An emergency is reported with the Tu-22M3 missile carrier in the Astrakhan region

An emergency situation with a long-range bomber in the Astrakhan region is reported. We are talking about the Tu-22M3 aircraft, which performed a planned flight.

According to the latest information, during the flight, the missile carrier failed the engine. The crew took the combat vehicle away from the village and decided to land a long-range bomber on the ground. The Ministry of Defense at the moment confirms information that the plane managed to land on one of the fields in the Astrakhan region.

It is emphasized that the Tu-22M3 flew without ammunition. Pilots after completing an airplane landing on the ground left the cockpit on their own. According to some reports, they do not need medical assistance. Pilots delivered to the air base.

According to unconfirmed reports, the plane made a flight from Shaikovka air base (near Kaluga) to Akhtubinsk.

A special group is being formed to find out the cause of the failure of the engine of the VKS RF supersonic missile carrier. A separate question: why regular flight was not possible when one engine failed? In particular, the possibility of using an auxiliary power plant is being discussed.

Now the bomber has been smashed. Most likely the quality of spare parts and repairs. An-12 and An-26, which are now in the Air Force - 50 and 35 years old. In the regiments of long-range aviation, too, far from new cars.

What else did you steal?

[AVA77]

They broke it, did not break it, or put it under the door, here the main thing is to memeknut first, everything was gone.

[Thrall]

Damn, at the beginning of the year in the north with the Tu-22M3 the trouble was near Murmansk,

now in the south. Well, at least the crew is alive all this time ...

[Aristarkh Lyudvigovich]

For decades, they killed the Kazan Aviation Plant. Gorbunova is a branch of PJSC Tupolev. They killed the production of engines for the Tu-22M3 and Tu-160. Now we have what we have.

[Vladimir16]

Ludwigovich, it would be good to restore socialism with the state property of all industry.
But how to do that?
Are there any developments in this matter?
Action plan. Or is it fashionable to say today - is there a roadmap?

And the fact that all the nineties destroyed the country is a fact.

[Blackmokona]

So we have long been state property in the industry and economy, where do not spit the national treasure in the hands of "effective" managers appointed by the state
https://tass.ru/ekonomika/6394390

As the FAS notes, before the 1998 crisis, the share of the state in the Russian economy was estimated at about 25%, in 2008 - already at 40-45%, by 2013 it exceeded 50%. "In 2017, according to many expert estimates, it may already exceed 60-70%. It should be noted that in 2018 the situation has not changed significantly," the antimonopoly department notes.

[knn54]

The main thing is that the crew would not be guilty of the accident and not forced to pay the cost of repairs.

[orionvitt]

If they prove that it was possible to continue flying on one engine, then they can do the extreme, although I doubt it. Moreover, the plane flew without combat load, almost empty. One thing is unclear how the auxiliary power unit (APU) could help to stay in the air. It works exclusively on the ship's on-board systems and does not create traction.

[Filxnumx]

I missed something: when did pilots of the Russian Aerospace Forces begin to receive salaries of six to seven zeros? Do you know the cost of repairs? Or are you the chairman of the commission to investigate this AIS? For reference: the cost of overhauling only one NK-25 engine is an eight-digit number!

Probably for you this is secondary, the main thing is "They killed the production of engines", but what if the reason for the refusal is in the fuel? Or a foreign object hit? What then tell me? Did they kill the refinery, breed the birds?

[Aristarkh Lyudvigovich]

After the Tu-22M3, modifications of the Tu-22M4 and Tu-22M5 were to appear. The Tupolev Design Bureau and its Kazan branch had very serious achievements. They began to be implemented in the mid-80s - the program was called "Adaptation". The plane was to receive new avionics, sighting system, engines (NK-32 - the same as on the Tu-160). In addition to engines, the aircraft was supposed to have new avionics, thanks to which the crew was reduced from four to two people. Even the flying laboratory was made by the Tu-22M4 - "small Tu-160" - it was shown at MAKS-92. But there was no funding, and the program was cut. In the "good" times, they wanted to cut the "small Tu-160", but the military gave the command "not to touch". Production of the Tu-22M3 was stopped in 1993 (at the same time as the Tu-160), presumably at the convincing request of the Americans. The extreme new car was rolled out of the final assembly shop in 1997 after long ordeals. The production of the Soviet turbojet engines NK-32 installed on the Tu-160 "White Swan" was discontinued after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Relatively recently, it was decided to resume their production, but in a modernized version (NK-32-02).

