Why maneuverability is not the main thing for a fighter. Our days

466
In the previous article, the author tried to evaluate the role of maneuvering qualities for a World War II fighter, having come to the conclusion that maneuverability is an important but far from the most important quality for vehicles of that era. Why, then, with such vehemence discuss the maneuverability of modern combat aircraft?

The reasons for this are several and the main one seems to be an incorrect interpretation of the experience of the Cold War. Apologists of the church "dogfight of the XXI century" like to remember not so much the Second World War and not even the Korean conflict, where the MiG-15 and Saber were approximately equal in flight performance. No, the basis of the estimates is another conflict. The need for high maneuverability (and so-called super-maneuverability) amateurs aviation for some reason, they are considering with an eye on the war in Vietnam.



The argument is the loss of McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II aircraft. Indeed, the United States, according to various estimates, lost such fighters in Vietnam before 900. However, you need to understand that most of the cars died not in air battles, but as a result of non-combat incidents, or from the fire of Vietnamese field artillery. According to the US Air Force, 67 lost all types of planes in air battles, having shot down about the same or more enemy planes, while (again, according to US data) more than a hundred enemy vehicles were shot down specifically by F-4.



Be that as it may, only a few Phantoms became victims of the MiGs, who preferred to use the “hit and run” tactics against F-4-loaded bombs and missiles. And this was quite reasonable, taking into account the dominance of American aviation in the sky and the presence of albeit very imperfect, but still representing a considerable danger, medium-range air-to-air missiles. That is, talking about “dogfight” in this case is inappropriate at all. The experience of using missiles in Arab-Israeli conflicts is a separate issue. Perhaps we will someday examine it in one of the future materials.



Rocket revolution


Now the effectiveness of medium-range air-to-air missiles is constantly growing: modern products have incomparably higher potential than modifications of the AIM-7 during the Vietnam War. So planes armed with old Soviet P-27P missiles or American Sparrow missiles with semi-active homing radars run the risk of encountering big problems if they use more advanced missiles against them, such as RVV-AE, AIM-120 or MBDA Meteor. Not requiring radar "illumination" of the target until it is defeated, and not constraining a fighter pilot in a maneuver after launching a rocket.

The effectiveness of new missiles with an active homing radar is demonstrated, in particular, by the destruction of the Indian MiG-21 by the Pakistani F-16 fighter (shot down 27 of February 2019 by AIM-120C rocket), as well as the downing of the Syrian Su-22 by AIM-120 rocket by June XIMUM ( of the year). These results are not enough to compile a full-fledged statistical base, but they also show that an enemy aircraft can be hit with even a single medium-range missile, which was unattainable for products of past times of confrontation between the USSR and the United States. At least in combat conditions.



To understand the difference: during the war years in Vietnam, only ten percent of AIM-7 hit the target. That is, we can talk about a manifold increase in the effectiveness of medium-range air-to-air missiles over the past half century. Modern electronic warfare systems in theory can affect the accuracy of missiles, however, the ability of new (and even old) products to induce interference significantly eliminates this trump card of a potential victim.

Now experts agree that in a modern air battle, things may not even come to close air combat. In this case, an average fighter will need from two to five medium-range missiles per fighter. And the air battle itself can last not even minutes, but seconds.

Summarize. In the 20th century, the role of maneuverability in air warfare continuously decreased, starting at least from the first half of World War II. Some surge of interest in this topic was observed in 60 and 70. The reason is trivial: for the effective use of early melee missiles with an infrared homing head, it was desirable to attack the enemy from the rear hemisphere, otherwise the homing head might simply not “catch” the target.

Now new short-range missiles, such as RVV-MD and AIM-9X no longer require a "carousel": they can be safely launched into the enemy's forehead with a high chance of defeating him. Thus, even the familiar close air combat has undergone changes, becoming de facto not quite close: a missile with an infrared homing head can effectively hit targets far beyond direct line of sight, allowing the carrier to turn around after attacking 180 degrees and calmly retreat to your airfield. Without getting involved in unnecessary risky close battles in the spirit of the First World Knights.



Generals always prepare for last war


In this situation, a simple question can be posed: what should a modern fighter do in conditions when rocket weapons have reached such heights? Simply put, how can he survive? There is an opportunity for this, but it requires large financial costs and faces considerable technical risks associated with a decrease in the effective dispersion area, and, more simply, an improvement in stealth indicators.

There is something to strive for. According to a reputable publication by The Aviationist, at the U.S. Air Force Red Flag 17-01 exercises held in 2017, the latest fifth-generation American fighter F-35 (probably not without the help of F-22) defeated the enemy simulating F-16 with an 15 score of 1 . “I didn’t even know that the enemy was nearby and didn’t understand who shot me down,” the American pilots who piloted in the F-35 exercises, which, incidentally, had completely modern radar stations, described their collisions with F-16.

The data from the previous Red Flag exercises allow us to draw very specific conclusions: while in World War II maneuverability replaced the speed, now the speed itself has been replaced by stealth radar. It was she who lay at the forefront of a modern fighter aircraft. No one intends to change the current course of development of military aviation equipment, which is confirmed by new and promising fighters of the USA, Russia, China and Europe, built around the principle of stealth, which often runs counter to the requirements for improving maneuverability.



But this sacrifice is completely justified. Otherwise, we would not have examples of J-20 or F-35: in fact, the only mass fighters of the fifth generation of the foreseeable future, and possibly the entire first half of the 21st century. If there is an alternative to stealth, then we do not see it.

In this regard, the refusal to increase speeds is completely justified. In modern realities, this is simply not necessary, since high speed is no longer a guarantee of survival. Over-maneuverability - and even more so. In fact, it did not even recede into the background, but into the background, becoming purely optional.

A modern fighter should generally avoid abrupt maneuvering in combat conditions, since this threatens with a sharp loss of energy, as well as huge overloads that will prevent the pilot from responding effectively to threats. That is, if in a normal situation the fighter still has at least some chances to get away from the enemy’s missile, then when performing aerobatic maneuvers it turns into an “ideal” target. And it will be destroyed if not the first missile, then the second - for sure. We can say even more simply: aerial stunts have little to do with war, as such. Unless, of course, modern generals are preparing for the First World War or for repeating the experience of 1941.



To summarize. The requirements for a modern fighter can be arranged in descending order of importance in this way:

1. Stealth;
2. On-board electronic equipment and network-centricity;
3. Armament;
4. Speed;
5. Maneuverability.

There is a possibility that in the future hypersound may influence the prioritization, but a full-fledged hypersonic fighter may appear only many decades later.

      .e. Is the maneuverability of our fighters, like everyone else, not so important?

      It seems so. A couple of years ago I read an article by physicians at the St. Petersburg Military Medical Academy. They came to the conclusion that the capabilities of super-maneuverability inherent in fighters can be used in practice for XNUMX percent — the pilot cannot withstand constantly arising overloads. Just faints or goes blind for a while. In battle, that's ... that's it.

        "Super maneuverability" does not imply obligatory high values ​​of overloads. In the framework of classical aerobatic maneuvers, the g-force value "n" in the first approximation is defined as n = V ^ 2 / R, where V is the tangential velocity component and R is the instantaneous turning radius. Hence the conclusion that the overload value is the greater, the higher the speed and the smaller the turning radius. Based on the classical concepts of aircraft maneuvering, of course, the overloads should increase. However, in the "super-maneuverability" modes due to the large angles of attack, it is the tangential component of the velocity that is relatively low. In this regard, when "supermaneuvering" the value of the overload is even lower than when performing classical maneuvers. More serious requirements in this case are put forward for the operation of the pilot's vestibular apparatus.

          1) The formula given by you is wrong. This is the formula for centripetal acceleration. "Overload" is a "normalized" acceleration, so add g = 9.81 m / (c * c) to the denominator. 2) Maneuverability is the ability to change the speed vector (i.e. change the speed in magnitude and (or) change the direction of movement).
          3) "Super-maneuverability", "non-standard maneuver" are strange terms, because almost all maneuverable aircraft have a thrust-to-weight ratio above 1.
          An airplane is a "complex system", and the properties of a system are not determined by the sum of properties, therefore, the absolutization of any one property means a "departure" from reality, in which the designers manage to provide a specific level of each property. The problem is not to degrade so much that the lag behind the likely partner becomes critical and then hopeless.

        Sports aircraft Su-31 made in the calculation of overload up to 12G. Before that, athletes performed on Yakovlev airplanes where the permissible overloads on the glider were up to 9G. But there were cases when the Yak planes in training or competition fell apart from overload, so 31G was set in the TK on the Su-12. A modern fighter, usually up to 9G. Only the Su-37 was indicated to 12. In general, made according to the capabilities of the pilot.

      Maneuverability (even super maneuverability) modern fighter needs (!!!)) for three reasons. First, in close combat. The angular velocity of a passing target can be high, which makes special demands on the maneuverability of an attacking aircraft. He must have time to turn on the target to carry out a successful attack. The situation is similar with protection: a more maneuverable aircraft will be able to "twist" the enemy and escape from the attack, including the transition to a counterattack. Second, in the conditions of long-range missile combat over-maneuverability can be used to increase the effectiveness of missile defense. And finally, third, under various conditions, some characteristic aerobatics can apply to counter enemy radar systems. In particular, the figures "cobra" and "bell", providing for a sharp drop in speed, can interfere with the operation of Doppler radars. Simply, all aircraft designers in the world are sleeping and see how to make a fighter even more maneuverable, and here the author claims this .. request

        I don’t know what the aircraft designers see, but I believe that stealth is much more important for promising fighters, as is the presence of a radar to detect the enemy and his attacking missile. In addition, it should have a variety of ammunition.
        In the future, the role of manned fighters (undoubtedly) will be taken by AI-controlled drones, which will allow them to use their 100% maneuverability and exclude the direct death of the pilot ...
        However, this time will not come soon (within the limits of human life). And the development of missile weapons can fundamentally change the tactics of aviation. So, for example, the appearance of long-range hypersonic missiles in air defense and new methods of early warning can put an end to aviation activity by the type of its use from neutral (or other countries) airspace ...
        Purely own opinion, I can not guarantee its infallibility ...

