Following the Tu-160 - Mi-14?

194
So, having burned himself on the PAK FA and having received a fighter of an indistinct generation and the same characteristics at an insane price, with its analogue in the form of the PAK DA program, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief decided not to rush. That is, PAK DA will be developed, of course, but ...

But in Kazan, the Tu-160M ​​"Pyotr Deinekin" has already been launched into the sky, thus marking the beginning of a new stage in the life of the Tu-160. M1 + or M2 is not so important, what is important is that the aircraft developed by Soviet engineers gets a second life in Russia.



Let's leave strategic bombers, now we are not talking about them.

We will talk about another veteran of the Soviet Air Force, who definitely would not hurt to get back on the assembly line. This is the Mi-14 anti-submarine helicopter.


Back in 2015, Defense Minister Shoigu made a loud statement that the production of the Mi-14 would again begin in Kazan. The helicopter, which was removed from production and service, according to many sources, under pressure from the United States.

In this material, we will not consider the issue of the reliability of rumors, but will try to assess how this step can have a positive effect on the country's defense as a whole and how realistic it is at all.

Since 2015, various media have raised the topic of the fact that "just about ..." Mi-14 will again begin to be produced.


In fact, JSC Russian Helicopters at one time confirmed that the issue of the Mi-14 had been considered and discussed. And there really is a topic for the Mi-14, but it will be split into three stages: repair of operated helicopters, their modernization, and only then the resumption of production.

Does this make sense? Of course have. Roughly the same as in the situation with the Tu-160: we cannot make a new and more modern one - we must take up the old. And the Mi-14 is the only Russian helicopter - a full-fledged amphibian capable of landing, taking off and moving along the water surface.

And, I will note - without 100% probability of drowning, as is the case with the same Ka-27.

prehistory



It all began in 1965 with the Resolution of the Central Committee of the CPSU and the Council of Ministers of the USSR on the development of an anti-submarine amphibious helicopter.

A new machine was created on the basis of the Mi-8, which had already firmly entered into use, and proved itself in the best way. However, the Mi-14 is not an improved copy of the Mi-8, it is a machine for which a lot had to be done anew: the engines, the main gearbox, the search and aiming system, and the positive buoyancy system.

But if the party said that it was necessary ... The first flight took place on August 1, 1967, and in 1976, under the designation Mi-14PL, the helicopter was put into service.

The helicopter was very original, mainly due to the innovative boat-type bottom and side floats-balonets. The car had a retractable chassis.

Of weapons the designers were able to accommodate a fairly decent set of search equipment, and from the attack Mi-14PL it could carry an anti-submarine (or anti-ship) torpedo, or depth charges with a total weight of up to 2 kg, or a 000 kiloton Scalp atomic depth charge.

In total, until 1986, 273 Mi-14s of all modifications were produced: anti-submarine submarine, search and rescue PS and minesweeper BT.


It came out very original, but more cars were sent for export than remained in the USSR. "Allies" received 150 helicopters: Poland, Vietnam, Bulgaria, Cuba, Yemen, North Korea, Yugoslavia, Romania, East Germany, Syria and Libya.

In some countries (Poland, Ukraine, Georgia, etc.), helicopters are currently used.

Why was the helicopter good and what did you remember?

The nickname "Liner" was very significant. For a comfortable and spacious cab layout and low vibration.




The Mi-14 had a very impressive range. He could stay in the air for 5,5 hours, fly over a distance of up to 1100 km, or conduct a hydroacoustic search for 2 hours. Reliability was also a strong point.

Of course, the main distinguishing feature of the helicopter was the full-fledged ability to land on the water, move on the water surface and then take off. In addition, in the event of engine failure, the Mi-14 could land on water and not sink, as was the case with its successor Ka-27.

Why the Mi-14 was removed from service in 1992 is a question. The arguments were very strong so-so: the obsolescence of the Mi-14 avionics and the need to switch to helicopters capable of operating not only from coastal bases, but also from the decks of aircraft carrying ships. And the general reduction of the Armed Forces.

