In Russia, looking for a replacement for "Corn"

85
One of the eternal themes of modern Russia is talk about the revival of the small aviation and the creation of a new light regional aircraft. At the next round story Went on Sunday, 25 of August 2019 of the year when the RIA agency News referring to the press service of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation, it announced that a new regional aircraft will be created in the country, designed to carry 9-14 people. Actually, the replacement is being prepared for the famous An-2 Corn, not news for the past several decades, only the timing of the launch of the production and the name of potential replacement aircraft are changing.


Light multi-purpose aircraft An-2




In the meantime, the An-2 long-lived aircraft remains the main workhorse of domestic small aviation, which first flew up to the sky back in 1947. Serial production of this aircraft was completely completed in the USSR in the 1971 year, while under license, the aircraft continued to be assembled in Poland and China. Despite its more than venerable age, according to the information of FSUE SibNIA named after S.A. Chaplygin, in the middle of 2017, about 90 percent of all tasks of small aviation in the Russian Federation are still carried out by light multi-purpose An-2 aircraft, which are popularly nicknamed "Annushka" and "Corn".

With the replacement of the An-2 will be determined in September 2019 of the year


Specialists of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia plan to make a decision about which light aircraft will eventually replace the old An-2 in September of the 2019, which was announced recently by the press service of the ministry. 1,25 billion rubles has been allocated from the budget for experimental design work on the creation of a new light-engine aircraft. Moreover, it is already known that when creating a new aircraft, the best practices, technical solutions and the whole backlog obtained during the creation of the TVS-2DTS Baikal aircraft will be used. The development of this experimental machine with the widespread use of composite materials in construction has been done for a long time by aviation specialists from SibNIA from Novosibirsk.

At the same time, it was previously stated several times that this particular model of the aircraft, TVS-2DTS, would go into mass production, although the launch dates were postponed several times. So, back in April 2018 of the year, the official website of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia reported that serial production of the new TVS-2DTS aircraft, created by specialists of the Siberian Aviation Research Institute, will begin in Ulan-Ude on the basis of the local aviation plant, which is part of the Helicopters Corporation Of Russia. ” It was planned to start serial production of a new small-engine small aircraft in the 2021 year, and Polar Airlines from Yakutia were to become the first operator of the new aircraft.

Now, in the best case, the start of mass production of a new aircraft is shifting to the end of the 2022 of the year. This term was indicated by the Russian Deputy Prime Minister and Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy to the Far Eastern Federal District, Yuri Trutnev, who visited the aviation plant in Ulan-Ude in July 2019. According to a senior official, the end of the 2022 of the year is the deadline set by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia and the aircraft factory.


Light multi-purpose aircraft TVS-2DTS


If in April 2018 of the year the Ministry of Industry and Trade said that it was TVS-2DTS that went into serial production, in August of 2019 of the year it became known that the decision on the fate of this aircraft and which technological features of this project would be used in creating a new car has not yet been adopted. The Rossiyskaya Gazeta in the Ministry of Industry and Trade was told that TVS-2DTS is an experimental model of an aircraft that was created to practice new technologies. Taking into account the technical backlog obtained under this project, a new production aircraft is being created under the LMS program (light multi-purpose aircraft).

So far, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia is looking for a R&D contractor to create a replacement for the outdated multi-purpose An-2 aircraft. It is expected that the contractor by December 2019 will present a general view of the new aircraft, as well as a set of outline design documentation. By September next year, a set of design documentation for a prototype of a new light multi-purpose aircraft should be ready, and it is planned to assemble a prototype of the aircraft by the end of the 2020 of the year.

Why TVS-2DTS from serial to experimental


The aircraft, which over the past few years has been touted as a potentially production model to replace the An-2 and actively participated in various exhibitions and air shows, suddenly turned into an experimental machine. It is no secret to anyone that it is extremely difficult to understand the decisions of the Russian government and it seems that this is exactly the case. The plane, which they wanted to assemble in series in Ulan-Ude, suddenly ceased to satisfy the state with something. Why there was another shift in the launch dates for the series and a new R&D contract with a total value of more than a billion rubles appeared, we can only speculate.