          Either snipers or deserters (these are not visible there by definition) can be invisible on the battlefield: if you want to win, go on the attack! Open up. But open up wisely. Supermaneuverability is "intelligence" and stealth is "cowardice."
          If you look closely at the history of the United States, then if the guys always wanted to solve their problems, sitting in the bars and drinking cheap beer from cans. And all their weapons concepts are based on this: how could we get it so that we can fuck the enemy straight from here, from the bar ... With all kinds of marginals like Saddam, it rolls, but even with Ho Chi Minh they got a bummer.

            Either snipers or deserters (these are not visible there by definition) can be invisible on the battlefield: if you want to win, go on the attack! Open up. But open up wisely. Supermaneuverability is "intelligence" and stealth is "cowardice."

            Stealth has always been. It is still very important to fly against the background of the earth, because the detection range of even modern conventional aircraft radars is relatively small. At the same time, the range of your radar on a high flying airplane is unlimited. A plane at low altitude can easily exit the BV at a transonic speed, because the approach time is about 10 seconds in opposite directions from the detection range.

              I’m very upset you, it’s not at all. most radars, including aviation and over-the-horizon, perfectly see moving objects and it does not matter at all against the background of what.

                ZGRLS have their problems. In particular, low detection accuracy, dependence on the state of the atmosphere, etc.
                At low altitudes they fly primarily to avoid detection by ground-based radars. No matter how powerful the C-400 or Patriot PAC-3 radar, it cannot bypass the curvature of the Earth.

                    Everything is simple: ZGRLS “Container” (the most advanced) operates on decameter waves. Such stations can detect mass missile launches, etc.
                    Look a little better at the question: the frequencies of modern air defense systems are 1-10cm. It is they who are able to accurately determine the position of the target and direct a missile at it, highlight the target for PARLS. Active GOS missiles also work in the centimeter range. And against them, a radical decrease in visibility is achieved.
                    At a wavelength of 10m, you determine that something is moving in a 500x500m square. The number of targets, their exact height, no. And the anti-aircraft missile launcher is now out of fashion))

                        I am curious winked within the framework of your theses, formulate why over-the-horizon radars are being built if they are not able to detect and track targets? Let me remind you that the flight range of ICBMs significantly exceeds the range of over-the-horizon radars, and the launchers are beyond their range. what "mass launch" should they define? request

                        ZGRLS allow you to see the fact of approximation of goals, multiple, above all. Massive launch of cruise missiles at a distance of 500-1000km, for example. Aegis is limited by the curvature of the Earth.
                        Fighting him (with the goal of drowning out) with stations like Khibin is impossible. It is only difficult to determine the location of the aircraft and take on escort. Self defense tool that allows you to win seconds / minutes.

                        operators will not be able to deal with the interference. if the signal is distorted according to a complex algorithm, then the operator will constantly change the coordinates of the target and it will not work to set a static correction. for the dynamic one needs to know the noise algorithm of which the operator does not know. then the operator suffers and panics "for a few seconds / minutes" and after being hit by a rocket he is sent to the best world together with IJIS.

                        IJIS will not stop conducting PRR, targets will be able to attack automatically.
                        Detuning from interference is carried out by the developed CIUS, which does not know how to panic. The operator only controls her work. A radar with a phased array is more difficult to confuse, there is also the opportunity to direct missiles at an obstacle that will not last long in this case.

                        I’ll tell you so, if the conversation about the signal-to-noise ratio has already begun:
                        Fort has tens of kilowatts of power per pulse
                        Any headlamp has a pulse power of one mono-frequency cell - from 3 to 7 watts. (Watt Carl !!!)
                        What signal / noise advantage are you writing about ???
                        The advantage of the PAR is the multi-frequency, in expanding the spectrum of the emitted signal and in the complication of clogging it with interference. Well, of course, the possibility of obtaining a large number of rays to accompany a large number of targets. But due to a sharp drop in power in the beam, and even more so an incomparable signal level in the pulse. Of course, the signal processing algorithms pull the signal / noise up, but the Fort work no less, and perhaps more efficient algorithms and with an initial power of 100 kW, it is much easier to increase the signal / noise than with 7 watts.
                        In addition, the Fort antennas are raised to the top of the masts (these are almost twice as high as the Aegis canvases). The radio horizon is commonplace 10-15 km further along MV targets.
                        This is so, "popular mechanics"

                        Compare the public characteristics of SPY (up to 7 MW per pulse, try to rotate such a colossus) and Fort. Given that the first also works with the unifying protective resources of the BIUS ship, there is a clear advantage. The proof of the fidelity of the concept is our Polement (although it has passed a difficult path in development).

          And the first places in unmanned systems will take the United States, Israel and, probably, China (based on current positions).
          Long-range hypersonic missiles (300-400km, 6-7M) are already there. The problem is with the detection of an inconspicuous target at such a range, the ability to hold it with a backlight radar (works in the centimeter range), and a radio horizon (partly solved by the ARLGSN). As well as the maneuverability of a heavy rocket (with solid propellant rocket propulsion), which generated fuel when flying at a longer range and flying by inertia and maneuvering with aerodynamic planes. Against the AWACS plane or bomber is still enough, and against the fighter 20-30t? The question is rhetorical.

            Well, not zilch, if the detection range of the MiG-29 near the ground with AN APG -68 is about 40 km, then the F-35 will be detected at a distance of about 25-30 km. And this is an extra 1-2 seconds.
            The capture of medium-range missiles by the ARGSN is not the work of an airborne radar at all, it’s also a plus.

                    Believe me, there are problems for such radars, and for them there is stealth technology, only they are different. Another thing is that the Americans haven’t invested anything in them yet - this is a race. Radars are cheaper than protection systems against them.

              The F35 from the front of the EPR is 100 times smaller than the MIG-35. Therefore, the detection range (for APG-68 and analogs) is reduced by 3,16 times and is 12,6 km. There is very little time for reaction.
              If we recall that the EPR of the 1st quarter of the radar of the 35th is seen 100+ km, then woe to the lagging behind in long-range missile combat.

                3danimal! The F-35 image intensifier tube is 5 times smaller than that of the Mig-35, and not 100 times, as you write. This means the detection range of the F-35 will be reduced by 1,495 times.
                For Mig-35 EOP = 1,5 m2, and for F-35 EOP = 0,3 m2. The image intensifier in all cases is average and should not be confused with the instant advertising firm Lockheed Martin. Therefore, your calculations are generally incorrect. In addition, you absolutely do not know the parameters of the radar ... Do not confuse the American radar with the Russian, where the US radar is inferior to the Russian radar in detection range.

          A bunch of aircraft carrier + aircraft will be delayed a little longer, because, as modern politics shows, the war is being fought against banana republics that do not have promising air defense. In fact, now we can consider several sovereign states that in the future will scare each other at a distance - the United States, Russia, China, India, Iran. All the rest will fall under the states.

          This will happen faster than we can imagine. I think AI will be tightened over the next 5 years. I don’t know how long it will take to re-equip existing fighters with replacing the man on the computer, but, I think, such work is already underway. And since on modern aircraft all control is electronic, not mechanical, re-equipment will be structurally simple - the only question is the adequacy of AI algorithms.

          Fighter jets and bombers will disappear like a class - only strike drones (controlled from the ground or AI) will remain. And all the same, the sovereignty of sovereigns will remain, because one rocket will cost less than a strike aircraft.

        The first one. Modern missiles on modern planes can hit targets without turning the plane. They turn themselves on a combat course, even if the enemy’s aircraft is not in the front hemisphere. Moreover, as correctly noted in the article, the melee range now begins outside of visual detection.
        The second one. Anti-aircraft maneuver, even in the case of visual detection of an approaching missile, will cause the aircraft to receive more damage. Missiles today do not explode in a collision, detonation occurs at a distance, and the fragments go just to the sides, and not forward.
        The third. Modern military radars do not care about the sudden change in aircraft speed. Their antenna does not rotate, they have a headlamp and lose their target during antenna rotation, as they were in the 1960s.
        Therefore, despite the fact that aircraft maneuvers at different shows look spectacular (which greatly contributes to sales), nobody really bothers with over-maneuverability.

        The maneuverability (even over-maneuverability) of a modern fighter is needed (!!!)) for three reasons.

        1. Melee in our time is already such an exotic thing that spending machine resources on it, IMHO, is an inadmissible luxury.
        2. Do you think that a manned aircraft can "twist" a missile in-to or to-in? Well, let's even assume that the plane itself could. But the missiles are designed for overloads when maneuvering 20 - 25 g. And what will happen to the pilot even with a short-term single exposure to an overload of at least 10g?
        3. I admit that the Doppler radars during the execution of the "cobra" or "bell" during the execution of the figure may lose sight of the plane. But these are some moments, and then they will pick it up again. And not Doppler is on the drum.

