syria. Sad moment about which nothing more to say. But I want to say a few words about the plane, especially since the gentlemen "experts" give us a cloud of reasons for this.



How many angry articles were already on “when this junk is removed”, “the plane is physically and morally obsolete” and stuff like that. Good to write on the case, and so ... They even remembered the "titan fires" that occurred at the very beginning of the flight career of the aircraft and were eliminated when Saturn rebuilt the compressor and Su-24 began to be equipped with modified AL-21F-3 engines, and then AL-21F-ZA and AL-21F-ZAT.

Immediately a series of stories began that the Su-24 is the most emergency aircraft of almost all history Air Force Although, if you believe Magomed Tolboev (and who to believe, if not him), then the most alert was the Su-7B.

But let's turn to statistics. She is a stubborn thing.

From 1973 to today with the participation of the Su-24 there were 87 accidents and disasters, 52 of which killed 90 crew members and 7 people of ground personnel.

The causes of disasters were in 70 cases of equipment failure, in 29 cases of crew errors and 8 cases - other reasons (combat losses, birds).

Before the 1990, equipment failures dominated (from 57 12 cases due to crew fault and 2 for other reasons), after 1990, the number of crew accidents began to increase.

87 accidents and disasters for 44 service years. Is it a lot or a little? Especially when you consider that, taking 1990 for a certain year, then for the first 17 years 57 emergency occurred, and for the next 27 - 30.

Yes, in recent accidents involving the Su-24 somewhat more frequent.

October 30 2012 of the year Su-24 crashed 70 km from Chelyabinsk while performing a training flight. The plane blew off the nose cone. Both pilots managed to eject.

10 November 2012 of the year at the airfield Morozovsk in the Rostov region Su-24 when landing rolled out of the runway due to a broken parachute and burnt down. The pilots ejected.

11 February 2015 of the year Su-24 fell into 7 km from the runway of the Marinovka airfield in the Volgograd region. Both pilots died. After that, the Ministry of Defense suspended all Su-24 flights, half a year later, after an investigation and checks, the flights were resumed.

6 July 2015 was a disaster of the Su-24 in the Khabarovsk Territory. Immediately after separation from the runway, the engine failed. The pilots could not be saved.

And so, October 10 2017. Once again a catastrophe, and the crew did not have time to eject. Unfortunately.

Are these numbers enough to conclude that Su-24 is outdated morally and physically? Some experts - completely. But if you count on almost 1 500 aircraft of all modifications, then, as it were, and not very weighty.

It should be noted that the "pure" Su-24 is no longer there. The minimum is Su-24M, the maximum is Su-24М2, which have undergone modernization and are very different from the original version of the bomber. Yes, and their number, let's face it, is small. 140 Su-24М / М2 and 79 Su-24МР is all that is left for today.



Is the plane physically so outdated? Given the upgrades that are carried out in the factory, with a proper survey of the entire aircraft, I think that we are not talking about glider fatigue.

The same Tu-95 for us and В-52 for “them” are still in service for even more years, and nothing.

We are not talking about the moral side either, especially in the case of the modernization of M2. It’s a normal bomber, capable of doing its job in the absence of countermeasures aviation the enemy. It is proved by Syria.

By the way, about Syria.

It is also worth referring to the numbers. The defense ministry and many media outlets report on strikes. In one of the latest communiqué on actions in the region of Deiz-ez-Zor, 150 was told about strikes against militants by our videoconferencing forces in a day.

Considering that in the air group today there are about 20 attack aircraft (8 Su-34, 12 Su-24М) and about the same number of fighter jets, then in order to strike 150 strikes, each aircraft must make 4 departure.

It is clear that the bomber in terms of efficiency is somewhat superior to the fighter / fighter-bomber. And it is no secret to anyone today that the number of crews in Syria far exceeds the number of aircraft. This is normal; two crews may well make a day on 2 or 3 departure. The alternation allows the pilots to rest before another attack on the terrorists.

Aircraft, as we see, also cope. As well as technical personnel, otherwise we would read news of accidents and catastrophes much more often.

It is obvious that what happened to the Su-24, is the result of the fact that the technology simply did not watch, as they say. That is quite natural in combat conditions and not with the newest aircraft. There is no problem with the Su-34, but the planes are also “fresh”.

