The President proposed to think about the creation of a supersonic passenger aircraft

125
The Russian President watched the demonstration flight of a new Tu-160M “Pyotr Deynekin” strategic bomber (missile carrier), named after the former commander-in-chief of the Russian Air Force. During a visit to the Kazan aircraft factory them. Gorbunova, Vladimir Putin noted that for Russian airspace (the air transport market) would be the creation of a modern supersonic passenger aircraft.





RIA News cites the statement of the President of Russia:
Tu-144 why he quit production - the ticket had to correspond to some average salary in the country. And now the situation is different. Now large companies have appeared that could use this aircraft. Civilian model based on the Tu-160 was relevant. We fly faster to New York than from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok.


Recall that the supersonic Soviet passenger aircraft Tu-144 was developed in the Tupolev Design Bureau in the 1960s. The first flight made 31 December 1968 of the year. At the same time, operation began only in 1975. In June, 1978 was retired for the carriage of passengers for a variety of reasons, including economic ones.

The head of UAC, Yury Slusar, answered the president’s statement. According to him, the corporation has a project of a supersonic long-range airliner.

For reference on the Tu-160M, on the basis of which a passenger version of a supersonic airliner could be created:
Tu-160M - the largest aircraft with a variable sweep wing, one of the most powerful in the world fighting machines. A modernized information management system will be installed on the upgraded aircraft, the advantage of which is the possibility of collecting, processing and displaying flight information in a single system; flight navigation equipment, an on-board communication complex, an automatic on-board control system, an onboard radar station, an electronic countermeasure complex will be updated; the complex for fuel management and control and centering, engine management system will be improved.

        My question is. PAK YES, as I understand it, they are going to make subsonic, but civilian distant supersonic - somehow does not fit with the history of aviation in the USSR and the Russian Federation. It seems to me that PAK YES will still be supersonic. bully
        Only for the oligarchs and the rich is such a supersonic aircraft. It can create its own niche in the market. Offers from others are not visible. But here only the size needs to be made smaller, in my opinion, than the Concord or Tu-144. Airlines serving the rich, large companies and corporations, etc. become the main customers for such an aircraft - it may have some commercial success. hi

          The answer to your question is simple. So much money was poured into the restoration of production that if you produce only 10 boards, then they turn out to be just gold. Looking for what else you can use existing production capabilities. Maybe the idea is not the most economical, but logical in its own way. Of course, it is more reasonable for the Russian economy to build subsonic passenger airplanes and saturate at least the domestic market with them, while at the same time lowering ticket prices to make air travel affordable.

      Well, maybe it’s not necessary like a Tu-144 (obviously, people won’t rush into it), but for any rich Pinocchio you could make a liner for 20-30 seats. Let grandmas pay and fly. good

      You can try as you like. Do you have any examples when, due to some circumstances, one well-known airline stopped serving passengers, is not enough? A ticket can cost less under socialism. In a capitalist country, profits (even more than before) fall into the pocket of the capitalist.

      The cost of tickets with us is robbery.
      How do others carry passengers and expand?
      Example - Before the new year, I flew from Krasnodar to Frankfurt on the Main with a transfer in Istanbul. The ticket was bought through, hand luggage - 8 kg, luggage - 20 kg. And all this for 84 euros. The course was a little less than 70. Total - even 7000 rubles did not pay. The airline is Turkish, I will not advertise, the planes are all A-320, new, clean, comfortable.

        It’s cheaper to feed the passenger once again in flight than to spend a lot of money on developing something fast and supersonic, which in general didn’t matter to anyone. It is clear that in the 60s, two world systems were measured, who has more and faster. Moreover, the same Concord was more exotic for the rich than a workhorse for airlines. And the last disaster, "Concord", served as a good reason to decommission them.

        Direct alteration, if possible, will be very doubtful in the operation of airlines. If you make a supersonic airliner, then you need to do it exactly as a passenger one and we have the basis for this. With all the comments on the operation of the Tu-144, flight range, fuel consumption, a crew of test pilots. But most importantly, the price of its purchase, operation and tickets should not greatly exceed those for a subsonic aircraft.