                  At maximum range, a rocket with solid propellant rocket launcher has a completely burnt out powder bomb (“fuel tank”) and flies by inertia. Each maneuver entails an irrevocable loss of speed.

            And how many missiles can maneuver in this way and after what distance?
            The rocket will be able to maneuver, apparently, until it completely dries out, but the point is that the RVV has a fuel supply designed for a limited engine operating time. Usually this time is from 2 to 20 seconds depending on the type of rocket. During this time, the rocket accelerates to maximum flight speed and then moves by inertia with a constant decrease in its flight speed due to air resistance.

              not only that, the American missile, after it beats off a moment or drying up, flies in search of new targets with the help of Avax, catches up with a new target, knocks it down, and after that it goes to land on Ilona Mask on the offshore platform.

          1. Melee in our time is already such an exotic thing that spending machine resources on it, IMHO, is an inadmissible luxury.
          2. Do you think that a manned aircraft can "twist" a missile in-to or to-in? Well, let's even assume that the plane itself could. But the missiles are designed for overloads when maneuvering 20 - 25 g. And what will happen to the pilot even with a short-term single exposure to an overload of at least 10g?
          3. I admit that the Doppler radars during the execution of the "cobra" or "bell" during the execution of the figure may lose sight of the plane. But these are some moments, and then they will pick it up again. And not Doppler is on the drum.

          Nonsense. And the author of the article is wrong. None of the designers (ours, Americans, Chinese) specifically sets themselves the task of "super maneuverability". It itself is obtained from a high thrust-to-weight ratio and a relatively low wing load.
          These figures are approximately the same for the fourth and fifth generation.
          And they are dictated by the required speed, rate of climb, combat radius, combat load and takeoff and landing characteristics. A modern fighter that meets these requirements simply cannot be non-maneuverable. And to get away even from the "ancient" R-60 with its probability 0,9, overload 40g, all-aspect, with proportional aiming at the anticipated meeting point if it is launched within acceptable limits - well, miracles do happen.
          He let him go first and managed to get away before they answered - these are modern realities.
          And for those who talk about "high angular velocities", which do not allow aiming, have everyone seen the liner in the sky? The distance to it (inclined) is no more than 15 km, the speed is 900. So what? crawling like a fly on glass. An attempt to "sharp" maneuvering from the launch range will look exactly the same - well, the point crawled away by a couple of degrees in a second.

            not such a thing. There is maneuvering to disrupt guidance. There are several tactics both alone and in groups.

              The method of "direct aiming" and "chase" (when the axis or the vector of the missile's velocity is directed to the target) are a thing of the past in the 70s. For a long time only proportional guidance has been used. Only the coordinator (head) is directed to the target. Velocity vector - to the meeting point. And the overload of the rocket at long ranges is scanty, no matter how spinning the plane, and at the last kilometer it slips in 2 seconds. Moreover, the remaining 300 meters, it is not controlled, but flies like a blank (all the same, the target will not jump out of the zone of the radio or optical fuse). This was done on purpose due to signal fluctuations at short ranges and inadmissible rocket swing. Permissible overload R-60 40g with a maneuvering target up to 12g. From this condition, the launch zones were determined from different angles. If the launch is "in the zone," only a prayer for missile failure with a probability of 1 out of 10 will help. No maneuvers such as "turn to a missile with a descent" and shoot LTZ will help, as in Vietnam.

                certainly no one denies. Just what does it change in modern realities? If earlier GOS RVV had poor noise immunity, a narrow coordinator target, a simple algorithm, but their goals in Vietnam also had low flight characteristics (F-4: TV - 0,7, UNK - 450; Su-35: TV - 1,1 , UNK - 410), and counter-reaction systems were either low-power or absent altogether, then with the growth of weapons capabilities the technical capabilities of aircraft and their defense systems also increase. Therefore, each war has its own weapon.
                And overloading the missile at long ranges is scanty, no matter how the plane turns, and at the last kilometer it skips in 2 seconds

                let's talk about either one thing, or RVV DB or RVV SD and DB. Otherwise, confusion arises. In one place you write about long-range overloads, in another place about the R-60 and the LPC firing. At different distances, various tactics are followed for evading an attacking missile.
                And overloading the missile at long range is scanty, no matter how the plane turns, and at the last kilometer it skips in 2 seconds.

                missile maneuvering over the entire flight path of an attacking missile can be different. For example, if at the beginning of this flight it is purely trajectory with the production of information interference, then on the last 1/3 of the trajectory it can be active with the shooting of dipoles. Perhaps the use of their own weapons. In general, the tactics of air combat on SD and DB can be different: intercept or duel. Accordingly, even duel tactics are divided into options / stages:
                - occupation of a tactically advantageous position;
                - pre-emptive missile launch on the enemy;
                - protection against an attacking rocket of the enemy using it
                their missiles;
                - protection from an attacking enemy rocket with evasion from battle;
                - exit from air combat.
                The most interesting thing is that during the semi-natural simulation of battles of equal opponents, the plane that was the first to leave the battle was losing.
                From this condition, the launch zones were determined from different angles. If the launch is "in the zone," only a prayer for missile failure with a probability of 1 out of 10 will help. No maneuvers such as "turn to a missile with a descent" and shoot LTZ will help, as in Vietnam.

                if we are talking about missiles RVV DB with AGSN (IK) and generally about melee, then the situation is different. The task will be to first go out the viewing angles, allowing you to launch a rocket. And here begin to play the aircraft's ability to energetically maneuver without loss (or with minimal) energy. For example, a coup, with a quick change of direction of flight by 180 ° with a simultaneous decrease in altitude and increase (or preservation) of flight speed. The hill you mentioned with LPC firing has a chance to thwart a rocket attack from the AGSN (whatever you say), but it all depends on the spatial position of the aircraft, their speeds relative to each other and the launch range.

                  Who argues. Keeping the trajectory of the aircraft perpendicular to the rocket's velocity vector is the only way to make the "proportional" rocket maneuver. But the rocket scientists know it too. Roughly speaking, acceleration is proportional to the square of the speed divided by the turning radius. ... The rocket's speed is on average 2 times higher. With the same radius, the overload is 4 times higher. Hence the numbers 47g at 12g for the target. From the same considerations, the area of ​​the rocket wing is also chosen. Well, the fighter will not "twist" the missile. And electronics is even sadder. After all, I brought the BB rockets of the late 70s. But even then they were "probing" the idea of ​​additional channels (ultraviolet contrast against the sky). And now, with a video and a submillimeter location, a computer with brains on board, what the adversaries have done there, you can't even imagine.
                  And not for dog fighting or dodging missiles, this fighter maneuverability. Just with a thrust-weight ratio of about 1, the wing load is on average 375 kg per square meter. m and a glider strength of 9 g, even a stupa of a woman’s yaga will perfectly maneuver. This is a consequence of the requirements of range, speed, rate of climb and landing speeds, and not an end in itself.

                    because at close range, the aircraft with better maneuverability will sooner reach the attack position and launch will perform from a better position. Accordingly, he has more chances to defeat the enemy.

The Americans released 3 AIM-7 and 1 AIM-120. All missiles pass by. Then 2 Kota joined the Needles and fired 2 AIM-54 Phoenix missiles. Past again. as a result, the 25s went into their zone without losses. Therefore, I want to say this - to declare "they will knock everyone down for 100 km, close combat is anachranism" is utter nonsense and a marker for experts from the couch.

      In this situation, a simple question can be posed: what should a modern fighter do in conditions when rocket weapons have reached such heights? Simply put, how can he survive? There is an opportunity for this, but it requires large financial costs and faces considerable technical risks associated with a decrease in the effective dispersion area, and, more simply, an improvement in stealth indicators.



      Incorrectly posed question and half correct conclusion. Supermaneuverability is also a means of invisibility, as well as a means of evading missiles. If the American "invisible", new radars are seen at a distance of 100 km. It turns out that this is no longer an average distance. That is, the Russian plane, theoretically, can evade the missile, or, having made a sharp maneuver with an almost one hundred percent drop in speed, the GB will be lost altogether, but the American plane will most likely be destroyed?

      I partially agree with you. However, as mentioned above, what kind of overload will the human body withstand and what kind of rocket construct? Here is the answer. With modern technology, maneuverability goes by the wayside. The main thing is to first detect the enemy and strike.

        about overloading is a crafty parameter, even a simple acceleration at the right time towards the rocket (with the barrel) can work, the main thing is the right moment. As for the attack first, it will most likely be on the opposite course

        It is necessary to clarify: there is practically no chance of a maneuver of a fighter from a modern BVB missile, with a maximum overload of 50-60g, with an engine with OBT.
        Against the “medium” (AIM-120, up to 180km) and long-range missiles (400km, low maneuverability), when fired at the maximum distance, they are significantly larger.

            There is always a small statistical probability. Therefore, they release a couple of rockets.
            In the vast majority of episodes, this is enough.

    The author somehow especially voluptuously believes all American propaganda ... Besides, the plane doesn’t just maneuver, but he also actively uses electronic warfare. Is it easier to get away from the capture and maneuver the rocket than flying in a straight line? I don’t think that our designers and warriors are just so dumber as opponents that they insist on the implementation of super-maneuverability .. Probably - they still have good arguments for this .. And so - the Americans have declared the same thing for the umpteenth time - such as maneuverability , everything will be decided by long-range combat and advanced electronics. And each time they are liquidly trimmed ..