If nobody has honesty in Russia, does this mean that you are also a dishonorable person? Or are you not a Russian citizen, and therefore allow yourself such statements?

[AVA77]

Just do not need honesty.

highly likely

[Screamer11]

I admit, I’m deceiving someone constantly for the sake of my personal happiness. But it is not necessary at the same time that others suffer. But in war, a lie sometimes turns into a military trick, and it seems that it is no longer a lie at all.

[kot28.ru]

a bondman believes that he is at war and uses military trick? So it’s not war, it seems, he’s just lying. Although there is one territory adjacent to Russia where some individuals believe that they have been at war with Russia since 2014. Clinical .....

[Screamer11]

After all, a war is not necessary when bombs fall on your head. A man was born, and the other immediately announces to him that he must work part of his time for another. And if the first does not agree, then the whole war, if the peace in captivity agreed. Everyone chooses for himself. What do you call it?

[yustas]

It is only you who think that no one is suffering, there can be no meridians in deceit, you either steal or not, if you steal, which seems to be true, then do not nod to managers. You need to start with yourself, otherwise it turns out you crap, and the neighbor is to blame, he was your boss ...

[Screamer11]

And here is the theft, a simple example: Who went to the bathhouse with friends, one of them is not married and calls "girls", the husband will tell his wife about this later? And will he act truthfully?

This is the second loss of the Tu-22M3 this year.

[VO3A]

These planes have become obsolete for a long time .. They have an exhausted resource and it does not extend ... Their modernization for 10 years is very doubtful! What for ? They won’t last longer ... It would be better to build a Su-34! He is in no way inferior to this non-resource dinosaur, and his rocket can be carried if you really want to ... And so the money in the sand ....

[bober1982]

Quote: VO3A

These aircraft have long become obsolete.

B-52 has outlived itself?

[VO3A]

The B-52 has a wing without variable geometry ... On the Tu-22M3, a heavily loaded swivel assembly and a small wing, more precisely the console ... The swivel assembly is destroyed due to loads and the airplane is decommissioned, non-resource design. The Tu-22M3 has an elongated non-carrying fuselage, weak design ... We found that to compare with the Tu-95 is another matter, this one can fly for a very long time ... You need to think ... and not repeat nonsense ...

[bober1982]

B-52 - a dinosaur?

[5-9]

The same as in the B-1B (which in the United States occupies about the same niche, Chot and Tu-22M3 with us). The Americans are not going to write them off ... although recently the entire fleet has been joked because of technical problems, it’s not known how and when they will decide.

[kjhg]

Quote: VO3A

These aircraft have long outlived themselves .. They have a running out resource and it does not extend ...

They have been trumpeting this for a long time. But what to do? There are no new long-range bombers to replace them! Wait for them for at least another 10-15 years. That's the military and get out as they can.

Quote: VO3A

It would be better to build a Su-34! He is in no way inferior to this non-resource dinosaur

Yields! In all respects inferior. Su-34 is a good aircraft, but still it is only a front-line soldier, no more. For example, he will not be able to fly to Syria, bomb, and return back to Mozdok, as the Carcasses do. Unless with two refueling in the air somewhere over Iran. But it is very troublesome and expensive. We have refuellers, you know, with a gulkin nose.

[VO3A]

There are no differences with refueling, and the load is of the same order ... And the Su-34 will fly for at least 40 years ... Take and see ... And I would also be on the basis of the Su-34, and PAK YES ... The engines of the sea , everything worked out. To earn a profile, stealth materials to introduce, to hide weapons, and increase the weight a little, and you can compete .... It’s cheap and cheerful, and most importantly competently and without high costs ..
By the way, have you seen that Chinese designers are creating on the basis of our Tu-16? Just an awesome thing!

Bored with you! There is no flight of thought .. And if you think that I was only joking, then only half ... Do you know what take-off weight the PAK YES ... Have you seen the approved version of its layout and the estimated performance characteristics? Then can you talk about something?