It is only known for certain that TVS-2DTS surpassed the legendary Kukuruznik in its flight performance. So, the cruising speed of the car increased to 330 km / h, the ferry range to 4500 km, and the payload to 3,5 tons. The features of the Novosibirsk aircraft included a new wing, a “glass” cockpit and a new fuselage. The highlight of the aircraft was to be the widespread use of composite materials. And the use of modern avionics made it possible to operate the aircraft at any time of the day and made it all-weather.


Light multi-purpose aircraft TVS-2DTS


True, the story with the Superjet is repeated here, when the aircraft is Russian only on paper. In fact, the heart of the TVS-2DTS was supposed to be the American Honeywell TPE331-12UAN multi-fuel turboprop engine, developing power up to 1100 hp and allowing the plane to fly on kerosene and gasoline. The five-blade propeller and the aircraft equipment complex were also developed by the Americans, Hartzell Propeller Inc was involved in the production of the propeller, and Garmin was the avionics company. Separate mention should be made of composite materials; the new aircraft was planned to be made integral. And here again it is not a fact that it was a question of the Russian composite. As the Far Eastern editorial office of RBC wrote back in 2018, the creators of the aircraft refused to use the Russian composite because of its high cost.

In recent Russian history, such a scheme for organizing production has not taken off on the example of the Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft, from 55 to 80 percent of the filling of which in different years was foreign components. Such a scheme for a small aircraft is fraught with even greater problems with the supply of spare parts, repair and maintenance, as well as the choice of repair plants themselves. Separately, one can note the story of the Russian medium-range airliner MS-21, the main feature of which was to become a composite wing. At the same time, the start of mass production of the airliner was postponed for at least a year due to the US refusal to supply composite materials, American sanctions were to blame. Initially, the manufacturer relied on composite materials of American and Japanese production by Hexcel and Toray Industries, respectively.

Perhaps the TVS-2DTS project was faced with the same problem as its older brother. At the same time, the aircraft initially did not fit well with the import substitution policy declared by the Russian government. Probably, it was precisely the large share of foreign components and materials, as well as the increasing cost of the aircraft, that caused the Ministry of Industry and Trade to initiate a new R&D stage to create a light multi-purpose aircraft. Most likely, the novelty will be distinguished by a large volume of domestic components and assemblies.

Russia just needs small aircraft


Such a country as Russia, small aviation is vitally necessary, it is clear to any person who studied geography at school. The size of the country initially contributed to the development of air service. Many regions of Russia are larger than certain countries of the world, for example, not the largest Udmurtia is 1,5 times larger than Belgium and slightly larger than Holland in area, and the neighboring Kirov region is already three times larger in area than the home of the Kalashnikov assault rifle. Needless to say, both of these subjects of the federation today simply do not have small aircraft. A resident of the Soviet Union could easily afford a flight from Samara to Saratov, having traveled about 440 km by air. Today, in order to fly from a million-plus city to a city with a population of almost 850 thousand people, it is necessary to make a flight with a transfer in Moscow with a total duration of 11 hours, is this not a miracle. Today it is commonplace for a country in which 1400 remains from 200 small aviation aerodromes and not all of these two hundred are actively operated.



Although in some form small aviation has been preserved in the Far North, Siberia and the Far East of the country, where it often remains the only means of delivering passengers and goods to remote settlements. Specialists of the Ministry of Industry and Trade note that more than 28 of thousands of settlements in Russia today do not have ground communications, that is, they are cut off from the "big land", and in the 15 Russian regions small aircraft are the main component of the transport system. That is why the aircraft, which should come to replace the An-2, is of such great importance.

Today, the brainchild of Antonov Design Bureau, created at the end of the 1940's, remains the main workhorse of small aircraft, but the number of Kukuruznikov in Russia is only slightly larger than 200 units, all of these aircraft must be changed. In an interview with the newspaper “Vzglyad”, the observer of the magazine “Arsenal of the Fatherland” and aviation expert Dmitry Drozdenko noted that in Yakutia, whose territory is larger than India, the authorities sounded the alarm last year. Today, in this region, which is very dependent on small aircraft, 80 percent of the fleet is aircraft aged over 30 years. According to the expert, by 2026 the fleet of local aviation, represented by An-24, An-2 aircraft and Mi-8 helicopters, will have to be completely written off.

