"A difficult path to serial production": German press about the Il-76MD-90A aircraft

96

For many years, the Il-76 has been the "workhorse" of the Russian Air Force in the class of transport vehicles. This aircraft will retain this role for a long time, since serial production of a fundamentally new version of the Il-76MD-90A was launched at the facilities of Aviastar-SP in Ulyanovsk.

As noted by the German edition of Flug Revue, the most modern version of the Il-76 can hardly be called a completely new technique. The aircraft began to be created back in 2006 and took off in 2012. At the same time, 39 IL-76MD-90A boards were ordered. However, it was not until April 2019 that the first "real" production aircraft was delivered.



Since then, the serial production, apparently, has been continuously growing.

- writes the German press.

Aviastar-SP plans to start production of 12 aircraft per year, and then reach the level of 18 aircraft.

What's new in the IL-76MD-90A?

- asks Flug Revue.

In his words, the new modification "is fundamentally different from the original version, which first took off in 1971". IL-76MD-90A has completely redesigned wings, which are 2700 kg lighter. Under them are four PS-90A-76 engines, which operate 20% more economically than the previously used D-30KP2, but at the same time provide a third more thrust and increase the flight range by 18%. Carrying capacity increased from 48 to 60 tons. The chassis has been reinforced. The aircraft received new avionics, advanced protection systems, a navigation system, and equipment for accurate cargo release.

As indicated by Flug Revue, the Il-76MD-90A has gone "a difficult path to serial construction." Now, in his person, the Russian Air Force has received a new reliable "workhorse".

      We deployed an automated assembly line and negotiated a change to the contract. The contract was old before the crises. As far as I remember, it was renewed for 33 boards instead of 39. By the way, a contract for il20 was signed for Army 76. They say about another 14 pieces in addition to the renegotiated old contract for 33 pieces.

            Damn, children or what? The deployment of any serious technological product is always difficult. Especially for the military with their acceptance. In an ordinary car there are about 30 thousand parts, in an airplane there are no less of them. Plus there are forces such as the 2015 crisis or the coronavirus crisis. The stories about theft are basically an explanation for the layman. He does not want to delve into anything and he needs an extremely simple explanation, such as "everything was stolen." Even if someone has slammed something on the production itself, this has not affected in any way for a long time. When a person explains all problems by theft or corruption, this is a sign that the person is not connected in any way with the government and has no idea about it.

                Maybe they steal, but this does not apply to the release process at all. And by the way, with the current scheme of tracking financing flows of processes in the military-industrial complex, it will be difficult to steal. It is clear that there is a return of some contracts to more "correct" companies or an overstatement of estimates. But this is not very noticeable in comparison with the amounts of military contracts. This is the river on the bank of which you stealthily scoop with a mug. Even with a bucket. With this, you will definitely not stop and slow down the river. request
                Example. One shot of a tornado with inexpensive ammunition - in the region of 2 million rubles. Package - 12 pieces. That is, a tornado salvo - 24 million rubles. A person can live on this money for 20 years. And then he flies away in minutes. Tch money that is available even to a serious corrupt official and money flowing through government contracts are simply different orders of magnitude. request

              Now, if the enterprise received a defense order, received funding and support for technical re-equipment, but did not fulfill the task, every year it postponed the launch of serial production ... for a year, swore that from next year "for sure, I swear by my mother", at that time it was eating budget, mired in debt and as a result - the Investigative Committee drags the head and his accountant to court for theft of state funds on an especially large scale ... is this theft?
              Or emotions] of the layman [?
              So I trust the Investigative Committee more.
              And your eyes.
              All plans not only for military transport planes have been thwarted! It is much more terrible that plans for the construction of tankers for long-range and fighter aviation on their basis have been thwarted.
              Completely ripped off!
              And the program for launching into production of AWACS A-100 aircraft ... also suffered. There are already enough problems with this program, they cannot even present the head plane, even though they received the glider a long time ago ... But now these have an excuse - "Ulyanovsk is delaying the release of the Il-76MD-90A ...".
              And what do we have in the military transport aviation?
              In light of all the events of recent years - in Syria, Libya, Venezuela, in the Far East and in the West - with NATO?
              And the same thing - the old boards are used for wear and tear of the An-12, An-22, An-26 - the last boards are on the last drops of the resource. IL-76 ... and how many are there? In 2015 or 2016, they made a decision "due to delays in the serial production of the Il-76ML-90A, remove up to 100 Il-76s from storage bases, carry them through overhaul and modernization and close the gap in the VTA with them ..."
              And ...?
              Shut up?
              Not !
              How much was repaired?
              ... yes one or two ... the program died ... no one answered ...
              AND SO in everything!
              As a result, combat aviation was left without RL and RT aircraft for reconnaissance, target designation and control, long-range and fighter aircraft without tanker aircraft, VTA without new workhorses ... with the old ...
              Maybe the Navy is different?
              Not !
              Maybe in the Ground Forces?
              Better, but also not shiny.

