UAC plans to supply the Russian Aerospace Forces with an additional batch of MiG-35 light multipurpose fighters

The Russian Aerospace Forces will receive an additional batch of the latest MiG-35 multi-role fighters, the delivery of aircraft is scheduled for the coming years. This was announced by the head of the United Aircraft Corporation Yuri Slyusar.

Currently, the Russian Aerospace Forces are armed with six MiG-35 fighters. New aircraft will arrive in the coming years, but Slyusar did not announce the exact dates. According to him, the delivery will again be for aerobatic teams, but the UAC hopes that the aircraft will also be ordered by the Russian Aerospace Forces. In 2019, the MiG-35 participated in the Indian Air Force tender, but lost out to the French Rafale.



Six MiG-35s have been delivered, including for our aerobatic teams. This year, we do not provide for deliveries, we delivered ahead of schedule in previous years what we were supposed to deliver this year. Additional deliveries are expected in the coming years. These aircraft should also go to aerobatic teams, and, we hope, will find application in the Air Force.

- leads TASS words of the head of the KLA.

The MiG-35 fighter is a further development of the MiG-29 fighter line. Developed in single and double versions - MiG-35 and MiG-35D. The fighter is designed to gain air superiority, as well as to destroy ground targets at any time of the day and under any weather conditions.

The MiG-35 is equipped with new engines with increased thrust, is equipped with an in-flight refueling system and is capable of acting as a tanker itself. The maximum takeoff weight of the fighter is 24 kg, the maximum load is 500 tons. Speed ​​- 6,5 km / h, maximum thrust - 2100 kgf. The practical ceiling is declared at 18000 thousand meters, the flight range is 16 thousand kilometers. It has nine external hardpoints and a built-in 3mm cannon. Capable of carrying guided and unguided weapons.

Among the advantages of the aircraft are reduced radar signature, quadruple redundancy of all control channels, new avionics, a radar with AFAR, an optical-location station and a helmet-mounted target designation and indication system, a new cockpit with a high level of information content and automation.

      Now this is already interesting. AFAR. Did you finish the AFAR Zhuk-AM?
      . The MiG-35 is planned to be equipped with the N010 Zhuk-AM radar with AFAR, which is capable of detecting a target with an EPR of 5 m2 at a distance of 225 km. But the F-22 has an EPR, which is 10 times lower - 0,5 m2. Thus, the maximum detection range of the F-22 Zhuk-AM radar will be 126 km - in proportion to the root of the 4th degree of 10 - 1,778 times less.
      It is not possible to install the N35 Irbis radar on the MiG-035, as on the Su-35S, since it has too much mass for the MiG-35 airframe. Moreover, it is impossible to install the N007 "Barrier-AM" radar as on the MiG-31BM.
      Nevertheless, the H010 Zhuk-AM radar will allow you to confidently detect, from a distance of more than 200 km, the latest modifications of NATO 4+ generation fighters. These are the latest modifications of the Rafal, Eurofighter Typhoon, F-15, F-16 and F-18 fighters. They form the basis of the NATO fighter fleet.
      As a light front-line fighter, the MiG-35 will be a worthy aircraft, comparable to the Rafal fighter.

      Zhuk-A/AM

      During the international air show MAKS-2019, Fazotron presented the latest AESA (Zhuk-A /AM) radar for the MiG-35. The radar has 1000 solid-state transceiver modules. Export customers can choose this radar instead of the MiG-35 serial production PESA radar.
      Why are light fighters not held in high esteem? All over the world, on the contrary, they rely on them. good

          Of course, in vain. Betting only on heavy fighters is absurd. In the USSR, there were an order of magnitude more light MiG-29s than heavy Su-27s.
          Ideally, the bet should be made on the heavy Su-57, Su-34M, and light MiG-35 / Su-75. All. The Su-35S could be produced before the serial production of the Su-57, and the Su-30SM / SM2 is completely off topic, its functions can be performed by the Su-34M, the base from the Su-27 is the same.

