It became known about the idea of ​​making innovations in the equipment of pilots of the Russian Aerospace Forces based on the experience of a military operation in the Syrian Arab Republic. Sergey Pozdnyakov, General Director and Chief Designer of NPP Zvezda, talks about the innovations.

The Russian Aerospace Forces decided to modernize the unloading vests of pilots based on Syrian experience




According to Sergei Pozdnyakov, which leads RIA News, the urgent issue was the modernization of the unloading vest of combat pilots aviation. It is noted that the issue of accommodation options for signal flare guns, combat grenades, a pistol, medical preparations and other things important for the pilot is being addressed. The introduction of innovations in the unloading vest is associated with features in the case of ejection into the territory occupied by the enemy.

Pozdnyakov noted that the Syrian events, as once the events in Afghanistan, are pushing developers to new solutions. Modernization of combat pilot equipment is one such option.

At the moment, the final terms of reference for the unloading vest are not formulated, however, by this fall, such a formulation should be, according to Sergei Pozdnyakov, implemented.

Tests of a new unloading vest for pilots are scheduled for 2020 year.

Recall that Russian pilots in Syria were twice as a result of bailouts in the territory occupied by militants. We are talking about the pilot Oleg Peshkov and the navigator Konstantin Murakhtin (Su-24), as well as Roman Filipov (Su-25). One of them was able to return alive - Konstantin Murakhtin, to assist whom a rescue operation was launched behind enemy lines - after a Turkish fighter attacked the Su-24 Russian Aerospace Forces and ejected Russian troops.

        Of course, everyone has their own specifics. Whoever is constantly in technology is one type of unloading, who runs and crawls is another.
        Even Wasserman invented his unloading.

        The training of a highly professional military pilot in Russia costs from 3,4 to more than 7,8 million dollars

        The pilot is expensive, so the means of salvation must be appropriate to the place of work.

      Pilots are not designed to conduct combat operations behind enemy lines. It’s necessary to create special forces for evacuation in such situations,
      A response team adequately armed and technically trained will be much more effective than dancing with a tambourine around the pilots.

        Pilots are not intended for combat operations behind enemy lines.

        This is from the category of "evidence". Here is the pilot, if he found himself behind enemy lines, and you need to hold out until the arrival of the very special forces that you are writing about. And this is not dancing with tambourines at all, but taking into account every little thing that can ultimately save a life. Unfortunately, the rapid response teams to the pilot's ejection site have not yet learned how to move by teleportation.

          The pilot needs to turn on the beacon and dig deeper, and the special group in constant duty can be delivered to the territory with a radius of two hundred kilometers in half an hour with simultaneous cover from the air. I do not mean the paratroopers who were absolutely unprepared for the pointy, lightning-fast actions, as they had to do in Syria.

            They will find with dogs ... the pilot will be gutted with special pleasure ... remember how they burned the Jordanian pilot ... the Syrian pilot.
            It would be better to come up with special equipment that allows you to quickly move from the crash site ... like the recently shown flying platform of the Frenchman Zapata.

              Any searches by specially unprepared specialists for this can take quite a while, dogs also need to be found. If the pilot himself finds himself starting to shoot, he will be captured without options, the defending lone warriors will take it very quickly.

                It’s dangerous to turn on the beacon. It broadcasts on the well-known emergency frequency. And he can search for his barmales with a stray from Ali-Express, in fact, even dogs are not needed here. This is a fact widely known in narrow circles since Afghanistan.
                Lighthouses need others, not the model of the 60s - coded, satellite ... Sworn friends from Nata already have the fifth generation of emergency lighthouses with all the bells and whistles, and we still have the first model of the war in Korea. sad

                  Generally easy to solve. The beacon operates in passive mode to scan a request from evacuation groups; when a request signal appears, the beacon sends a signal for direction finding or with coordinates of the evacuation point.

                    This on your couch is easy to solve. And it is worthwhile to capture such a "requestor" passive responder, and all your plans will collapse overnight. Here, for example, is Kostya Murakhtin's rescue operation. The rescue turntable was hit on the ground. Well, is it far to capture this "interrogator" of the passive mode ?! And when he (the "interrogator") is at the gate, then any of our pilots will surrender himself with giblets, indicating (according to your plan) his coordinates ...
                    So here you have to think, think and think again. Something like this.