      Yes, there were cases when, while looping, the hare left the shot from the AK (even the lineup) - there is a witness (Yasha Polunin from 2 MSB 272 MSP). But another thing is when a high-speed rocket catches up with an aircraft with a high degree of target retention. The surviving guys after the duel: the stinger against the helicopter, can confirm.

      Underestimating the enemy is reckless (see. Six Day War).
      Zhukov also understood the enemy when he planned front-line operations, for:
      May my enemy be strong and terrible. If I overcome it, I will not feel shame.
      But the Americans are simply obliged to constantly feel shame. All countries against which they started a war opposed the svor and were much weaker in economic terms.
      This American feature of warfare guarantees Russia a relative period of calm from "partner military harassment", although attacks from satellites are possible.

      I do not support them, I try to analyze and understand why they believe that the future lies in long-range combat and means of detection. Why don't they prioritize maneuverability in our realities?
      Maybe because if you were found first, but you couldn’t, and they shot at you with two AIM-120Ds, then maneuverability will not help and you won’t get away from them? "Bell", "barrels" and cobras "twist? Does this really help?

        The main thing is to detect the attacking rocket on time, and there are problems with this.
        The dual-mode AIM-120 engine gives a chance to leave the affected area when a start is detected.
        OLS is able to detect a working rocket engine at a distance of at least 60 km.
        Maneuvers when starting at a distance of 60 km - yes, it will help. Well, ground level - will help disrupt the capture of the ARGSN.

      ROFAR is still a cat in a poke.
      Speed ​​is of course an important factor, but far from the most. Much more important are characteristics such as thrust-to-weight ratio and wing load. Because it is from them that all the capabilities of a combat aircraft dance.
      And the author wrote a list of stupidity, made up of his amateurish idea of ​​what is needed and what can be thrown away.

            I think that in a long conflict and almost immediately after the use of nuclear weapons by two or three sides of the confrontation, all variations of generations that can fly into the air will fly and cause damage. And in a flash, 21 will go in line with 4 ++ dryers due to the fact that the more indestructible iron is, the more often it will take off from airfields. And all other arguments about invisibility and other candy wrappers in a beautiful wrapper will go to the landfill, to spare parts and just to trash. The main thing is not what tank you drive on the highway, but whether your tank drives at all with the fuel that you have today. Does the dviglo keep revolutions, transmission and other tracks work? And so it will be in everything. For everything will turn into one Somalia. And that’s why they are in no hurry to build armats if there are a sufficient number of spare parts and tanks for them in storage. It is in this order - spare parts, and tanks to them. Spare parts, and to them planes and helicopters. Let your opinion win on the divan battlefields. But at the headquarters there are people who understand that there is no army without rear support. And that sometimes decommissioned guns can, with a proper approach to knowledge of calibers, stop the Germans near Moscow. Problems in the absence of competent and intelligent staff.

              But such a scenario will be preceded by conventional clashes (and you, in fact, admit that in this format the Russian Federation is not able to win). And during the battles for supremacy in the air, invisibility will cause great damage to fighter aircraft (including). We don’t do airplanes “like sausages”, especially pilots of modern aviation.
              Absolutely all meetings of the Mig-21 / Su-22 and other old types with the F-16 / F-14 / F-15 ended with unilateral losses of "veterans". So, they are suitable only for extras, covering with bodies 4/4 +.
              We have a lot of people of the “lower classes” and their willingness to not spend them (he’s not talking about the children of generals / officials and themselves, these are first-class people). But enough skilled pilots can’t prepare “on the knee”. And in aircraft of the 5th generation, we are far behind. Consequently, the main part will be mostly knocked out during the ongoing air battles.

    As for me, over-maneuverability is needed, first of all, as a means of giving confidence to the pilot when piloting in critical and unsteady modes - firstly, secondly - not to allow critical loss of that very energy, i.e. provide overclocking performance. But - only in combination with the information awareness of his pilot and ensuring maximum misrepresentation of the enemy. So super-maneuverability + avionics!

        And what kind of overload are there - you know?
        Any energetic maneuver occurs with a loss of speed, and overload, ceteris paribus, is proportional to the square of the speed: as soon as the plane begins an energetic maneuver, it immediately begins to lose speed - the overload immediately drops.
        In reality, steady maneuvers with overloads above 4 ... 5g are very rare.
        Over-maneuverability is, rather, the presence of simultaneously a whole spectrum of overloads (both vertical, horizontal, and lateral (which is very unpleasant!)). This is new. And the pilot must be prepared for this. (By the way, back in Vietnam, the Americans began to panic that the "Russian" pilots were better able to withstand overloads. And what has changed since then?)

    1. Stealth;
    2. On-board electronic equipment and network-centricity;
    These two points do not fit together well.
    You can get away from a long-range missile by simply changing the meeting point so that the fuel is not enough. Or organize a breakdown of escort (electronic warfare or descent to the ground). In addition, the ability of the rocket to overload should be five times higher than that of the target; in the RVV database, this is usually a problem.
    Disruption of escort (EW or descent to the ground) will help from a medium-range missile.

      Twice is enough.
      And you must perform the maneuver at a certain range to the rocket and strictly in a certain direction.
      If you perform unsuccessfully in time or direction, you simply lose speed and energy and the rocket will bring you down easier. If you succeed, the missile will miss, but you still lose speed and energy, and if the missiles are launched in pairs, then the second will get you after your maneuver.

          Only now, if there were two, then the second one flies a little behind and will get you at the end of the maneuver.

  20. +3
    27 August 2019 21: 11
    Interesting look.
    What to add
    1. Maneuverability at any high speeds is limited by the permissible overload of the pilot and aircraft — theoretically a maximum of 9.5 g, actually a maximum of 7.5 g.
    And although you're thrice super-maneuverable, already at medium speeds there will be a restriction on overload.
    2. The missile defense maneuver is far from being as simple as it seems to some. It should be coordinated in range to the rocket and direction, if you make a mistake, just help her bring down herself. The problem is that the overload capacity of modern 25-50 missiles far exceeds that of an airplane.
    Some of the missiles after the engine burns out by inertia, losing energy, speed and maneuverability, in which case you can get away from it by maneuver. Only they are often allowed in pairs with a short pause, and if you dodge the first, the second will fall. And modern missiles began to make the engine work continuously, and they retain high energy throughout the flight range.
    3. Melee combat within the limits of visual visibility is 2-5 km, while the pilot is forced to reduce speed to reduce the turning radius, and here maneuverability manifests itself.
    4. The situation is such that for aiming a modern rocket in close combat it is not necessary to aim the nose of the aircraft at the enemy already for aiming - there are helmet-mounted targeting systems of the NSC that allow aiming by turning the head, and there are missiles with a target capture after launch. Modern missiles can be launched at all 360 degrees, that is, they can be launched on airplanes flying behind you, but NSCs are usually limited in aiming angles, so it’s really difficult to apply.
    5. Of n3 and 4 there is an exception.
    This is an aircraft equipped with a full-spherical optical-location system with the image displayed on the helmet shield, which allows close visual combat at long distances and high speeds, where maneuverability is limited by point 1, and the same NSC system. Thus, for close combat, this aircraft does not need high maneuverability.
    As far as I know, there is one so far and he is still damp and a little expensive.
    This is f-35.

    Of course, the author turned down be healthy))) field artillery))) prankster damn)) well, let’s say, the Americans suffered huge losses on airplanes mainly from air defense, in particular from the S-75, S-125 air defense system. This is at medium and high altitude and from anti-aircraft artillery at low altitude when, in an attempt to break through the air defense, fighters were reduced to a couple of hundred meters and lower and used the dead zone of the air defense radar, often using riverbeds and other lowlands of the landscape in order not to fall under the fire of air defense. But the hooks also provided for this and to the maximum such areas covered all kinds of anti-aircraft guns. Let’s say for 3U-23 a target flying at an altitude of 50-100 meters at a speed of 500-600 km / h at a range of 0.5 -2 km is quite a target for itself if it is expected in advance. Well, of course, the planes also contributed to the team account. In general, with all their efforts, the Americans did not have total superiority in the air, but they had large losses in aircraft. As everyone knows, the war in Vietnam was lost by the Americans and the fact that they could not keep the sky above it was one of the reasons for their defeat. And no matter how much they downplay their losses, the fact is, the war is lost, and therefore, after 10 years of fighting, a lot of planes of all classes were probably lost.

      In water battles, the confirmed losses of phantoms were not very high.
      In addition, there were two important political factors that leveled the advantages of phantoms - the requirement of visual identification of the enemy, which negated all the advantages of phantoms in electronics, and the areas prohibited by airstrikes, where the Vietnamese set their sight.

          Because optics, as it were, have nothing to do with it. For the principle of guidance of Navalny Krotal - from the ship's CIR or from its own detection radar... Optics are activated only when the target drops below 50 m, so that SEID filters out interference from the surface. Detection by an optical channel at a specified range is possible, I do not deny, but then there would be no scandal, and once the waves rose, it means that the ship's CIUS or crotal radar saw the "invisible". I would put it differently, the closer the missile's ARLGSN is to the "stealth", the less "invisible" it is for the ARLGSN.

              In bulk moleholes, radio command guidance, optics only for tracking the target and IR rocket tracer, detection - pure radar. About ARLGSN + stealth is written for V-V rockets.

