The prototype of Russia's first electric convertoplane with take-off mass 1,5 t will appear by 2019 year. This was reported on Wednesday in the press service of the holding "Helicopters of Russia" (part of Rostec). The basis for the development of the machine will be the unmanned tiltrotor VRT30.

The design office BP-Technologies (included in Russian Helicopters) plans to create a prototype of Russia's first electric convertiplane with take-off weight 2019 t by 1,5.
- Said in the holding.



The prototype of the first in the Russian electric convertoplan will appear by 2019 year.


The press service noted that the advantage of the aircraft, made according to the convertoplan, is that their operation does not require a runway. In addition, thanks to the turning mechanism of screws, the tiltrotor is able to develop high speed and perform tasks in the hover mode.



Today, together with our partners from the SuperOx company, we are developing a new flying laboratory for the convertoplane, in the onboard cable network of which high-tech superconductivity technologies will be used, which will have a positive effect on the weight and size characteristics of the prototype
- said Andrei Boginsky, Director General of the Russian Helicopters holding, whose words were quoted in the press service.

In July, Viktor Bondarev, who then held the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Aerospace Forces, announced that Russia was engaged in the creation of military convertiplanes and heavy drones, without specifying which models are in question, reports TASS.

      The speed record for a helicopter is approximately 450 km / h. The V-22 flies a little over 500 km / h. Moreover, it is many times more expensive and more difficult to manufacture. High operating overhead.

          And now in the near-lamented, this is an achievement ... We don’t know how to fight in a new way using information technology, UAVs fly only along the route and write to the internal drive, in real time they work only up to 100 km, and only give information to the remote control, not with which systems are not interfaced ... Advanced systems shoot only with direct fire or at fixed targets .. There are no targeting systems even based on UAVs that operate in real time ... When conducting offensive operations, we don’t see any binoculars ... Everywhere we plug people with holes and tanks, they’re not fighting like that anymore, hence the predicted losses in the event of a ground operation are uncountable ... Enough?

        This prototype was able to reach a speed of 460 kilometers per hour.

        making a helicopter fast is very difficult, now Sikorsky is doing it, there are physical limitations there they can be solved only by co-alignment + computer control ...
        and a tiltrotor can be fast, like an airplane, everything depends on the fantasies and skills of engineers, osprey the first - then everything will be cooler ...
        and and most importantly, it’s not even speed, but range - here, as it were, for helicopters to convertiplanes as to the moon ...

        Do not carry nonsense, ordinary helicopters fly at a speed of up to 200-300km and then with low load and high fuel consumption. And your "record" is set not on a helicopter, but on a hybrid aircraft that does not have a "type name of an aircraft", but it’s a helicopter + a pushing element (screw or jet propulsion). Calling this type of aircraft a helicopter is incorrect.
        As for the cost, then again remind me the cost of mass-produced high-speed military transport helicopters at a speed of 450-500km / h? Better yet, name the aircraft created according to the “helicopter + pushing element” scheme in the “military transport aviation” class with a payload of 5-15 tons. You will be surprised but there are none and do not plan to do it because of the too large and unstable load on the blades.

        Moreover, there is a way to overcome the main problem of increasing the horizontal speed of the helicopter - the zero lifting force of the retreating blade.
        For example, a coaxial design does not have this drawback.

          Let's take it together: a 450 km / h helicopter eats an order of magnitude more fuel than such a low-speed tiltrotor. The V-22’s request not to torment, it’s “the first damn thing,” so to speak, I feel sick of it - almost zero advantages at a sky-high price, it cannot be set as an example at all, unless it is an example: how not to make tilt-turns. The theoretical possibility of reducing fuel consumption by at least an order of magnitude and even with a 50-fold increase in maximum speed, while its cost should not rise above XNUMX%. Is such a task not worth the "dressing". Anti-advertising, unfortunately, still steers, something needs to be done with this.

              How do you reduce fuel consumption by an order of magnitude?

              Helicopter helicopter group operates on two functions: 1) to maintain the weight of the helicopter itself, 2) to ensure horizontal movement. In the airplane mode, the tiltrotor does not require the helipad to support the LHWP, the wing takes on this function, and the wing is not a simple airplane, but with a much higher aerodynamic quality, which is not possible on a regular plane, in addition to the flight mode, the aircraft itself is additionally required also take-off / landing modes, which there is no need for a tiltrotor. After all, a tiltrotor takes off in helicopter mode and the aerodynamic quality of its wings does not have the limitations that are present in a classic airplane. I think that I described in detail the essence of the differences, different aircraft working on different principles of flight / takeoff (landing). Horizontal flight of the tiltrotor requires just an order of magnitude lower engine power, it seems to me that this is the possibility of reducing traditional engines and the basic problem, and not the tiltrotor itself as a new aircraft (LAVVP).

          This is precisely the key concept of "counting" and everything has long been counted since the creation of ordinary helicopters. The problem is the blades, they undergo strong vibration, at a high speed of horizontal movement in the conceptual scheme “helicopter + pushing element” vibrations in the blades begin, only if in a regular helicopter these vibrations are stable then the above-mentioned scheme does not. Yes, you can create an aircraft according to the above scheme, but at the same time serious restrictions are imposed on the load of the blades, as a result of which they should be small (in length) and the most nasty thing for an aircraft should be minimal weight. All this makes the voiced scheme unsuitable for creating a "military transport aircraft" on its basis, but it is quite possible to create an "assault aircraft" similar to the ka-52 and mi-28.

          At the moment, on the basis of the information collected, I consider it most reasonable to use the “coaxial helicopter + pushing element” scheme for the assault LAVVP and the “convertiplane” scheme for the military transport LAVVP, or come up with something with the convertiplane scheme in the assault variation. But according to the latter, I don’t have any options yet.

    Worth it. The fact is that this tiltrotor uses electric motors, which eliminates almost all problems. Moreover, its mass is small and it is an unmanned vehicle.
