Radioelectronic Technologies Concern is developing equipment for Mi-28HM

17
At the very end of 2008, it was announced the start of work on the creation of a modernization project for the attack helicopter Mi-28H. In December last year, information appeared that the testing of the Mi-28HM machines should begin in the 2016 year. There is some general information about how to upgrade existing technology. Thus, the upgraded helicopter will receive a number of new electronic equipment. A few days ago, the ITAR-TASS news agency published a new information about a promising project. Givi Janjgava, deputy general director for research and development of the on-board equipment of the Radioelectronic Technologies Concern (KRET), told the agency’s journalists about the specifics of the new project.

Radioelectronic Technologies Concern is developing equipment for Mi-28HM


According to the specialist, after upgrading, the attack helicopter MI-28HM will receive a number of new systems, the so-called. electronic cockpit, as well as new high-precision weapons. Currently, the employees of KRET and related enterprises are carrying out a number of works on the creation of new systems in the framework of the Mi-28Н modernization project. KRET Deputy Director told that now the concern's specialists are engaged in a significant upgrade of computing equipment, visualization tools and navigation. In addition, the Kolomna Engineering Design Bureau (KBM) ordered the development of a new weapons with optical guidance system. Soon the first prototypes of the new systems should appear.

Mr. Janjgava did not disclose all the features of the new weapons, but noted that the new missile for the Mi-28HM will have several noticeable differences from the existing systems. It will receive an inertial navigation system that can launch a missile to a distance of 6-8 km from the launch point, as well as “good final guidance.” All this will reliably hit ground targets of various types.

The expert recalled that the Mi-28 project and the radio-electronic systems used in it were initially created taking into account the constant coordination of the actions of several helicopters. Now the Radioelectronic Technologies concern is developing an updated system for preparing flight missions for joint coordinated combat helicopter operations. Already, this system has the beginnings of embedding into the network-centric troop control system.

The general principle of such a system is simple: attack helicopters equipped with new communication and control equipment will be able to exchange various information not only with each other, but also from other combatants. Helicopters will be able to get information about the situation and target designation from aircraft, from command posts, satellites, etc. Mr. Janjgava compared such a system with the Internet and stressed that the combat work of an individual helicopter will be more effective if it can attack not only the targets that it “sees” itself, but also those that are detected by other helicopters.

New navigation, communications and control systems will display information on multi-functional LCD screens. The upgraded Mi-28H will receive a so-called. electronic or glass cabin. This means that the minimum possible number of mechanical indicators and control panels of a classic look will remain in the cockpit. Instead, they will use modern screens and control devices that simplify the assimilation of information and control systems.

Janjgava stressed that the principles used in the new booth would be close to the figurative display. In addition, the helicopter will be "full of intelligence", so that the on-board equipment will be able to take on some operations. The intelligent control system will collect information and analyze the situation, after which the pilot will be offered several solutions to the current problem. All these innovations are proposed to reduce the burden on pilots and simplify their work in difficult conditions.

The creators of the avionics complex for the new attack helicopter also intend to present a radio electronic warfare system. According to the deputy general director of KRET, such systems will be gradually added to the equipment. Their use will make the Mi-28HM helicopter a “real universal hunter”.

The deadlines for the completion of the current work on the development of electronic equipment for the attack helicopter Mi-28HM have already been determined. Concern Radioelectronic Technologies intends to complete all the work assigned to it over the next two to three years. By this time, new communication systems, control, data transmission, EW, etc. should be created and tested.

At the end of October last year, the commander of the 344th Center for Combat Training and Retraining of the Air Force aviation (Torzhok city) Colonel A. Popov said that the new Mi-28NM helicopter will seriously differ from the base Mi-28N, including externally. In addition to new airborne equipment and weapons, the upgraded helicopter will receive full dual control. A little later, in December 2013, A. Shibitov, Deputy General Director of Russian Helicopters Holding, said that tests of the upgraded version of the Mi-28N will begin in 2016.

        Far from new, but already proven and effective. Yes

          Yes, there are a lot of words, and the impression from the article as a whole is negative, not words about the results of fine-tuning the radar supra-sleeve antenna, however, in the light of the declaration of the development of a new optical guidance system, things are not in the best way (which is a pity, there are so many hopes). This is a long overdue measure. However, how necessary is a "glass cockpit" with its pluses and minuses for a combat helicopter?

            What the hell 19 aircraft? According to various sources, from 4 to 7 aircraft were lost, not more. Do not exaggerate, or add the source you are referring to. Hope this will not be Wikipedia :)

      why not about anything? modernization of weapon systems continues ... the "night hunter" is already considered one of the best attack helicopters in the world, just like the "alligator", and its modernization, which will further increase its power and efficiency, pleases .. it means that the understanding comes that everything with the army in Russia is an adult ... good news

    The strangest thing is that not H modifications are shown everywhere in the photo! I saw 28 N. in Zhukovsky Mi. It has a spherical radar above the screw hub! It was created as our answer to Apache longbow. It’s even interesting whether there is a night modification in the troops in general.

      You are mistaken, Dear. Mi 28 N even has its own name - Night Hunter. It was developed to "work" at night and in bad weather conditions. This is why a radar is installed on it. And the new modification will most likely simply have a "digital" cockpit and more wide range of weapons

    Isn’t it time for the comrades with KB Mil to already introduce a new attack helicopter, otherwise they will modify 28 for another 30 years and there will be little sense .... I’ll say right away the adherent (of the Kamov technique)

      Only in our army there was such a paradoxical situation that there are already two armed helicopters adopted. Mi 28 and Ka 50 (52). And these two machines will now be the basis of army aviation for a long time. Yes, and what's the point in developing a new combat helicopter? Did the Americans spend a lot grandmas on Comanche but in the end they considered it too complicated and expensive and did not take it into service.

    Yes, I’ve already seen it. No matter how I look and throw it off. soldier

    All this beautiful, wonderful, high-tech, innovative and so on. equipment arrives at the troops per hour on a teaspoon. But still the personnel must be trained. It is necessary for the government to solve the financing issue, otherwise we will be like Ukraine with ten helicopters, albeit the latest ones.

    Who knows, maybe a "hunter" can work on helicopters and drones?
    The infantry, as before, will need to carry a separate r / station for communication with aviation?

    Here I found an interesting article. "Assassins with a propeller: Night Hunter versus Alligator"Here (http://www.popmech.ru/made-in-russia/5846-ubiytsy-s-propellerom-nochnoy-okhotnik
    -protiv-alligatora /).
    Agree that few people have heard of the K-52 "Erdogan" model with a tandem (like the Mi-28) pilots? For general development, the article is very good for me. liked it.
    Sincerely. hi

    Well, now it seems clear why the 28s were ordered as much as the Ka 52 (according to the idea of ​​1 Alligator should lead a group of three Hunters), from here we can assume the total number of cars - ka 52 will be 140 from here Mi 28 should be idea of ​​420 units - not bad, not bad Yes
