Uncertainties in the program T-50 PAKFA

Uncertainties in the program T-50 PAKFAThere is no shortage of doubts about the future of the program to create a fifth-generation Russian fighter T-50 PAKFA, writes AINonline 20 September. These problems are related to the readiness of the main subsystems of the aircraft, delays in the transfer of the aircraft into service, and plans to cover part of the R & D at the expense of the program’s partner, India.

The design bureau NIIP has traditionally been a supplier of radars for Su fighters and has developed a radar with active phased H050. “The results of the flight tests of the radar on board one of the four T-50 prototypes are very impressive,” says an analyst who is familiar with the program. However, the radar is a product of a boxed assembly. “At present, there is no production base for serial production of the H050 radar. Transmit-receive modules (APMs) are produced at the Istok military enterprise in a limited size, which makes the cost of the radar prohibitive, ”he says.

Also produced manually composite aircraft panel. Composites were developed for the Sukhoi aerobatic aircraft.

The engine of the fifth generation, which will be equipped with later versions of the T-50, still exist mainly on paper, experts say the engine industry in Russia. The prototypes are equipped with Saturn 117C engines, which are equipped with Su-35 fighters. The first production batches of the T-50 will be equipped with these engines.

It is highly doubtful that without making changes T-50 will have low unmasking signs. American experts who spoke with AINonline believe that in its current form, the aircraft in some aspects has an “exorbitantly high radar and infrared signature”.

Another factor is that the T-50 program will be cost-effective if India acquires at least 250 aircraft and also participates in R & D. But India plans to purchase only half of this amount. Sources in the Indian Ministry of Defense believe that India cannot afford to purchase T-50 and French Rafale fighter jets. If the situation becomes “either - or”, participation in the T-50 program can be canceled in favor of Rafale, since India seeks to avoid laying “all the eggs in one Russian basket”.

      Cuckoos do it this way ... I don’t think that Indians are so stupid as to abandon the promising new generation aviation complexes, in favor of today's systems, and not the most relevant IMHO ...

      There are no special "groans" in the article. But you must agree that an airplane is not only a glider, but also engines, which are not yet even in the drawings. So there is no plane yet. On old engines, it is still possible to test the airframe, individual flight modes, the behavior of composite parts, but not the "5-generation aircraft" itself. The main components of the radar are also piece work. For new technologies of the same airborne radar, it is necessary to design and manufacture new equipment, and for this it is necessary to at least roughly represent the volume of mass production. And for the manufacture of composite parts, new equipment is needed for mass production, which still needs to be designed and again manufactured. And who guarantees that the sample adopted in the series will contain exactly these details, and not something else? And for the design of technological equipment, it is necessary to know the volume of serial production.

        Yes, and for the manufacture of composite parts you need new equipment for serial production, which still needs to be designed and again made.
        This is called a snap, and yet for aluminum parts it is also needed in most cases. And everything you described is just a process of preparing and deploying production, all planes go through it, and what is the T50's exceptionalism in this matter, what bothers you?

        I heard that the elite of India are brahmanas and kshatriyas, who form the basis of the special services and the armed forces, those who are engaged in philosophy and ideology. And those who are sent to work in the West are "their own", in general, degenerates.

          The opposite is true. At least among computer scientists all who at least something of themselves are eager to move to the West at any cost. I had to work in a mixed team. You can still deal with those turkeys who are here, especially if they are already 5-6 years old. And those who stayed in India are an order of magnitude dumber, and do mostly black work like QA. As for the caste, I did not ask them, but it’s clear that they are not untouchables and, perhaps, they are not sudras, with surnames like Raj or Shah. And that only real man came to America even at school age, and he finished school and college already here.

        Oh, well, let's start with the fact that the self-propelled guns on the T-50 and Su-35 MKI are completely based on the system developed by the Indian side, which is based on a computer with an open architecture and a frequency of 1,5, which we purchase from them and put on these aircraft. this is for starters, and there are a lot of things from the Indians.

          The frequency of 1.5 (if, of course, you mean gigahertz, and not some other unit) was achieved by Intel (Pentium IV) and AMD (Athlon XP) 12 years ago, + - a little. If this is the last peep of Indian technology, one can imagine their level. It’s not just visible that their submarines are self-igniting, the gun barrels are tearing, and the planes fall.

      Sure. Therefore, all fortune telling is unproductive. But the plane will be held at 80% only when new engines are put on it. So in a few years, not earlier. And now, while it is possible to bring avionics, radar and prepare for them serial production. This electronics will go to other serial models.