I do not condone technical personnel, but I also don’t “hang all the dogs” on the technicians, because, firstly, I don’t know exactly how many technical teams work there, and secondly, the technicians still work. I say that the Su-24 is an aircraft that has shown itself not in one conflict, and shouting that it should be urgently removed from the arsenal is somewhat rash.

140 bombers are 140 combat vehicles, still capable of completing a combat mission. And just take them and saw them, arguing that the Su-34 is better is just nonsense, no matter what the supporters of the case say.



Since the beginning of production, that is, from 2008, 122 Su-34 has been released. That is, 13,5 aircraft per year. The “hole” formed by 140 of Su-24М / М2 urgently decommissioned, respectively, will be patched over 10 years.

Can we afford this?

In an absolutely peaceful and stable time - completely. But if peacetime, even with some stretch, is the place to be, then we can only dream about stability in our country. Including, concerning the military budget. Abbreviations have a place to be constantly, everyone knows it perfectly.

Another question is really a problem with technical staff. Yes, the aviation technical schools today, if they do not survive a boom, then at least a competition has appeared. But the “hole” punched in the 90-x and the beginning of the 2000-x is still patched and patched.

That is exactly what the people who are responsible for this question told me at the Zhukovsky and Gagarin Academy.

There is a huge shortage of engineers in the VKS, it is a fact. At the academy, they are trying to reduce this deficiency. It seems to be working, but not as fast as we would like. A diploma from a commercial college with the prospect of sitting in an office at a computer is still preferable to an aerodrome blown by all winds and the prospect of testing an engine and bomb suspension in thirty degrees of frost. Alas.

If we talk about today's problem, this is a problem that must be solved. Do not write off jets that can serve another ten years or more, but prepare personnel capable of making planes fly without a crash.







What is the use of modern Su-34, Su-35, Su-57, if there is not enough for them those who will make sure that the planes fly and fly as they should? No matter how up-to-date aircraft of the fifth, sixth, eighth generation be stuffed with ultra-modern electronics, without knowing and knowing how to properly apply their knowledge of engineers, this will not be military equipment.

With competent technical staff and Su-24 will be awesome for a long time weapons. Without - any aircraft will become a problem for the pilot.

Not about the moral or physical fatigue of the Su-24 today need to think, but about those who can do so that the aircraft did not get tired.

    The problem of literate cadres has always been, but after 90 and Serdyukov transformations became very acute. And this is characteristic not only for the videoconferencing. It should be noted that everyone needs competent specialists, but the commanders still do not like them: they spoil a beautiful picture of straight lines and success in drill training, while they require adherence to technical discipline. discuss the "Dyatlovskie" orders and orders of smart upper headquarters. Most of them were young, promising, who did not hold a wrench in their hands, had never used a sapper blade for their intended purpose. And when you consider that we remained in command, sorry but most of the army scum of the 90s, when the most active part of the army left, but the picture becomes even very sad. Another problem in the troops in relation to the officers is that they no longer see a person, but everyone decides to get the money, do it.

      So maybe it’s worth attracting civilian specialists for such purposes, from the manufacturer’s company, where they will undergo training and retraining, and most importantly they will have a vested interest in the trouble-free operation of aircraft, so as not to spoil the export prospects of their aircraft ...

        Now it is very often used, but is not a way out. But the method of smearing responsibility for the result. The conclusion about the readiness for flight should be given by the person (commander) operating the unit. and a representative of industry, only give their opinion. Shifting responsibility hides its own incompetence.

          Well, well .... The person operating this unit (you mean the plane or the unit in general) CANNOT give a conclusion about the suitability. The operator trusts the MANUFACTURER, or the REPAIRMAN, who performed the repair of the unit (or the aircraft, if you mean it). I ask you not to confuse operation and external inspection ...

            The operator trusts the MANUFACTURER


            Nonsense. The IAS specialist, or the flight crew, performs ITS types of work and inspections according to ITS guidance documents (NIAS, ERTE, NPP). And nobody is going to “trust” anyone. Everyone puts his signature for certain actions (and signed up to eight years in prison). And for a showdown with the manufacturer, there is a procedure for complaints, it is also painted in the NIAS before the points and deadlines - "who, how and when."

