NI on India’s decision on Su-57: It’s one thing to sketch a plane on paper, the other is to build and make it fly

120

The American magazine The National Interest published material in which the author tries to analyze the issue of India’s refusal to acquire Russian Su-57 fighters. The author writes: “So why did India abandon the Russian Su-57? According to representatives of the Indian Air Force, it is very expensive, poorly designed, and also has unreliable engines. Is it true?"

The author at the very beginning of the material makes a certain mistake. After all, the Indian Air Force did not abandon the Su-57, but from joint work on the FGFA program. It was precisely the unwillingness of further joint work with Russia on the new generation fighter program that the Indian authorities announced. The talk of putting Su-57 to India so far has not (officially) gone. The main reason is that the fifth-generation fighter Su-57 has not yet been delivered to the Russian Aerospace Forces.



But in the article, the author of NI still mentions the program of Russian-Indian cooperation. In the article he writes:

The situation with the Su-57 could have turned out differently. At the beginning of 2018, India, together with Russia, developed an invisible fighter, providing cash, which gave commercial viability to a problematic project. But New Delhi rejected the joint development agreement in April 2018.

According to the author of the article, Indian complaints revealed the following problem: "it is one thing to sketch an improved military aircraft on paper, and it is quite another to build and make it fly."

The author claims that India was planning to buy 144 stealth fighters. But the way the work was carried out as part of the program did not satisfy her. Now India, as you know, is trying to create a 5th generation airplane on its own.

And in the opinion of the author of another publication, Business Standard, India’s refusal of a joint program with the Russian Federation was politically motivated. And in India itself, statements about this were made that the agreements with France on the purchase of Rafale played a decisive role. Opposition circles have called the deal with France a "trail of corruption." The reason for this version was the excessively high cost of the contract for French-made fighters.

    It is one thing to copy the Soviet Yak with vert. take-off, another thing is to make this shit fly .... budget loot mastered, now it remains to make the F35 combat unit. Do not think that Russia does not make any illusions about the lack of ability of f 35 for something, but it also knows about all the chips in a mediocre way ..

      It is possible that he is mediocre and even shit. However, here it is, both in metal, and in flight, and in the armies of the world. 500 pieces, 1000 pilots. 250 hours in the air.

        Well, why the hell? What would I say, is it in metal? Is the pleasure too expensive for the possibility of such statements? A mediocre apparatus is actually not a mediocre cheapening of the lives of pilots. Although the corporation cuts loot, it feeds lobbyists and senior army officials and they do not care.

          And dear, and mediocre, and corporations cut loot, and feed the wrong ones, and they do not care - everything is bad. You're right. But the fighter has been in full-fledged serial production for five years.

              Tell us all again.
              why should NATO buy some other abstract planes?
              NATO perfectly buys Its Typhoons, Its Rafali,
              Have you ever looked at the quantitative composition of the Air Forces of the NATO countries in Europe before you carry your words to the masses?
              There are European aircraft, much more than American ...

              And what kind of unfree choice are we talking about?

              Do you think about Russian planes?

              Which Russian equipment will buy knowing that the concept of technical support for spare parts in the Russian aviation industry is absent in principle ...
              This shows the experience of many operators from Soviet times.
              The plane was sold, but consumables and spare parts for it were never on time.

              Okay, let's move on.
              NATO needs only fuselages.
              They should have their own engines, their own avionics, their own rockets ...

              Otherwise, why should they, i.e. NATO, to have weapons, a likely adversary who, in the event of a BP, will take and will not take off.

              Do you agree to buy Typhoons or Rafali? or Chinese FC?
              I am sure that no, so why should they buy ours if the real cost of the Su-35S is already under $ 100 million ...

                But the hegemon makes them buy their fu, which are much more expensive in all respects
                Do you think about Russian planes?

                A good gift to read other people's thoughts, but it is not available to you
                Airplanes, but air defense has already been bought by one country.

                  They have a freedom of choice.
                  Germany, Italy, France, Great Britain, Spain, Autria - Typhoons bought it.
                  France - Rafale.
                  Hungary, Czech Republic - Influenza.
                  Belgium, Norway, Holland, Poland, Turkey (possibly) - F-35 ..