Well, a helicopter outside the cut has appeared on the shift. Ka-27. He really took off and landed on the decks of ships, but ... Question from 2020: how many of those ships do we have left? And how much are we able to build in the near future?

But regarding avionics, many and many people argued in defense of the helicopter. It is very easy to change the avionics as part of the modernization, which, in fact, was demonstrated by the Poles. And they have the Mi-14PL with a completely modern filling normally performs its duties in the Baltic. Yes, the Poles are also withdrawing the Mi-14 from the armed forces, but this is being done only now, after so many years of operation.

Many authors of publications expressed a version that the Mi-14 became a victim of the purposeful "work" of the American special services and diplomacy. The Mi-14, which proved itself very well as a means of detecting submarines, including low-noise ones, which were considered elusive, made our new overseas "friends" very nervous.

And therefore, taking advantage of virtually permissiveness and putting the necessary pressure on Yeltsin, the Americans removed the Mi-14 from the naval aviation and thus greatly facilitated the life of their submariners.

This version was supported in one of the interviews by the chief designer of the Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant (now part of the ML Mil and NI Kamov National Center for Helicopter Building) Alexander Talov.

And one cannot but agree with those who believe that the hand of the United States is visible behind this. The withdrawal of the Mi-14 from aviation looked too unjustified, and it was all too good for the Americans.

We admit that after the Mi-14 and Ka-27 appeared in the USSR, we did not have more machines of a similar class. And today all that the naval aviation has in terms of anti-submarine weapons is the Ka-27, which the fleet is "wearing out". And some more Ka-27s are at the disposal of the FSB border service.

What kind of helicopter do you need?


The question of whether Russia needs today (I'm not even talking about tomorrow) a modern anti-submarine helicopter is unnecessary. The helicopter is needed, and there is nothing to discuss here.


Another question: which car? Multipurpose or percussion?

In general, today, according to many experts, our fleet is in dire need of a transport helicopter. Hence, a multi-purpose machine.

In general, the experience of using the Mi-14 as a cargo-and-passenger vehicle (a modification of the Mi-14GP, manufactured by Converse-Avia) was at the oil and gas fields. A copy of the Mi-14GP in 1996-1997 successfully serviced drilling platforms in the Caspian Sea.

That is, the Russian Navy should receive a new universal amphibious helicopter, which will replace the Mi-14 and Ka-27. And it will have more modern engines, new digital avionics. Naturally, to pay attention to additional buoyancy, on a wave of more than 3 points, with the propeller turned off, the helicopters turned over.


And of course, weapons.

The Mi-14PL had 36 RSL-NM “Chinara” buoys or 8 RBG-N “Niva” buoys in two cassettes in a pressurized compartment. Instead of buoys, the compartment housed the AT-1 anti-submarine torpedo or the Strizh small-size remote-controlled helicopter VVT-1 anti-submarine torpedo developed on its basis. It was possible to place anti-submarine bombs PLAB-50-64, PLAB-250-120 and PLAB-MK.

The power of the Mi-14's power plant was sufficient to transport the Scalp nuclear depth charge, a product weighing more than one and a half tons, within the range of the helicopter. In general, 2 kg of combat load allowed a very wide configuration of a set of weapons on a helicopter.

Resumption of production


But the set of weapons is a secondary matter. The main question is, is it possible at all to resume production of at least the Mi-14, not to mention newer models?

This is not easy, Kazan has already faced a lot of problems when resuming production of the Tu-160. Restoration of design documentation, technological chains, related suppliers, personnel who worked on projects ...

They coped with the plane in Kazan. This is encouraging. It is possible that it will work with the helicopter.

Of course, the old Mi-14 will partially help out, which can be modernized, and on this "fill your hand". Overhaul and subsequent modernization is something that can greatly facilitate the entire cycle.

There is some confidence that Kazan will be able to solve the problems described above and start production of, if not a new helicopter, then at least a well-modernized Mi-14PL. With more powerful engines and new generation avionics.

Experts believe that today the fleet's need is estimated at about 100 vehicles, both anti-submarine and search and rescue vehicles.


The main thing is not to get carried away with fantastic projects. We already have the Superjet and the MS-21, so we should act more rationally and down to earth. Then it's easier to take off.

