MiG is developing a new interceptor

MiG Corporation is developing a new interceptor aircraft, which over time should replace the MiG-31, reports Rossiyskaya Gazeta With reference to the general director of the enterprise Sergey Korotkov.

MiG-31

“The MiG-31 is very much in demand for solving the tasks of our country's air defense. But their production stopped a long time ago, and the functions assigned to the MiG-31 still need to be carried out, ”said Korotkov.

He emphasized that “the new aviation the complex, which will be replaced by the legendary interceptor, will be created on the basis of modern principles of the military aircraft industry and from new materials. ”

“We understand what it will be like a plane. Work is already underway to determine its appearance, ”the manager noted, adding that the development is carried out at the expense of the budget. On the timing of the creation of a new car Korotkov said nothing.

Meanwhile, the press service of the corporation said that at present "in the interests of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, a large-scale program of upgrading existing MiG-31 to version MiG-31BM" is being implemented.

“The plane is beautiful. He stepped forward a few decades to create it. The upgraded MiG-31 meets all modern requirements, and we have no right to take it to the background. The plane will fly. Pilots love it. The plane is reliable and it solves its tasks, ”the press service said the words of the Commander-in-Chief of the All-Union Confederation Championship, Viktor Bondarev.

Recall that in September, 2015 r turned 40 years from the date of the first flight of the MiG-31.

Good luck, we have been waiting for something new from your corporation for a long time.

not a lot of time will pass from the idea to the model. as if by then a new interceptor would not have to be invented. although in the old days it always went around the competition for decades. Let me recall at least the instant 25 （RED FOX). We wish good luck and speedy success to aircraft designers

[_Vladislav_]

Well, yes, throwing a MiG would not be necessary. As soon as the choice was made in favor of Sukhoi (PAK FA), they forgot about MiG.
I believe that the MiG’s potential cannot be simply abandoned.
You can create some kind of fighter using the capabilities inherent in the MiG MFI. To refine, improve.

MiG needs to be competitive. MiG and Su - must compete, this will serve as a guarantee of progress.

[GDP]

Technologies have stepped forward a long time ago - new materials appeared - lighter and more durable, new ones - more powerful engines, new electronics, radars and suppression systems ...
Everyone knows about the shortcomings of 31 for a long time, but things are still there ...

PAK FA, (when the new engines are finalized) will be an excellent front-line fighter - but the interceptor is still something else. It was time, it was high time to start work on creating a new interceptor ...

[aktanir]

The article is tiny and about nothing. chatter about airplanes that we possibly yes, maybe no, see years through 10-15, or even later, since there is no specific information

[dyksi]

This is an excerpt from Sergei Korotkov's huge interview with Vedomosti, where the conversation was about everything, both the new and the old, prospects, etc. Financing for the creation of the interceptor is financed by the state, R&D is underway, the image of the interceptor of the future is already available, but this work is naturally not two three years. There is information that Russia in 2016 will supply abroad up to one hundred fighters, half of which should be MiGs. In the interview, there is a hint that heavy and light vehicles will be divided into niches as in Soviet times, heavy "Rusks" and light (medium) MiGars, and this is basically true, the budget is not bottomless, but a lot of aircraft are needed. Therefore, the MiG-35 (for our Aerospace Forces) will be delivered without AFAR, over the CLU containers, for the Su-35 and MiG-35 work seems to be going on, but it is said in passing. In short, the T-50 and a promising interceptor (MiG-41) should be heaped up, the state has no money to heap up all the other machines, so the 4 ++ generation will be cool, but more restrained (at least the interview leads to similar reflections, although it is armed new RVV and bombs arrive, this already greatly increases the capabilities of fighters, the same Su-35 with KS-170, I can be mistaken, will be a formidable bird, with its radar and combat radius). http://www.vedomosti.ru/business/characters/2015/12/22/621989-mi-obezopasilis-ka

MIG-35 were not going to buy for our VKS ... besides, MIG-35 is not an interceptor, but an average MFI.

No one said that moment 35 interceptor. It’s just that the first radar in Russia based on AFAR - ZHUK was developed precisely at the moment of 35.