              When discussing serious issues, the correct terminology should be used, otherwise the level of discussion decreases and the goal is not achieved.
              The work characterizes the costs of the specialist for the operation. Therefore, technological operations are carried out according to the technological maps, and the completeness and timeliness of operations is controlled.
              The latest regulatory document from the NIAS series has lost its force with the release of NIAO-90. In addition, NIAS was approved by order of the Commander-in-Chief of the USSR Air Force and acted as an aircraft of the USSR Armed Forces, and NIIA was approved by a government decree, since it is a regulatory document for state aviation.
              Calling a "showdown with the manufacturer" a reclamation work is, in my understanding, generally, beyond good and evil.
              In general, why bust open the door, talking about "trust" in an area where, as you know, the level of regulation and personal responsibility is quite high?

        The Su-24M has long been replaced, but there is nothing to change. With the destruction of the SU-17M4 and MIG-27, this aircraft in Syria does their job, not its own. If we compare the reliability and laboriousness for 1 hour of flight, it is almost an order of magnitude worse than even the SU-17M4, but we don’t even need to remember the SU-27 and its modifications ....

If we want to improve the quality and responsibility of the engineering staff, then let's start with financially incentive and improve working conditions, and only then will we tighten the requirements for it, people need to create appropriate working conditions in which there are problems with the processing of standard hours, which are not paid separately, in contrast, for example, to the hourly flight of the flight personnel, as well as updating the corresponding uniforms and equipping with modern means and mechanisms to facilitate and increase the efficiency of labor of engineering and technical personnel. Until the Ministry of Defense understands the special importance of engineering and technical support and starts treating it almost the same as flight crews, we don’t have to wait for any positive changes for the better due to the accident-free operation of our aircraft.

      For the money that the IAS servicemen get today, they don’t really want to do something, given the specific conditions and harmfulness of this specialty, the salary that compensates for all these loads does not reach an acceptable level, for some reason they are used to observing only the flight personnel, but engineering -technical as a rule remains on the sidelines, and this is fundamentally not the right position, since the accident-free operation of aviation and the lives of pilots depends on these people, then attention and attitude from the Defense Ministry and, in particular, the airborne command to the engineering staff should be appropriate , and not a devil like now.

    Immediately a series of stories began that the Su-24 was the most emergency aircraft in almost the entire history of the Air Force. Although, according to Magomed Tolboev (and who to believe, if not him), the most emergency was Su-7B.
    He certainly knows better, but remember that this not very honorary title was firmly attached to the Tu-22 ... In general, for a very long time the “drying” of course could not be called a “very reliable aircraft”, especially the dislike of air defense pilots to the Su- 9 and Su-11 ...
    But the article raised the question correctly. With such intensive use of equipment, and on that day, the Moscow Region already announced 182 sorties at the end of the day. That is, after the crash of Su-24, that day 30 more flights were made ... For that rather small group of our aircraft, which is concentrated in Syria is a lot, even VERY, VERY MUCH. And I understand that our engineering and technical personnel do everything there that can and even a little more. But everything has limits. And now it’s becoming increasingly clear that this requires not only the self-sacrificing readiness of our Air Force specialists and pilots, but also the readiness of our industry to timely make the necessary changes to the configuration and modernization of aircraft. As well as improving the equipment of ground services in terms of supplying newer and more accurate diagnostic equipment. And MO, accordingly, have time to quickly carry out training on it.
    From the statistics given, it is clear that the percentage of death of our pilots, which either cannot or do not have time to eject, is very time to finish with this, namely to install ejection seats that allow you to leave the plane at 0 speed and 0 altitude, and most importantly give an order that in such conditions, the aircraft should be STOPPED, in order to save the life of the crew.

      But such a team will always be given (and not an order), unless of course there is an opportunity, precisely in order to save the crew. Moreover, the crew itself determines when to leave the plane, according to the Guides, Instructions, Instructions, knowledge of a / technique, actions in special cases, competent actions in an emergency, readiness for flight, etc. To leave the plane, it is necessary to correctly assess the situation, as well as those who give the crew a bailout command - they are also obliged to correctly submit a command.

      Such chairs have long been standing, including on the Su-24. Called K-36D
      The problem is precisely that the situation on take-off / landing is developing rapidly. The take-off speed of the Su-24 is about 400 km / h. This is 100 meters per second. That is, during the decision to eject, the aircraft can decompose several times on some object of relief.