              Due to the more powerful radar, Drying launched earlier. Yes, and in terms of load, Drying drags more than the 29th. Drying is designed as a fighter to gain air supremacy. And the MiG is the terminator of Dog Fight. In close combat with a helmet-mounted aiming system and the R-73 URVV, in my opinion, no one has a chance to defeat the MiG. And why he was given the BEETLE is understandable. A penguin needs a modern radar to target.

            At the same cost, the large SU-35S is almost as good as the small MIG in aerial combat, the advantage there, if any, is scanty, but Sushka can carry more weapons and work as an infantry assistant. And for the interception of high-altitude or fast targets, there is still a MIG-31.

              All this is fine, but the practice of modern military operations of approximately equal sides shows that the aircraft of both sides are "not allowed to breathe" in the theater of the air defense system by various air defense systems, and if they come into contact, then the one who discovered the enemy earlier wins at a great distance and who have more long-range air-to-air missiles. Maneuverability is obtained not particularly in business. The situation, of course, can change dramatically, but so far artillery, missiles, and drones for a wide range of purposes and actions dominate.

                It turns out that CBO will change a lot in tactics. Saturation with infantry anti-tank weapons, nullifies tank wedges, well, practically nulls. Tanks fire like howitzers from closed OPs, supporting infantry with fire from a distance.
                The saturation of the front and rear air defense will also change the tactics of using aviation.
                It is possible to suppress air defense with radar (I spoke as best I could))), I apologize) all sorts of TORS, Buki, but if you saturate the infantry with portable air defense systems, it is impossible to suppress them all. It's like RPG 7 for a tank (all RPG modifications).
                I can imagine if during the Second World War our infantry had such a number of RPGs.

              In fact, everything is exactly the opposite. The Su-35 is almost twice as expensive as the MiG-35, consumes almost twice as much fuel, but is also much stronger than the MiG-35 in combat, simply because they are fighters of different classes.
              The Su-35 is a heavy air superiority fighter, an analogue of the F-15, as well as the Su-57 and F-22, but of the previous generation.

              The MiG-35 is a multifunctional fighter, in other words, a hard worker for everything, it is an analogue of the F-16 and Rafal, and in ALL the world's air forces it is the most numerous class of fighter and in many cases the only one. F-35 of the same class, but of a different generation.
              The fact that our Air Force has gone its own way and is replenishing our Aerospace Forces ONLY with heavy and expensive Dryers is a crime.

              Our Air Force needs the MiG-35, and wisely it needs to be ordered at least three hundred until 2030, completely stopping orders and production of the Su-35 in favor of the Su-57, while continuing to produce the Su-34M and Su-30SM2, as unified as possible with Su-35. At the same time, on the basis of the Su-57 engine and developments on the Su-57, it is urgent to develop a light fighter to replace the MiG-35, as well as a two-seat Su-57, which will have to replace the Su-30SM2 and Su-34M.
              And aerobatic teams do not need modern AFAR radars.

            Yes, sure. The Su-27 m has more powerful radar and weapons. He himself was created in order to dominate the air and regularly performed his role.
            The raptor from the shtatovites will also tear the Penguin into rags. But for some reason it didn't occur to the Pentagon to transfer the Air Force to the Raptors...

            For what "for that"? MiG was originally created as a station wagon with the ability to work on the ground. And the Su-27 was a refined fighter. And the MiG learned to work on the ground MUCH earlier than Su. And now the capabilities of both machines are completely identical. They even have a range of weapons almost 1 to 1. Only the MiG cannot carry the heaviest missiles.
            Actually, from attempts to make a station wagon out of the Su-27, both the Su-34 and Su-30MKI were born, which has now become the Su-30MS.

              In general, there are very few countries in the world capable of maintaining a fleet of specialized combat aircraft. USSR could. The US can. But Germany is no more. She has neither attack aircraft nor bombers.

              Su-34 is a niche vehicle. And for some Thailand, it’s just “not for Senka a hat” to have a separate bomber aircraft. As well as for Germany too.

            The French do not understand the term economy, and their tanks and other crap are examples of this. Everyone understands that 1 engine is much cheaper than 2, and even this 1 engine has some advantages in dry weight over 2. about maneuvers, the situation is no longer so unambiguous, somewhere better than 2, somewhere better than 1. But the survivability of a 2-engine aircraft will always be better than a single-engine one. Another question is whether it is needed for a modern fighter. This is already a philosophical question.