                  I personally will not say anything. Let's go back to the purely theoretical plane of discussion.
                  Stealth is a technology that is effective only at a considerable distance from detection means, which is why ranged tactics and the futility of maneuverability look so delicious. It seems that he launched missiles with impunity and returned home unnoticed and unharmed. And here counterarguments begin to pour in in the form of mandatory third-party detection and guidance, developed network centrics and the presence of missiles that can not only fly over 100 km, but also have a reserve for active maneuvering at the final stage of interception. But it was not in vain that I pointed out that the closer the radar - the less the effect of "invisibility". Yes, now the radar station against stealth is "short-sighted", like a half-sighted dog, but if he "sniffs out" and catches a silhouette close, then the integrity of the pants is not at all guaranteed. The task of "bringing the rocket by the handle" to the distance when ARLGS confidently captures the stealth is solved, incl. and a combination of guidance methods where even the onboard electronic warfare is far from omnipotent.

                    In principle, the closer the GOS, the better the probability of detection.
                    And the lower the target’s EPR, the higher the probability of a capture failure and the less the probability of a target capture - this applies to the GPS.
                    Given that the GOS is much weaker and more primitive than the ground or airborne radar.

                      Already closer to the meaning of the "uselessness of maneuvers." The closer the missile with the radar seeker or the enemy aircraft, the better the stealth is visible. And here we are suddenly told that at a short distance maneuverability is not needed at all, you can fly like an iron in a straight line ... and how does this stealth camper-sniper F-35 tactic differ from the hope that F-4 missiles will defeat everyone on distance?

                        GOS target capture is a statistical parameter.
                        The smaller the target’s EPR, the smaller the capture range, the less likely it is, and the higher the likelihood of a capture failure.
                        That is, the probability that the missile hits the target is much lower.
                        As for maneuverability - at medium speeds and above, the overload restriction will not allow taking advantage of the maneuverability of a particular aircraft, and the restriction is slightly different for different aircraft of the same purpose.

                        No, no!
                        The F-15 has much stricter angles of attack than the modern Su-27. Therefore, at the same speed, the Eagle's maneuvering capabilities are worse than those of the 27th. The results of training battles have clearly demonstrated this.
                        With increasing speed, of course, both aircraft will run into restrictions on the glider and the capabilities of the pilot, but this with increasing speed ...
                        It should be remembered that the battle is not on marginal overloads, and overloads bendswhich are significantly lower than the notorious 9g. And on such modes just maneuverability is what affects it.
                        In this sense, the F-22 is doing better than the Eagle: there is an OVT.
                        But the F-35, apparently, is an iron: if he lets someone in, he will not get out.

    really maximum 7.5ж

    When a rocket flies at you, “you’re not so hot yet” (C).

    The available missile overload is 40g at the first quarter of the maximum shooting distance (flight with the engine running), 20g at half the distance (inertia flight) and 10g at the last quarter of the distance.

    In order to guarantee a downing of the aircraft, the available load of the rocket should be twice the available load of the aircraft (for Su-35 / 57 ~ 10 g, for F-35 ~ 7 g).

    Therefore, when conducting air combat in the second half of the firing range, the Su-35 / 57 will leave the rocket of any enemy fighter, but the F-35 will not.

      Visibility decreases in proportion to the root of the 4th degree from the reduction of the EPR. For example, by reducing the EPR by 4096 times, the detection range will become less than 8 times. In addition, the radar characteristics indicate the minimum EPR of the target, of the order of 0,1-0,5 square meters.

                        There are basics of radar. According to which, the decrease in the detection range is proportional to the root of the 4th degree from the reduction of the EPR. By reducing this parameter, say, 4096 times, we will reduce the detection range (for the same radar) by 8 times.
                        As an example, the parameters H035 Irbis:
                        Detection range
                        with EPR of 0.01 m² at opposite angles - 100 km
                        with an EPR of 1 m² in the opposite angles of 270 km.
                        EPR F-22 in the teaching staff is 0,0001 m², therefore, the detection range will be about 32 km.
                        Despite the fact that he sees the Su-35 in LPI mode from 180km.
                        This is the difference between generations of aircraft. When 5 can destroy 20 without loss, or with minimal.

    Well, for example, consider the situation: a super-maneuverable aircraft, our Su 57, flies towards a low-visibility aircraft F22 or F 35, behind the stealth and our aircraft DRLO planes, the DRLO plane detects our plane, gives target designation to a missile with f35 or F22, and does launch, our plane, detecting an enemy missile, begins to maneuver or launch traps, and F22, observing this, again launches. The initiative in such a battle will always belong to the more inconspicuous aircraft, it will choose the time and moment of the attack. Yes, over-maneuverability will allow you to defend actively by maneuvering, but it will be a defense. And only closer to visual contact, the advantage will go to the side of our aircraft.

      Having fired a rocket, the plane discovers itself (especially if there is behind the AWACS).

      This is the first.

      And secondly, the detection of an inconspicuous aircraft will occur far beyond sight.

      Thirdly, if the F-35 flies stealth mode, then its ammunition TOTAL 4 missiles.
      Su-57 (in stealth mode) - 8. Feel the difference. And the Su-35 (without stealth) - 12. That is. it turns out that even the Su-35 can afford to fight off 2 F-35s in stealth mode (i.e. stupidly knocking out fired missiles) and then shoot them down (8 missiles to defeat fired missiles and two missiles for each aircraft).
      And if the missiles are fired from a long distance, then there is a chance of getting away from the missiles by maneuvering and electronic warfare.

      Here is such an interesting math.

      And if the F-35 will carry full ammunition, then nothing will remain of its stealth.

      Fourth, With increasing launch distance, the probability of hitting a target decreases. And there is always such a concept - a zone of guaranteed defeat. And here are completely different numbers.
      In addition, it still depends on the altitude of the target and the rocket. It’s enough to look at any schedule for the zone of destruction of the air defense systems and everything will become clear. Air-to-air missiles are slightly different from ground-to-air missiles in this sense.

      Maneuverability is needed for various things, including missile defense maneuvers. Dogfight in exercises is a big convention with certain limitations. Rafal then won the EMNIP at f-22 with a score of 4: 1, but in reality, rafal is the only MFI that showed defeat in the back hemisphere through its own command center (he was the first to do this from an external control center, but then it was already repeated some other types). So in reality, the odds of the F-22 are even lower. NSCs work quite well, and not only in theory, but they have their own limitations, plus the limitations of the actual specific EWWM

          Sorry, but you do not own the materiel. The specific thrust is for the engine, and the airplane has the thrust-weight ratio. The maximum traction thing, of course, is good, but in itself it does not add maneuverability. OBT on airplanes is effective at low speeds, and some developers use it to compensate for gaps in other design aspects. And in this case, idle theoretical reasoning is useless (all the more so at that level) - there are enough facts, those videos. Both the dogfight itself and the demo of the rafal. If we are talking specifically about the combat component of aerobatics, and not pure aerobatics.

    The author writes everything correctly. In modern aerial combat, maneuverability is not needed. The aircraft essentially turns into an inconspicuous platform for detecting enemy aircraft and launching modern missiles. Watch online videos on what aim9x rockets are capable of

    https://youtu.be/6YMSfg26YSQ

    No maneuver will save from such missiles.
    Russia, as always, is very far behind in high technology. Therefore, the su57 did not go into production, and it launched an air-to-air rocket operating on the principle and forgot not either. The logical result of the development of education and thought.

    That it seems to me that the author is trying to deceive himself. At first he says that stealth is at the forefront, and then does not explain why then the aircraft of the "correct" countries do not look like B-2 or something similar subtle. And after various F-117s, airplanes began to be made a little differently.
    “I didn’t even know that the enemy was nearby and didn’t understand who shot me down,” the American pilots who piloted in the F-35 exercises, which, incidentally, had completely modern radar stations, described their collisions with F-16.

    Wow, wow, please. As I understand it, the author believes in the sincerity of these words. I feel like crying a little. This is just an advertisement for new aircraft and that’s it. what kind of F-16 did not notice the plane and the rocket flying into it.

                        The first time I hear that a plane would be developed for a certain type of bomb only.
                        Which are the most difficult? Against a country far from the most advanced, which did not have the means to detect and was unable to organize an interception. The most difficult is when they are essentially little threatened at all. And when they, unlike other aircraft, were armed with guided bombs. And the accuracy was much higher. Well, great, and it is necessary to compare. As it turned out, it was all such a not-so-long triumph.

                        F-117 in Iraq assigned tasks to strike at the most protected and important targets. Actually, it was developed for this.
                        A small number of these planes defeated 40 percent of Iraq’s strategic goals in 1991.
                        Lockheed Martin single-seat tactical subtle tactical attack aircraft, designed to covertly penetrate the enemy’s air defense system and attack strategically important ground-based military infrastructure objects (missile bases, airfields, command and communications centers, etc.).

                        No, a little bit wrong. These planes dealt the first blow to the most important targets and bombed them successfully. Actually, the Iraqi air defense not only had little idea of ​​what it would have to face. It still had no normal means of detection. Well, they used the F-117 usually at night, so that it was also visually impossible to detect. After that, the work was carried out by ordinary non-invisible aircraft. A few times when the ordinary could not cope, they sent F-117s, these were their significant victories. But these were relatively rare raids.