        So she MUST appear on the Su-24. Consequently, by order of this system, if it has different operating modes, then on take-off and landing it must be transferred to the AUTOMATIC position and, again, it is better to make such a switchover automatically.

          Hmm ... It is impossible to realize this.
          On the Yak-141, the system responded to roll speed. The fact is that in case of failure of the lifting engine or control system, the aircraft quickly capsized and, accordingly, crashed. Ejection at ultra-low altitude with your head down is quite a sentence even for the K-36. That is why the system reacted to roll speed and forcibly ejected the pilot when it was still safe. That is, in the upper hemisphere.
          As for the Su-24, not a single automatic system will determine what the aircraft has ahead - 1000 meters of the runway or concrete cube of the short-range drive. So alas - so far the decision will still be made by man.

        I also think that the author is right, but not that these planes have nothing to replace, there is already something. Simple, but why change them there? What is the enemy's strong air defense, electronic warfare systems at every turn? No, it’s not there, but it means you can use the old planes completely, but it’s precisely in order to understand what else can be modernized on them, in order to increase capabilities and what should be installed on the same Su-34s

        The fact that already in the USSR in Machulishchi showed the forerunner of the Su-34. It’s just that in the 90s it was not possible to put 34-ku in a series. Although they tried due to import orders. Remember about the Su-32 at exhibitions, BUT ..... request didn’t grow together and now the old man Su-24 is still in the ranks and pulls the strap properly.
        The same Tu-95 for us and В-52 for “them” are still in service for even more years, and nothing.
        Well, in the first place - not the old 95s, obviously not 50 = x; in the second - there is no need to compare the load on the glider among strategists and tacticians. Wear on the glider is clearly not in favor of tactics. Pretzel strategists in the air do not prescribe similar ones.

        In general, you cannot blame everything on one designer. Just the level of requirements for military equipment at that time was ahead of the technological level of industry of the USSR. It should be noted that the Su-17M ... and Su-24 aircraft, created in the early 1970s, already contained constructive solutions that facilitated the solution of engineering support tasks and thereby increased combat readiness and flight safety.

      "namely, to install ejection seats, allowing you to leave the plane at 0 speed and 0 altitude, and most importantly give an order that in such conditions the plane should be STOPPED,"
      The plane began to produce in the 70s, then the place was no seats that provide two zeros, i.e. zero speed and zero altitude. On the MiG-23 only a chair appeared - "zero hundred thirty", and the first ones with two zeros are K-36D as far as I remember. To put a new chair on an airplane, it is necessary to remake the cockpit, well, to do a chair for it, and given that the airplane is already pre-retirement and there are few of them left, it is unlikely that anyone will do it. And as for leaving the emergency plane, the "instructions to the pilot in special cases" explicitly states in what situations the pilot MUST leave the plane.

      If the memory serves, on the Su-24 chair allows you to eject at 0 altitude and 0 speed.
      Another thing is that the pilot must have time to perform a certain sequence of actions, with a shortage of time.
      As for orders to leave. In Soviet times, after take-off from a Polish airfield, the afterburner at the MiG-23 turned off. In accordance with the instructions, the pilot catapulted. The aircraft continued to climb, flew over Poland, then Germany and, having developed fuel, thrust into a residential building in Belgium, killing a teenager.

In a war, under the conditions of opposing enemy fighters, Su-24s will not survive, and in Syria the enemy has no fighters yet.

      Or maybe they fly the most on them? It is necessary to calculate the number of take-offs for each type of aircraft, and this does not work out objectively. For example:
      in 2015, the Kremlin lost two Tu-95 strategic bombers, three Su-24 front-line bombers (one of them was shot down by Turkish F-16) and one Su-34 attack. In fighter aircraft, losses amounted to: two MiG-29 fighters and two MiG-31 interceptors. Also, the An-12 military transport received serious injuries.
      So now record the Tu-95, Mig-29, Mig-31 in bad aircraft? But on these types there are fewer flights than the Su-24.
      Then there are complex planes requiring laborious maintenance, strict in flight. But this is not a reason to abandon them and fly only on simple ones! All development in the world goes to complication.