Attempts to create a new aircraft for small aircraft in Russia or to launch mass production of foreign counterparts have already been made many times. Only from 2008 of the year in Russia were the projects of the Rysachok plane of Tekhnoavia company, Expedition of the private MVEN company from Kazan, as well as options for serial assembly in Canada of Canadian Twin Otter and American Cessna discussed. All these projects ended in nothing. Separately, we can single out the localization of production in Russia of the regional twin-engine Czech aircraft L-410 with 19 passengers, which nevertheless began to be collected individually by piece in Yekaterinburg in 2018 on the basis of the Ural Civil Aviation Plant.


L-410 assembled at the Ural Civil Aviation Plant


The main problem that prevents Russia from developing small aircraft and finally creating a new aircraft for it, most experts consider the low solvency of the country's inhabitants. The population, which should be the main consumer of this service, is characterized by weak purchasing power. The small aviation market collapsed. Today, local airlines account for only three percent of Russian passenger traffic. It turns out a vicious circle when airlines do not need to buy airplanes for such flights, but the Russian aviation industry does not need to produce them, there is no demand - there is no supply. The country cannot get out of this trap from 1991 of the year. And if Russian industry is ever able to cope with the technical side of the problem and still create a new small aircraft, then how to make the prices of airline tickets affordable for the general public at a time when real incomes of citizens are declining for five consecutive years is still a mystery .

    In Russia, looking for a replacement for "Corn"

    They’re not looking there. He had to look for a replacement back in 2008.
    As for the production of domestic aircraft, everything has been known for a long time - a Russian aircraft should not contain foreign "spare parts". This is not a Lego set.
    One of the eternal themes of modern Russia - it's talk about the revival of small aircraft and the creation of a new light regional aircraft.

            In the 20s and 30s of the USSR, without its own technologies, it purchased licenses with factories in the West. If today you want to make an airplane, a complex machine tool or a car entirely from domestic components, then this project will fail, because in Russia, nothing is almost independently produced.

Enough here already to tell tales about "besserebrennikov". Party-Komsomolsky smoothly migrated from the leadership of the CPSU to the management of business. Members of lower rank, who did not get a piece of industrial assets, successfully began to trade in the interests of the country. I agree, not all communists were like that. But the most "successful" part managed to bring production in Russia to a state of coma. And talking about the First Ones, who died in the clinic in line, is tantamount to a 5-year-old child who fell from the 12th floor and remained alive and well. That is, there were cases, but only as an extreme exception.

    "Russia simply needs small aircraft", and does not argue with this. To begin with, let them try to reproduce the AN-2, according to the latest documents with the possibility of maximum modernization from the domestic one, as they did with the TU-160. And it may turn out that there is no need to develop it properly. That we have few aviation universities and enterprises, as in the days of Comrade Stalin, announce a competition, conditionally call the project Anna. The AN-2 was designed using only a slide rule, which with modern computers will become very difficult.

          Now it’s easier to make long-range ALCMs - and launch them from a large subsonic carrier from outside the enemy’s air defense. It’s better that autopilots go to the target in the WWII, bypass the air defense positions, interfere and die on the way to the target — than live crews.

    In the USSR, when the Germans seized the main aluminum capacities of the country, concentrated in the Ukrainian SSR, they began to build aircraft from what was - wood, fabric, a welded frame made of steel pipes, and what else was there. Maybe they didn't fly as well as the aluminum ones could, but nevertheless they flew and fired. Is there a shortage of wood in Russia? Or did the invaders take over the aluminum factories? Well, they don't supply an American composite - what, there is nothing to replace the word "absolutely"?
    True, under Stalin, engineers (of course, not ordinary, not young specialists) were paid so much that they could buy Pobeda, and, having worked hard, and ZiM. Now what can an engineer with 5-10 years of experience afford? Used Lada?