                        And the slightest change in the balance of the F-117 would be completely useless. If Iraq had more modern equipment or surveillance and reconnaissance in the air, satellite reconnaissance.
                        And you create the conditions for the F-15 and the same bombs. and they will provide 35%. It’s just that it’s more difficult to arrange conditions for them.
                        What do you want to tell me about? I was written above by an unhealthy little American fanatic who does not recognize arguments at all, told some moments about the plane, but there was no essence.
                        F-117 is absolutely what the author of the article writes about. That's almost the quintessence. A flying platform to launch or reset something. She has an extremely narrow specialization. For its effective use, a bunch of conditions must be met. The overwhelming superiority in general in the army, the overwhelming superiority in the air, the weak technical level of the country. Weak capabilities of air defense organization. Without it, he cannot do anything or his effectiveness tends to zero. It takes off with difficulty, flies with difficulty and electronically. His era was all at that time. They were written off not only by the time of operation. But because they were not needed. a normal country could arrange intercepts and much better detect targets, even a weak air defense Yugoslavia could determine flight routes and shoot down one. And he was spotted by a radar station. Yes, at short range. Just the factor of secrecy and surprise cannot last forever. And in other conditions, F-117 can not be used. It’s not even Zamwalt. that even without the alleged weapons can be useful as a ship. But F-117 is not.
                        Here it is stealth without anything. I do not agree with the author. There should be some kind of aircraft that has minimum characteristics comparable with the enemy, and stealth only against them.

                        And they couldn’t shoot down at all because they were so stupid and could not organize an interception. If the aggressors had no superiority both in the air and on the ground, it would be possible to undertake a search upon the fact of the attack. With the maximum speed of the F-117, there could probably be a chance.

    Fizikts anyone taught at school?
    On a subsonic of the MiG-29, for example, at 6g, the turning radius (in any plane) is 700 meters, and for a rocket with an available overload of 40g, the bend radius is more than a kilometer for speed and physics.
    To the maneuver was timely and correct, there are various useful things.
    In addition, not only the overload as such is important, but also the rate of increase of the overload, and here the plane greatly benefits for obvious reasons.
    In addition, the combination of proper vigorous maneuvering and the use of other means of counteraction leads to a disruption in the capture of both the radar and the infrared seeker.
    All this has been calculated and modeled many years ago and is constantly modeled to this day. Based on this, TK is written on aircraft and products are built on the basis of these TK.

    The author writes everything correctly. In modern aerial combat, maneuverability is not needed. The aircraft essentially turns into an inconspicuous platform for detecting enemy aircraft and launching modern missiles. Watch online videos on what aim9x rockets are capable of

    https://youtu.be/6YMSfg26YSQ

    No maneuver will save from such missiles.
    Russia, as always, is very far behind in high technology. Therefore, the su57 did not go into production, and it launched an air-to-air rocket operating on the principle and forgot not either. The logical result of the development of education and thought.


    And what's wrong with the video? GOS captured an almost non-maneuvering target on a collision course and hit it. Moreover, the carrier is clearly exceeding the target, so everyone can. And if the goal is exceeded, then what did you think of the energy supply of the air-blast equipment?
    The maxim about the lack of "fire and forget" on the Su-57 is simply incomparable! And how do you think rockets with IR seeker of times of Glory of the CPSU work ???!

      Look for videos with the latest modification of this rocket. The maneuver is already powerless. But this is a short-range missile. And what is aim120 that works on the principle of letting and forgetting. While the American pilot fired and makes a missile defense missile maneuver, ours is forced to fly towards the target and illuminate it with the airborne radar.

    it is possible to state the need for over-maneuverability
    but only, at least, after demonstrating the successful departure of the Su35 from the P77 maneuver.

    The very idea of ​​air combat between 5th generation aircraft at speeds less than 0,9max seems somewhat dubious.

    I would like someone to help find and compare information on the maneuverability of the su27 \ f15 at speeds above 1max.

    So, let's take a look at the "bones"
    1.
    The argument is the loss of McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II aircraft.
    Dear author, As arguments, in general, they cite the loss of ALL TYPES OF AIRCRAFT. On the Phantom, the light did not converge like a white wedge. And there were about 3500 thousand of all types.
    but nevertheless representing a considerable danger of medium-range air-to-air missiles. That is, talking about “dogfight” in this case is inappropriate at all.
    Well, of course. Apparently due to the lack of "dogfight" the Americans in a hurry began to fasten guns in any form to the "Phantoms". And the pilots nicknamed "Cruiseider" - "The Last Normal Fighter", implying the presence of powerful cannon armament, which allowed them to continue spinning the merry-go-round with MiGs after the missiles went into "milk". By the way, on "Discovery" I saw a documentary film, where the pilot of that very "Cruiseider" told how he twisted turns with the MiG-17, shooting from cannons. And such episodes were by no means rare
    In general, the topic of "dogfight" is very broad. It is from Vietnam that the legs of the fighters of the 4th generation grow, and the famous Top Gun school and Pugachev's Cobra, in fact, are the legacy of Vietnam, the answer to the F-15, which was supposed to maneuver the MiG-21.
    but nevertheless representing a considerable danger of medium-range air-to-air missiles. That is, talking about “dogfight” in this case is inappropriate at all.
    Vobbsche very interesting why the author ignores the Arab-Israeli conflicts? Probably because there are "dogfights" well, just a wagon and a small cart? Starting from the "six-day" war and ending with the battles in the Bekaa river valley, where the F-16's maneuverability said its weighty word.
    Anyway, has the author heard anything about the Iran-Iraq war? Where the f-5 was outplayed in close combat by the MiG-25s, and the MiG-21s were fought in the tail of the “Ali Ketov” f-14s, with the same maneuverability. The Falklands War, where the Harriers' pilots got the hang of controlling the nozzles, laying the prototype for a variable thrust vector. No? Did not hear? The Gulf War. And what does the author ask there? And there modern AIM-120 went into "milk" when firing at the maneuvering MiG-25. And the last conflict, between India and Pakistan, with a missile that went into "milk", when firing at a maneuvering Su-30.
    Now new short-range missiles, such as RVV-MD and AIM-9X no longer require a "carousel": they can be safely launched into the enemy's forehead with a high chance of defeating him. That's just the launch range on an ACTIVELY MANEUVERING target can drop to 60% and the all-aspect "Sidewidder" stupidly will not reach the target.
    According to a reputable publication by The Aviationist, at the U.S. Air Force Red Flag 17-01 exercises held in 2017, the latest fifth-generation American fighter F-35 (perhaps not without the help of F-22) defeated the enemy simulating the F-16 with an 15 score of 1 . “I didn’t even know that the enemy was nearby and didn’t understand who shot me down,” the American pilots who piloted in the F-35 exercises, which, incidentally, had completely modern radar stations, described their collisions with F-16.
    Of course he didn't know. And if you read the Indians, they "tore" the "Raptors" to shreds.
    [iYou can say even more simply: aerial stunts have little to do with war, as such. ] [/ i]
    Along the way, the author does not understand the difference between aerobatics and combat aerobatics. I remember Zimin, where in an air battle, either with the Romanians, or the Italians, the enemy began to write pirouettes in the air from the category of aerial acrobatics. Our pilot was surprised to observe the actions of the enemy, noting that he saw such a thing in battle for the first time. I wish the author not to be such an "Italian" writing a "pretzel" with a pen on a piece of paper.

    The future war, if unleashed, will be nuclear missile and will lead to the global destruction of all life on the planet. There will be no winners in it, because the aggressor and the victim will not survive much each other. In any case, the war, especially the world war, is a carefully planned event, the preparation of which will not be completely concealed. The blow must be delivered by all available means. With regard to aviation, this means that the maximum number of nuclear carriers (bombers) and fighters covering themselves must be lifted into the air. During their flight to the targets, a nuclear missile strike by land-based and sea-based ballistic missiles of the aggressor and a retaliatory strike by similar means of the victim follow.
    We all know the influence of the damaging factors of a nuclear explosion and it is reasonable to assume that in this case all electronic warfare equipment, air defense and aircraft avionics will be “cut down”, some of the aircraft will go off course or be destroyed and although the surviving pilots will nevertheless fulfill the task, they’ll be back no. In a word, almost like in a joke:

    “The captain of the nuclear submarine calls the start-up:
    - that it shocked us so sharply two minutes ago?
    - Yes, this ... a radiogram came to our old fellow Kovbasyuk that his wife had gone to Naples to rest with some kind of scumbag ..
    - Well?
    “So he is not there, Naples is now ... ..”

    Hence the conclusions:

    No. 1: In the event of a nuclear missile war, neither speed nor maneuverability will help planes. Those that were not in the air will burn in a nuclear flame on earth.

    No. 2. Fighter aircraft, as an effective means of armed struggle, can be used in local conflicts without the use of WMD. Perhaps that is why the number of fighters in the United States, Russia, and a number of European states is much less today than in the past war.

    Allegedly "stealth" of fighters, which the Americans advertise for their aircraft, is beginning to turn into a "diagnosis" for everyone who writes about modern aviation. The statements of specialists about the impossibility of building such an aircraft in principle are completely ignored. The aircraft is invisible on the radar only in the water case, when it is parked in the hangar.

While the American pilot fired and makes a missile defense missile maneuver, ours is forced to fly towards the target and illuminate it with the airborne radar.
    About the absence of rockets I shot and forgot, I had in mind medium-range missiles, and not near missiles with infrared seekers.