              The low production cost of a single-engine glider, to the detriment of its survivability, is clearly adequate for unmanned fighter aircraft.

          Only at exhibitions, since there are no orders from relatives of the VKS. Then give the outdated Zhuk-M to be cheaper, and so the AFAR Zhuk-AM was finished and ready to be sold for export, but who will take it if the relatives of the VKS do not buy Mig-35 with AFAR Zhuk- AM for the sake of economy. It turns out a vicious circle. Foreign customers are waiting for the AFAR to be checked in the VKS, and the VKS are waiting for foreign customers to check the AFAR in practice, and then buy it yourself. The Mig-35 is a wonderful aircraft. It’s a pity that we don’t buy it out of stupidity. We just need to buy cheap and technologically backward Su-35SM, and not the latest MiG-30. What kind of progress can we talk about with such installations? Although what is it I, if we didn’t even really deal with drones before the start of the NWO.

Okay, the 5th generation was like the Su-57, then he would be forgiven for such a long exit into the world. But it's not like that. In my opinion, from a conditional sofa, the Mikoyan Design Bureau should already be abandoned this 35th and move on to the development of a 5th generation light fighter so that it butts with the F-35 while the Su-57 puts the F-22 on the shoulder blades.

            The MiG-35 is a "trademark" of the MiG-29M2 platform. Its main property is that it is absolutely open. On the basis of one aircraft with minimal alterations, you can get a carrier-based IS, a single long-range, a double, a double combat training, a single heavy. Let me remind you that the Su-35 does not have a two-seat version at all. Su-30 is exclusively double. And so far no one has even talked about the ship version of the dry ones.
            So, the MiG-29M2 platform has been ready for more than 10 years. In Lukhovitsy, even now they can launch a series. Latency is not in KB. The military can not determine the "stuffing" of the machine. Unlike the Sukhoi Zoo, in 29M2 you can install almost any combination of radar, engine and avionics that fit into the dimensions. Whether domestic or foreign. BUT the military has been dragging their feet for many years and engaged in pettiness. Instead of ending the period of Pogosyanism and choosing ONE heavy fighter, and spending the money saved on the production of the modern version of the MiG-29M2 and the modernized Su-34 for the Armed Forces and the Navy, they stubbornly drag the Su-30 and Su-35 drunk, pumping billions into pointless production of almost identical aircraft. And for the MiG-35, everyone is trying to find a complete set of ram and sticks, but no matter how they try, nothing good comes of it. Everyone understands that a 30-year-old radar station has nothing to do in a modern aircraft. But there is no money. Zoo Poghosyan ate everything. Vaughn recently announced a Su-30SM modernization program. They will fill it with electronics from the Su-35.

        Although hard to believe
        2010: The Fazotron-NIIR Corporation began serial production of the Zhuk-AE active phased array radar, intended for installation on the export version of the MiG-35 multifunctional fighter. In the future, these radars are supposed to be installed on the MiG-29K/KUB and MiG-29SMT launched into production. In the coming year, the corporation plans to produce 10 Zhuk-AE airborne radars.

        Anatoly Kanashchenkov, First Deputy General Director and General Designer of Fazotron-NIIR, told Interfax that the corporation is participating in the modernization of 64 MiG-29 fighters of the Indian Air Force. He noted that in 2010 the enterprise will continue work on finalizing the radars installed on the MiG-29SMT "Algerian contract" fighters.

          Outdated sighting systems (the same "Platan" on the Su-34 and the Sh141 radar) are the creation of the Soviet military-industrial complex, which is 30 years old from the moment of development.

          If the optical system were remade in a hanging container and another radar was installed, then the production of the Su-34 would become impossible due to the fact that it would no longer be necessary.