[Voyager]

Weren’t you going? As far as I remember, they were not going to take the one that has been flying on the MAX for years, but if I understand everything correctly there are still some developments on another MiG-35, which they can order in the future. I repeat this is only rumors from third parties, I could be wrong.

Excuse me, but do you think that creating a new interceptor capable of accelerating to 5 max is so easy? It's just a hyper speed for a minute. And you still need a new radar, an arsenal and avionics ...

[GDP]

The fact of the matter is that the creation of new technology takes a long time. Therefore, it was necessary to start yesterday.
31 is already outdated, but there is nothing to replace it yet. And for Russia, this is an ideal aircraft - it allows you to control vast spaces, because we can’t cover the whole sky with 400 complexes, especially north and east, only 31 can do this task, and the materials, radar, engines and electronics on them - of the past centuries ...

I am poorly versed in this matter, but if it were possible to unify part of the nodes of the new interceptor with part of the developments for the PAK FA, then it would certainly reduce the development time and its cost ...

although of course there are significant differences, for example, stealth and maneuverability for the interceptor are not so important in my opinion, but the speed and range of detection and destruction of targets on the contrary are more relevant ....

[Lucy]

.... accelerating to 5 max is so easy ....
This is not possible for a serial interceptor!

[Warrior of Russia]

In technology, as a rule, the impossible becomes real! It is possible and will be so!

[doework]

Nobody "threw" the MIG. MIGs and SUs work in different niches .. just at once an impoverished and plundered country will not pull many high-class design bureaus and projects, if at all - it will pull something. Indeed, in the 90s and 2000s, nothing new has been drawn anywhere ... but now, as it turned out, we still need to do - the PAK FA, and ICBMs, and air defense, and tanks, and small arms, and the Navy, and The Arctic ... the Russian budget will not be enough for everyone!

[BLACK-SHARK-64]

DESTROY A COUPLE OF OLIGARCHS AND THERE ARE YOU FINANCE DEFENSE ...

[pilot bin-bom]

I agree. Once, in between working with the Lytkarinsky "Saturn" on the engine for the SU-27, I visited the "Red October". There was one interesting topic on the actuated seals of the gas turbine engine for the MIG. Unfortunately, it didn’t grow together - not because the Belarusians could not do it, but because of others. including political reasons - then they just began to divide the empire.

[Butchcassidy]

I do not agree that they are competitors, rather different classes: Su - heavy, MiG - light. And each of them is in demand, each has its own target niche and customers.

The same Su for many countries is redundant and too expensive, and a lighter modern MiG could fully satisfy both domestic demand and export.

Quote: ButchCassidy

In demand where?
From the MiG office, the country buys only MiG-29K in a small batch for the fleet, and that's it. The modernization of the MiG-31 somehow supports this office. And the 35th version of the MiG-29 MO did not inspire. Foreign "partners" are also refusing to purchase these fighters. So the MiG is slowly bending over. Perhaps, indeed, the new interceptor will be in demand and will support the Migovites for the long term. We will see.

[Thronekeeper]

1.44 is LL. Not far away from the Chinese simulators of the 5 generation.

The problem is that the MiG-31BM, like the MiG-25 and m / f before it, is an immortal and irreplaceable machine.

Who will find an inconspicuous insect flying over the flowers with "Hellfires" of the "Predator" class, KR, F-22/35 will find it at an unattainable range and knock down the "long arm" P-37? At the same time, from 200 km, the direct-flow X-31PD will crash any Patriot or Hetz radar, and with the aeroballistic X-15P - from 300, and the 15A will sink the boat. And onyx is also being developed. And new electronic warfare systems.
While there will be "large-format" missiles - even like the X-31 missiles, you cannot hide them in any compartment of the "five", and for a long time they will share the sky with 4 ++ with the power of a thief, a radar station, etc. avionics, and a REP against stealth.
The MiG, by the way, had a hyper and stealthy interceptor-bomber-contra-aircraft carrier. Under "Yakhonts", but now more powerful, distant and compact "Zircons" can be replaced (in greater number). The article is good.
Recon appearance:

[shonsu]

function pack differs fundamentally from mig-31. it is an excellent combat vehicle, the potential of which, due to the high secrecy of the vehicle, was never demonstrated in hostilities. I tried for a very long time to get his LTH in open sources, all I could find was that his speed exceeds 3700 km / h, and the dynamic ceiling is 46km. it's already somewhere on the border with hypersound! no serial aircraft have such parameters.