One fell in 2006 - it seems like the compressor blade collapsed, the hydraulic line was destroyed by a fragment and the car became uncontrollable along the roll - the pilots are alive. The second - in 2008 - I don’t know the details. And one in 2010 - rolled out in the Irkutsk lane, the nose rack was broken, the pilots died. In 2007, fighters were put on the same airfield.

    As for the aircraft itself - I remember, in the magazine "Youth Technology" for the 95th year I read a review about domestic fighter-bombers. Then in service were still the Su-17, MiG-23B, MiG-27, MiG-25RB and, of course, Su-24. Already then it was said about difficult times for front-line bomber aircraft. What to do with these aircraft (Su-24) now? Perhaps this is not the most emergency aircraft in history. But what is there is enough in abundance. Other planes crashed, but even taken together, they are probably inferior to one Su-24. I remember as before, as soon as they say something in the news about the plane crash, you immediately think that we are talking about the Su-24. I must admit that this aircraft is far from the most successful in terms of reliability. Given that the machines are far from the newest, it is necessary to switch to the Su-34 as quickly as possible. In principle, if all 24th is now put into reserve until 180-200 Su-34s accumulate, no disaster will happen. There are already more than a hundred of them, despite the fact that the new planes have greater combat effectiveness. Yes, and there are doubts that as many as 140 cars remained in flight condition, as indicated in the article. I remember a couple of years ago, information came from several sources at once that there were 120 aircraft. And they are gradually being removed from service. Last year they shot all 24th without the "M" index. Where did another 20 cars come from?

    Many have a reaction to air crashes in the style of: - If you don’t have a dog, your neighbor will not poison her. Immediately write off and ban these old planes and replace them with new ones. And then this "old" flies 20-25 years. The same story was with civil aviation. As if Boing and Airbas production aircraft have a life expectancy and less crash. Such people need to understand that everyday life’s standard of the ordinary person’s resource doesn’t quite suit airplanes. Because the things he uses change much faster. A new model of the car comes out every 3 years, and the same iPhone once every half a year. And everywhere pours in my ears: It is necessary to change! What are you using old stuff! After all, two weeks ago a new one was released in exchange for the stargo, purchased by the way less than a year ago.

        Well, it’s so good that you remembered about it. No one knew. Strong people are wild people. You could say from plow. Sopromats did not read.
        Read for fun about the resource. How is it measured, in what units. And what control procedures are needed.
        For example:
        1 This bulletin informs the airlines of the Russian Federation that Tu-154M aircraft are installed:
        1.1. Assigned resources - 30000 flight hours or 15000 flights or life - 20 calendar years.
        1.2. Resources prior to the 1 repair - 10000 flight hours or 4000 + 150 flights or service life - 6 calendar years, based on normal climatic conditions (or 4 years in tropical climatic conditions);
        1.3. Overhaul resources - 10000 flight hours or 4000 + 150 flights or service life - 6 calendar years, based on normal climatic conditions (or 4 years in tropical climatic conditions);


        On combat aircraft - the same thing. Only under the bar. In the Internet, it does not roll.

        It depends on how many hours it flies during this time, takeoff and landing cycles and supersonic flights. In addition, it is not known in which year the aircraft was manufactured. In any case, I doubt that throughout the 90s he wound flying hours. Most likely, for the most part, he stood at the airport, like most of our aviation.

The Central Bank is independent of all, its money does not go to the budget, teachers' salaries and the purchase of S-400.

    If the number of strikes and, accordingly, combat sorties has so sharply increased, can it make sense to increase the grouping of our airborne forces in Syria? Both in the number and nomenclature of aircraft, and in the number of technicians. Extra experience will not hurt them at all. If the Khmeimim base is overloaded, then it is quite possible for the Su-25 and helicopters to be moved closer to the center. for example, at Tiyas airbase.

      in any army everything has a price and iron is much more expensive than the operator as a rule - take for example a pilot su 35 or f 22 - airplanes are many times more expensive than the pilot’s life (insurance upon death) + training cost + salary - this is the economy of war. But the cost of the commandos is much more than the weapons that he uses - because such soldiers are really valuable - they using relatively cheap means can bring quite large losses to the enemy.
      Do not forget that we are talking about a professional army where a person sells his life literally for money - and the officers in the Soviet army were professionals (contractors) - so that all the guys can be counted in money.