    Again the same rake to attack, which we attacked with the Tu-144 and the French with Concord? 99,9% of passengers will prefer to fly from Moscow to Vladik in 9 hours for 15 thousand rubles, than in 5 hours for 100 thousand rubles. In conventional airplanes, 200 economy-class seats usually have 8 business-class seats, and even then they are not completely full. Here you have an indicator of future demand for tickets for supersonic planes, especially since business travelers and those who fly for the money of the employer will still be required to take tickets for subsonic planes, as they now require to take tickets to economy class seats. Even if they begin to subsidize these flights from the budget, as we and the French did, what is the point of starting this whole black hole for money?

Tu-144 stood nearby, there Tolya Bravo (also the head of the NII-33 laboratory) checked the operation of the computer in the VNPK-144 equipment. I went to him, took off my boots and went to the cockpit (as expected). Anatoly and I are working, setting tests. Suddenly we hear from behind the question: "What are you doing here?" We turned around, worth Tupolev. He recognized me and I began to explain with Tolya. What is this new equipment and the pilot will now during the flight will display a dot of information on the map where the plane flies. Tupolev became interested, sat down to us. We demonstrated this information to him on tests. He congratulated us, and then quietly said: "Well .......... you are with her." Then he smiled and said: "Just kidding."

    A lot of research has been done on this subject, including cost / effectiveness assessment and human adaptation to flight in a supersonic passenger aircraft. The standard distance between seats in an airplane is 32 inches. If you double this distance, then such a chair can be laid out in an almost horizontal position. You can sleep in such a chair. And people often want to sleep, and the duration of sleep somewhere coincides with the average duration of a flight in an ordinary long-haul airplane. The price of a flight in 64 inches doubles, essno. But it's still a lot cheaper than supersonic flight. Plus you do not have, well, very high costs for research and development, testing and so on. But in general, people are already pretty good at carrying long flights over long distances.

    The civilian model based on the Tu-160 was relevant. Not relevant. The size of the fuselage will allow it to be transported for a sufficiently small number of passengers. What is not payable. Moreover, it is unrealistic to equip a passenger in a military vehicle nowadays. Crazy acceleration, as a result of which is overload. The swan is not suitable for processing into a passenger. First of all, this is a combat vehicle. We need to do something else. We have some progress. They will give the go-ahead. It will probably be the go-ahead.

    Tu-160 in our time is a complete anachronism with its supersonic and ideas of the 70s of the last century, and here is another option to build a civilian. Go to the KLA already choked with saliva from the prospect of sawing 6 years of kettlebell for a good salary.

    Two moldovas with a two-handed saw (specially blunted) will take up the process of cutting weights directly. To their legitimate question, “but for sho?”, They will be explained to them, saying that their fellow tribesman at the VO was already worried about the Russian woman!

      judging by your subtle humor, you were a sergeant in the warehouse where the weights are

    Tu-144 why he quit production - the ticket had to correspond to some average salary in the country. And now the situation is different. Now large companies have appeared that could use this aircraft. Civilian model based on the Tu-160 was relevant. We fly faster to New York than from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok.


    Now, of course, a person with an average salary is not ready to fly, he wouldn’t die of hunger.
    Give the price of tickets an adequate and restore the airfield network.

    Well, purely theoretically:
    - One hour of flight of the TU-160 missile carrier (without combat use) costs, according to official data for 2008, 580 thousand rubles (about $ 23,3 thousand).
    distance “London-New York” Concord overcame in ~ 3h
    Total: 580 * 000h = 3um 1 thousand rubles
    Let's say a maximum of 100 places, total 17 400 rubles per ticket ....... even a little, considering that now the price is ~ 30-40 thousand rubles
    Correct if not right

      One hour of flight of the MiG-23M fighter (according to unofficial data) cost 10000 rubles of the USSR, Su-24 - 20000 rubles. (The dollar was worth 0,60-0,90 rubles.).
      The relationship between cost and ticket price is most likely stochastic.

    I did not understand the subject of the dispute! sad The Tu-160 is not a supersonic airplane; it travels far and short for supersonic! Only in the air defense breakthrough mode. So, if the collective "passenger" is a collective farm, then only from scratch! fellow