And the last thing. The fact that projects “originally from the USSR”, such as the Il-476 and Tu-160M2, are currently being implemented, testifies to two things at once.

First, it turns out that Soviet planes and helicopters were quite fine for themselves, because after 30 years it is impossible for them to come up with replacements yet.

Second, the Russian design school is unable to overtake those who, half a century ago, invented new models of airplanes and helicopters.

There is an excuse for the second. There are few new models in the world from year to year. Still, not the beginning of the last century, when a plywood machine, linen, varnish and an automobile engine were needed for the appearance of a new aircraft.

Today, each new aircraft or helicopter is an achievement, since an aircraft developed from the ground up is a very difficult decision. This is a complex of complex decisions.

Considering that materials, technologies, digital systems are constantly being improved, working from scratch is very, very problematic.

And here the path taken by the Americans is quite real. Let's remember the F-16, which made its first flight in 1974, and was adopted in 1979. And it still stands. The question is, how does the first plane differ from those that are on the runways of American airfields 40 years later?

I'm sure it's amazing. With external similarity inside, these planes are completely different.

Why is this path not applicable for us?

Yes, there are plans to develop an amphibian based on the Mi-38. But for this it is first necessary to "test" the Mi-38 itself, master its production, maintenance and repair.

At the same time, we already have an amphibian with which everything can be cranked in the style of the F-16. Moreover, the fleet really does not need so many amphibious helicopters. And for the sake of hundreds of helicopters, it may not be worth developing a new project.

Once we have already made the whole world laugh with the desire to construct something “unparalleled in the world”, in the sense of “Superjet”. Which in essence and characteristics is the Brazilian "Embrayer".

At the same time, the already mentioned Il-476 is only outwardly similar to the progenitor of the Il-76. From the inside, it's a completely different plane.

Why not do the same with the anti-submarine helicopter, which, according to those caring for the fleet, is very necessary for our fleet?

            Before writing, you need to read a little history of creation. There was a Mi-4pl, they began to create an anti-submarine helicopter with TV8-2 engines based on the MI-117T, in the process of research and testing, the Mi-14pl with TV3-117 engines turned out, and after that, a version of the Mi-8MT with the same engines appeared. That is, the history of the Mi-8 and Mi-14 is connected.

                  Yeah ... the simplest thing is to create a plant for the production of turboshaft engines from scratch. And how cheap and fast. smile
                  The issue of localizing the production of engines by the Klimov Design Bureau in the Russian Federation has been resolved, EMNIP, since the mid-90s. For more than ten years, he was killed in negotiations with Boguslaev, who was persuaded either to create a joint venture in the Russian Federation, or to open a branch of his Motor Sich in the Russian Federation. Boguslaev fed them breakfasts, tried to get more and more favorable conditions ... In the end, the management realized that this music would be eternal - and it was decided to build its own plant. In 2010, JSC "Klimov" approved the construction of the plant (3,8 billion rubles, 7 years). In 2013, the first localized engines were assembled. But the establishment of a large series was delayed - and Boguslaev continued to drive Ukrainian engines even after 2014.

    Undoubtedly, the car needs to be reissued.
    But common sense dictates that the practical implementation of this reissue will take many years. The huge growth of bureaucracy "according to ISO 2000/2001", the huge underfunding, which has become our bad tradition, the embezzlement and squandering of funds and, most importantly, the loss of technological methods and skills, the change of generations of workers - all this will become stumbling blocks on the path of any modern undertaking

                Is there any photo of slipways with new wing or fuselage parts for Tu-160?
                There is none.
                As the body has been assembled, which has stood for almost 20 years, everything is still at the same level.
                They promised to roll out, but there is nothing.
                When they get it together, then we'll talk, so can we start talking?
                But as with the Il-76-MD - they promised 12 pieces a year, but it turns out 1-2 pieces, and then with the heroic efforts of the entire government ...
                About modernized engines - I would not call them modernized.
                Knowing Kuznetsov firsthand, knowing that 70-80% of the documentation was completely lost and could not be found for several years, they tried to restore the documentation for 6 years, and thwarted the delivery time of even not modernized engines for 10 years. They could not even repair the existing ones, due to the lack of documentation.
                Now they started not shaky not shaky.
                But they are not modernized.
                They are refurbished from old stocks that require renovation.

