“Aviation equipment” will develop launch systems for high-precision missiles for promising Russian aviation by 2016
“The uniqueness of the new launcher lies in the fact that it is being created for new aviation weapons of destruction (TSA) that will appear in Russia in the coming years. To ensure the technical compatibility of the devices, the design work will be carried out jointly with the developers of promising airplanes and helicopters, ”said Maxim Kuzyuk, general director of Aviation Equipment Holding. “By order of the Defense Ministry, Start will conduct a full cycle of research and development work: from the elaboration of a draft design and the creation of working design documentation to the manufacture of a batch of prototypes and tests before adopting the MAPM for service.”
“A direct contract with the Ministry of Defense to create a new MAPU and launch it into mass production will increase the company's order book after 2016,” said Alexander Litvinov, deputy general director and head of promising projects for Aviation Equipment Holding. - Start design services have already begun to implement the project. The priority task is to carry out the entire range of work in a short time and prepare production for the mass production of innovative products. Now, within the framework of the federal target program for the development of the military-industrial complex, in the period from 2011 to 2020, the enterprise is being technically re-equipped. ”
"Start" has extensive experience in the creation of equipment for aviation missiles. So, in previous years, the company has developed a multi-position ejection device (MKU), as well as an aviation ejection device (AKU). The MKU is in serial production and is designed to transport and launch heavy long-range missiles directly from the aircraft fuselage. This device, depending on the modification, is used on strategic aviation aircraft. The main difference between the MAPU and the ISU is the placement on other types of airplanes outside, and not inside the fuselage.