[Ros 56]

Are you an expert on airplanes or what? Such things can be stated only after a complete examination of the design of the airframe, by the way, which has nothing to do with the engine. And newer ones fail, and what of this?

[VO3A]

So there’s almost nothing to inspect ... There were only 50 cars in the ranks, most of it is not clear in what condition the equipment is, and even 30 of them will be hard to find by glider for modernization ... And how much is lost, read the statistics, specifically for Tu- 22M3, this is without taking into account the fact that he is the best of all modifications .... We are not pi_ndosy and our government, who stupidly consider their heads ... for statistics ... A combat ready and flying plane, these are completely different concepts ....

[Ros 56]

On the first Tu-22s with engines on the side of the keel, even on new ones it was scary to fly, although, as far as I remember, the seat was major. The main thing is that techies know their business, well, a little luck and luck.

[glasha3032]

You are talking nonsense! The Tu-22M3 has an average flight time of 2000-2500 hours - they still have to fly and fly! They are in good condition, the aircraft repair has been repaired - and where could they wear out if they stood in the parking lot in 90-00! Gliders are in excellent condition and for modernization, you can take any drill or storage base!

[Filxnumx]

These planes have long become obsolete

Yes, what problems, bro? You must add with the amers that they put all their AUGs for scrap and we, with a clear conscience, will send product 4503 for a well-deserved rest.

and they can carry his rocket if they really want to.

Well, yes, together one X-32 - they can, "if you really want to ..." ... And who will shoot down the "diamonds"? (from)

Yeah, somehow everything is strange in this news: due to engine failure (can't 22M3 on one support horizontal flight? If there is anyone with the type, tell me), to the ground? I understand that even the Tu-144 sat on the ground, but everything was tragic there.
Thank God they report that the crew is alive.
Let's wait for the details.

[AUL]

In particular, the possibility of use of auxiliary power unit.

How is that? On a starter fly? Specialists, please explain!

it’s such a joke, the car on the starter can still get off the road, but the plane ..

[Svarog51]

I agree, but in the case that the battery is in order. Roman, I watched the documentary - there supersonic landed on unpaved airfields during the muddy season. What has changed in the world?

How is that? On a starter fly? Specialists, please explain!

If the standard power supply system (from generators on engines) fails, two options are possible - from the APU, if available, or from the batteries.

Is the Tu-22 APU a source of additional traction? I just do not know. An-32 APU 900 kgf can be used.

Did I talk about extra traction? In my opinion, I wrote in black in Russian about the APU as a source of electricity.

[glasha3032]

And if the "Fire in the engine" display went off and the engine really began to fail, then it is probably correct that the crew did not show unnecessary heroism and landed the plane as soon as possible.

It depends on what overload they planted. If not more than 2,5 units, then normal. Patch up on 360 ARZ and forward and with the song, it will continue to fly. There are more problems with engines.

[Xenofont]

In Soviet times, an abnormal meeting with the ground meant decommissioning for a combat vehicle. The consequences are not predictable, especially in terms of design. At our initiative, the people from TEC, who had sat down rigidly on the Mi-8, decided to restore in order to create a mock simulator with a complete replacement of both harnesses and equipment. No speech was given about flights.

[VO3A]

We also, when a stupid commander-educator, in the process of educating techies, demolished the APA cockpit with the Su-24 plane, the plane was restored for 1 flight and no one else flew on it ...

But on the other hand, it was almost not able to fly ....

[Xenofont]

Oh, there were specimens: the guard!

[Xenofont]

A similar story with the Mi-8. Scheduled flights were usually accompanied by hunting games, the benefit of taiga and roe deer flocking around. The tactic was to descend vertically on the herd, because with fear the beast stumbles into a heap and freezes. Then they beat him. But the weather let us down that time: they went too low and a strong gust of wind tipped the car, the blades touched the ground and began to cut the cab. The leftist and the navigator died, and the bortok, who was sitting between them, was safe and sound. Fate

A similar case, after landing with an unreleased landing gear, was in Kipelovo. They replaced the half-plane on the Tu-142, flew around and wrote off the plane. True, in order to transfer the flight accident from the accident to breakdown in the reports.