[Lucy]

shonsu (2)
I confirm! Yesterday, in the flight canteen, he dined at the same table with Seryoga Bogdan. He wrote me the same numbers on a napkin. He just indicated that 3700km / h is Vpro., And the ceiling is static! So for all 50 000m. flies out!
And they say that in the FAP they will register the order of flights on the PVP, so as to safely diverge from the satellites!

[Sibiriya]

worth listening to and seeing

[Dilshat]

Who would argue! Throwing such a unique aircraft would be great stupidity! It became the record holder in the number of world records set (29), of which 3 - absolute. According to aviation experts, military scientists and experts, the MiG-31 aircraft, having huge modernization potential , is the most promising for considering it as a base when solving the problems of aerospace defense, strategic reconnaissance, long-range strike aircraft, an operational means of launching small satellites of various sizes into low Earth orbits of destination, and so on. d. This is confirmed by numerous works 2-th CRI Defense of the Russian Federation, the Russian Defense Ministry and the Higher Scientific Research Institute of civilian agencies.

Exactly. It seems to me that the MiG has been undeservedly pushed back from the 90s. Its niche is tightly occupied by Su, although it is a heavy fighter. Maybe at least "lucky" with the interceptor. Good luck to the migrants.

[dyksi]

Everything is returning little by little, they have already begun to understand this at the top, they want to appoint Sergey Korotkov the chief general designer of the KLA (he is a decent person and knows how to organize work on creating fighters without burdening or taking off his last pants from the state), although they say that he can combine posts, but He does not want to leave the RSK MiG, he rests, but here the last word is over the leadership.

About the development of the new interceptor
(MIG-41) I wrote for a long time ... mattresses have been ringing about him for two years already .. even voiced high-speed TTX -4,5-5 swings.

[luiswoo]

Mach 5 is 6125 kmph. When the time limit was exceeded, the "flashlight" of the Mig-25 melted at a speed two times lower than this. Titanium T-4 100 and Lockheed SR-71 (which is funny, also from Soviet titanium) are shamelessly expensive. Actually, for this "MiG-41" will it be necessary to sprinkle its weight with platinum, or will there be enough gold? :)

Russia is now able to produce the best heat-resistant materials in the world ... and if not us, but the mattresses already say that the MIG Design Bureau is developing a new interceptor with such high-speed performance characteristics, then there is no smoke without fire ... information on the new interceptor in there is little Internet, but at the same time, our representatives also admitted that such work and speed characteristics are being carried out right up to 5 swaps ... delve into the internet and study this issue.

[Denis Obukhov]

a compromise has already been found, the new T-50 drying takes a position between the two.

A fighter-interceptor is apparently needed, due to the specificity and vastness of Russian open spaces.

Like that silent dancer in a disco: let them dance, and we will show ourselves in ...... business.

There was a closed session of the State Duma, where the issue of resuming the release of these twigs was considered. It said that today the production technology of even glass for flashlights has been lost. At such speeds, they simply melt. Well, they decided not to renew, but to build a new one. But not now.

This is one of the options (created at the end of the Union), a machine weighing seventy tons, large and heavy, but new dvigla are needed to create it, and this is very difficult and expensive nowadays. Although everything is possible.

The layout of the engines for the fighter is not viable. With active maneuvering in the vertical plane, shading of the air intakes occurs with the ensuing consequences.

I think so too. T-50, although a bit slower, will completely replace the Mig-31. They scrapped money on the T-50, with a scratch, only 12 pieces were ordered instead of 52! So, if the money appears it’s better to order more T-50 than to breed a zoo.