                  Once again I ask, have you ever looked at directories?
                  See which aircraft are in service with the Italian Air Force for example. All planes.

              no one forbids buying other planes, and doesn’t impose by force of F-35.
              Germany refused (it is not yet clear which plane Berlin will stop on). Canada refused (bought the Hornets). Turkey has been vetoed supplies (although it has been a member of the JSF program from the start)

              Why did you get this? You probably don’t know that even the closest US allies organize tenders where both Americans and French and Swedes and Germans participate, for example, in Switzerland recently there were already 8 different aircraft to choose from, from Grippen to F-35 and they were all checked as they should , the competition is fierce. Moreover, tenders of any Hindus, Arabs and Asians, if the Russian Federation had something to offer, they could steer the situation and no State Department would be in the way. But without AFAR and modern missiles there is nothing to catch. At the moment, the F-35 is the most advanced combat aircraft at the moment, designed to operate the next 40 years at least, with the possibility of modernization and it has a long line in the real world.

              And what is the cost of maintenance?
              Fuel as the main expenses - at world exchange prices.
              Su-35S is not much cheaper than F-22. Just see the latest orders.
              And not the prices of 2012.
              Salaries of pilots and service staff, but less directly.
              But here the indirect content, all kinds of surcharges there, retirement pensions, housing certificates and much more - practically equalizes.
              The cost of maintaining airfields and other things is no less, if not more.

          It is difficult to compare the F-35 with the magnificent Russian S-30, Su-35 and Su-57.
          It is possible that Su- can defeat any of the aircraft of NATO countries.
          But you can compare the F-35 with American military aircraft.
          1) Based on the experience of using the F-35 in the Israeli Air Force, they came to the conclusion that he
          equivalent to two F-16s in combat effectiveness in strike missions.
          2) Norwegian pilots operating the F-16 and F-35 reported that
          The F-35 is superior to the F-16 in close combat.
          3) American pilots, retrained from the F-15 Eagle to the F-35, together wrote in

              I'll add more. The US Air Force has an "aggressor squadron". Its pilots are the best aces, usually of the "instructor" class. Aircraft: F-15, F-16, F-14, Kfir. For training combat pilots in close combat, how to respond to "ambushes", all kinds of tactical tricks.
              So, recently, its commander said with annoyance: "we need to change planes."

              I will not say for the Israeli estimates, but I read the article by the Norwegian pilot. On The Aviationist. This Norwegian is not a simple pilot. Having flown a bunch of hours over F-16 over the northern seas, in the USA he graduated from the school of marine test pilots. Received qualification as an instructor. Higher for US pilots. Retrained on the F-35. At the time of writing, he worked in the USA as an instructor on the F-35. The article is complex, with numerous tactical schemes. By plane. In his opinion, the F-35 is better than the F-16 in close combat, in terms of acceleration dynamics and maneuverability. By visibility, there are problems, the back is interfering. There are a lot of indicators. In a nutshell, his rating is a very good plane. The potential is huge. Even at the expense of only software. Downloading new updates leads to the fact that the aircraft version 16 is much weaker than version 19. The potential will only grow. This is not me - this is a Norwegian writes.

                    You see, the corresponding resources and TV “drove” into the minds of many the idea that the F-35 is absolutely non-maneuverable (9g for 35A - non-maneuverable?) Ugly and generally once the Serbs shot down the F-117 (for 800 successful flights), then the whole “your stealth "Does not work (however, Russian designers for some reason tend to use these technologies).
                    Most people find it easier to take ready-made images “on faith” than to be interested in the topic and seek information. And to convince by arguments of logic and data it turns out not all.

            2) Well, F16 was a very mediocre air fighter - the main rate in the air. battles the Americans did on the F15. And when the F16 was overweight in subsequent "blocks", its real (and not false advertising) LTHs sagged even more. And, yes - the Norwegians in military affairs, of course, are more authoritative than the Danes, but they do not reach the first league.
            3) American pilots are disciplined guys and obey (sign what their superiors say) and obey censorship laws (they will not express their claims openly, tea is not the 1970s).

            We have as a fact: the United States does not have a promising fighter of air combat.
            But they can do it with a timely decision and proper management - and there are already doubts about it.

                And in Israel, for a year and a half or two, they understood and made the final conclusion about the inability of Fu35go ​​to a full-fledged air battle. They were interested in the new F15 with special specifications (not the AMRAAM rocket carrier that is advertised) ... Well, what is the replacement for the F-15 in air combat in the Israeli Air Force? And nothing turns out. It's not Rafali to buy ... One hope that Fu35 will not have such opponents.