            Do not distort, I wrote about the insignificant Air Force. At the beginning of 22, they had 40 MiG-29s, 20-25 Su-27s, 25-30 Su-25s, and about 15 Su-24s. All sides Soviet built. All are extremely decrepit, they have been engaged in the restoration of their flight readiness for all 8 years.
            And we cannot cope with this aviation for a year. They fly, moreover, they bomb. I don’t write about mythical deliveries from abroad, this one is completely for the stupid. There are no Su-24s and Su-27s in Eastern Europe. Su-25 and MiG-29 were indeed transferred, but in small quantities and, again, the old dead sides.
            About air defense. In 1991 it was really strong, but that was 32 years ago. All that remained there for 2022 in terms of object air defense was a maximum of 10 S-300 divisions and a few Buk, with expired missiles. This is not a weak air defense, but it did not represent anything special either.
            What is the result for the year? Their air defense just got stronger than a year ago. Now it is really difficult to overcome it.
            But most importantly, aviation is needed for strikes on the ground and assistance to ground forces and for nothing else. This can be strategic bombing of objects in the rear, collecting and transmitting intelligence or work in direct support of troops, etc.
            What is the upshot here? Yes, aviation has no real impact on the enemy, even tactical assistance from it is scanty. Yes, the policy of "goodwill gestures" plays a certain role here, but it is far from being the only one.

It is pointless to compare with the USSR, then production was an order of magnitude larger, and then there were an order of magnitude more aircraft in the Air Force and Air Defense.

    Road spoon to dinner. Unfortunately, the plane was at least 20 years late. If they had a normal fleet today - at least 200-250 cars, still all right. But, in fact, only aerobatic pilots have them and fly in parades. It would be better if all efforts were thrown at a single-engine LFI under 33 units, its thrust is almost the same as that of two RD-33MK. And the Mig Design Bureau should be sent to quickly complete the replacement of the MIG-31 (if, of course, it is being done and not rumors of the OBS agency.

      What MiG-31??? What are you? Our industry is not capable of producing it now. Only upgrade.
      The MiG-35 is not obsolete. Nothing to be outdated. The military cannot shape his appearance in any way.
      The military does not need a single-engine aircraft. Not needed since the end of the Vietnam War.

    It is strange that they did not dare to bury the stewardess. Why the country needs a second light-heavy fighter is not clear. Not a marine version, not a single-engine, namely, not fully finished ("in a few years") twin-engine? Again export dreams?

      Inevitability pushes. It is already clear to everyone that it is simply impossible to upgrade the Air Force fleet to heavy Su. Pogosyanovism was outright Manilovism and deceit. There is no money or resources for this. Light-heavyweight, medium-heavyweight... ANYTHING, as long as it is made faster than dry ones and costs less. Even though it still won't work. The dry ones have already practically killed the MiG Design Bureau.
      And my advice to you, take the trouble to study what the MiG-29M2 is ...

        From what was in open sources, the 35th is not a deck 29M2, finishing 35 to a marine version is a separate step. As for "it will be done faster and cost less," I don't really believe (again, there are no sources, it's a matter of faith) - only an experimental batch has been assembled, piece by piece per year. This cannot be compared with the capacities of the Sukhoi assembly plants. And in terms of the prospects of the model, it is better to put it on the Su-75 than to carry a 40-year-old platform. On the other hand, if the campaign drags on for another couple of years, they may be in time.

          They are. MiG-29M2 is a single platform. KB simply does not have the ability to make different cars. For the ship version, special equipment is mounted on this single platform. All other options are also received, including the fat, which is called the MiG-35.

          No. Firstly, there is no Su-75 in nature. Secondly, the military does not consider single-engine vehicles for the Air Force at all.
          In Lukhovitsy, there is an unloaded MiG plant ready for production on the 35th. The only question is political will.

    Until now, the Ministry of Defense has not reached the point that the aircraft, as a means of delivery, is a secondary matter. The main thing for him is not to be shot down by air defense, which means that he needs to launch missiles or planning smart bombs. This means that rocket scientists and microelectronics engineers have a key role: solid fuel recipes, microcircuits, communications and sensors. And with this, everything has been bad for Rossiushka since the days of the Soviet Union. So it is not necessary to kick the aviators, but it is not known who. After all, the conditions for commercial production have not been created (competition for a specialist with the help of financial and social goodies), and the state has long lost its competence for technological breakthroughs in "sharashka", i.e. forced labor of high-tech specialists.