This is all understandable, but in our time of huge prices for military products, unification is inevitable. In addition, apparently, the military will no longer have such large budgets. Therefore, you have to sacrifice something. And thinking. that you will have to sacrifice exactly "niche" expensive cars.

[NEXUS]

Quote: clidon

And thinking. that you will have to sacrifice exactly "niche" expensive cars.

You don’t have to ... each complex has its own niche and its own post ... and MIG-31, despite the modernization and the fact that it’s a wonderful interceptor, needs to be prepared for a replacement, in the light of new threats and a change in the face of the war itself ... so, the development of a new interceptor is absolutely justified and logical.

[clidon]

Well, this can be repeated unconscious, but highly specialized machines are dying. The development of such a machine (if it is modern, and not just a remake of the 4 generation with a new radar and an upgraded engine and even based on the remaining cases) is comparable in cost to the long-suffering T-50. If this will actually be a new interceptor, then the question of financing (you do not forget - the Russian Air Force is already far from the USSR Air Force in number) not only programs and production, but also operation (which is also very important) will arise quickly. And who will be infringed on - the universal T-50? Maybe the project is a promising light car? Or PAK YES? I don’t think so.
Initially, the plans are simply pushed forward, but the bells will start ringing when the MiG-31 units are replaced by "conventional" fighters, albeit adapted for air defense missions.

It's not for nothing that I told you about the new threats and the new look of the war ... why did you think that the new interceptor will be highly specialized? And then, at the moment, the same MIG-31 has little work and tasks?

And no one has yet canceled the concept of the fighter pair ... and the MIG design bureau is working on 5 generation LPIs, raising the development of the MIG-1.44, taking into account developments on the PAK FA ... After all, why is the T-50 so hard for us? Because in fact, we have the first platform of the new generation ... a lot of mistakes, a lot of search and solutions ... PAK FA is the first-born, whose works and solutions will then be built by both LFI and PAK DA and PAK TA and the same MIG-41.
In addition, it is necessary to take into account the fact that 70% of sales of the entire fighter component falls on the LFI ...

Quote: clidon

This will not happen for the simple reason that the "Caspian salute" showed the whole world the effectiveness of the CD ... and now all the players are working hard to create their own "Caliber" and "Tamaghawks", which means that we need to work on interception systems for such missiles (which will become hyper sonic in the near future) ... therefore, the performance characteristics of the new interceptor of ours are precisely such Mach 4,5-5 ...

[clidon]

It's not for nothing that I told you about the new threats and the new look of the war ... why did you think that the new interceptor will be highly specialized?

The concept of a heavy, ultra-high-speed interceptor in modern conditions is a narrow niche. Large mass means low maneuverability; high speed means greater visibility. At least because of the heating and design features of the "stealth technology." As a result, we get what we got earlier in Mig-31, but at a new level. Actually, this is not denied.

And then, at the moment, does the same MIG-31 have little work and tasks?

Yes, the same remained.

But no one has yet canceled the concept of the fighter pair ... and the MIG design bureau is working on 5 generation LFIs, having raised the development of the MIG-1.44, taking into account developments on the PAK FA ...

So I say that in this “trinity” - root it is a heavy universal fighter for gaining air superiority. They will do it at any cost and find the money. The smaller brother, the LFI, is next in line - his fate is much more vague and that as a result, it turns out so far it is impossible to assume even nearby (no matter how the next reincarnation of Mig-29). Moreover, that makes it OKB Mig, which itself is not in the best position, even AFAR still can not work.
But the weakest link of the fighter "troika" is a heavy fighter, from which they will start saving ...
As for the PAK FA, on the basis of which the rest of the cars will be made, here we can recall the F-22 and F-35. The second is based on the first. Did it greatly reduce the cost and speed up the process? This is despite the fact that they are made by one office, and Mig is not Su.

In addition, it is necessary to take into account the fact that 70% of sales of the entire fighter component falls on the LFI ...

Have we sold a lot of LFI over the last 25 years?

This will not happen for the simple reason that the "Caspian salute" showed the whole world the effectiveness of the CD ...