                I have been thinking about this for a long time. Since our pilots died in the water after a collision over the sea. Moreover - a paraglider-drone. The Israelis are already using this to deliver the ammunition to the front line. The drone will deliver the wounded to his or at least closer to the front line / shore. In addition, a paraglider is easier to detect in the air, and can even be captured from a helicopter in the air. The beacon, again, can be used without fear to be direction finding.

                    No theory, simple common sense - if you fly at an altitude of several kilometers, you can use the beacon without fear - even if they spot it, they will not catch up.

                      Uv, the same LYOKHA. In order to offer something in the ejection seat device, you need to know a lot. For example, the task of the seat itself, as a means of saving the pilot. And he here (on the airborne) also met such "progressive ideas" as the installation of a parachute-wing instead of an uncontrolled PSU-36. Well, what about? He opened himself over the enemy's territory and flew towards his own ... Well, yes, well, yes ... And after all, it is not known to such "progressives" that the NAZ hangs on the 11-meter halyard below. And as soon as this NAZ catches on to a bush (or tree), the landing will go strictly along a radius of 11 meters (look at the clock face, how it will look). what And if the bailout occurred at night? That's it ...
                      In addition, it would not be superfluous to know the permissible parameters of the weight distribution of the aircraft (to shamelessly push additional devices into the chair, having your weight. Here you, for example, know why on the Su-30 it is used in the design of PGO, but on the Su-35 it is not?!? I explain: weight distribution, center of mass and aerodynamics (and all this on the heap).
                      So, in order to offer something, you need to know a lot. Yes
                      This post of mine does not apply to you personally, but to those who are in a great hurry to offer "progressive", without having the necessary knowledge base for this ..

                If the device starts flying at a sufficiently high altitude, it may be lacking, and with a controlled flight, you can try to get as far away from potentially dangerous places as possible. The problem is that when bailout it’s difficult to quickly navigate the terrain, therefore, you need a GPS navigator with an automatically built-in safe evacuation track /

                    1) The device should be a paraglider wing opening as a parachute.

                      Can you imagine the weight? Indeed, in order to pull such a design, one must have a huge capacity of accumulators, therefore there should be several of them.
                      3) The chair must be protected from penetration by small arms.

                      It turns out the pilot will move in the seat? Do you even imagine the weight and dimensions of this whole structure?
                      And how do you fit all this into a cabin as small as you imagine?
                      I understand that you want, and not just you, to secure the pilot. But it's still not even tomorrow. And the article is about what is being done today.
                      Just imagine how difficult it is to create a very reliable ejection seat. And here we need to create almost a new aircraft, combine it with a catapult, an already sophisticated technical tool, and place all this on airplanes of various brands and destinations. Can you imagine what a difficult technical task it is?
                      The life of a pilot is more expensive, but you also need to understand that today it is simply impossible to create it

                        The visibility and weight of the wing is comparable to the dome, the seat is already on the plane, and for a paraglider is not such a big load. Batteries, an electric motor, an impeller also do not weigh anything; their aircraft models have long been using.

Of pilots and saboteurs on high altitudes and speeds, was repeatedly published in our Soviet magazine "Tekhnika-Molodyozhi" back in the 60-70s of the last century.
                      Then in the West, the "Rogallo wing", which became the prototype of the first hang gliders, was just becoming fashionable, and like everything new, they "idealized" it and tried to adapt it for everything ... just developed the idea a little in the light of progress (including miniaturization and new materials ) control systems, programming (otherwise I remember, heavy and oversized, military programmers - "relays" with sets of control eccentric rollers, as in household washing machines of the 80s), navigation, engine building, aerodynamic surfaces ...

                Why flexible? Our self-taught designer created an airplane in a suitcase. (the one who created the X-14, there are many articles on the internet). Shot down, catapulted, flew on, and shot down? then a parachute.