      During the Second World War, aluminum was used for the legendary Katyushas, ​​the fastest and highest-altitude MiG fighters, tanks, self-propelled guns, ships, soldiers' bowlers and flasks. Every fourth aircraft was made of Kuznetsk aluminum. This was a great contribution to the victory.

    The main problem that prevents Russia from developing small aircraft and finally creating a new aircraft for it, most experts consider the low solvency of the country's inhabitants. The population, which should be the main consumer of this service, is characterized by weak purchasing power. The small aviation market collapsed. Today, local airlines account for only three percent of Russian passenger traffic. It turns out a vicious circle when airlines do not need to buy airplanes for such flights, but the Russian aviation industry does not need to produce them, there is no demand - there is no supply.
    A somewhat controversial statement. It is simply impossible to get out of most settlements of the Far North and the Far East, except by air transport (from the word with everything). In Yakutia, for example, "gray aviation" is flourishing, which is not regulated or monitored by the state at all. And direct prices depend on the greed of the monopolists (there is no competition, usually only one airline operates in the territories). For example, a ticket for the Keperveyem (Chukotka) -Magadan flight (1 km) costs from 185 rubles to 29000 rubles, and a ticket for the Magadan-Moscow flight (40000 km) can be bought for 10-118 rubles.

    To tell you the truth, the characteristics are not a fountain, the biplane scheme and the expensive gluttonous motor are also affecting, and I do not know what else is there. But with such data, the road was ordered to small aviation. Fuel consumption of 100-150 liters per 100 km is not a large carrying capacity, not a lot of speed, well, and 2 pilots who also require money. So imagine how much a ticket costs. I like the American Sesna 402 more. 2 engines of 300 horses. 450 km cruising speed, up to 10 passengers; ceiling up to 8 km; consumption up to 50 liters. crew of 1 person and the price in a not rich configuration is normal

    Well, if the import substitution is a strange decision:

    - Avionics, you can replace it with domestic complexes, well, it will increase in price by 30-40% in terms of indicator, because there prices are breaking well. Either return the Alarms, even used earphones can be twisted either from zips, then the price will drop. How will this change in LMS ??? Domestic producer will reduce the price by 30-40%? Or remake for alarms?

    - Composites, other types of composites are needed there, not as highly loaded as those of the MS-21. Moreover, the assembly and molding scheme itself is different there. Actually, Ulan-Ude (helicopter plant) was chosen because there is a developed and modern (already in the 10's modernization) composite workshop and extensive experience in this topic. I admit that European-Japanese are in the prototype, for price-quality-weight. However, how will this change in LMS? The transition to Luminiy, but then again, at the time, Antonov made an all-metal aircraft and it was APPROVED, while the combat Yaki-9 / La and even the firstborn of the Yak-15 / 17 jet school were assembled with wooden consoles and tails. That is, the deficient Dural was allocated to an agricultural rural plane, when the programs for transferring combat aircraft to an all-metal construction were slowed down. Also now - you can return to Luminium = as Antonov would have done wooden AN-2 in due time. Immediately increase in mass, increasing requirements for the landing strip, reducing payload and thrust-weight ratio. Actually, why then was it worth spending money on fuel assemblies ???

    - engine. Here, in general, everything is elementary. Engines on 1000 + hp weighing less than 200kg is not even in development. That is, the LMS will receive the same motor (with declared 9-14 people) - simply because there is NO CHOICE. VK-800 - but he’s 800l.s, that is, he won’t pull the car on 9-14 people, he’s not included in the voiced TK. TVs - on the contrary, they are too powerful. They are no longer needed for such an aircraft. This immediately + 1t take-off weight only due to the giant engine and engine mounts. And to carry 9-14 people on them is only in business class wassat . For if the capacity is doubled, then we must use it. Well, it will be expensive, eat more significantly, the service is unbearable.

In summer, the composition of OKB-153 was relocated to Kiev. (Thanks to the father of the native Trotskyist Khrushchev).

      You all get in the way under one word COMPOSITE. A composite is all in a row, for example, models of ships / planes are made of composites, not those that fly, but those that stand in the window.

      Pour epoxy + on top throw fibers (fiberglass, wood or plastic) and another layer of epoxy, and then press and dry = here is the composite too.

