American F-35B pilots will work out a vertical landing on the deck of UDC "Wasp"

97
At the International Air Show in Singapore, representatives of the American delegation said that in 2018, for the first time, a universal landing ship of the Wasp project (Wasp) with an air wing consisting of several F-35B multi-purpose fighters would go on a long hike. This is a model of 5 generation aircraft, which are characterized by a short take-off and vertical landing.

In Singapore, representatives of the American delegation noted that this trip would be an excellent opportunity for the F-35B pilots to work out the skills of vertical landing on the ship's deck under various weather conditions.



American F-35B pilots will work out a vertical landing on the deck of UDC "Wasp"


From a statement by Major J. Peppers, a representative of the American delegation in Singapore, representing the 121 th Maritime Fighter Squadron:
In fact, we have few pilots who performed the actual vertical landing on the ship. For pilots who are accustomed to the usual landing on the deck, it is clearly not usual. But this should be an additional tool in our arsenal of opportunities.


Before you start training directly at sea, American pilots are taking off and landing practice using a simulator. This simulator and presented at the exhibition in Singapore, which runs from 6 to 11 February.

According to the American major, the pilots who were selected to train the vertical landings on the Wasp in the F-35B, have experience of similar landings when piloting the AV-8B Harrier (American attack vertical landing and ground attack aircraft) developed by the end of the 70-s.

    It seems to me that vertical take-off and landing at the moment have a little significant function.
    With large ammunition, it is more profitable to take off from acceleration ... to land with a vertical vector, too, like that what ... more pontus.

            You have a strange approach. Previously, we did not hesitate to copy good decisions in aircraft, boats, enemy tanks. They copied our solutions. They very competently approached the design of a mass aircraft. What prevents us from taking a closer look at their decisions? Swagger? I'm in a heart, my flag is behind me.

            for American money - why not buy it? No, weapons are not given to the Israelis for nothing, this contradicts the principles of a market economy, which the Yankees are adherents to. Arms to the Israelis are transferred for money. But the thing is that money for the purchase of weapons in the United States is given to Israel by the Americans themselves. Every year, Congress allocates huge sums to its Israeli friends with a targeted entry in the US budget. This is the so-called military assistance. Israel is obliged to spend funds received from the USA in the USA for the purchase of military equipment, spare parts, ammunition and equipment. Only a small part of the funds Americans are allowed to implement in Israel itself, and for strictly agreed projects

                specially for stupid I will emphasize: Annually, the Congress allocates huge sums to its Israeli friends with a targeted entry in the American budget. This is the so-called military assistance. I.e Israel will not spend anything from its military budget on the purchase of F-35. Because the money allocated by the United States should be spent on the purchase of American weapons.
                Washington to spend at least 10 billion dollars on free military aid to Israel in the next 38 years. Moreover, this time the USA demanded that all funds be spent exclusively on the purchase of American weapons (earlier, up to 1/3 they were allowed to spend on the purchase of weapons of other manufacturers - in particular, Israeli)
                The United States has been providing annual military assistance to Israel since 1987, with an average of $ 2 billion a year.

            Just agree that a normal-mode aircraft, thrown out by a catapult or even from a springboard, can take off in much worse weather - due to the fact that it has already translational motion, it has gained kinetic energy. But VTOL during take-off / landing / transitional mode does not have it, hangs, hangs and any gust of wind fend off the rudders. And at one not very wonderful moment their stock may not be enough - and shmyak on the deck or overboard. Normal plane has bоgreater limits on the "bad weather", so to speak. Up to those in which the enemy cannot use his weapon either - the situation is stalemate, "hid under an umbrella" in anticipation of the sun. VTOL in this respect is more tender - i.e. his flights will cease at a much lower score

              Not quite so. The deck of the UDC is quite long and the SVP aircraft can take off “in the plane,” using lifting engines. And after the capture of a more or less large bridgehead, part of the SVP can fly to the bridgehead itself and already work from the ground

                This function was understood as vertical take-off and landing. And that is the absolute truth. By the way, how will you plant in severe weather? The finisher will catch the normal deck, but the VTOL does not have a hook, and the UDC does not have a finisher. Whatever you say, but a normal deck aircraft has much less weather restrictions.
                For normal deck aircraft, the weather restrictions are almost the same. like land aircraft. In VTOL - like in helicopters.

Bismarck drowned the pride of the Royal Fleet Hood and damaged the battleship and the British threw half the fleet to destroy it. Tirpitz also paid back what is the convoy PEU KJ2 and the British also threw a lot of effort into destruction too.

                    In general, the United States always has two opponents - Russia and China. And now let’s recall the most important feature of AOG - this is “invisibility”, that is, a ground airport is more or less easy to figure out and “beat”, then AUG goes around and does everything to find it. But here’s the problem - both we and the Chinese already have satellites that see this AUG and forever "flocks of missiles." good And for all the multi-level protection of the AUGs, they are still much inferior to what can be built up around an ordinary airfield and more ammunition. Therefore, to “push through” the AUG’s defense even without cascading detonation, special ammunition is more than possible, and with the aforementioned method, in general, the AUG is a simple defenseless target. negative Even all two low-power detonations make 100% illumination of the entire electronic and scanning ones and due to the “flash” the missiles will jump out already under the reaction of the “defense turrets themselves (flaks), but those and old ones had little chances, but against modern and none at all. But five, we and China are not obliged to try to drown the Americans with TNT, and one or two missiles, even with a small special charge from the AOG, will leave only melted aluminum slowly sinking to the bottom of the hail lol

      It seems to me that vertical take-off and landing at the moment have a little significant function.
      With large ammunition, it is more profitable to take off from acceleration ... landing with a vertical vector is also like that ... more to a pontus.