    Yeah, "let it go and forgot why you fired", you will shoot at the transports like that, but at the fighter you will have to accompany the target and adjust the airborne missile system nv trajectory until it reaches (if it does) the capture zone of the seeker, and this is not a fact that the communication channel will work as it should

    So planes armed with old Soviet P-27P missiles or American Sparrow missiles with semi-active homing radars run the risk of encountering more problems if they use more advanced missiles against them, such as RVV-AE, AIM-120 or MBDA Meteor. Not requiring radar "illumination" of the target until it is defeated, and not constraining a fighter pilot in a maneuver after launching a rocket.
    AGSN missiles do not require illumination only when firing at non-maneuvering targets. For some reason, everyone believes that the AGSN is such magic, missile-robot with AI. Nothing like this. AGSN is involved in the work at a distance of 5-10 km from the target, but at this point (which is 5-10 km from the target), the missile with AGSN still needs to be withdrawn. If shooting is carried out at a range of, for example, 50 km on a maneuvering target, then the lead point at which the AGSN is able to independently start work is constantly shifting - the target maneuvers. And to adjust the flight of the rocket, you need to highlight the target, continuously recalculate the flight parameters and transmit them to the rocket - which is exactly what the onboard radar of the attacking fighter does.
    We can say even more simply: aerial stunts have little to do with war, as such.
    If the author imagines maneuvering as aerial stunts, then this is lovely. You don't need to be a physicist to understand how a modern rocket is controlled and guided. Management is the constant correction of the error of aiming at the point of the intended meeting with the target. It is good when the target flies straight at the same altitude with a constant speed - in this case, the lead point calculated once does not need to be recalculated, and control is reduced to a single data entry into the rocket. And if the target maneuvers? No, he does not perform tricks and not with an overload of 10g, but performs turns in height and direction - what will happen to the lead point? This point will rush across the sky with a completely wild angular velocity relative to the attacking missile and the missile will appear and accumulate guidance errors. And if the rocket still needs to be driven into the target, then the attacker will have to constantly adjust the rocket's flight mission. And since no one knows how to predict the future, the correction of guidance errors always occurs with a lag (albeit in a split second). Physically correcting a missile guidance error is constant maneuvering that results in a loss of scarce energy that the missile never has in excess. Solid propellant rocket engines of modern missiles work for 3-5 seconds, and then by inertia - any extra maneuver is bad for the missile. And the loss of energy on the route is a decrease in speed and available congestion. The rocket may not reach the target at all. Especially if the shooting was carried out from a maximum distance at a non-maneuvering target, and then the target began to maneuver. Or if it does, then, as a result of energy consumption, it will not be able to properly screw onto the target already at the very end of the flight and will pass from the target further than the radio fuse will go off. And in this regard, literally at the very end of the missile's flight at the target, the target's ability to briefly turn a steep "super-maneuverable" bend may decide the matter not in favor of the missile.
    So maneuverability in any form will not be superfluous for the fighter. Dog fights just now are not fighter-fighter, but fighter-rocket. And it is not a fact that each rocket will always twist a fighter, especially if it will lose energy when firing at a long distance.

      Add.
      Over a long distance, it may well do the trick by shooting traps. Those. the algorithm is something like this: a rocket flies at us. The aircraft abruptly changes direction, and it is desirable as far as possible from the predicted (with a controlled thrust vector this is possible) and at the same time shoot the trap. As a result, as Since the rocket cannot calculate all possible changes in the flight (only the trajectory is extrapolated), the rocket switches to a trap (because it sees something at the supposed point).
      It should be borne in mind that the missile (and any air defense system) has its own scanning cycle. From here there are always moments when the missile actually does not see the target and in order to find it, it searches for the target along the calculated path.
      So it turns out that leaving the trap there we can (and go aside) confuse the rocket. And even if the rocket realizes that it was slipped into a trap, it will be too late, because the target will already go beyond the AGN review.


      The conclusion can be drawn as follows: Any characteristic of the aircraft, whether stealth or over-maneuverability - this is just an additional chance to survive the pilot. But how to take this chance is already a matter of pilot skill and luck.

    Many are skeptical, but dogfighting will revolutionize laser self-defense weapons on aircraft. It will definitely cover the topic of short-range missiles with optical/thermal seekers. Long- and medium-range missiles will also have a hard time - they will need to be equipped with anti-laser protection, and this is not silver or foil, but several layers of heat-conducting/non-heat-conducting refractory materials or ablative protection. Because of this, V-V missiles will lose maneuverability. It would seem that in this case, a maneuverable aircraft has a better chance of “twisting” the missile, but due to the possibility of approaching and the impact of the aircraft on the aircraft itself, it will also need to be equipped with protection, only this time capable of withstanding multiple takeoffs and landings, flight in different modes , which will also make the plane heavier.

    Let's see what the appearance of LO on airplanes will lead to; this should happen already in the period 2025-2030. Then it will be possible to draw preliminary conclusions about which forecasts will come true.

    There is no need for maneuverability!!! when to bomb a weak enemy without air defense. But when it’s a real mess, there’s a radar and a bunch of enemies and who the hell knows what weapons they’re not talking about. A guided missile is a set of microcircuits and sensors, it wakes up something that jams/fires/deceives and all this dynamite flies into nowhere and there is only a machine gun, then let’s say there is no radar, but you shot the missiles and the enemy is still there - what do you tell him, wait comrade Am I cones cones for a break? Next, let’s take the current invisibility, which is what the United States is betting on. in real battles this is dust, it will fly off after 2 hours of flight! it operates at unlimited speeds and without maneuverability and for no more than 2 hours and then it needs air conditioning, in general this machine requires maintenance, which is very difficult in wartime!!! when they can turn off the electricity in the same Alabuga.

    Yes, there were cases when, while looping, the hare left the shot from the AK (even the lineup) - there is a witness (Yasha Polunin from 2 MSB 272 MSP). But another thing is when a high-speed rocket catches up with an aircraft with a high degree of target retention. The surviving guys after the duel: the stinger against the helicopter, can confirm.

    May my enemy be strong and terrible. If I overcome it, I will not feel shame.
    But the Americans are simply obliged to constantly feel shame. All countries against which they started a war opposed the svor and were much weaker in economic terms.
    This American feature of warfare guarantees Russia a relative period of calm from “partner military harassment,” although attacks by satellites are possible.

    "...there were cases when a looping hare evaded a shot from an AK (even a burst)..."
    Unfortunately, the hare has no chance against firearms. Well, except when the shooter is drunk or, for example, firing a burst. I realized this about 30 years ago and gave up hunting. Now - either with a camera or go to hell. I’d rather eat a doshirak than take the life of a child of Nature.

    Some rely on maneuverability, others on stealth - whichever technology they achieve success with is the one they use. But in reality, there may be many different extraneous factors that will give an advantage to some and neutralize it for others.

    Peak has a peak power of 4-6 MW, but the principle also works here.
    Visibility decreases in proportion to the root of the 4th degree from the reduction of the EPR. For example, by reducing the EPR by 4096 times, the detection range will become less than 8 times. In addition, the radar characteristics indicate the minimum EPR of the target, of the order of 0,1-0,5 square meters.

    It seems to me that in my first comment I clearly spoke about the role of aviation in a nuclear missile war. I would like to give some explanations regarding fighter aircraft in a local military conflict and dwell on the technical aspect of the problem.

    Inscribe the projection of the airplane (rear view) into the center of an arbitrary circle and lightly shade it. Call this circle the zone of destruction of the aircraft by the warhead elements of the missile. “Air-to-air” or “ground-to-air” - it doesn’t matter yet. Regardless of where the seeker is located (an attacking aircraft or a missile), this seeker must “lock on” the target. After “capture,” the signal is sent through control circuits to the contacts of the warhead fuse. If the contacts had closed immediately, both the plane and the missile would have been blown apart. This does not happen because the control system counts the distance to the target and the time until the fuse contacts finally close. This is similar to a hand grenade's delay, but unlike it, the rocket's fuze will only fire when the target's projection matches its mark on the sight. For a passive homing head, this is monitored by the pilot; for an active homing head, this is done by the missile control system. I will not dwell on which GOS is better, realizing that you will figure this out without me.
    Let's talk about something else. Having received a signal about enemy radar exposure, the attacked aircraft must perform an evasive maneuver. This is the so-called anti-aircraft or anti-missile maneuver. I emphasize – MANEUVER. This is a set of actions. which the pilot practices until automatic throughout his entire service. It is different for different aircraft, but one thing is common - it is a sharp maneuver aimed at changing the spatial position of the aircraft and creating conditions under which the missile “loses its target.”
    The longer the rocket body, the more sensitive it is to lateral overloads. I will say that the most complex aircraft for air defense in the early 60s was the AN-2, which, by reducing speed to a minimum and literally turning “on the spot”, broke the surface-to-air missile like a match, but the IL-28 can be made I couldn’t do this anymore. Thus, THE EFFECTIVENESS OF AN EVADERATION MANEUVER IS HIGHER, THE LOWER THE SPEED OF THE MACHINE.
    The designers tried in different ways to reduce the speed of the car, understanding that having reduced it, they then needed to quickly pick it up again. By using a variable-sweep wing on 3rd generation aircraft, it was possible to partially increase the efficiency of the maneuver. In Syria, a Su-22 pilot, being attacked by an American F-16, changed the sweep in combination with firing infrared decoys, and evaded the fired AIM-9 Sidewinder. Working at ultra-low altitudes, the Syrian pilot preferred to escape with a climb and “exposed” himself to attack by an AIM-120 medium-range missile, but even in this case, the pilot acted calmly, managed to eject and survive. The plane is a piece of iron, they will give you another, but for a broken one they give two undamaged ones! The Egyptian MiG-21 and MiG-23 MLD in 1971 were not inferior to the Israeli F-15 and F-16 in air battles over the Bekaa Valley.