      There are no problems with the marine composite; a lot of boats are made of it. Yes, the same stomps of Alexandrite.
      No problem with a bunch of different composites.

      Have problems with some species highly loaded materials and resins for them. That is, if we make of the material that the blades for the helicopter, the wing for the MS-21 = it will not be needed by anyone, because it is expensive, heavy and such supplies are simply not needed there. It is necessary to make a lightweight composite - so that it can withstand 25 years of intensive flights without the formation of supercritical cracks (and the blade of a wing in flight), while it was as light as possible both in itself and in terms of design. Therefore, the developers turned to the leaders in the segment - to get the most resourceful and lightest wing. Using other fibers and resins - the wing will be heavier / less resourceful.

          I wrote above - 100500 different composites. But if you make a wing out of them, it will either come out harder than that of luminium (which resets the whole venture) or it will fall off in flight in the first years of operation (regular replacement of the wing - even to replace power elements and cracking = zero out the whole venture).

          Here are light fibers and normal resins, in combination giving a light, sufficient strength and resource for bending wing, in Russia there. And in general, they are not particularly around the world. Watermelon and Boeing are purchased from the same companies from which Irkut was purchased.

          It could be assembled from Chinese. Or weld the resin itself + use Rostekhov fibers. But there already hurt the benefits of the MS-21 is drastically reduced. Therefore, at the design stage, we chose the best possible indicators. Now how to get out, it’s interesting. For, again - a different composition is not only new static tests for certification, but also at least significant changes in the wing. If it gets heavier even by 15%, then the attractiveness of the aircraft for AK will drop significantly.

    most experts consider the low solvency of the country's inhabitants. The population, which should be the main consumer of this service, is characterized by weak purchasing power. The small aviation market collapsed.

    the author carries some nonsense.
    small aircraft die for other reasons
    1. legislation and taxes. There is not much freedom of flight. If you urgently need to break somewhere and fly, it is quite likely that the pilot will not have time to coordinate the departure and will have a choice - to disrupt his plans or to be outlawed. Relative freedom is an essential condition for existence.
    I developed a private small aircraft. The same problem with the requirements for the duration of the pilot's license.
    For the most primitive segments, there should be a liberalization of conditions.
    The problem is with amphibious aircraft. Personally, I absolutely do not understand with whom to coordinate and by what rules to carry out, for example, landing on the Neva.
    2. market conditions - when an airplane is on the market 1.5 million rubles, and a monthly rental of a place in the hangar where it is based costs 16 thousand rubles, what kind of payback can we talk about? And so many services are overpriced.
    The unjustified costs of services for small aircraft should be greatly reduced so that it becomes sane, at the level of prices for servicing business class cars. The same applies to fuel - both the price of it and the availability of high-octane grades.
    3. The big problem is the loss of the repair base for equipment, a noticeable shortage of competent specialists.
    Unjustified costs for small aircraft should be greatly reduced

    And purchasing power is only in 4th place. It is clear that for the development of small aircraft, the population does not need to have the profit of the drug lords, something more modest should be enough.

In the Tu-160 except the glider, what remains the same? And what did they do to him? Implemented the backlog of the USSR? And is not PAK YA designed to replace the outdated conceptually Tu-160?

    So no one, Andrei, speaks about the 1: 1 reproduction of the AN-2. But the composite (and expensive) "Baikal" is also not an option. Cars for MVL are needed. For with large areas of regions (edges), the outskirts are simply torn off from the center. Alternatively, the reproduction of a machine of the AN-2 type in mass quantities. Then machines of the BE-30 (BE-32) type instead of the previously operated Czech L-410. The third stage - machines of the AN-24 and YAK-40 class. And then, if you really want to, and 4-6 seater cars like Western "Cessna". But this must be done, not just making plans.
    A childhood memory when I went with my grandfather to the airfield to see "the planes". Okay, there are machines like IL-14 or IL-18. So there was a huge number of cars such as AN-2 and even Czech air taxi "Morava" (EMNIP)
    There were absolutely no problems getting from one oblast (regional center) to another. Everything depended on desire. If you want it - 7 hours by bus or 10 by train, if you want - forty minutes by plane.
    Now the MVL between the regions is practically reduced to zero. Out of transport, autobots, minibus or train remained. And this is in our open spaces. But there are regions where there are only 1-2 branches of railways. The rest is roads. And earlier, MVL aircraft also flew

