Israel abandoned American convertiplanes

Osprey converting gliders will not fully replace heavy military transport helicopters CH-53 in service with the Israeli army. According to the portal flightglobal.com, The Israeli Air Force refused to purchase convertoplanes and will choose between two models of heavy helicopters.

Back in 2014, the US Department of Defense asked Congress for permission to sell six Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey converters to Israel to equip Israeli units with special operations forces. A potential deal met with resistance from some Israeli military officials.

Israel abandoned American convertiplanes

Helicopter CH-53K King Stallion during the test.


October 13 became aware that the IDF officially "paused" the issue of purchasing army convertoplanes. Thus, in the competition for the replacement of obsolete CH-53 helicopters there are only two applicants - its newest modification, the CH-53K and the “flying car” Boeing CH-47 Chinook. At the same time, the Israeli Ministry of Defense has already shown interest in CH-53K.

CH-53K King Stallion is a heavy transport helicopter with a maximum take-off weight of almost 40 tons. It can carry over 12 tons of cargo on an external sling, and its cargo hold can accommodate up to 55 passengers. The crew of the helicopter is from two to five people - in addition to two pilots, it can be included in the composition of three arrows, providing circular protection, reports "Warspot".

    Osprey's tiltrotors will not be able to fully replace the heavy military transport helicopters CH-53 in service with the Israeli army. According to the portal flightglobal.com, the Israeli Air Force refused to purchase convertiplanes and will choose between two models of heavy helicopters.

    Somehow here one forum member was proving to me that these tiltrotopes are very successful and we will come to them too. And for me, it's an under-airplane helicopter.

              Lucky pilots that fell low and immediately helped. I wonder what is the reason? The miscalculation of the designer or the trifling assembly?
              And as for the purchase of a tiltrotor by Israel - their internal affair. Of course, it is beneficial for Israel to buy from the United States, even a little more expensive, but the value of an ally is worth it.
              But if there is a car with high accident rate - they won’t buy it for sure. They cherish their people.

          for the umpteenth time I’m looking at this picture and I think it was made by D ***** or made for D ******? This is in what a sick brain the idea came to compare the cost of OV-10 and B-52H? It would be nice if the CV-22B would be compared with the CH-53K, CH-47 and similar devices of the same application, but they are not even on the list! In general, insanity grows stronger fool

              The flight cost didn’t give up at all, and it was not calculated correctly, because the schedule does not indicate the number of flights, namely, service before and after flights takes the lion's share of expenses ...
              In the case of military transport aircraft with vertical take-off and landing, it is necessary to compare the cost of transporting T tons of cargo over a distance of N km. And all these pictures are nothing more than lobbying someone's interests.

                  Take the same osprey and strategic bomber, the service before and after the flight is the same for them, only the first one makes a 1t km flight, and the second one has a 10-20t flight, therefore, with the same amount of raid, the osprey will have MORE pre-flight and after-flight services . Therefore, a comparison of the cost of flying hours is incorrect for different aircraft. Yes, even comparing the same cost with the same aircraft for the intended purpose is incorrect, for example, where a transport helicopter needs to spend 2 hours, Osprey will cope for 1 hour. just due to twice the speed of flight. Therefore, the painted tablet above can be safely thrown into a bucket because it does not show anything!

                  Because in helicopters, fuel consumption increases more significantly with an increase in the transported mass in comparison with airplanes. Therefore, they carry either small but far or large but small distances. But for airplanes and convertiplanes, the difference in fuel consumption is not so great.

              Yes, we like to stomp that we need a fleet only from Su-27, and if you need a light fighter, it’s necessary as a f-16, they say it's cheap. And then it turns out that the savings are only 2 bucks, compared with f-18. Very obvious by the way.

                Deadlock becomes apparent, usually due to accidents and casualties. The era of airships ended in the death of Hindenburg, the era of rocket-planes ended in a Shuttle disaster, the death of the SM-5 ekranoplane was the first bell at the design stage, it turned out to be a toy unsafe, the Caspian Monster died in 1964, the Orlyonka accident happened in 1980, and the other was transported in 1974 turned upside down by the waves. A pure Stealth, ended his career in Yugoslavia, the current only with reduced radio stealth and no more. The air cushion was also killed by the operation, it’s expensive, the beaches for landing are limited, etc. Airships and ekranoplanes will work limitedly, but apparently there will never be widespread use.