                How will digitizing drawings help you with a lost technological process as well as the lack of the required alloys and steels in the modern assortment?

                CNC machines for military enterprises stopped arriving back in 2015.

                Regarding the Mi-14PL, I will say the following, the gearbox will have to be made from scratch, our engines, the hull will have to be reworked and modernized, a new GAK will have to be made, new weapons, etc.!
                It makes no sense to simply produce the Mi-14, technology has gone ahead wink


                I agree with this.
                Everybody stopped producing amphibious helicopters.
                There is just as much sense in an amphibious helicopter as in an ekranoplan - exactly zero.

      Undoubtedly, the car needs to be reissued.
      But common sense dictates that ...
      And common sense dictates that if there is a possibility and the strength of the airframe remains, then it is better to upgrade what is possible and switch to the Mi-38PL.
      Explain why it should be done.
      1. The Mi-38 has a modern board configuration, is built using new technologies, and has better than the Mi-14 LTH:
      Mi-38: Max take off weight = 15600kg; Bearing load - inside the case -5000kg, on the external sling - 7000kg; Screw diameter -21,1m; length - 20m; Practical speed = 300 km / h; Practical range = 1300 km; Practical ceiling = 5100m, working = 3000m. New board based on IBKO-38 (avionics). The cost price is approximately 15 million rubles.
      Composites were used in the design, new engines - 2xTV7-117V, with a total power of 5000 hp, with afterburner (takeoff mode) - 7000 hp.
      2. What needs to be done to be adopted by the Navy?
      - put at least vert. version of "Novella", if any;
      - to strengthen the units of the hull structure, to make folding blades and aft beam, like in Bel. The casing is designed as "hermetic version".
      - to establish new means of search and destruction, a communication system and the IZOI.
      3. Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federationthat Mil created a new machine, so in 2016 he ordered a small series for testing in the army in a transport version for the Aerospace Forces. At the same time, they asked to strengthen the hull and retrofit the cargo compartment with loading and unloading mechanisms.
      4. Kazan residents have already mastered the production technology, they have an assembly line for this particular machine. And all the equipment for the Mi-14 has sunk into oblivion ... Therefore, the question of its restoration is an anachronism from the 70s of the last century. And who needs this hemorrhoid today?
      Therefore, you should not think that only we are so smart, and those who have been engaged in production and turntables all their lives do not whip the "moment".
      Yes, the base OVR and BMZ helicopter is very needed. It is even better if it is "single" for ship-based operations.
      But, unfortunately, today we have those that have us (and the fleet too!) .. in all the holes!
      IMHO.

    So, having burned himself on the PAK FA and having received a fighter of an indistinct generation and the same characteristics at an insane price, with its analogue in the form of the PAK DA program, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief decided not to rush. That is, PAK YES will be developed, of course, but


    The SU-57 is considered to be an indistinct generation only by those who are known to be "completely out of the material" or who are subject to Western propaganda who perceive any derogatory Western word about a Russian aircraft as the ultimate truth.
    The development of the PAK DA is proceeding according to schedule, which has been repeatedly stated and stated in the media, although the aircraft is already positioned not as a replacement for the TU-160 and TU-95 at once, but only as a replacement for the subsonic TU-95.
    "In 2019, the Ministry of Defense approved the final sketch of the PAK DA. The characteristics of the aircraft have been agreed, all contract documents necessary for the production of samples have been signed, preparatory stages of design are underway. The start of flight tests is included in the State Arms Program-2027."


    And there really is a topic for the Mi-14, but it will be split into three stages: repair of operated helicopters, their modernization, and only then the resumption of production.


    the question about the Mi-14 was raised back in 2015 and did not go further. And judging by the fact that the last MI-14 was produced in the distant 1986, the competence was lost and everything will have to start with the drawings. As was the case with the TU-160 when from the Soviet the new TU-160 received only a glider shape and appearance.

