A video of the flight of a Tu-22M3 pair over the Black Sea appeared on the Web

A video of the flight of Russian long-range Tu-22M3 bombers over the Black Sea appeared on the Web. The video on its channel on YouTube posted TC "Star".

As previously reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense, a pair of long-range bombers Tu-22M3 of the Russian Aerospace Forces made a planned flight over the neutral waters of the Black Sea. The flight in total amounted to more than 5 hours, during which time the aircraft covered about 4,5 thousand kilometers. At selected sections of the flight, the bombers were escorted by fighters of the Southern Military District.

On May 19, 2020, two Tu-22M3 long-range bombers of the Aerospace Forces completed a planned flight in airspace over the neutral waters of the Black Sea. During the flight, the crews of long-range bombers overcame about 4,5 thousand kilometers and were in the air for more than five hours

- said in a statement.

Tu-22M3 is a long-range supersonic missile-bomber with variable wing geometry, the modification was adopted in 1989. Designed to engage sea and ground targets at a distance of up to 2200 km from airbases based on guided missiles and aviation bombs. Currently, the aircraft is being upgraded to the Tu-22M3M version, during which the aircraft will receive new avionics, an aiming and navigation system and other on-board equipment, including a refueling rod. The new version of the aircraft can carry X-32 cruise missiles and hypersonic missiles.

Well, not all American destroyers graze there. Let our bombers throw a circle)

When M3M with "Daggers" begin to cut circles over the Black Sea, Americans will have less desire to graze in it.

And why only with .. "Daggers" (which may still be on the Tu-22M3M, but maybe not) ...... and what does the X-32 not suit?

Good news. It is especially pleasing that such Tu-22M3 will make the very necessary multifunctional Tu-22M3M machine with a decent arsenal (X-50, X-32, GZUR) and a decent range of 6 thousand km plus a refueling bar.

One of the shells has already been studied by foreign experts. This is a new X-50 medium-range cruise missile developed by the Raduga Design Bureau. Its characteristics, according to Jane's Missiles & Rockets, allow it to hit targets at ranges of 1,5 thousand km.
One of the key features of the X-50, which provides the smallest possible circular deviation (CVO), has become an advanced guidance and correction system, structurally similar to the similar system for long-range cruise missiles X-101/102.
The arsenal of weapons of destruction Tu-22M3M also included X-32 missiles, designed to destroy targets at ranges from 700 to 1000 km.

Experts note that in the very near future, the Russian Air Force will receive a one-of-a-kind multi-tasking missile bomber capable of solving several combat missions at once.
“The result of work on the modernization of missile carriers of this type was an extremely useful aircraft, which, depending on the situation, can fly to the Middle East, hunt for ships of a potential enemy, and hit strategic targets in any of the theaters of military operations. Thanks to the Tu-22M3M and new weapons, any of the areas is now available again, ”military expert Vasily Kashin said in an interview with RT.

Based on how the secrecy regime is observed on the "Rainbow", not a single expert, even though ours, even a foreign one, could study any X-50 sample, and they could also find out the characteristics, somewhere they could give some data, but I strongly doubt what are the real characteristics of the rocket

I never thought that on such devices you need to do so many movements with the helm. I thought everything was going smoothly there.

Glory hello! at high speeds there are always problems with stability, didn’t you notice when you turn the steering wheel?

[sabakina]

Roma pryuvet! On the contrary, on the road, the higher the speed, the less you turn the steering wheel. Well, unless of course it is not a road in a forgotten village of God.

[sabakina]

Roman, as a landlord, I have an idea of ​​flight affairs in such films as "The Crew", "Wingspan" ... I understand that this is a movie .... Yes, I saw footage of the chronicle where the pilot pulls the handle, like parkinsonian, but this is when performing serious maneuvers. And yes, I agree, the air is heterogeneous in its environment.

[novel66]

more stability - less handling and vice versa

[ancient]

Quote: novel xnumx

more stability - less handling and vice versa

Manageability is the ability of the aircraft to change the flight mode (when the control levers of the pilot are deflected), and stability is the ability of it (the aircraft) to independently maintain, without the intervention of the pilot, the specified flight mode and return to the original equilibrium after the termination of external disturbances.
Good stability characteristics are essential for better handling.

[novel66]

that is why modern fighters make statically unstable

[ancient]

Quote: novel xnumx

that is why modern fighters make statically unstable

The assertion is controversial, since the "goodness" of a fighter is determined not only by instability.
Let the one who says that the MiG-29 is a bad fighter be the first to throw a stone at me. Meanwhile, it is statically stable.

But the F-16 has near-zero stability, and in terms of effectiveness as a fighter, it loses to the stable F-15.

This is one way to increase maneuverability. The plane directly holds the electronics (EDSU), and only with the intervention of the pilot (RUS movement) allows it to perform maneuvers. It is feverishly to pull the RUS in order to keep the aircraft on course, there is no need, because everything is done by electronics.

So for sure, and for its reservation, the roll channel on the stabilizer with its steering unit is used, which allows you to control the plane along the roll by differential deviation of the stabilizer halves.

I remember I had an UAZ, so you’ll exceed the speed a little and a sharp increase in the runout of the steering wheel began and the running gear was scary .. But I did it!
And in such an airplane, there is clearly an even greater load on the pilot .. Well, I’m not special, but I understand roughly what might happen when the instruments start spinning and the bulbs beep .. Not everyone can be a pilot!

[Grigory_45]

Tu-22M3 booster irreversible control system. Those. efforts from control surfaces to the helm are not transmitted. The steering wheel is even specially forcefully loaded (by spring loaders) so that the pilot does not seem completely empty.
If there weren’t a booster, it would be simply impossible to control this aircraft at supersonic

[ancient]

Not just one helm ... and due to the almost complete lack of effort on the column and pedals, flight / takeoff and landing load simulators - spring loaders were introduced into the control wiring.
And in the pitch channel there is an electromechanical automatic column flow limiter - a torsion bar.