    everything is true in the article, it’s not written in the technique, but in the ability to master this equipment and in aviation, the possession of the equipment is the work of technical personnel and a small percentage of pilots - because the machine costs hours to maintain and is much less in the air. Look at modern aviation, it is even more demanding in maintenance and there will be even more personnel on the working board - in the future we risk getting to the point where the main target of the attack will be not airplanes in the air, but personnel at the aerodrome - because without it airplanes cannot fly into the air - and the more modern the sides, the more highly qualified personnel are needed.
    And here the main point comes up - if we are fighting against the Papuans and the probability of losing service personnel is small, then this approach helps to create modern complex machines, but when the enemy is technically at the same level, then attacks on the airfield (maintenance personnel) will be in any case and there will be personnel losses which means that the planes will be fun and the more complex the board, the more they will be on the ground and not in the air.
    THAT there is a conclusion that it is necessary to seek a balance in the complexity of servicing the speed of training of personnel and pilots.

    Have you personally tried to count? Here is the source data. With the serial production of Su-24 aircraft, it takes about three months to create one instance.

      Of course I tried, we consider the cost of the pilot - life insurance in case of death + the cost of training the pilot + salary for the period of his work - we get the cost of the pilot. If you know all these indicators, then calculating how much the pilot costs is not a problem, but I think there are clearly not millions of bucks.
      And airplanes usually cost millions of dollars and the most advanced airplanes even hundreds of millions.
      And yes, I talked about the price of an airplane and a pilot, and not about the time of construction and preparation. And pilots should always have more planes - simply because when conducting combat operations for round-the-clock sorties, you need several crews on board - as was the case in Syria.
      So you do not have to worry about the fact that the pilots will not have enough sides to end faster. Well, do not forget that with heavy losses in military equipment, its use as a rule either decreases or ceases.
      So the cost of any warrior can be calculated on a calculator - at least now when we have a professional army.

      5-6 years you took this a little ... (I think by the way, first of all, therefore, we will go to drones) - but it still doesn’t solve the “human factor” - drones also need to be prepared and maintained, and the “airplane technician” is being prepared no less than pilot ... So the demon of pilots can still do, but it’s unlikely to be without us ... ;-)

    I am an aerodynamic physicist, a pensioner, and have been leading an aircraft modeling club since 1998. I realized that modern children can’t handle traditional models with internal combustion engines, therefore, having made 4 inventions, I developed a model line acceptable for the modern world, but it was not liked by eminent sportsmen-aircraft modellers, and therefore the authorities from education. The result is to see a child launching a do-it-yourself model IMPOSSIBLE, even on the Internet, the exception is my site http://fanplan.ru/ And this is one of the main sources of a shortage of aircraft engineers.

    Well, the circus and more. When not bothering even with approximately realities, the boys come up with their theories and try to defend them. laughing
    Young man, write on your forehead that the most valuable thing on any plane is a trained pilot.
    The price of an airplane, in modern times, is a conditional and inflated amount expressed in a certain amount of colored cut paper.
    The true price of an airplane is aluminum, magnesium, titanium, steel, etc., which is required to build, and time to process.
    It’s more difficult to calculate the price of a pilot:
    - Firstly, women do not give birth immediately ready for flight training. a child needs to be born, raised, learned before 17 recognizes him fit for flight training
    - secondly, studying at a college at a college is very expensive and also takes time
    - thirdly, having started the development directly to the development of the very expensive aircraft in part, the pilot, among other things (fuel, ground handling, etc.), generates its resource. Thus, the cost of the aircraft is transferred to the pilot in the form of experience (about simulators and do not stutter, they are not able to replace real flights, they only help), which becomes much more expensive than the aircraft itself.
    - fourthly, time for the production of aircraft can be reduced, automated, cheapened. In the preparation of pilots, this will not work.