    The fact that projects “originally from the USSR”, such as the Il-476 and Tu-160M2, are currently being implemented, testifies to two things at once.

    First, it turns out that Soviet planes and helicopters were quite fine for themselves, because after 30 years it is impossible for them to come up with replacements yet.

    Second, the Russian design school is unable to overtake those who, half a century ago, invented new models of airplanes and helicopters.


    testifies only to one thing that the RF Ministry of Defense learned to count money and this happened because of the global economic crisis.
    From the Soviet in the new IL-476 (this is not the official name of the Il-76MD-90A aircraft) and the TU-160M2, only the shape of the airframe and a similar appearance, and the rest is all new. Indeed, why spend a lot of money to gain in aerodynamics in hundredths of a percent of the new airframe if you can use the "old" time-tested glider shape.

    That is, the Russian Navy should receive a new universal amphibious helicopter, which will replace the Mi-14 and Ka-27.


    it would be an attempt to cross a snake with a hedgehog. Therefore, a replacement for the KA-27 has already been determined, and this is the Minoga helicopter, a contract for the development of which the RF Ministry of Defense has already signed at the Army-2020 forum. Minoga, like the Ka-27, will not be floating ...

    The MI-14 project itself is essentially a flaw because the idea of ​​a "floating" helicopter was not brought to mind. Such a suitcase without a handle, which is hard to carry (already a lot of costs for finishing it up to mind) and sorry to leave because the idea itself was good.

      "From the Soviet in the new IL-476 .... and TU-160M2, only the shape of the airframe and a similar appearance, and the rest is all new" - the main thing is to write correctly, patriotically! And how much it corresponds to the truth - it doesn't matter! There is not the shape of the glider - there the glider itself remained practically the same, but in relation to the Tu-160 (and, it seems, some Il-76) - this glider was also started by construction in the USSR.

        the shape remained the same, and the composition of the materials from which it was assembled has seriously changed (due to a larger percentage of composite materials) and became lighter in weight, while maintaining strength.
        It has already taken 160 years to resume production of the TU-5, and it took even more to start producing the Il-76, and there is still no mass production.
        At the same time, the TU-160 is essentially an irreplaceable component of the nuclear triad, and the Il-76 cannot be replaced for both military and civilian transportation.
        MI-14 is a highly specialized helicopter, and its design itself imposes restrictions (for example, it is quite large to be placed in a hangar on a military ship) on applications, and anti-submarine aircraft are quite capable of finding and eliminating submarines, and the KA-27 is an excellent firefighter and rescuer on the water.

    The question is interesting ...
    At one time, the Mi-14 was a wonderful machine, but time goes by,
    and you need to think carefully before rushing to spend money.
    What is so good about this helicopter compared to the Ka-27?
    Flight range, operating time, combat load. Landing on water
    I do not consider it, in anti-submarine business this is not the main thing. What
    badly? Impossibility of basing on ships.
    What's so bad about both helicopters? Obsolete anti-submarine
    complex. Do we have a new anti-submarine complex that
    could be stuck into the old MI-14 building? I have not heard of this ...
    I think that this is exactly where we need to start, with a new complex
    search for submarines, based not only on GAS and RSL.
    In general, the issue of upgrading the Mi-14 should be returned only after
    how we will have a new submarine search complex. And the alteration of the cabins
    "from clocks to monitors", without solving the main problem, I consider it simple
    a waste of money and time.

      You yourself answered - Chinese "copies", in fact, turn out to be not copies at all, but completely independent products, only in appearance similar to the "original".
      Why do the Chinese do this? They save on advertising, the buyer is led by the appearance, which is shown from all televisions, friends / neighbors, see this thing in his hands, clatter their tongue .... psychology.
      In fact, in order to copy something, you need to have a level of technology comparable to the level of what you are copying. Roughly speaking, you can't cut an iPhone out of a log with an ax. One must be able to make not only the appearance, but also the filling - the microprocessor, the display, the battery, and even the case is beautiful and not crooked.
      And the more technological the product, the higher the level of the "copyist" industry should be.