                    The design of the f-117 and its coating were to make it completely invisible to the enemy radar. TTX its insignificant, everything is subject to invisibility. F-22, F-35 have a glider design that only reduces EPR, flight performance characteristics were not completely sacrificed for this. Therefore, of course, cars are inferior to normal fighters, but not catastrophically, like f-117.

                      There is and cannot be anything completely invisible. The F-117 was a breakdown of the pen, and its flat forms were due to the insufficient computing resources of computers at that time. Then, the development of computers made it possible to calculate subtle forms of a glider without sacrificing the performance characteristics of the aircraft itself. That's all.
                      The same could be observed, for example, with antenna designs for cell phones. When there were enough powerful and cheap computers, there were phones with built-in microstrip antennas with reduced transmitter power, which work no worse than huge external ones.

                        This is a drone. Very unpromising. The level of our bast shoes. It has research value. By and large it was necessary to start with him in front of the Shuttle. Diving into the atmosphere and using weapons (bomb bay, suspension) is utter stupidity. Any warhead is much stronger, more stable and reliable. And our recent statements about the threat to their space exploration, with pins, etc., you yourself understand are not afraid of either mobile systems or submarines, but only stationary. They do not give a disarming guarantee, but they give us a reason to put really real weapon systems, the same maneuvering nuclear units, into orbit.

                      this drone can hang in orbit for years and be used repeatedly. Roscosmos recently announced exactly the same nonsense about Falcon-9. And now, when he lost a huge market share and failed the Angara, he himself began to look for the Russian Ilon Mask.

                Shuttles are past. The scheme won, the descent vehicle by parachute. Work is underway on the soft landing of the launch vehicle stages by Mask. Entrance into the dense atmosphere of winged structures, with defective glued thermal insulation - heresy. To understand this, you can lose a bunch of high-class specialists and expensive cars, or you can make one automatic start and make sure, but the result is one. The scheme of entry into a dense atmosphere of a spherical capsule will be replaced by devices based on other physical principles.

And how well it all began in 1970, and Scat, and Squid, and Jeyran, well, and the Bison. Now there is a symbolic couple, they sold the Greeks and the Chinese to experiment and that's it, the topic is closed, and the good old-floating amphibious vehicles, amphibious platforms, etc. are relevant.

                  You are not looking for reasons there. A pillow vessel is not needed, because in 1991 the government, the KGB and the Ministry of Internal Affairs destroyed the USSR - they sold their homeland and their parents for money. The USSR needed these ships, but the Russians did not. About convertiplanes, I completely agree with you. They are too dangerous to operate even in calm weather.

                    We do not take the Chinese, they are not an indicator. However, NATO also refused pillows and ekranoplans did not. Largely seen enough of our experience. A pillow, rather their topic. We have a pair of Bison, there is Bora and Himself. For special operations come in handy, there are samples in the Ministry of Emergencies. And that’s all. We were sorry Buran for stupidity, although it must be admitted that a whole generation of Shuttles worked, rather the truth is on luck. We also missed the generation of pure stealth. Yes, there was a factor of lack of finance, but it was the lack of funding for dubious projects - one of the methods of survival of the topic. There were no breakthroughs and the projects degraded, and financing would only prolong the ogony. The same shuttles are the real pride of NASA, they had constant problems and accidents, but not disasters, their finances reached monstrous disasters. The same thermal tiles they constantly fell off, but rolled to a heap of corpses. This is the price of progress.

That is, while one such Osprey is built, it buys MOs, and the troops are rolled in, two or three helicopters can be made and used without retraining flight crews, techies, etc. That is another question, EXPEDIENCY.

        I’ll tell you that back in the shaggy 72 in the USSR, a convertiplane (vintoplan) -MI-30 was developed.