                  And 100 F-16s are replaced by 50 pieces of F-35s.

          It’s strange. But about the T-34 and the Panther for some reason, they say exactly the opposite (and about the T-90 and Abrams). Like, well, yes, this is not the pinnacle of technology, but we have a lot of them (it was). And this is better than good, but not enough.

        Comparable to the F-35, the Su-30 and Su-35 are also long in metal, in flight, and in the armies of the world (while they are not mediocre and not shit). Maybe a little inaccurate, but I think more than 500 aircraft, more than 700 pilots and more than 250 hours in the air. And the Su-000 is the next step, and no one has yet made a comparable step. We are not at the age to convince each other, I think everyone will remain at his own. Each army in the world has its own problems and shortcomings, but no matter what, I am calm and proud both for our army and for the pilots and VKS, including what I wish you.

                  - Release will be limited by budget. In addition, there is no sense in overclocking the release of the first series, so that it does not work out like the Americans did. Do not duplicate unsuccessful decisions.
                  - The release of Penguins is the maximum consequence of the execution of Washington’s instructions by all its sixes on a joint development and construction program. The success of politics and management is, let’s say so.

Among them, there are thirteen 1st category, which according to the US Air Force limitation "can lead to the death or serious injury of the pilot, to the loss or serious damage to the weapon system and critically limit the combat readiness of the units using it or lead to a production stop."

      It is one thing to copy the Soviet Yak with vert. takeoff, another thing is to make this shit fly ....

      Actually, if you look at it, the Americans did not "copy" the "ready for battle" Yak-141, but the projected Yak-201 ...! It is enough to compare the design schemes of the F-35 and Yak-141, and have a look at the Yak-201 project ...

        What is on the network for the Yak-201 is not like the F-35. Rather, the Americans got the design scheme, finalized it for an engine with a fan drive instead of additional engines. Well, they re-arranged the Yak-41/43 to get the internal deployment of weapons.

          Duc, the F-35 does not look like a "complete" copy of the Yak-141! The Yak-141 has one lift and sustainer and two lift engines, like the Yak-38 ... only the layout is somewhat different ... The Yak-201 has one lift and sustainer engine (PMD) and a "fan" with power take-off from PMD ... The F-35V has one engine and a "fan" with power take-off from the PMD! Under this "gaze", who is more "like" whom?

            Nikolaevich I (Vladimir), I’m ready to agree with Swami if you list what documentation Lockheed received from Yakovlev Design Bureau vertically. If you can’t, then we can prepare that the F-35 was created based on the Yakovlev cars and based on the experience of the Design Bureau,

              Well, this is a long-standing and well-known story about how, in the 90s, the Yakovlev Design Bureau transferred to Lockheed the documentation for the Yak-141 (and for the Yak-38 ... for "delivery"), when the F-35 was not yet 35 ", and an abbreviation of 4 English letters (I don't remember exactly which ones ...). Well, and sho? It's not clear ... what is the dispute about? Firstly, we now do not know in detail what documentation, up to a leaf, up to a diagram, in fact, was handed over to the Americans ... Secondly, I didn’t prove which concrete (!) Construction the Americans took as a “basis”! I only expressed my opinion that according to the principle (!) Of ensuring takeoff and landing, the F-35 "resembles" (!) Rather the Yak-201 than the Yak-141! That's all...

          Iran launches rockets with its satellites

          On the fourth attempt, the first successful launch. Russia put into orbit the first artificial Earth satellite on October 4, 1957.
          China fifth generation aircraft stamps

          "Many Chinese experts are inclined to classify the J-20 as a fifth generation fighter, but in fact, there is a major factor that does not give the J-20 this status."
          This factor is the lack of engines at the moment that can give the J-20 fighter super-maneuverability. Fighter jets are operated with Russian engines, there are few variants of the latest engines created in China for the new batch of J-20. But while these engines with a controlled thrust vector are being tested and until they go into series, the J-20 fighter cannot be fully attributed to the 5th generation.

          "As noted by The National Interest, both Russia and China are developing fifth-generation fighters" to challenge US dominance. "However, the approach is different."
          The publication admits that the Su-57, even with the AL-41F1 engine in operation, is superior to its Chinese competitor in terms of maneuverability and supersonic performance. However, the efficiency of the Su-57 will increase even more with the installation of a new engine known as the "Type 30" ... And although a new engine is being developed in China, the American publication doubts that it will increase the maneuverability of the J-20 to the level of the Su-57.