      To make a good copy, you need a high technological level: machines, materials,
      base of electronics, software, specialists.
      All this is in China. They have a developed CIVIL industry.

          The Chinese follow the Japanese and South Korean paths.
          In the 60s, the "obscene" Japanese quality was scolded. In the 90s - "bawdy" Korean quality. Today South Korea is a world leader in shipbuilding. But China is catching up quickly.
          The Zvezda shipyard was built for Russia jointly by South Koreans and Chinese.
          And the diesels on the ships under construction there will be from these countries.

            With engines, both aircraft and marine, no one has yet been able to catch up with the leaders in a hundred years, this is the reality, and the Chinese cannot.
            For 15 years, from a resource of 300 hours, the Chinese came to the WS-10 resource of 900 hours of real, not invented 1200 hours. I present to you personally the opportunity to calculate when the Al-41 and F-100 will catch up on the resource.

    So, having burned himself on the PAK FA and having received a fighter of an indistinct generation and the same characteristics at an insane price, with its analogue in the form of the PAK DA program, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief decided not to rush. That is, PAK DA will be developed, of course, but ...
    Alas, you do not understand anything about this novel.
    To create a new 5th generation combat aircraft is a very difficult task, once again I think many others understand that you do not know much about this, he is a critic and a critic in Africa. So do not disgrace yourself and do not write.
    In the USSR, 20 years passed from project to mass production, and this did not take into account the collapse of the country and the crisis of the defense industry without money. Apart from scientific personnel. And ours miraculously created, so now you need to bring it up.
    And about f 35, but everyone knows about its problems, the Americans decided so, we will release more, and then we will bring it to mind. Although fine-tuning, I am impressed by the Israelis, they have always been smart.
    And the anti-submarine helicopter, Yes, and it is so clear that our country, namely the military sphere, needs a lot of things that can be updated, we will update, and what is not possible, we need to create a new one. The Americans have created a lot of things, only while this is all a concept. The Chinese copy and adapt everything for themselves. So there is a lot of work, but everyone can criticize, but create it yourself, so that it still works and flies. Let's remember the ka-52, they began to create it with the re-equipment of the ka-50, which they began to create already in 1976, and before production in 2008. Total 32 years. Thanks to Mikheev.

            The commander is always to blame, by definition. However, the immediate cause of the flooding was the destruction of the radar fairing, completely inappropriately squeezed into the bow of the amphibian. Again, the strong swing clearly showed how badly the helicopter behaves on the water, even with slight waves.

            Mi-14 is a bad car. Landing on water is dangerous for him. And there is no need for anti-submarine helicopters to land on the water. In hover mode, like all girder helicopters, it is inferior to the coaxial scheme. It would be better to take up the revision of the Ka-32.

Before that, there were Tu-160 / PAK-DA, MRK, armored vehicles of the Airborne Forces, but now they have reached the Mi-14 ... As a deck it does not fit - too long + non-folding blades. As a patrol / anti-submarine / search and rescue aircraft of protection water area is preferable aircraft type A-40 (long range, speed, load, patrol time, the ability to land on water and use a towed GAS). But of course they don't even remember about him - instructions from the Washington regional committee were not received ...

    The helicopter is not bad, but landing on the water was rather an exception to the rule. Then, it was necessary to thoroughly wash it with fresh water. Otherwise, the fuselage corroded quickly. Therefore, the units tried to avoid such events. This, according to a friend who served them.
    "The Americans removed the Mi-14 from the naval aviation and thereby greatly facilitated the life of their submariners." (c) - this is absolutely fantastic. The anti-submarine helicopter did not play a serious role in the confrontation between the two superpowers.

    I'll add my five cents. To begin with, you need to understand that the MI-14, Mi-8 (with all modifications) and the Mi-17 are essentially the same helicopter in different guises. And they are being produced to this day. The problem is only in the lower part of the Mi 14, but you can follow the path of the "wedding" technology (when large knots are connected in technology). This can be developed by modern managers, oh designers. There are no problems with the REO, PNK, BIUS systems.

