"The new aircraft gives them reason to be proud": German press about the Ukrainian An-178-100R

When, at the end of 2020, the Ukrainian government ordered three An-178 versions of the 100R from Antonov, the project of a new aircraft got off the ground. Until that moment, the only customer of the An-178 was Peru, which also purchased three aircraft for its Air Force. Five months later, the fuselage of the first vehicle being built for the needs of the Ukrainian army is ready.

The new plane gives them a reason to be proud

- noted in the Flug Revue about the Ukrainian military transport An-178-100R, intended for the country's air force.



Assembly of the first building began at Antonov in March this year. It is planned that by the end of the year it will receive engines of the D-436-148FM type, developed by the Ukrainian enterprises Motor Sich and Ivchenko Progress.

The fulfillment of this contract is a matter of honor for our company. Therefore, our employees will do their best to fulfill their obligations with high quality and on time.

- said the general director of "Antonov" Sergei Bychkov.

The German press calls the modernized modification of the An-178-100R "a universal, economical and durable version" of the aircraft, which took off for the first time in 2015. It was developed specifically for the needs of the Ukrainian Air Force and is considered the successor to the outdated An-12 and An-26 turboprop models.

At the same time, the An-178-100R boasts durability, powerful characteristics and low operating costs.

- explained in the German edition.

The maximum payload of the new aircraft is 18 tons, the flight range is 4200 km, and the cruising speed is 825 km / h. The spacious cargo compartment has a volume of 167 cubic meters, allowing to accommodate more than 90 soldiers or 86 paratroopers in equipment (or up to 48 stretchers for the wounded). It also provides for the air discharge of cargo and equipment weighing up to 7,5 tons.

            It's too early for Ukrainians to boast
            By the way, Peru suspended the order for 3 aircraft back in 2020 (in September, it seems) - https://ria.ru/20200925/an-178-1577778880.html

              I know, actually. Even a glider is not an airplane. I just wrote that 5 months from the conclusion of the contract to the first fuselage of the new modification is not so much. A month of hype, a month of confusion, a month of calculations, a couple of months of unhurried riveting by the same teams of reduced personnel of different airframe units ...

              On Thursday, the Russian media, citing "journalist" Ricardo Zedano, reported on the alleged suspension of the execution of the contract for the purchase and sale of the An-178 aircraft by the Peruvian Ministry of Internal Affairs.
              ...
              It should be noted that the entry was published by Russian digital media. Earlier, the Russian media presented Ricardo Zedano as a TeleSUR journalist, whose office is located in Venezuela, and his opinion as an analytical note of a popular publication. But Ricardo Zedano does not work for TeleSUR and in the "I am a reporter" section he published only two articles in which he expresses his subjective opinion as a blogger. And the last article was generally published as a smart opinion on the little-visited site of the Federation of Peruvian Periodicals.
              ...
              In fact, Ricardo Zedano works in the media holding MIA "Russia Today" and lives in Moscow, as he reports on his personal pages in Blogger, Vkontakte, Twitter and Facebook. His publications are regularly presented as the opinion of the Latin American press, and in fact are purely Russian propaganda.

            On the first An-178 there were problems with centering - like 1300 kg. ballast was loaded just behind the cockpit. So they probably recounted and reworked. Another thing is interesting - how did you get rid of the Russian components in a fairly short time? There were a lot of them ... About the D-436 engine, Boguslaev said that it (the engine) is also more than 70% Russian ... The intentions are certainly serious - the Kiev aircraft plant bought the equipment for the production of the titanium center section of the An-1x8 aircraft from Kharkov.

              D-436 is a Ukrainian engine. Due to its absence, the production of the Be200 was stopped for several years in due time. And Angara stopped operating An148 due to the fact that it was impossible to carry out planned maintenance.

And it is produced in Ukraine in Zaporozhye, no one disputes this. The certificate of origin, of course, is also Ukrainian.

      So it seems like a good plane.
      Our Air Force would also be useful. In fact, it was made with Russian money at one time, when our Defense Ministry preferred to develop exactly "Antonov", putting Il and Tu on starvation rations.
      Now we have no planes either, and they have no one to sell theirs to.

      Until that moment, the only customer for the An-178 was Peru, which also purchased three aircraft for its Air Force.
      A third of which consisted of parts made in Russia. The representatives of the South American country refused the services of the Ukrainians, revealing the deception, and are now looking closely at the Russian Il-112. This aircraft is an analogue of the An-178, but its acquisition is not associated with such serious problems.It is also interesting whether the design error was eliminated or not, due to the incorrect alignment of the liner, the An-178 can perform any long flights only with ballast. weighing 1,32 tons in the form of 15 steel plates, laid behind the cockpit. It was with such a load that the An-178 traveled to the air shows in Le Bourget and Dubai. Immediately after landing, the ballast was quickly unloaded and hid. Is there any reason for pride now, I would like to know ..