                  Nikolay Balashov, if you have contacted me, then, in my opinion, the flexible wing version is the most realistic in terms of mass and dimensions, relative simplicity of the device and deployment, the possibility of stealthy non-motorized hover, the stability of its "set" and overloads during ejection ... and the overcomplicated and rather contradictory design of the "Dmitriev" microplanes a priori clearly loses in these parameters, even if it is made at the "highest level" of constructive study and selection of materials. IMHO
                  In addition, we should not forget that the bailout, even of a pilot not injured in battle, is a physically-traumatic factor for any human body and will only be used in a difficult hopeless situation!
                  Therefore, the simpler, more expedient and automated will be the "scheme of the process" of rescuing our pilot (the "ideal scheme" for him should consist of two points: "1). Somehow the process of ejection from the damaged aircraft-2 is activated). With minimal costs the pilot is accepted on board the MSS and he is immediately provided with the necessary medical assistance on the way home "!), so much the better for him and the relevant services! winked

                  For the optimal solution of ANY problem, both small-scale and the most nistrategic-global, it is important to have a clear and precise representation of the ultimate goal that we want to achieve - in this case, the ideal ultimate GOAL of "evacuation of the aircraft operator" is 100% return of the pilot to combat build after the loss of his car ("modernization of the unloading vest" is only an auxiliary element, a step on the way is one of many, but by no means a solution to the main problem of "100% pilot return", which requires more radical approaches than "shifting pockets"! )!

                  PS An even more fantastic "approach", which, perhaps, will turn someone from those involved in the "problem solving", his "train of thought" and lead to the necessary results, is to make the enemy even afraid to look in the direction of the ejected pilot, and not to shoot, cut and somehow try to approach or harm him, literally, so that the eyes of the enemies "burst" and "the mind goes beyond the mind" in any such attempts .... sapienti sat! wink

                You are right here. However, you are missing one very important detail. Kostya Murakhtin noticed that as soon as he gets in touch with the search turntable, he immediately hears the sound of approaching jeeps. He realized that he was being tracked, so he decided to "make his feet", not including the radio station. Tore off the tips of his fingers so that blood began to flow from under his nails (and he climbed up the hill to get away from the jeeps). But I got in touch with the PSS-noy turntable in a different way. Which one I will not say in principle, because it saved his life. Now he is alive and flying. May God let him realize everything, experience and find his correct attitude to his future destiny.

            Do you remember how the commander of the Su-24 was killed in Syria? He did not even manage to reach the ground. Where to bury, if a pilot can land in front of the "barmaley" in a field, desert, some settlement? I will assume that you are simply not in the subject. In NAZ, the pilot has a beacon and a machine gun and much more, but reality throws out such tricks that the beacon can be broken and the enemy - here it is. It is absolutely necessary to arm the crews in the event of a real combat mission.

          Alexey Volodin, do you have a (journalistic) opportunity to address the "top" of the aircraft industry? For a long time ago, the need to install a fired radio beacon on each civilian aircraft / helicopter in the event of its (s-that / in-that) fall is overripe. The search sometimes drags on for years. And, as you know, help is effective within the first 7-15 minutes !!! And the implementation of such an idea (shooting a radio beacon) is extremely simple. The radio beacon itself in today's Russia fits into a 30 mm signal flare (in size). A firing sensor can be used already 40 years ago by an industrial overload sensor, which was used in combat aircraft to destroy the "friend or foe" responder in the event of our aircraft being shot down over enemy territory. In this sensor, it is enough to set the value of g (in units of overload), and it will give an electrical (or mechanical, no difference) signal to shoot such a p / beacon. In hostilities, this signal was transmitted to the "Explosion SRO" (Defendant's radio system). Until then ... everyone is looking for a Korean Boeing that went missing a few years ago. Apotheosis: "... They have been looking for a long time, but cannot find. They are looking for firemen. The police are looking. They are looking for photographers and ... other persons" S.M. Marshak
          And I propose to make such a device in Russia. Current for ... was already knocking on various "supreme doors".

It is noted that the issue of options for placing signal flares, combat grenades, a pistol, medical preparations and other things important for the pilot is being addressed. The introduction of innovations in the unloading vest is connected with the peculiarities in the case of ejection into the territory occupied by the enemy.

      Aviation does not need to fly into the enemy rear, strikes must be carried out remotely using guided weapons, and then an unloading vest along with a helicopter rescue service will not be needed.

      Since guided aviation weapons are primarily represented by gliding bombs with a range of up to 120 km, the use of aviation in conflicts such as the Syrian one can be reduced by a factor of several - it is quite enough to shoot at such a range with guided missiles MLRS "Smerch" with a warhead mass of 250 kg - exactly exactly like the air bombs featured in reports from Syria. External target designation remains the same - from the UAV, equipped with an HDTV camera and a laser designator.