              This is when they steal from profits.

              Production has not started.

              It is very, very early to judge the success and faultlessness of these "experiments."
              But according to the oath promises of last year, this year - by the end of the year, 8 copies must be handed over. And since the construction cycle of one IL-76ML-90A is a little more than a year (from laying to delivery of at least 15 months), then all these boards must either stand on the conveyor / slipway, or undergo the last training and tests ...
              But we see a stub from the bottom of the fuselage ...

              The video shows the movement of the fuselage from one place to another AFTER docking. Such operations are a routine in the aircraft industry; they were carried out in the same way decades ago, except that there were no laser devices. How the docking was carried out remained behind the scenes, so that one god (and the workers of the plant) knows how the plane is actually assembled. As for the presence of a production line, it must be considered that with such a serial production (say, 18 cars per year), it is more profitable to have a line or a docking berth and then to the side and fill it with systems. The machine is too big for a production line. True, a game of terms is also possible, because the "production line" sounds beautiful.

                In the 80s he worked as a foreman of the 35th workshop of TAPOiCH, where the fuselage was just docked. I see all the novelty of this super-mega-flow line only in the fact that the assembled fuselage is not rolled around the shop, but the crane is dragged with a beam, and plus the ladders are not rolled. But in those days we did 5 !!! cars a month without any of these tricks. I do not believe in the bright future of the country, but I do believe in the secure future of modern managers 100%. The process is creeping, the picture is beautiful, the funds are flowing, and the result is not so important and interesting.

            Here, the "differential" is, indeed, purely automobile jargon. Although, the adjective "differential" in aviation also exists. The Tu-154 has differential rockers in the elevator control wiring. :)

                    "Cardan" and "cardan shaft" are different things. The second uses the principle of the first in the design - mutually perpendicular suspension axes. In everyday life, the "gimbal" is called the cardan ", just as others call the" driveshaft "from the transmission" gimbal.

                      I just showed in my first commentary that in aviation there is a "cardan" (a common word).

                      And I didn't argue! But if you pay attention, my first comment was in connection with the fact that the landing gear of the aircraft was called "undercarriage". And there is no need to pull out and teach, I knew this 40 years ago.

              It is unlikely that the Ukrainians wanted much for the plane, they have not been spoiled with money in recent decades. However, neither China, nor Brazil, nor Turkey, or any other India, have shown any interest.
              Also retired unclaimed and the promoted twin-shaft turbofan engine.
              T-shaped keels are not Tupolev's calling card, the USSR began to produce aircraft with a similar layout (tu134 / 154) last ...
              The famous "Antonov fuselage" is perfectly visible in the already mentioned "starlifters" and "galaxies", which appeared decades earlier than Antonov analogs.

              No, not quite so ... The only thing that the EADS-sheep could "borrow" from the An-70 was the use of propeller-driven engines: back in the late 1980s, the Antonovites correctly identified the way to increase the efficiency of transport aircraft. All other technical solutions are standards for modern aviation: the high-wing plane is ideal for a ramp truck, the T-tail is no better or worse (in terms of a set of factors) than the classic one, but, after all, the An-70 is not equipped with a T-tail ... And, in general , Tupolev used T forcibly - when creating aircraft with a rear engine arrangement, otherwise he was an adherent of the classic: Tu-16 / -104 / -124, Tu-128 and Tu-204 (not ANT, but heirs) to that guarantee. And this is only post-war. By the way, the paper Tu-330 is also a classic. And the Tu-334 will not be considered here. And then at night I will dream. :)
              Indeed, it is on the outward similarity that the inhabitants of the opposite sandbox build their moronic "inferences" that the Il-62 was lapped with the VC-10, and the Tu-144 — with the Concorde. Don't be like.

    They needed a transport plane and a platform for special tasks. They hoped for Tashkent - as a result, the PRC created a new analogue of the Il-76.
    It was better to have cooperation with Uzbekistan, but it did not work out. Therefore, it was a forced, costly and rather risky business to create production in our country in the conditions of a dilapidated aviation industry. But even an old project today is better for us than something promising tomorrow. Although the IL-76 cockpit is narrow by any measure, this should be taken as an inevitable cost.
    The obtained pluses are enough -
    - there is an airplane,
    - there are orders for it, which gives experience and development of direction in the aircraft industry and related industries.