        In subsequent years, the development of the type of used power plant changed several times. Options with 2 and 3 TV7-117 engines or with two D-27 engines were considered. At the same time, the take-off mass of the Mi-30 was equal to 11, 20 and 30, respectively. At the initial stage, fundamental theoretical studies were carried out in the field of aerodynamics and dynamics, strength field, including calculations of some types of instability, natural oscillations of the apparatus, balancing characteristics, self-oscillations of the “air resonance” type, vertical autorotation modes, “flutter gondolas”, “chord flutter” " etc. The transport efficiency of the vintoplan, the mass of the carrier system were determined, the parameters of the propeller, tail and wing, the efficiency of the propeller, the parameters of the propeller blade and the voltage in it were selected. Developed a variety of options for the design of screws, transmissions, wings and other units.
        As a result, the creation of Mi-30 was included in the state armament program for 1986-1995 years. Unfortunately, in connection with the collapse of the USSR and the economic difficulties that have arisen, the Mi-30 screw-glider did not get out of the stage of analytical and design research. In the last year of the USSR, the OKB specialists designed the 3 of various screwplanes: Mi-30С, Mi-30Д and Mi-30Л, which had a payload of 3,2, 2,5 and 0,95 tons, respectively, and passenger capacity in 21, 11 and 7 people. The first 2 converters had the maximum take-off mass in the 13, t. They were planned to be equipped with power units from 2-x TV7-117 engines, and the third Mi-30Л (3,75 tons) with a power unit from 2-X AL-34. Work was done on the creation of combat options.

At that time, pioneer photon starships were “developed” with us and showed young artists at exhibitions! By the way, I myself believed in all this when in the 4th grade (1964) I read The Return of the Strugatskysmile I waited, I waited when we fly to the stars ... Yes, it’s clear I can’t wait for Mars ...

            So it was not really needed. There were other, more important tasks. For example, Caliber is not abandoned. Basalts, Mobile missile systems ..... Alligators, Night hunters, etc.

            Well, the USSR was one of the first ... wink
            In the prewar years in the USSR, at the Air Force Engineering Academy and the Moscow Aviation Institute, under the leadership of Boris Yuryev (author of the Yuryev helicopter automatic swashplate), many conceptual projects of helicopter-airplanes were put forward, including both various convertiplane projects and various flying saucer projects (curiously, Yuryev put forward his first project of a flying saucer back in 1921). However, among all these projects, “helicopter-airplanes” were mainly dominated by the popular at that time projects of aircraft with a vertical take-off position (that is, before take-off the plane was rotated 90 ° vertically, then it takes off in a helicopter and rotates 90 degrees and flies in an airplane). As for the convertiplanes, as an example of Yuriev’s projects, one can cite the concept of a biplane of a tandem scheme between which wings there should have been a pair of rotary screws. There was also a rotorcraft project in the literal sense of the word, which was supposed to have rotors located inside the wing (similarly, rotors were located at the Ryan-General Electric XV-5 jet). The closest to the classic convertiplanes was the 1934 project - the Sokol fighter with a rotary wing and a pair of propellers in gondolas, in other words having a classic look for both tilting and fighters of that era (with the exception of gondolas at the ends of the wing and the absence of a propeller on nose that looks like La-5). What is curious, despite the classic appearance, the gondolas did not carry engines under the project, and the engine (despite the appearance of the fighter of that era) should have been located behind the pilot's back. None of the projects of "helicopter-airplanes" Yuryev was never implemented, and in the best case, the projects reached only blowing models in the wind tunnel. In the post-war years, Yuriev and his students continued to work on creating concepts, but, like in the pre-war years, not a single project was implemented

            The first tiltrotor project was developed in detail ..
            The very first detailed project of a convertiplane was P.1003 of the Wesserflug company, developed in Germany in 1938, by designers Rohrbach and Simon.

            By the way ...
            The tiltrotor, which is being developed by the Russian Helicopters holding as part of the Speed ​​project, made its first flight in Russia, the company said.

            Design work on the creation of a convertiplane began in 2015, and during this time significant results were achieved and the first stage of tests was carried out, during which the unmanned version of the aircraft made its first flight, said Alexander Okhonko, Director General of the VR-Technology Design Bureau.

            The report says that at the moment, the designers are faced with the task of determining the best layout scheme of the aircraft, as well as the search for the necessary technologies.

            The tiltrotor is equipped with a hybrid power plant and will have a speed of up to 500 km / h. In the future, it is planned to create a whole family of convertiplanes with various purposes and take-off weight. Companies in the oil and gas sector and various departments are showing interest in the development.

The tiltrotor perfectly competes with a helicopter at a range of over 1000 km. The carpenter does not need a scalpel, the surgeon does not need an ax. The tool is selected for work.