      So he takes off from acceleration, and sits down vertically. And here there are no show-offs, it’s enough to recall what happens with a classic landing with a cable break.

            Right there YesFirst, it will be done by the individual units that are regularly provided for in their squadrons for autonomous actions directly from the combat formations of the landing force. If necessary, the others will be pulled up if all the conditions for working from the coast are created. So agree or not, but I think that the fighting units with such take-off / landing capabilities are easier to use in the destroyed infrastructure of a captured bridgehead under enemy opposition. And such a bridgehead can be very far from the coast (for example, marines (reinforced by Cobra helicopters) appeared first under Kandahar). -35. I’m talking about everything ..? And to the fact that they (the USA) act like the latest villains, they’re not suckers for sure. And even when they entered Afghanistan they first “processed” it with bombs and rockets for a month only then they created the first bridgehead. And against the serious enemy, as you say, the same algorithm will be applied, but they can bomb not for a month as Taliban, but for six months. And not right on all sails they will trample on mines and under anti-ship missiles, and they will act due to the safety circuit that the fleet forces must provide for them.
            P.S. But this is only one of the functions, and the main task of such ships is to quickly eliminate threats to SUSHYA and provide access through the World Ocean for projecting forces anywhere in the world.

A couple of times they came across us, or with our support, and both times received mardas. Therefore, they would not have enough brains to abandon this madhouse and bring their Army to a common denominator.

      They, in fact, will fly. F-35s have long been baptized in SKVP - a plane with a short take-off and landing. Of course, he can technically sit upright, with a small load and take off - but this is really a show off, more suitable for an Air Show. It is better to save fuel and take more ammunition. The benefit of the deck of almost all UDC allows a short take-off run (and some ships and a springboard have)

          I advise you to pay to the TTX "Harrier" GR.3 (AV-8A) (1970)
          Combat radius: vertical take-off and
          combat load 1360 kg .......92 km , do not worry, this is not a typo))
          But when taking off with a take-off run of 180 m and combat
          a load of 2270 kg ..... the bag gets off as much as 230 km!
          In!
          Strength!
          Let me remind you Yak38 is also 1970.
          Its combat radius is 195-250 km (according to various sources)
          You can take the first deck "Sea Harrier FRS.1 (1978), its combat radius .....as much as 130km!
          This is a whole 24 minutes flight.)))
          And with a minimum combat load.
          You do not like the 1978 "Sea Harrier"?
          Take Sea Harrier FA.2 1988.
          Its combat radius ... what a misfortune, too 135km?!
          Here is the ass!
          Let me remind you that in 1988 the Yak141 already flew and the Yak 38 began to be scrapped.
          It's just that when they grind their teeth about the Yak 38, they forget to clarify that this is the data for GDP (vertical take-off and landing), palming off take-off and take-off into comparison.
          It’s enough to look at the empty mass of “Sea Harrier” and its maximum for the GDP regime
          6374 kg (empty)
          8620 (max take-off) with GDP.
          we have 2246 kg for fuel and BN.

            What did you want to say? That Harrier was also a mast guard aircraft? So everyone knows that.
            The power plant on it was more promising. His trouble is that the British for so many years have not been able to create a more powerful engine. The old man "Harrier" retired (having survived, however, his Soviet brother)

              13 February 2018 13: 44
              The power plant on it is a dead end.
              Example Boeing X-32.
              This is a copy of Harrier’s circuitry with only a very powerful engine.
              The deadlock in the Harrier scheme was originally laid as a result of the fact that his nozzle was bifurcated. And in a curved nozzle you will never get supersonic.
              The bloated afterburners on the latest version did not help him either.
              After which he was sent to ... a museum.
              This was a mistake in Yak38.
              Although he had a motor from the MiG23, he could not give out supersonic sound.
              Due to the very large bottom resistance and as a result of loss of traction, approximately 600 kg.
              Everything turned out exactly. Like "Harrier"
              Second, the Harrier scheme requires the location of the thrust vectors as close to the central district as possible.
              Another dead end.
              On the Yak141 (F-35), this is not so critical, but it also led to a two-beam fuselage scheme. In order to allow the PMD to be moved closer to the central heating center.
              There was no one willing to leave for the “flying wing” or “duck” scheme.
              So, your Harrier is what ours simply did not do in the Yak 39 project, seeing what happened in the form of "AV-8B Harrier II"
              He has a particularly significant take-off weight with GDP and ordinary take-off - a difference of 5 tons! That is, he could execute GDP practically being empty.
              The Britons and the United States scooped up a bunch of $ billions and finally got this AV-1985B in 8 and already in 1990 realized that it was shit and launched the program JSF

                The Yak38i 141 circuit is a thrust vector longitudinally spaced from the centerline.

              True, from the American in the X-32 there are only wings, and everything else is English. The AV-8B has the same story. That is, there was nothing American in the American JSF contest.

        By the way, this is the death of Oleg Kononenko (Honored Test Pilot of the USSR) in 1980 at the Minsk TAKR
        The reason for the pilot error and disconnection of the SK-M.

      I agree, but the main thing is that in Russia Prokhorenko and Filipov, etc. , SOLDIERS of the Russian Empire did not transfer ... But weapons in Russia were able to make reliable and effective ..

      So Filipov flew and many others ..