    It’s not that I’m the order of the argument, but I’ll express my idea. Restoring the production of Soviet designs is certainly better than buying weapons from China for petrodollars, but also a dead-end path. While we are building equipment from the 70s-80s and not very successfully copying Ukrainian turbines of Soviet design, our enemies have infinitely broken away in communication and control systems and strongly in many other directions. The only way to keep up forever is to develop and manufacture the latest systems, even if they are more expensive, less reliable and come into operation with incomplete functionality. Under the Soviet Union, this approach did not bother anyone; And we are theoreticians with SU-57 and Armata, if anything we will fight on T-72 and MiG-29. So it is possible to restore the IL-2 in production as an anti-partisan aircraft and the T-62 as an anti-Barmaley tank.

      16 November 2020 07: 56
      Where did they come off, and how does the communication system compare with the Soviet T-72 from its presence? The problem of the T-72 from the presence is not communication systems, because they will fit in there perfectly, like any new electronics, the problem is just a gun, an engine, armor, if these components become outdated, then at least some systems will work out at best, a good and well-tested Pz-III with a 50 mm cannon against the T-34, which is still crude, primitive in places, but has a much more powerful gun and thicker armor.

      But just in the west there are no new tanks with more powerful guns and armor. They have not appeared in 30 years, and will not appear in the coming years.

    For a very long time, on duty, I had to fly "over all kinds of seas" and sometimes contact naval aviators. I learned from them that the Mil company made a floating modification of the Mi-70 - the Mi-8 helicopter and it is better than the Kashek in the mid-14s. The time was different then. Everything was in Soyuei, and it took at least 1,5 - 2 years from the adoption of the resolution of the Council of Ministers to the rolling out of the first copy of the new machine. Now, if Shoigu insists, production will be established, but for this, somewhere else they will "stop", because even if money is "given" for this, there is no free capacity and there is not much else for this. How many of these helicopters will be made, what is the annual need for them, etc.? Now every new Tu-160 is shown on TV, and in Soviet times they switched to new equipment in staged fashion and no one “rattled” about it. The Duma approved a new minister, who had previously headed Aeroflot. What has this airline become under him? For the most part, she, as before, "sits" on Boeing and Airbus, and we recently wrote off the last "Carcass". As for the aviation of local airlines or regional, whatever you call it: airfields and airfield facilities are outdated, there are no new domestic aircraft. “Poor” An-2 has been modernizing for three decades and everything is useless: either there are no composite materials, then there are engines ... .., and you still need pilots, technicians, service personnel, workers. Are they being prepared? Where?
    I do not touch on specific issues: avionics, digitalization, network-centric systems, not only because I understand little about this, but also because I am sure that there are also a huge variety of different problems around this. How could the IL-112 be designed for a payload of about 6 tons, so that it could actually lift only 1,5 tons? How much will the engines bring for him? There are no answers to this day.
    In my opinion, a new generation needs to build a new helicopter, at a new enterprise and in a new way in everything, and while this is not there, it is reasonable to carry out the entire range of repair and maintenance work on Soviet helicopters still available and suitable for use as intended.
    It seems to me that there is logic in this.

      For 1.5-2 years, you can make only a minor modification. Complex and fundamentally new systems were not built much faster than now, the same MiG-29 and Su-27 began in 1968, and the first flight of the MiG-29 was made in 1977 when it began to enter the troops in 1982. This is despite the fact that the Soviet army was 5 times larger and military expenditures on both sides were many times higher with significantly simpler equipment. But all you have to do is whine, even about the Su-57 being launched into production in record time.

      Nobody needs An-2 without subsidies for tickets, and where necessary, roads have long been paved.

        Don't tell me about the Soviet Army, it's my dad and mom and I served in it for 25 years. There is no such thing as "unprincipled modification". Do not clog the brains of yourself and others. We at the Air Force Research Institute received MiG-29s around 1979, and in 1978 in the GSVG two regiments were already "sitting" on them. The job of the military is to master the technique in a timely manner and learn how to effectively use it on the battlefield, and not talk about military spending. The state teaches you. shoes, dresses, feeds, heals and pays wages on time. Took the oath - if you please do it! In the United States, the number of F-35 fighters will soon reach 1 vehicles, while we have only "record terms" so far. I do not know who and where laid the roads, and the An-2 is the only aircraft in Aeroflot that has paid for itself. All over the world, civil aviation cannot exist without state subsidies, everyone knows this. I have already written that a new generation needs to build new aviation equipment, at a new enterprise and in a new way in everything.

