[Mountain shooter]

Oh, how scary. Oh, I'm afraid, I'm afraid.

[Zomanus]

And the convertiplanes are very actively used by the Americans. And how many we had stingy comments about them on the site.

And how many we had stingy comments about them on the site.

They use it, because money is invested, but there is nothing more traveling so far. We also used the Yak-38 as needed, although the car was damp and frankly unsuccessful. But we could not finish the Yak-141, although the Americans built the same F-35B taking into account our developments in the 141.

Use as money invested

but I like Osprey, and in the north on a civilian, it seems to me, it could be used.

[Kassandra]

the first successful western tiltrotor was the Canadian CL-84, and in very distant shaggy years ...

[Vasek]

and I like Osprey

Controversial topic ...
However, the Americans are the only ones who were able to lift them into the "big" sky.
As, however, we are with ekranoplans.
(Also a controversial topic).

[Kassandra]

taken from the Canadians ... the company went bankrupt.

[voyaka uh]

Osprey had a long history of accidents, debugging and rework.
But it is over. Now there are no more accidents than ordinary
helicopters.
Israel bought these tiltrotor planes, will soon be put into service.

Refused in favor of additional F-35s.

[Kassandra]

why not received? Yak-141 flew on Farnborough, before that in Paris ... the F-35 copied from it, still not.

The Yak-38 was successfully used in Afghanistan, like the Harriers later, it carried little, but it flew to support the infantry on request before anyone else. see operation "Rhombus",

first non-combat in the 1960s with 1123pr. used Yak-36 from which the Americans first rushed to wash overboard when he hovered over them in the Mediterranean.

[Bayonet]

first non-combat in the 1960s with 1123pr. used Yak-36 from which the Americans first rushed to wash overboard when he hovered over them in the Mediterranean

When did they manage to scare the Americans so? Four prototypes of the Yak-36 were built. One, with tail number 36, was intended for strength tests, on the second machine, with number 37, take-offs and landings were worked out, including in free-hanging mode (82 hangings were completed in two years). This instance of the plane crashed: due to a large slip during landing, the landing gear broke. On the third machine (number 38), the effectiveness of improvements to the jet rudders, autopilot, and rearranged controls in the cockpit was checked. On July 27, 1964, test pilot V. G. Mukhin made his first flight, but with take-off and run, since it was not known how the aircraft would behave in the air. After that, all three cars were finalized by installing two dorsal fins on them. But still, to carry out vertical take-off, it took almost another year and a half of painstaking work. And only on March 24, 1966, a flight took place in a circle with vertical take-off and landing, and this date became the birthday of the domestic SSVVP.
In July 1967, at an air parade in Domodedovo, thousands of people saw a plane with unique properties. On pylons under the wing, viewers could watch the suspended blocks of the NAR UB-16. But it was a fake weapon because the weak point of the aircraft remained low payload. The meager payload of this VTOL aircraft made it hopeless, and soon the design bureau began to develop a Yak-36M combat aircraft, which received the designation Yak-38 after being adopted.

[Kassandra]

it was written - in the 1960s,
at least 6 cars were released, at least 4 pieces flew from the ships, replacing each other.
fake weapons were because no one flies into the parades with the present.
stock of thrust-weight ratio Yak-36 300kg.
according to other sources, the Yak flew in early 1963 or the second half of 1962.
it was generally the fattest peaceful trolling from the USSR - after flying in the Mediterranean, the Americans ran to steal the harrier from the British, and changes were made to naval law with the prohibition of hovering over foreign decks.
because they had much more fear than from the Black Sea "bulk".
when a non-helicopter comes up, loses speed and hangs over you like that, it’s not good!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MB9JDBe4wA
maybe ... generally a UFO?

he flew over them until the parade of course

The first tethered hover flight took place on January 9, 1963. There were initial problems with hot gas re-ingestion where hot exhaust gasses are sucked back into the intakes causing poor airflow through the engines and loss of thrust. The suction effect of the exhaust on the ground (which made a higher engine power needed) and problems with control system caused further difficulties. After modifications, the first untethered vertical flight was made on June 23, 1963, followed by the first full transition to horizontal flight on September 16, 1963

Yak-38 was successfully used in Afghanistan

Despite the fact that the official publications say that the tests were successful, however, test pilots noted that in the conditions of mountainous and desert terrain the use of this ship plane was ineffective. So the combat load was only two 250-kg bombs, there was only enough fuel for 40 minutes of flight. Therefore, talk about the effective use of the Yak-38 in Afghanistan is not necessary.

well, at least the people who served in the north called him "dove of peace"

[Kassandra]

the people who served in Afghanistan were delighted with him, because due to his high speed and advanced base, he, upon request, found himself in the right square twice as fast as a helicopter and three times as fast as Su and MiGs

need to explain that an extra minimum 7 minutes of battle without air support mean?

do not repeat in whole paragraphs for the demise, where did the copy-paste come from?