    Generally speaking, pilots know how to use complex and aerobatic maneuvers in combat. In practice, it was found that when performing individual maneuvers, the aircraft briefly assumed a spatial position in which the rudders of the air-to-air missile lost their effectiveness and it became possible to evade such missiles. This position of the aircraft began to be associated with reaching supercritical angles of attack and called this property SUPERMANEUVERABILITY. Today, only a few 4++ generation fighters have the capability of super-maneuverability, and, according to competent experts, the best among them are the Russian SU-30SM and SU-35. The Russian 5th generation fighter SU-57, shown at MAKS 2019, is promising.
    In 2019, the Indian SU-30MKI in an air battle against Pakistani F-16s, using super-maneuverability, successfully evaded 6 AIM-120 medium-range missiles fired at it.
    The use of stealth technology can be considered camouflage. Why does a fighter need camouflage? Since modern air combat takes place beyond line of sight, stealth is needed in order to covertly approach a target in an air battle and deliver an accurate strike. It is impossible to make an aircraft completely stealthy, but visibility can be reduced in various ways (applying special coatings, using composite materials, manufacturing individual structural elements of a certain configuration, etc.). It is known that the Indians were offered to modernize the Mig-21, reducing its visibility by more than 10 times, but they refused. saying that they already have Tejas.

    The design features of modern fighters place increased demands on pilot training. This is a well-known fact. The main thing is that young people want and can become one. You need strict selection, intensive training, the ability to fly a lot and often, in simple and difficult weather conditions.

    Unlike the author of the article, I believe that for a modern fighter the main ones should be:
    • Speed;
    • Maneuverability;
    • Simplicity and ease of operation;
    • Modern and compact avionics;
    • Reliable and effective weapons, communications, emergency
    crew rescue;
    • Stealth.

    The article is amazingly one-sided.. Almost a reprint of American propaganda articles.. There seems to be no talk about the existence of an anti-missile maneuver.. As well as about the real conditions in which a fighter may not turn on the radar, for example.. Because if it does turn it on, it will stealth disappears.. The speeds of fighters and electronic warfare systems are not taken into account, especially when using special electronic warfare aircraft.. Not even a spherical horse in a vacuum.. More like pulling an owl onto a globe..

    When creating the 21st moment, they also thought so. Then, when it came to the dog dumps, the recklessness of such a decision came out. Of course, missiles have come a long way since those times, but maneuverability and defenses have also increased. There is no such thing yet that it fired a missile and was guaranteed to shoot it down under any conditions, and it is not a fact that this will happen in the future.

    The author is unfounded, presenting his thoughts as truth. Moreover, there is an obvious falsification of facts. Does the author know that it was the 5th generation Raptor fighter (and not the Lightning semi-attack aircraft) that was developed for super maneuverability? Does he know that this is precisely the quality that the creators of the Su-57 are emphasizing? Of course he knows, but he blatantly lies to the readers’ eyes, saying that modern fighters are developed without regard to maneuverability. Also, for some reason, he did not talk about another exercise, where the F-35 just drained the F-16. He also did not talk about the delights of American life during training with the Indians.

      Yes, the Americans tried to combine super-maneuverability and invisibility, but they couldn’t, it doesn’t work. They sacrificed maneuverability and we sacrificed invisibility. But the Americans think that this is better and the author agrees with them, perhaps he is right.

    How to evade an enemy missile - there is a well-known formula - it requires maneuver and interference.
    I would put it differently: to evade a missile, you need to reduce visibility and maneuver. In turn, visibility is determined both by the size of the target (effective scattering surface in the radio spectrum of waves - ESR) and by the interference situation.
    If they don’t see us, then jamming and intensive maneuvering are not required. An example of this concept is the F-117.
    If the aircraft is not visible, but close-range combat is possible, then the protective factors are invisibility and moderate maneuver. An example of this concept is the F-22, whose maneuverability remains at the level of 4th generation aircraft.
    If the aircraft is not very noticeable, but jamming is a key additional factor of protection, while the maneuverability capabilities are weak. An example of this concept is the F-35.
    A modern missile with an active homing head (ARGS) is controlled for most of its trajectory using information from the control point. This could be the carrier aircraft that launched the missile, or another aircraft to which control was transferred.
    If control is transferred, the aircraft can perform an evasive maneuver without fear of guidance failure. Otherwise, he needs to follow the missile, getting closer to the enemy.
    Further, at the moment the ARGS captures the target, information from the carrier or control point is not required.
    For a target with an ESR of 1m2, this is about 12 km. (targets are approximate and are not tied to any specific missile). From the radar formula it follows that by reducing the EPR by 100 times, the acquisition range will decrease by 3 times. That is, for our case, up to 4 km. When launched from a range of 100 km, the capture range is 4 km. Which in real conditions will lead to a large linear span, for which the rocket’s energy reserve may not be sufficient for the available overload.
    If anyone is interested, you can play with the EPR value of the F-22, F-35, Su-27, and Su-57 aircraft.

    You forget that photon radars are on the way. Quite a few have abandoned the f35. That is, it is easier to develop a new radar than to build a complex and expensive airframe with its own shortcomings. Plus the war strategy: ours is defensive - therefore, there may be powerful ground stations nearby on the ground

    As idiots write pseudo-scientific articles, especially about weapons, they had enough strength to read until the moment where the pilot of the Fu-16 says that he didn’t even know that he was being attacked. Did the Fu-35 pilot find him using telepathy? Or is there no warning about radar exposure on the Fu-16? Have you ever tried to write science fiction?

    Maneuverability and super-maneuverability are still valuable.
    1. Medium-range missiles are quite inert at the final stage of flight - the engine has already worked... The maneuver reduces the effective range of the missile by several times.
    2. In conditions of stealth, electronic warfare and other things, the range of mutual detection and, more importantly, target acquisition is reduced to 30-50 kilometers (range of OLS operations) and the range of effective destruction can be even less - anti-missiles, jamming...
    3. The direction of the radar is not 360 degrees. More precisely, it is not uniform in a circle - in a relatively narrow sector “forward” the radar sees hundreds of kilometers, but “sideways” and “backwards” - less. So it can be useful to “look around” the aircraft. The level of visibility also differs from different angles by orders of magnitude.

    As a result, with EQUAL capabilities of weapons and systems, the super-maneuverable vehicle will win.

    I looked at what is publicly available regarding the capture range of missiles with ARGS.
    According to AMRAAM -
    The target acquisition range with EPR = 3 m² is about 16-18 km.
    According to R-77 (RVV-AE) - The target acquisition range with an EPR equal to 5 m² is 16 km.
    There are also such figures - The target acquisition range with an EPR equal to 3 m² is 15 km.

    1. Melee in our time is already such an exotic thing that spending machine resources on it, IMHO, is an inadmissible luxury.

    This exotic will occur approximately on the 3-4th day of a total war, if anyone survives, of course.

    In a rapidly changing world, betting on one thing means losing tomorrow. Imagine the appearance of an aircraft radar that doesn’t care about stealth. Or an electronic warfare system that will turn off all homing. What then will remain f35? Now it seems fantastic. The same as a homing missile with a range of 100 km during the Second World War. We need to develop all areas without distortions and sacrifices. Otherwise, it’s strange that all US military aircraft do not replicate the F-117.

    If I understood everything correctly, then we are screwed. All our Su are flying junk, which will be destroyed immediately on takeoff by the Americans at 35x. Our aviation designers and generals are a bunch of mediocrities who still live in the realities of the 60s. Our pilots are only capable of putting on a show for gullible buyers and selling them flying targets in exchange for oil. America rules! Am I right? Is this what the article is about?

    all this blah blah blah... only war will show... invisibility can also show its advantages only with a large confluence of factors. It is this very confluence of factors (radars-missiles-air defense-avaxes-communications-jammers-artificial intelligence-training of pilots and technical personnel-location of airfields) that will ensure victory. Wars are won by armies, not by maneuverability or stealth.

    Apart from “horror,” the article does not cause anything, it is not even clear why the author is not the head of the design bureau, here is M.P. Simonov argued the opposite. Many people here have already written more competently than me, with formulas, etc. etc., super-maneuverability, in my amateurish opinion, removes the restriction on maneuver, that is, the pilot does not have to think whether he has already exceeded the capabilities of the machine or not yet - but simply do the “work”. British pilot John Farley noted this precisely with the SU -27.

    It’s funny to read this nonsense that maneuverability is not important for a fighter. At least the officer became familiar with the tasks for which the fighter was intended. This is the same as writing about the reliability of an AK is not the most important characteristic. Some of the authors in the military review have gone crazy, and most likely are simply incompetent in this matter. Where are the designers who pay special attention to this particular characteristic compared to our sofa experts, whose sofas were stolen long ago? Military review has become nonsense.

    The effectiveness of new missiles with an active radar homing head is demonstrated, in particular, by the destruction of an Indian MiG-21 by a Pakistani F-16 fighter (shot down on February 27, 2019 by an AIM-120C missile), as well as the downing of a Syrian Su-22 by an AIM-120 missile (June 18, 2017 of the year).


    Tell me, author, why don’t you write that the Syrian Su-22 was shot down in ideal conditions for the attacker, even with the second missile.
    And about the Indian battle, I can definitely say that we still don’t know anything, neither the number of launches, nor, of course, the ranges.