KR were massively used for 25 years before the "Caspian salute", and adopted even earlier. And how many heavy fighters do you see now in service with the countries of the world? Besides, do you really think that with the mass appearance of high-speed 100-120 high-speed fighter missiles, they will solve the problem?

[xtur]

> The very concept of a heavy super-high-speed interceptor in modern conditions is a narrow niche.

it feels like you live somewhere very far from Russia ... say, on Jupiter. the narrow niche of Russia with its many thousands and unequipped Arctic coasts will contain a whole air fleet of even the largest country.

> from and I say that in this "trinity" - the root is a heavy universal fighter of gaining air superiority.

the MiG-31 embodied much of what was then applied in the fifth generation - advanced communication systems, over-the-air supersonic sound.
So in Russian conditions, interceptors get the qualities of the prototype / model of the next generation fighter.

This is an invaluable experience in clarifying some of the requirements for the next generation of technology.

[clidon]

It feels like you live somewhere very far from Russia ...

It seems that you are not aware of the number of air forces that Russia can put on its many thousands of kilometers. Are 100-140 machines actually saving us?
The future of air defense in focal defense. The more intelligent the weapon, the easier it will be to penetrate over stretches of thousands of kilometers.

the MiG-31 embodied much of what was then applied in the fifth generation - advanced communication systems, over-the-air supersonic sound.

Do you propose building a prototype of a future car in hundreds? )))
The afterburner supersonic Mig-31 absolutely does not help the T-50 engines in any way. Well, communications can be implemented immediately on target machines.

One problem, as voiced at MAX, T-50, on super sound, can fly, minutes 40! And MIG 31, as long as there is kerosene in the tanks, and even without afterburner, at a climb, can go over to the top of the sound! These are the pies, interesting!

[Lucy]

SILENCE!
And why fly 40 minutes afterburner? And how many tons of kerosene burns in 40 minutes of Mig-31? And in how many minutes does the MiG-31 burn kerosene in excess of sound to reach the nearest airfield from the line of interception at the MG?
Do you know the term specific fuel consumption for certain engine operating modes for a specific flight profile (interception)?

[Engineer]

A plane without an engine will not fly, but I have not heard about the new engine. Because the prospects for the aircraft are very distant. And if he gets the same 117 that the T-50 will have, then he will already lose the Mig-31 in high-speed characteristics.

I read about a year ago, m / v Bonadrev said that MiG would begin to create a new interceptor. I look forward to some MiG-41))) But as mentioned in the comments above, it will take a long time to wait.

Because the MiG is a legend. From the MiG-15 to the MiG-31. One machine cannot be distinguished: they are all legendary.

We’ll wait and see what they’ll finish there. And, by the way, the Mig-31 does not stagger at supersonic speeds at low altitudes, and everyone else begins to have a chatter, even the T-50

I am very happy for the MIG. We look forward to the new plane.

[seti]

Of course, I would like the long-suffering MiG-35 to go into production. For me, the Su family cars are wonderful and probably the best in their class, but we must not forget that all these Su-30, Su-35 and PAK FA (T 50) belong to heavy fighters, which means that they are much more expensive than the light class which owns the MiG-35. The latter would be very much in demand as has been written more than once. And the need for such a machine is huge.
Well, upgrading the MiG-31 is definitely necessary but do not forget about the future. All the same, the MiG-31 glider is already obsolete in the compartment of new materials and technologies.

[luiswoo]

A heavier vehicle has a more powerful radar, more long-range missiles, a longer flight range (speculatively). As a result, most likely it will turn out, it doesn’t matter that a lightweight car is cheaper - a heavier one will get it from a greater distance. And more will hardly help. Unless, of course, the difference in quantity is not an order of magnitude.

New is good, but old should not be forgotten either. What was wrong specifically with the MiG-31M (pure M-ka)? He in due time, and even now will give anyone a head start. And avionics and weapons, other equipment. By the way, the current 31BM is a light version of the M-ki. However, for the sake of especially squeamish Western "partners" they were not allowed into the series, although they passed the state tests. Sechas 6 pieces of this wonderful device are slowly rotting away. It's a shame !!!