      That is, the article is not objective. Therefore, we go on points, write objectively. There are no delays in the transfer of aircraft. There are no problems with the subsystems. The radar is mass-produced in sufficient quantities and it is cheap. Necessary composite panels are produced on production lines in any required quantities. 5th generation engines are mass-produced and all their problems have already been resolved.
      In its present form, the aircraft fully complies with the conditions of radar and infrared invisibility.
      The T-50 program will be cost-effective even if India refuses to finance R&D and the purchase of aircraft.
      Is everything objective now? Plus put it? Did not confuse God's gift with fried eggs?
      Hurray patriotism is when they write that one Ka-50 will easily stop the tank army, and the prototype T-50 will destroy any number of f-22s and disperse hundreds of f-35s just because we are pleased.

        Despite the temporary problems that are being successfully resolved, it is safe to say that even in its current form, our developments are superior in performance to the latest aircraft in service with America, the production and operation of which are constantly faced with critical difficulties. Undoubtedly, when according to the plan of testing our aircraft will end and it will be put into service, and as we all hope will happen in the near future, our aircraft will dominate the air for the next 20 years, and then even more advanced models will replace them.

            Maybe I don’t understand something, but it seemed to me that the assembly line is:

            Conveyor assembly, assembly of products with continuous or periodic movement thereof, carried out forcibly on the conveyor. Conveyor assembly also includes assembly of products installed on a special platform, platform or trolley, which move at the same speed continuously or with periodic stops.

            So - in the first and second photographs, except for the aircraft assembly workshop, I do not see any conveyor ...

    Yes, composites and avionics are the most problematic areas of the program. It is necessary to tighten the production base.
    As for India, I doubt that they will abandon the T-50. For all the respect for Rafal, he still has weapons not located in the internal compartments, but they want a full-fledged 5th generation fighter. Of course, they can get the T-50 no earlier than 2020 but the war doesn’t threaten them right now, so they can wait.

    T-50 program will be cost-effective if India acquires at least 250 aircraft, and will also participate in R&D

    This phrase just killed. Or is PAKFA an exclusively commercial program, the most important of which is "economic efficiency"?

      And this is the modern liquidity approach of the Russian authorities to the defense industry. They really want the military-industrial complex to first make a profit comparable to an oil pipe, and then, in their free time, riveted pieces of iron for their defense.

There were and will be problems, and not only with us, thank God we are solving them. Yes, we don’t have such opportunities at the moment to solve them in one fell swoop, but this does not mean that everything is radically root !. Something about their problems they are not crucifying, but in case of failure they simply unsubscribe - the program is closed due to unpromising ..)))

      I am greatly exaggerating, but if a dozen T-50s gobble up the annual defense budget of the Russian Federation with a social one in addition, then you will seriously think whether you need such a good one, even if it is head and shoulders above the F-35 and F-22 taken together. And the cost of the aircraft includes a breakdown of the cost of development and preparation for production for all production aircraft. The arithmetic is simple - the larger the series, the less each one costs. It is necessary that when purchasing a reasonable amount (not 1-2 pieces per year) it will be enough for other programs (well, like there are a lot of people here who think that the Navy needs new ships), then it will be "economic efficiency". Something like this.

    That is, the article is not objective. Therefore, we go on points, write objectively. There are no delays in the transfer of aircraft. There are no problems with the subsystems. The radar is mass-produced in sufficient quantities and it is cheap. Necessary composite panels are produced on production lines in any required quantities. 5th generation engines are mass-produced and all their problems have already been resolved.
    In its present form, the aircraft fully complies with the conditions of radar and infrared invisibility.
    The T-50 program will be cost-effective even if India refuses to finance R&D and the purchase of aircraft.
    Is everything objective now? Plus put it? Did not confuse God's gift with fried eggs?
    Hurray patriotism is when they write that one Ka-50 will easily stop the tank army, and the prototype T-50 will destroy any number of f-22s and disperse hundreds of f-35s just because we are pleased.

    are you normal Or do you all live in a fairy tale on the Chinese island of Chunga Chang ?? the work process is going on ... moreover, the process of creating a NEW technique, the analogues of which in the world can be counted on the fingers of one hand! and you want everything to be at once and without problems !!! there is a feeling that you, in addition to boltology, did nothing more in life ... the process of eliminating these problems is WORK !!!

    Honestly, I won’t be surprised if this is close to the truth. The defense industry, even in such an area as aviation, is greatly loosened (collapsed), in order to create such a complex unit as the engine of a fighter or radar of a modern, or even promising level, you need a good technological base and qualified personnel. And with this (especially with frames) a big problem.