      and you laid out on the shelves the cost of the pilot that you still need. and if you consider it so primitive as you that a woman should give birth to so on and so on. That damn plane also needs to be designed then to develop all the components and assemblies to put it all together then try to fix all the jambs after which create a new serial model for which MO will pay grandmas and give the dough for the organization of serial production - and after the organization of serial production we get an airplane standing in a hangar that even with a pilot will not fly anywhere because operation requires a set of maintenance measures and a staff of technicians with engineers - all this costs such astronomical money that the pilot of all this just nothing and he just izmeryaetsya money.
      And you stop evaluating everything with children's values ​​and fairy tales from books that the pilot is the most important thing on the plane - yes the pilot is the most important thing on the plane - but without the plane, the pilot is a foot soldier - a very expensive foot soldier who doesn’t know how to fight even at the level of a sergeant who contracted millions of rubles. So if without snot the plane is primary - because the pilots make money for pilots and it’s much easier and cheaper to train them than to build a bunch of spare planes and keep them. The days of the Second World War were long ago when cars cost a penny and when the pilot really was valuable simply because the aircraft burned in dozens under each of the experienced pilots - now the plane is gold - often a modern plane uses and carries such ammunition (not nuclear) whose price is more than the cost of the pilot himself - And you damn about women 17t years of preparation - kindergarten is the older group.
      It is difficult to calculate the price of a pilot only if there is no system for the selection and education of these same pilots and when there are no specific numbers, how much does it cost, and now everything is there and having specific numbers that I mentioned above, it’s easy to consider the cost of a pilot for the Moscow Defense Ministry, so to speak.
      And there is no need here to tell tales about caring for people, etc., and in military affairs, the primary task is to fulfill the assigned combat mission and people with appliances in it are consumables and both of these consumables cost money.
      And about the price of an airplane, which is estimated in colored cut paper — I shouted shkolo from the heart))) at least for a second, think about how much time and money you need to create a modern airplane — I'm talking about the equipment and specialists who should create it — it's not a pilot for you airplane (driver) - here you need to think with your head, and not just one person, but hundreds and thousands of hard workers in the factories that all the engineers designed there to implement.
      Without a good modern airplane, the pilot is just a bad fucking infantryman and the trouble is that at least sit down but the plane will not create a flock of pilots for 3-4 for not 10 years — well, perhaps, it is a maize)) but to train pilots for 5-6st years or even faster You can from any young man - you understand the difference - which is actually more expensive. It is not a question of a pilot to do it - as it was during the Second World War when there were not enough planes to prepare their packs, especially considering that the plane burned in packs as well. In WWII, there was simply a natural selection of pilots who better survived, but then the planes were not as endlessly golden as now. Yes, maybe now the pilot is more expensive than during the Second World War, yet for the preparation, more aircraft are needed, although they became automated, but still they began to perform more functions - in vain in some even two pilots. And that means why on some planes there are two pilots — yes, it’s just not because it would be difficult to do everything alone — it’s very expensive to create such a fire control system that one pilot could handle — because it’s cheaper to train another pilot who will take on some of the functions - i.e. replace the on-board system

    Well, if you bother to call me "shkololo", then let's open the cards. And we will evaluate how competent anyone is in this matter.
    This is me.

