Corporation aviation Industry (AVIC, China) expects to begin commercial delivery to customers of the world's largest amphibious aircraft, the AG2022, created by it by 600, reports RIA News Statement by Chief Designer Juan Lincai.





We are trying to obtain a certificate of airworthiness of the aircraft from the Civil Aviation Authority for the 2021 year, and by the 2022 year to begin delivery to
said Lincai.

It is designed to extinguish fires and conduct rescue operations on the water. Able to take on board 12 tons of water in 20 seconds. Maximum take-off weight - 53,5 t, hull length - 39,3 m, wingspan - 38,8 m, maximum flight range - 4,5 thou. Km.

    I don’t care ... we’ll continue to collect the BE-200 piece by piece ... and we were planning to deliver it to America, they were saying ten states on board .. but the bureaucrats are stronger than the industrialists.

        An example of how to work, taking care of promoting your product on the market:
        “K.L. Shustov with his sons "
        This Yerevan brand has become famous around the world thanks to its ingenious (and kind of aggressive Yes ) advertising campaign. At the very beginning of the XNUMXth century, Mr. Shustov sent “agents” to European “business trips”.
        Nikolai Nikolaevich Shustov selected two dozen well-educated young people as agents, for a good pay. And at his own expense he sent them to the countries of Western Europe and to North America.

        It was the duty of these agents to go with the lady to an expensive restaurant: he began to order, and when the serving was approaching the end, he was obliged to ask for a “bottle of Shustovsky cognac.” In response to the waiter’s statement that no one had ever heard of such a brand, the young man raised his eyebrows in surprise and, pretending to not believe his ears, asked again:
        “Like, you don’t have Shustovsky cognac, the best cognac in the world?” belay belay belay
        Having received an affirmative answer, he got up, apologized to the lady for bringing her to this “institution”, paid the bill, although they did not touch anything, and, having promised never to visit this restaurant again, left the institution.

        And a month later, the owners of most European and further American restaurants began to order the Armenian Shustov cognacs.


        And then they cluck: "The markets are closed for us, the markets are closed for us" ...

        A ROLLING STONE GATHERS NO MOSS.

          Dear ... well, this is a bike with a beard! A decent restaurant doesn’t care what a man in a decent suit said but without a name .. a decent restaurant used the famous brands of cognac that respected people loved! One visitor in a jacket is smaller, the other is bigger .. and here dear regular customers, yes ... but it wasn’t Shustov’s agents. By the way .. on the sign NL Shustov .. and in your repost N.N .. how to understand this? wink ?

              Of course there is, I’ll drop it into your mail! What does Shustov and sons have to do with it, if I asked a question about the name of my middle name? I don’t quite understand your message! This is the same as I’ll come to KODO, or Fahrenheit in a good suit, and order cognac from "Igoreha" for 8 thousand ye ... they will look at me like a fool .. then they will break through what brandy they are and not just look, but they will consider me as such !!!

        The market for which, amphibious aircraft .. I beg you, it does not stand in the first place .. but closer to the end! And before it’s "all but lost" to scream .. let them first put out the fires off .. like our BE-200s! Besides ..he is also half passenger .. laughing, I mean Chinese! Compare turbojet, and turboprop!

          Relatively small relatively small fire / rescue workers sell well.

          They are cheaper to operate. More flexible - well, that is, the Be-200 to drive to the task (for example, to save fishermen or put out a small fire) is very expensive and covers the task, and the baby is normal.

          Be-200 and other big ones can’t afford banal. They will be used say 3-5 weeks in a year (and a bad year) - the rest of the time to eat money.

          A turboprop is, by the way, more economically interesting.

    And why does the Russian Federation need such an aircraft? Develop, invest in production what
    There is little hope for export, because IMHO specific goods hurt.
    NATO won our Ruslans freight (freight) to transport bulky goods and nothing. They themselves do not build such an aircraft, because it is not economically feasible.

      Well, maybe this is exactly what is not needed, but with hydroaviation and the truth is that we do not have a Be-200 (and that’s all the Ministry of Emergencies) and old Be-12. It seems to have forgotten nothing.

        Apparently we do not have big needs for such aircraft, since we are not investing. Why did I ask: why do we need such aircraft?

    Chinese is the "largest", and the water intake is the same as that of the Be-200 (12 tons in 20 seconds).

      And why more? Here it comes down to necessity. If desired, you can expand to the full extent - but why?

      By the way, he will have more problems with the fence than Be thinks. For a fool is much more. And there will be big problems with the selection of sites for water intake.

        The question is in terms of operation. How long can the design of the splashdown at sea withstand the waves. Since amphibian is "the largest in the world", there is virtually no experience. There is only a historical fact that all hydro-giants did not live long

        donavi49 ....And why more? Here it rests - in necessity. If desired, you can expand to the full extent - but why?

        He has more take-off weight due to the "dimensions" and fuel (by 10 -13 tons)
        The fence is mainly from the sea, where take-off and landing distances are not limited. Only wave height. And these parameters are the same as the Be-200 = 2-3 points. That is, its only advantage from the Be is 200, its radius of action, due to a large amount of fuel and turboprop engines. (for now, purely theoretically). hi

    Well, the fact that China has assembled its aircraft for work in extreme conditions. That's good! But it's too early to call it amphibian.
    Since the rise of the vaults and from the surface of the airfield. There are completely different concepts. And physical loads exerted on an aircraft. Also, different. Take off from the airfield is one thing. And erasing the surface of the water as sandpaper. It's another! So as it takes off from the water, it will be Amphmbia!
    Well, not a plane take off! ;)