      With solid fuel yes, you are right. It has been bad since the beginning of the 60s, when the United States was already making missiles for Pollaris submarines on this solid fuel with very serious characteristics of that time.
      The USSR could not make such missiles - they did liquid ones and so far this gap has not been overcome - the Bulava has not been brought to the level of Trident-2.

      Of course, the United States and France have a lot of experience in solid rockets and composite bodies for them.
      All of their submarine missiles are solid propellant, "Ariane" and "Shuttle" are also partially solid fueled.

Or is everything fine with us and Kyiv will fall tomorrow? isn't it time, if not to stop, then at least to suspend the usual cut until victory? What moments, what aerobatic teams?

    The question is really interesting. On the one hand, a certain number of additional aircraft would not hurt, but on the other hand, what wouldn’t hurt, for what current and future tasks that the existing fleet can’t cope with ... Practice has shown that gaining real air supremacy depends not so much on super-maneuverability, but on the survivability and range of the air defense system. The same practice has shown that helicopters pitch up as well as attack aircraft, and it is difficult to say which works better, attack helicopters or attack aircraft, without having statistics. In my opinion, uninitiated in the subtleties of military aviation, the war of modern armies showed a slightly different role of aviation in combat operations than military science assumed, and this is no longer a war of aerobatics or invisibility, but a war of delivery vehicles for precision weapons from places invulnerable to strikes the enemy, as close as possible to the coverage area of ​​​​enemy air defense. At the same time, of course, preference is given to machines capable of taking on board as large and varied a load as possible for attack and defense. I think our military science has something to think about. And yes, we are certainly not talking about the "wall to wall" option, after which there will be nowhere to sit down.

      War now is largely intelligence. Space and sky.
      Spacecraft for various purposes, AWACS and RTR aircraft, UAVs of various types, including strategic reconnaissance UAVs.
      It is very bad with this in Russia - a significant lag in electronics, in a radiation-resistant element base, is affecting.
      Therefore, there are very few of our satellites in orbit. And they do not live long compared to their Western counterparts.

        Let's see what the potential enemy has: Raytheon GBU-53B Stormbreaker.
        1. 110 km on a fixed and 75 km on a moving target. That is, the aircraft does not need to enter the short-range air defense area.
        2. The bomb is cold and plastic. From metal, only striking elements in a warhead weighing 48 kg. There is no engine. A very difficult target for air defense.
        3. It flies by GPS, can be controlled by radio, has an IR sensor, millimeter-wave radar and a semi-active laser guidance system for an illuminated target, including a moving one.
        4. F-15E Strike Eagle can carry 28 (!!!) of these bombs.

    Now the planes are divided into several groups. Aircraft as a platform for launching high-precision long-range missiles such as F-15 or Su-34. Anti-aircraft aircraft F-35, Su-35, Su-57. And air defense planes.
    MiG-35 is an air defense aircraft. For these purposes, driving the Su-35 or Su-57 is wasteful.

    We are strained with strike aircraft! feel There are clearly not enough aircraft, it would probably not be bad to resume production of the MIG27 with unification according to the engine and where possible with the Su30/34/35. The car would be 34-2 times cheaper than the Su3 both in production and in maintenance, 300-500 pieces would not interfere at all fellow

    Mig is primarily an alternative for Su, and the lack of an order entails a lack of feedback on the real qualities of the alternative platform. I hope that the coming years will set priorities in such a way that there will be a place for healthy competition. When I read that "the military cannot decide how to save money and get better than a wide range of creatures," bewilderment arises - this is not a problem about the aircraft, but in the heads of the people's commissar of defense and the people's commissar of industry.

    At a time when there is not much money to scrape together, the UAC will need to decide what to spend it on: the Su75, which seems to be 50 years more modern, but it is only available from papier-mâché. Or Mig29 (crossed out) 35, which was developed 50 years ago and since then has changed (slightly) engines, weapons and radar. Good for fighting an enemy that does not have air defense and is armed with F4, F5, Mi24

      Firstly, it is quite realistic that there will come times in the near future when aircraft will be needed here and now and not offshore papers, and the MiG-35 is actually the same age as the Su-35, only more advanced technically.