            I don’t agree, the “total time between failures” is out of place, how does it turn out if the osprey is used for delivery to prepared sites where the release of a jet stream does not tear off the surface and does not raise tons of dust, then it works fine, but as soon as it starts flying in the desert, the engine very quickly breaks down. Yes there are automation, tests, sensors, checks, etc. they prevent emergencies and as a result, the warehouses of the engines removed from the osprey are lying in warehouses, while they themselves are waiting for spare parts in the hangar. But sometimes it’s unlucky and we get an accident. And in any case, with such a process, the cost of maintenance increases due to checking and replacing the engines.

              To agree or not is up to you. But in any science there is no such thing as dust, stones and other obstacles. For this, the designer receives a salary in order to exclude what is harmful and can lead to accidents. Differences in temperature, pressure, humidity during flights at high altitudes also do not work to extend the life. And here it is not yet known who and what suffers more. Do not splurge. It will be right.

                I agree, they received a salary, but did it through one place. They could have made it simpler, more reliable and cheaper, but they decided to show off combining the engine, gearbox, screw and rotary nacelle into one block and got an increased accident rate as a result.

                  In order to criticize the decision of the designer, you need not only to understand the operation of the machine, but, MOST IMPORTANT- what he thought, why he thought so, by doing so and not otherwise. In other words, to get into his brain. You need to start thinking SAME. And only then you will understand where he made a mistake (as a constructor, I declare that this is done extremely rarely), or emphasized the not-so-important and correct option.
                  The work of the designer is not a whirlwind in empire and narcotic dreams. This tearing between millions of restrictions is impossible. A good car is only one in which a compromise has been successfully found, but with a precise choice of priority.

It is better to place them in the center of the wing. In this way, numerous problems of the dispute are solved both in terms of reliability and cost. For example, there is no jet jet downward, therefore refractory pads are unnecessary, the surface is not set on fire (landing in arid regions will not cause a fire), the turf does not break, and tons of dust do not rise into the air intake area. For example, higher protection from enemy fire (wing and fuselage protect the engine). For example, the engine life is higher (due to the installation of a system for filtering the air flow from dust and snow). For example, lower heat sensitivity of the outgoing gas stream and, as a result, more chances to get away from the rocket (due to the installation of cold air mixing systems. Cheaper production of aircraft (it is unnecessary to produce some kind of special engine, you can use existing helicopter engines). Higher scalability by increasing or decreasing the number and the quality of the engines when creating larger or smaller versions of the aircraft, and so on.

                      Any product, any solution, and not only in the field of aviation, but also in the economy (a strange comparison, is not it) have both strengths and weaknesses, like two sides of the same coin.

Having walked in parallel, you can understand WHY the designer did so.

      Hi Oleg.
      The CH-53K King Stallion helicopter is a continuation of the CH-53 lineup, which has been produced since 1964. The new modification is the largest and most "powerful" in the family of "Stallions" (from the English. Stallion - stallion). To date, four pre-production prototypes of the CH-53K have been assembled, which have passed a series of tests and transferred to the United States Marine Corps. The cost of the first two serial samples was $ 304 million.

    Somehow here one forum member was proving to me that these tiltrotopes are very successful and we will come to them too. And for me, it's an under-airplane helicopter.

    Just with Israeli territories and distances, the tiltrotor is the fifth leg, I feel like a mess. And so, it’s quite a promising direction, taking into account the range and speed against the helicopter.

    Internet (ARPANET) and TCP / IP are DARPA products. Until then, of course, there were other computer networks, but they were not decentralized and fault tolerant. Connecting two machines, of which one is the server and the second is the client, this is not the Internet at all

    The only thing the Americans did was commercialize one from their military networks. They manage to profit from ideas well, this cannot be taken away. However, similar military and scientific networks existed at that time in the USSR.
    The development of global data networks also began almost simultaneously in the United States and the USSR, in the early 60s. In the USA, Kleinrock and Liklider did this, in the USSR Harkevich.
    Therefore, if we can talk about some kind of US leadership in this area, then only in the field of commercialization for profit, what to expect from the USSR would be somewhat strange. Thanks to this commercialization, it is the US technology that has spread to the whole world, it can certainly be called a contribution to development, but these ideas are not exclusively owned by the USA, it could have been different if the USSR continued to develop.