And another case, in the 83rd, if the memory does not fail while driving MI-8 with blades, it cuts off the boom of a truck crane! Of course, the helicopter commander is to blame, but who launched the truck crane at what to do near taxiing and flying?

and even now it’s not known what condition the plane is, the one that civilian pilots put on a cornfield went to the scrap, so this one is also very likely there

And you do not complain, you start the update with yourself, change the nickname (Old Horseradish) to (New Horseradish).

The US flies on even older B-52s and nothing. B1B and B2 are also not younger than Tu-22M3. The Chinese also fly normally on the Tu-16. A bomber is not a cheap thing, even the USA cannot afford to replace an air fleet.

Rudolph Last year, the pediment of the central factory building of the Kazan Aviation Plant named after Gorbunov nearly killed the director of the plant. Just lucky that he was not in the car. This was a sign from above to him. The state allocates billions to resume production of the TU-160, the question is how much has come to production, and how much has been leaked through one-day firms. And these questions will arise, since the terms under the contract for the production of TU-160 are likely to be disrupted.

Was the field corn?

[bk316]

Thank. Well, that is, lucky here does not roll. You cannot accidentally give out such a sequence of actions. Did I understand correctly?

[Polinom]

Somehow you are all in a bunch.
Vasilyev balancing failure. Where to pull there?
Zertsalov was never found out specifically (- the destruction of the wing structure;
- failure of the steering gear RP-63; - failure of the aircraft power supply.)
I would add Zakharevich. Movement and with consequences
In general, they now sin on fuel. It was similar with two Tu-95s from Ukrainka ..

[Polinom]

Fixed ..... 154

[Lord of the Sith]

The crew is alive, the plane is being repaired, the perpetrators are being blown up, why complain?
Need to work.

Now the bomber has been smashed.

rudolff (rudolff), dear, it seems to me that your ancient friend still wrote more about the Tu-22M. Everything was even worse on the Tu-22: with a landing mass of Tu-22K with a rocket of about 60 tons, the normal landing speed is 320-330 km / h, but navigator -1, pilot -1 and the worst thing is all the seats (navigator, pilot, guidance operator missiles) are catapulted DOWN, the minimum altitude for leaving the aircraft is either 300, or 350 meters. On all upgraded Tu-22 seats flew UP. I can be mistaken, as many as 35 years have passed since I serviced the Tu-22 121 of the Red Banner Guards of the Sevastopol TBAP at the Machulishchi airfield near Minsk.

Someone that beguiled something, or does not know ... (apparently Ancient?), About the same method of ejection on Tu 22 and Tu 22M3 ... What is "down" on M3 ????? Can you clarify your statement?
How strange it all sounds ...

[swzero]

It is not clear why an empty aircraft without a combat load and with a small remaining fuel (the situation occurred at the end of the flight) could not continue to fly on one engine, especially considering that the engine has the ability to use the afterburner mode, which almost doubles the thrust.

[Polinom]

Wrong ... from ignorance.
Normally flies on one.

In anticipation of the 105th anniversary of long-range aviation, another gift! But, well done guys, such a carcass to the ground is very cool to put!

[Filxnumx]

In particular, the possibility of using an auxiliary power plant is being discussed.

APU TA-6A is not a spare engine, but an auxiliary one: as a source of electricity, as well as compressed air to start the NK-25 main engine (provided that the second engine is not yet running). When one of the engines is already running, the start of the second comes from the APU that is already working to save engine life. The APU can be launched in flight (you never have any problems with the aircraft’s power supply system), but only up to a height of 3 km, with the TA-6A launched, you can climb up to 6 m. If one NK-000 engine is running and there are no problems with power supply (both generators GSR-25BK of this engine is working normally), then there is no need to launch the APU.

decided to land a long-range bomber on the ground.

It’s not entirely clear: the landing was on the belly or normal, but on an unpaved runway? It seems, all the same, the second option, both engines - for repair. But at least the liner itself is intact. Flyers - Respect.

[aries2200]

sorry for the bird .. such an airplane was.

[pafegosoff]

That is, this airplane even cannot continue flying on one engine to the nearest airfield (300 km).
And what kind of motors are these? If I had sat down with two failed on the field - understandably. And with one ... Would be facilitated to a minimum. Somehow there is no understand ...

The B-52 has a wing without variable geometry ..

And how long has a 1955 bomber of release a wing of variable geometry?