              The fact that the launch was carried out from the 5th research site of the USSR Ministry of Defense “Tyura-Tam” does not mean that Kazakhstan made and put this device into orbit.

    Objectively, the Indians, in the joint design and production, wanted to get modern critical technologies and arrange their production at home. It was because of the refusal to provide them, including software keys, that the Indians left the project. Arguments about the incomplete compliance of stealth technology, unsatisfactory engine performance, etc. Of course there was a place to be, but they knew that these were temporary difficulties and they would be eliminated over time. Well, Russia will have to bring the Su-57 to the required level alone.

      I do not think that there will be more than 75 million dollars.
      Which is 40% cheaper than Rafal, and 25% cheaper than the Su-35S.

      One, very economical engine.
      A good system for forecasting failure, which significantly reduces the cost of procurement and maintenance of spare parts.

      Well, about the enemies.

      In Israel, if you really take a sober look at the surroundings along the borders - wreck of enemies.
      Some people attacked him all the time.
      First.

      The latter all the time threaten to destroy him and spend billions on subversive activities.

      It would be strange to live in Russia if it were from the Moscow region and everything around would be like Ukraine and Georgia.
      So did not try to think?

      And yes, the F-35 is not cheap like Tucano.
      But he allows 5 orders of magnitude more than Tucano.
      One flight of a pair of aircraft - and there is practically no air defense headquarters.

          Did not try to search for yourself?

          OK, I will answer you.
          1. The production facilities of Lockheed do not allow to immediately saturate the demand "here and now".
          Although they make 3 planes a week, they aren’t enough for everyone and they are scheduled for 10 years in advance.

          2. Retraining the pilot on the F-35 is quite expensive. It lasts 2 years. The number of pilots from among 4-generation aircraft capable of controlling a 5-generation aircraft does not exceed 25-40%.

          3. The purchase of new needles is for the urgent replacement of existing, debited by the complete depletion of the resource.

          These three indicators in symbiosis give a picture of the decision to purchase Needles.
          ie
          - new planes here and now no one will give them, for the turn.
          - they lack the necessary qualifications. and they are not needed without the appropriate aircraft.
          - expose your air force and reduce its defenses in anticipation of the prospect, albeit excellent. but still distant - they cannot afford ...

            Tse is good. I'm talking about engines.

            And that they pulled the five - Tse is not a miracle anyway (even under Yeltsin they managed to make piece underwaffles), all the more if for a long time and by hand piece by piece.
            Stealth has long been. Amers really.
            Supersound too. Cruising. It seems that Tu 144 flew on it.

            And right now 5ku is being developed by all and sundry.
            The Japanese, the Chinese, still someone from Asia, the Europeans, even the Iranians boasted.
            With engines, the problem is with electronics.

            Therefore, I put on the Japanese.

    According to the author of the article, Indian complaints revealed the following problem: "it is one thing to sketch an improved military aircraft on paper, and it is quite another to build and make it fly."

    The author is clearly not in himself. The plane is built and flies remarkably. The engine is being finalized if it weren’t for the coronavirus and the collapse of oil prices maybe in 10 years and we already had 100 pieces. Well, now the perspective is not clear.

    So why India abandoned the Russian Su-57


    Nobody refused anything. Jimmy is now in a state of ritual dancing, they are waiting for Russia to bring the Su-57 to its senses in order to get it all ready.
    And no one else will sell them 5th generation aircraft.

    another "qigan" method of the Indians "for three kopecks" to get the latest technologies of the 5th generation.
    When the Indians were offered to pay for the project equally, they jumped off .....

      And what for they they. Do not pull. In reality, the Hindus mastered the assembly of Su-30SM from machine kits with minimal localization and barely in 40 years reached the stage of assembling prototypes of their homegrown miracle of Tejas generation 3+, and you howl that Sukhoi is bad. Make better cho!

    Until we start massively purchasing and adopting and rolling out in wars, building at the same time a new tactics and strategy for application, we will look back at the opinion of every barefoot ragman .... They should be honored to buy our weapons. His best advertisement is mass exploitation and victory on the battlefield. A white man should dominate the fantasies of such allies, they should be drawn to him ... And we ourselves will adapt to them ... Take into service 500-1000 pieces, and then carve someone model-wise in military operations (the enemy with the Air Force and air defense). You then have a line for them around the globe.