          MOSCOW, November 12 - RIA Novosti. Ukraine wanted to sell an An-65 stealth plane to Peru for $ 178 million, according to the website of the Federation of Journalists of Peru. The resource notes that Russia can offer an alternative.
          Earlier, a source in the field of military-technical cooperation told RIA Novosti that Peru suspended the contract signed in 2019 for the purchase of Ukrainian An-178 aircraft to replace the outdated An-32 for the national police, since the customer estimates its implementation as unlikely. According to the source, the Ukrainian side deliberately misinformed the Peruvians a year ago, promising that there would be no problems with Russian elements, in fact, the plane is only 40% ready, since there are no Russian components for it, the Ukrainians could not find a replacement for them.
          Centering issues are also a lie, right? Then refute it, if you please.

                  Excuse me:
                  I would like to say more, because there has been a lot of writing about this in the media. About 1.5 years ago, the leaders of Ukroboronprom signed a contract with Peru for one An-178 aircraft and made a lot of PR about this. They signed a contract with Peru for $ 65 million, they classified it so that no one knew what was written there. But then an acquaintance told me that there is 26% (and this is almost 16 million dollars) of the rollback, so, naturally, our plane won the competition of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Peru. But then, when they figured out in Peru that the plane was not mass-produced, it was unclear how to certify it, and so on. According to the information that I saw in the media today, they suspended this contract there, and the head who signed it was removed from office. Since Antonov did not receive a single penny of money under this contract, they stopped its production.

                        the minister who signed the contract with the Ukrainians was removed with a scandal
                        just because of corruption
                        so if the contract were to be terminated, everyone in Peru would trample on this topic ..

                          Well, the order of the rollback can be quite figured out. For example, we recently changed 2 transformers at the substation. Each costs an average of 90 million rubles at the plant. The securities were transferred to the balance sheet for 140. It is not difficult to calculate the size of the rollback in the pocket of the management)))

                          In addition, the quote was not about figured out, but supposedly someone told him that it was 16 million.

And it's better to keep quiet about the Il-112, with a high degree of probability, it will never be able to fulfill the laid down performance characteristics.

The An-70 is the same - as far as I know, 50% of the intellectual property should be Russian, I don't remember, but it seems like a fuselage (which might be perfect for a 276), a tail unit and something else that should have been produced in the Russian Federation, like ours so easily could refuse? An-140, production was localized, well, they would call the LTS-140, drill a couple of extra holes, rearrange something with something and for how many years they would have been producing it as their own product and torturing the Il-112 (if it was needed)

      In the meantime, An-148 continues to "crush concrete" at the Irkutsk airport.

      In Russia, it was recognized that it was impossible to operate the An-148 without Ukraine. Only one of the five An-148 aircraft of the Angara airline can be operated, while the other four “crush the concrete” at the Irkutsk airport due to the lack of AI-450-MS conditioned auxiliary power units (APU) produced by the Ukrainian company Motor-Sich , CEO of the company Sergey Salmatov told the portal Propeller.News.

      The head explained the impossibility of full-fledged operation of the aircraft by the "collapse of the former Soviet aviation industry", in particular, by the modern relations between Russia and Ukraine. “After all, in fact, the An-148 is a joint product of the two countries,” Salmatov admitted. “All talks about the serial production of An-148 for commercial airlines have gradually faded away. As a result, in 2018, the Voronezh aircraft plant produced the last aircraft for the Russian Ministry of Defense. Since then, the production of the An-148 in Russia has been mothballed, ”the CEO admitted.

      Salmatov recalled that the developer of the aircraft and its first manufacturer was the Ukrainian state enterprise (SE) Antonov, on the basis of the design documentation of which the Voronezh Joint-Stock Aircraft Manufacturing Company (VASO) began to produce the An-148.

      According to him, currently Angara has ten D-436-148 propulsion engines for AN-148, five of which were suspended from operation due to technical inconsistencies by Motor Sich's decision. Of the 12 AI-450-MS APUs available to the airline, ten were suspended due to technical inconsistencies. “As a result, only a couple of serviceable AI-450MS engines are in operation, which are installed on the RA-61711 and RA-61714 machines. As you can see, now we can actually operate only one An-148 out of five, ”Salmatov said.

      The head added that the Russian company Borisfen, associated with Motor Sich, has not yet completed the repair of the engines sent to him, and modular repair of engines for the An-148 is ineffective under the conditions of the latter.

From the shown piece of the fuselage to the creation of a full-fledged aircraft, well, a very long road.

      The tests of the first side of the An-178 were not carried out in full ... If you try to solve the problem of alignment of the aircraft, the new modernized side must complete the test program from scratch ...
      Before the breakup of relations, Antonov's tests took place in Russia; there are simply no conditions, equipment and competencies in Ukraine ... And then we often turned a blind eye to many things, used abbreviated programs and so on ("brothers" zhezh, damn it) ...
      Building serial aircraft without testing is either PR zeliboba (he is stupid, he thinks that you can deceive many people for a long time, they will not fly anyway), or an ideological "super task": to release the first (and last) serial aircraft in seven years since Maidan. ..