      For especially protected or remote targets, there should be an OTRK based on the same Smerch MLRS, since Russia has withdrawn from the treaty on medium and short-range missiles.

      Saving pilots is really a problem. To fasten a sports controlled parachute is an exit, as pilots leave the plane in a stressful state and cannot always control a parachute. And such a parachute has a too high drop rate. Without control, such a parachute can be broken or crippled. So, other ways are needed. Why not make it so that the pilot can land much earlier than the parachute lands on the ground? Alternatively, it would be possible to attach a coil with a strong cable 100 meters long to the parachute suspension system. After leaving the aircraft at a certain height, such a coil begins to unwind slowly, increasing the distance between the canopy and the person. As a result, it becomes possible to land earlier than a parachute and take cover while the barmalei run after the descending dome. Now the signaling. Any radio signal is direction finding. And Almighty, by a strange coincidence, sends modern barmels modern means of air defense and radio direction finding. In these conditions, turning on the transmitter is deadly. Why not add a laser pointer device to the beacon. When a search team appears in the pilot’s visibility area, it directs a laser beam at the plane. On which a hanging container with a set of laser radiation receivers is mounted. By what receiver received the laser signal, you can determine the approximate direction from where the beam came. One can even organize a one-way telephone channel from pilot to board along this beam.

And where should the pilot send his laser pointer to transmit his encoded message? Somewhere to where he heard the sound of a helicopter (this is through the roar of firing)? Well, what are the chances? And if fog or rain? The laser pointer turns out to be a useless toy.
            In addition, I hinted openly about the situation of Peshkov and Murakhtin. The second laser pointer (in the considered example - Peshkova) may appear at the barmaley. And, if the surviving pilot just needs to hide behind any terrain folds, then the barmalei can broadcast from the open area, which dramatically increases their communication capabilities (unlike ...). In a word, what I wanted to tell you (and not only you) that before you offer anything, you must have good basic knowledge and think carefully for a long time before ...
            Something like that. If you again consider this rudeness, then God will judge you. If Che, then Peshkov and Murakhtin are pilots from my native azrodrom.

              Apologies are accepted. I understand that your emotional message is connected with anxiety for the fate of the pilots. Touching the example you brought with Peshkov and Murakhtin. And in this case, the barmalei had the opportunity to capture the radio beacon and turn it on. As for your fear that a narrow beam of a laser pointer will not allow you to fix the beam on a rescue helicopter. Try an experiment with a regular laser pointer by pointing it at a remote building. And you will see that the size of the light spot will already be decent. Well, for general erudition ... In radio-relay communication there is no concept of “solid angle”, but there are “Fresnel zones”. The size of these zones depends on the wavelength and distance from the radiation source. One can try to solve the problem of beam permeability through precipitation by selecting the appropriate radiation wavelength. I just gave my suggestion. But in my proposal, I did not indicate anywhere that we should abandon the existing system with a radio beacon. A compact laser pointer can complement an existing system. And what exactly to include at the moment, the pilot will decide, based on the situation. Well, so that there were no options that the barmalei lured the rescuers, I suggest using passphrases, passwords, which meant that “I’m fine, I’m waiting for the arrival of the team” or “I’m alive, but in the hands of the barmales” ...

                Well, dear Prutkov, you are already slowly starting to feel and comb your proposed topic. What pleases (unlike paragliders with a motor lol ) However, you again carefully avoided the possibility of capturing all communications equipment of the pilot by the enemy (in our case, barmaley). And such cases are already pulled by a cart and a small cart. Google how many of our turntables got into the territory of the barmaley in Syria. And the question arises already edge on. How not to get ambushed by the MSS turntable when the barmalei use the captured communications equipment of our pilot?
                I have already expressed my thoughts to the staff officers of the PSS. How much will they be heard, and will they be heard at all? Time will tell. Of course, I will not discuss them on this site (because this is a section of the PSO DB). I can only say that this does not concern any modernization of the ejection seat. The creation of a special combat radio station and code protection, yes, it does. On this topic I close. But with floodlights of rash sofa ideas, all the same, I’ll fight here.

      Aviation does not need to fly into the enemy rear, strikes must be carried out remotely using guided weapons, and then an unloading vest along with a helicopter rescue service will not be needed.

      If you do not fight, then military aviation will not be necessary.

      It is necessary to include a gas mask and a grenade launcher with neuroparalytic grenades in the unloading vest.