    My uncle in the late 50s and early 60s, being the head of the regional bureau of forensic medical examination of the Karachay-Cherkess Autonomous Region of the Stavropol Territory, had a ZIM as an official vehicle. From childhood memories - in the late 50s - early 60s rarely, but there were taxis and ambulances. There were probably very, very few private ones. in total ZIMs were produced less than 22 thousand in 10 years

    I flew more than once on the AN 2 in both the passenger and cargo versions (it feels like flying on a tractor), comrades with sensitive vestibular hardware puke in packages - beauty.

    Leonid Rutkovsky Not a bad article, but again with omissions. The main axis of reasoning is airplanes for the needs of the national economy, and this is where everything loops. Discussions about how good everything was after 1947 and it is worth returning to this. With rare exceptions, at least someone is trying to say that. that by planes, especially in small ones. aviation is operated by qualified pilots and serviced by equally qualified technicians. Today there is neither one nor the other. No one has been preparing them for a long time. And what is prepared in flight clubs and technical schools cannot be called specialists. Although graduation diplomas are on the same cardboard. If you do not consider the problem as a whole, you get a story when "Masha is at home - Bear is not, and vice versa." To produce even the best airplane without quality education and training of flight and technical personnel is a great folly.

    Is it not expensive to fly through all sorts of villages and camps? It cost fuel in Sovka.

    It is no secret to anyone that it is extremely difficult to understand the decisions of the Russian government and it seems that this is exactly the case.

    Well, in this case, you don’t need to dig so deep:
    1. The banal scenario "no money ..." is quite likely.
    2. The scenario is even more likely that the Government is once again stupidly nah $ @ whether: they said that the plane was about-almost-quite-ready-almost ... but it turned out that it wasn’t ... This is all the more likely , what
    The features of the Novosibirsk aircraft included a new wing, a “glass” cockpit and a new fuselage. The highlight of the aircraft was to be the widespread use of composite materials. And the use of modern avionics made it possible to operate the aircraft at any time of the day and made it all-weather.

    All this, damn it, is just inevitable for our "small" aviation!
    They are there, right, that's right, just-without-THIS and cannot live ...

    a bit off-the-point commentary, but on the topic.
    they found a replacement for corn in 1960 - this is Leonid Ilyich Brezhnev. laughing

    So no one, Andrei, speaks about the 1: 1 reproduction of the AN-2. But the composite (and expensive) "Baikal" is also not an option. Cars for MVL are needed. For with large areas of regions (edges), the outskirts are simply torn off from the center. Alternatively, the reproduction of a machine of the AN-2 type in mass quantities.

    the problem is that the an-2 for "today" is expensive to operate.
    and a more advanced aircraft with a significant share of foreign components is very expensive.
    as a result, both of them are not very good.
    the situation can be greatly improved by liberalization of taxes and fuel prices, as well as the restoration of production of the right brand of fuel.
    say, significant concessions in this niche will reduce the cost of flights on the AN-2 simply by half.
    Now carriers for 200-240 km in configuration for 12 passengers take an average of 3-4 tr. for 1 person. Bus tickets (often with bypass roads) cost there on average 650-900r. To understand the cost of flights, I note that only refueling in such a flight at a minimum costs 250l * 48r = 12 + thousand rubles.
    This difference is too uncompetitive.

    to get the most resourceful and lightest wing.

    and why is the most-most wing?
    for small aircraft, profitability is our everything.
    if the plane can not pay off in 2-3 years of operation - what for it is needed?

    However, it didn’t suit you.

    his price tag is just horseback.
    for transportation, you can buy a bu in good condition and an-2 resource for about 3-4 million.
    and this pterodactyl costs 150-180 million
    Well, and who needs him so beautiful ???
    for the money you can buy an-12 in fair condition.

    It seems they never found a replacement; DOSAAF and Avialesookhrana still fly the legendary AN-2