          As for the An-2 and self-sufficiency, when you go to fly from New York to Paris to see the Eiffel Tower, these are your problems, and no one will give you subsidies for this. And in general, all sorts of tourists, by definition, are solvent. But for the grandmothers who need to fly from the taiga to the city, there will be subsidies, since the grandmothers are not able to pay. So, now all the same, large planes fly, not corn workers.

What New York, Paris, "Fefeleva Tower", "grannies from the taiga", "self-sufficient tourists." What are you talking about? To begin with, you need to get a specialized economic education at Moscow State University or the Academy of Civil Aviation in Moscow. Then you will be able to operate with such concepts as direct and indirect costs, the pricing mechanism for air transport, the stimulating role of the state and its influence on airline tariffs, etc. But not everyone is allowed to go there - some are not smart enough, others cannot afford. So it turns out from them like according to Yesenin: "A man can judge for hours about the thing that sticks out between his legs." In developed countries, civil aviation is developing harmoniously, or at least strives for it. There is a place in it for main liners and for maize workers.

    At one time, the Mi-14 was a wonderful machine, but time goes by,
    and you need to think carefully before rushing to spend money.
    What is so good about this helicopter compared to the Ka-27?
    Flight range, operating time, combat load. Landing on water
    I do not consider it, in anti-submarine business this is not the main thing. What
    badly? Impossibility of basing on ships.
    What's so bad about both helicopters? Obsolete anti-submarine
    complex. Do we have a new anti-submarine complex that
    could be stuck into the old MI-14 building? I have not heard of this ...
    I think that this is exactly where we need to start, with a new complex
    search for submarines, based not only on GAS and RSL.
    In general, the issue of upgrading the Mi-14 should be returned only after
    how we will have a new submarine search complex. And the alteration of the cabins
    "from clocks to monitors", without solving the main problem, I consider it simple

    just as in the past, the mi-14 gave its main gearbox for the mi-8mt, so the current developments on the engines and bearing systems of the new mt-shek can be used to improve the flight characteristics of the machine.
    in my opinion, you are all seething with the mi-14 comes from the fact that the KUMAPP is experiencing great difficulties of an economic nature and is not ready for a full resumption of production of anti-submarine ka-27, but it can serially modernize the available ka-27, which, by the way, according to military balance 2020: ka27pl - 41, ka27m-22.
    in this vein, a more prosperous, albeit not a problem-free KHZ, with the resumption of production of mi14, taking into account the extreme developments in the G2020, can provide not only the maintenance of the capabilities of naval aviation in the near sea zone, but also some strengthening of the existing group. according to millitary balance 14, the same mi20pl-14, mi40ps-XNUMX.

    PAK-DA and Tu-160 are different types of bombers!

    PAK-DA will be subsonic and inconspicuous and it is going to replace the Tu-22 and Tu-95. And work is underway on it and no one is going to abandon it.

    And the Tu-160 is a powerful supersonic strategic bomber. Its advantage is speed and range, and it is needed in the troops along with the stealthy and more economical PAK-DA.

    And they also make a new helicopter, "Lamprey" and he has to sit on which deck. We already have corvettes and frigates that can carry one helicopter, two helicopter carriers are under construction.

    And the Mi-14 is good for operations from the coast, which is why Poland uses it, because it does not have a fleet as such.

    But I agree that a helicopter capable of landing on water with a range of 1000 km would be useful for both the fleet and rescuers.

By the way, explain the felt boots: is a hangar for a helicopter in case of a storm? Is it possible to attach them to the deck so that Satan won’t tear them off? Should we install a second helicopter instead of a hangar? (and also, screw it to the deck with nuts 32). Hide refueling hoses in hatches below deck.