      And what is your competence in the development of airplanes or in organizing the Air Force or children's judgments that the most important thing in the Air Force is airplanes - this is the most important soldier in the infantry - because this is the main consumable - albeit incomparably cheaper than the pilot but also having his own the price.
      Throw that you this kindergarten - this is not a theory, this is reality, but you probably live in a fictional world where a soldier is the main value - there are no soldiers, this consumable was and will be - there are expensive soldiers there are cheap tasks of a soldier to control weapons, whether it’s an automatic machine a tank or an airplane - and each type of armament costs money just as much as a soldier - just like ensuring infantry and air force combat worth money but incomparable - but the effectiveness of weapons is incomparable.
      Well, the last one is that it would be clear that the technology steers (the loot is convertible through scientific developments into equipment) - we recall the Strategic Missile Forces troops - the pilots or ship commanders or the commanders of mine launchers are the most important there - of course there is the most expensive and important missile weapon there I am a nuclear warhead, the cost of which, although high, is that each such missile will perform such a task that no infantry battalion will be able to perform; no airplane; no pack of tanks - and this weapon will fulfill this task with guarantee.
      It is a reality that the whole army is built on a dough in any country of the world, every soldier costs money - you just translate the soldier’s skills into relative skills in civilian life. Suppose an infantryman is a loader or a janitor, and a strategic pilot or a nuclear submarine commander is a research fellow at the Rosatom Nuclear Research Center - each has his own competence, each has his own level of knowledge, each has his own salary, and naturally is important for his industry.
      So the soldiers are all worth the money and therefore they are paid different salaries - and in the event of the dismissal of a soldier-soldier (well, he died for example) they hire a new one - that’s all.
      And do not tell tales about preparation and the rest of this nonsense here - you will tell your children. Thank God that in the army, as in life, people live, develop, work, serve, reach certain heights and retire. And this whole system has been worked out for centuries and I haven’t come up with this theory now - a soldier costs money.
      If I explain to you inaccessibly or you simply cannot understand that a soldier is worth the money - that is, for example, PMCs are, for example, contracts for the protection of let's say airspace like in NATO countries when all sorts of small countries that cannot allow (due to dough) the Air Force simply pay others countries for that. There are the same banal mercenaries who fight in hot spots all these guys cost money - in the same PMCs there are agreements where a warrior is evaluated. Another example is the UN military missions where warriors from different countries of the world work from infantry to pilots — these guys also have a hundred dollars of money, their life (if it is a pilot, a private soldier and an army) and their salary.
      So dear man, you first understand the reality and then tell tales here that the soldier is priceless - it’s priceless for your mother and for any employer, whether it is the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the Pentagon, PMCs, or all kinds of military organizations, you are an employee (consumable) costs money and must bring a certain profit to the hiring organization.
      Well, instead of the empty lines that you write here, try to tell how your military system works in the world.
      I’m not going to crawl into the subtleties of pilot training - it’s not interesting to me — it’s banal mechanics — it would be loot to prepare no question.
      And yes, the fact that you are a helicopter pilot does not mean anything about your competence in organizing the Air Force - it’s the same if the driver judges the organization of the transport enterprise based on its driver’s knowledge of which pedals to press and where to put the solarium.
      I just painted everything in the form of money because any modern army is first of all money, but of course you can stay in your childhood fantasies that the army is something more than working for money for money. You still say that war is not a business)))

    in any army everything has a price and iron is much more expensive than the operator as a rule - take for example a pilot su 35 or f 22 - airplanes are many times more expensive than the pilot’s life (insurance upon death) + training cost + salary - this is the economy of war. But the cost of the commandos is much more than the weapons that he uses - because such soldiers are really valuable - they using relatively cheap means can bring quite large losses to the enemy.
    Do not forget that we are talking about a professional army where a person sells his life literally for money - and the officers in the Soviet army were professionals (contractors) - so that all the guys can be counted in money.

    I am for replacing old equipment, but only when it is justified. And against brainwashing based on lies and colorful bubbles.

    Firstly, it is necessary to distinguish between old equipment, as having exhausted its resource, and old equipment based on the initial release of the base model. Already here they often lie to us, replacing one thing with another. And using emotional impressions, scaring with facts of disasters.

    Secondly, enough lies in the customized advertising flow of the entire Pogasyan campaign to sell the Su-2. Precisely with riding on the ears (that is, lying).
    It does not replace the Su-24M*, it does not replace it. The Su-34 has inherent fundamental design flaws for an attack aircraft for precision work against ground targets, such as a flexible airframe.
    The Su-34 does not do what the Su-24M can do, and will NEVER be able to do it. Work at ultra-low altitudes with “licking” of the terrain. For this purpose, the Su-34 is simply stillborn.
    Another lie is that the Su-34 is “new”, as opposed to the Su-24 “old”. Of course, the plane, which began flying in 91, is very new. As for the “old” Su-24, which must be written off, because the old one is demagoguery that affects shkolota on the Internet. Which is not aware of the Mi-8*, Mi-24*, and if we take the Americans, there are many more examples of old things that fly and will fly.
    And in the end, custom swindlers, stop lying about the fact that the Su-34 hit the radar in Georgia in 2008, enough! There were 34 Su-2s, they carried out electronic warfare and did not hit anyone. The radar hit the Su-24M, it is known when. This blatant lie is generally annoying - when I see an article screaming about the Su-34 and radar in Georgia, it is immediately clear that the article is from bots.

    Su-34 - let it live and develop. But so far it hardly flies, but is only promoted. For one hour of a combat flight - a hundred articles on the Internet with its advertising. This is just an average bomb carrier, nothing more. And considering that it carries a load no greater than the Su-24 and the very old F-15, it is very mediocre.

    But I really wanted to see a replacement for the Su-24M. but not pushing him out with all your might, which looks like sabotage.