The Yak-36 was sometimes called the "dove of peace" because of its tricks in the Mediterranean.

In April 1980, four Yak-38s were sent for testing purposes to Afghanistan, where they operated for four months (Rhombus group) from limited sites in high altitude conditions. One plane was lost for non-combat reasons.

In general, the project was unsuccessful, the interest of military sailors in the Yak-38 was short-lived. The aircraft had a poor thrust-to-weight ratio, in low latitudes at high temperatures and humidity, it often had problems with take-off and had an extremely small radius of action. The Yak-38 quickly became the leader of Soviet aviation in the number of accidents, although there were not so many victims thanks to the automatic ejection system. By the end of 1989, the production of the Yak-38 was discontinued, they were relocated to ground airfields, and then withdrawn from the armed forces.
As for the "high speed" - 1100 km / h at altitude and 1210 at sea level, nothing outstanding.

[Kassandra]

interest waned with the advent of the Yak-41 in 1979

the aircraft possessed much greater thrust-weight ratio than Harrier
Is Harrier a bad project?

infantry (not marine) in Afghanistan, this attack aircraft liked and saved many lives - this is a failure, right?
he had no more accidents than Harrier or, especially, F-104

the Su-25 has what speed? and where did he have to fly to the battlefield? what Mi-24?

read the comment which one more than strange line and two copy-paste, read at all?

Afghan is not suitable for me by age, so only the Internet remains, I found people who just left Afghanistan in the service (BTA an-12),
I personally heard the "dove of peace" when I was reading the Murzilka magazine myself,

waiting for your sources

[Kassandra]

"dove of peace" I personally heard about the Yak-36,

in the corner of the sky, aviators usually write, and not those whom Yaki supported below,
other more sane articles about Yak are on the same site.
I will not specifically search for sources, there are a lot of the same Yakovlevsky (precisely them) videos on YouTube.

you can simply calculate how many times it’s faster than the battlefield from the maximum speed of the Mi-24 and Yak, and think how important it is for the infantry below.

the speed of the Yak is also higher than the speed of the Su-25 and fly it many times closer. therefore, he managed much earlier than helicopters, and especially base, even supersonic aviation.
they usually worked from ultra-short front lines, sometimes from platforms mounted directly on car trailers.

The harrier was originally made for the same (England then had conventional aircraft carriers).

, and then send me to them by simply indiscriminately expressing your opinion using the LTX of the aircraft and applying it hypothetically to a specific situation.

OK good luck

[Kassandra]

Okay, when I write.

Was the participation of the Yak, Sushki and Mi-24 in the Afghan war somehow hypothetical?

about yak, not all videos were shot by demshiza.

and advanced basing about

he was based at the same airfield as the su-17 and flew only with them

[Kassandra]

this is the first ...
they were based on a helicopter radius or even closer

sense to accompany his Su-17?

[Kassandra]

PS. the same "ship's plane" there was a harrier who was also used (and maybe still used) in Afghanistan.
The USSR had more than 38 "shipborne" Yak-200s - so many four TAVKRs would not fit.

harrier is more balanced in this regard, both in terms of equipment and load,

details interest ...

did the British have this? Harrier in the version of the attack aircraft officially belonged to the RAF.
and practically to them ...

And what does this have to do with convertiplanes?

[Kassandra]

but why are you asking?

someone inkass_98 allowed himself to write something bad about Soviet VTOL aircraft, the answer was to him.

convertiplanes easier ...

In scrap metal, the technique from the article will look much prettier.

[Sasha75]

It’s better to let them out, know the enemy’s technique and how to eliminate weaknesses when shooting from various weapons using trophy weapons armor thicknesses are real tactics, technical specifications, and not declared type of aiming range and ammunition range this one and the same often happens at a potential enemy. The size of the platoon was its armament, and in fact such things were taught in the 60s, even in schools, I flipped through the initial military training of that time, even how many mark pistols were painted, and so on, that’s more interesting, and I saw enough of the window dressing under Gorbachev too, so let's go down from earth to earth about the urgent.

From this panorama of photographs, I realized that this "scrap metal" will soon go into service with the militia. Why, the Earth is round ...