[luiswoo]

Engine at least. The MiG-1.44 has afterburning over-sound, long range and flight time. If you do not dig at the maximum speed that the MiG-31 can develop only for a short time, then the T-50 surpasses it. With an engine of the second stage, it will probably surpass it too. Although it makes sense, rockets are faster ...

[novobranets]

Recall that in September, 2015 r turned 40 years from the date of the first flight of the MiG-31.

A fighter is a term for a fighter. Takes pride in the Soviet aircraft designers, to put such potential for modernization in the car, this is not a joke.

Upgraded MiG 31 Lost in speed, but gained in patrol. But still, the fastest pepelats in the world at the moment. His ancestor MiG sent the twenty-fifth to the landfill of the well-deserved Thrush. In capable hands, this is the king of the sky.

[NDR-791]

MiG-31 is still flying! After the "thrush" with its three "MAXs" which the MiG-25 ordered to live for a long time, the 31st is not bad even now, it's another matter that they were not "how much money was enough", but enough to guarantee the breakdown of the "massive second wave of bombers" ... And at the expense of the new, of course it is necessary to do so. I would like to see him even in 10 years. And I still don’t want to do the same with the "Armats" - we ordered twelve, we were able to collect six for the parade, and we will do the rest for mobilization under bombs. I was taught as a child - in modern warfare there is no home front !!! With all that it implies ...

[Mountain shooter]

I always believed that the 31 is the ultimate in flight performance. At its speeds, the materials do not withstand heat. Well, where is better? I think the problem is the loss of manufacturing technology. It is necessary either to restore the old one, or to develop a new one, plus new engines, a new avionics, weapons in the internal compartments (otherwise it’s also heated, poor).
It will be a very cool aircraft, and I think it’s not much delayed with the development. Times are not the same.

[Zaurbek]

It is necessary to take the T-50 units and engines, and make the aircraft at the desired range. The interceptor will not be large-scale, the economy must be taken into account. I see a double version of the T-50 with an increased range and the correction for the power of the engines of the shopping mall mass will increase.

[Leprekon]

Does it all come down to money and opportunities? Soviet reality always strikes me. Half-naked, half-starved, in a ruined civilian, and then WWII, people were able to implement the ambitious plans of the five-year plans, GOERLO, restore or relocate to the East thousands of factories, factories and mines! What have you lost, what have you unlearned, what is needed to restore former glory?
Let's hope more people who believe in the power of the people. Moscow, too, was not immediately built and restored!

Technologies have stepped forward a long time ago - new materials appeared - lighter and more durable, new ones - more powerful engines, new electronics, radars and suppression systems ...
Everyone knows about the shortcomings of 31 for a long time, but things are still there ...

PAK FA, (when the new engines are finalized) will be an excellent front-line fighter - but the interceptor is still something else. It was time, it was high time to start work on creating a new interceptor ...

What are the disadvantages of the 25/31 complex? there are simply NO analogs in the world to this complex, yes, it is expensive to maintain and manufacture, increased requirements for the level of the pilot, but all this pays off with its "performance" after the appearance (in my opinion in Anadyr?) of these machines, the SR 71 flights completely stopped (and it says a lot) ... I do not argue with this to modernize, but to write off such a successful (LA) in my opinion is not correct?

[BABAY22]

Light fighter, heavy fighter. Mig, soo. Generation 4 +, 4 ++, 5-.
New long-range interceptor.
Somehow all too much, do not you think?
Meanwhile, our overseas friends, whose competence in the field of aircraft construction is not called into question by anyone, are passing to the 6 generation. Those. heavy UAV.
My opinion is that when designing a long-range interceptor, with the prospect of delivering to the troops through 15-20 for years, you need to consider who he will meet in the sky with, and does he need a pilot aboard this interceptor?
Of course, I do not consider myself smarter than the analysts from the General Staff, but then I would not have to regret the time and money spent on creating a "very good" aircraft, which is already morally obsolete at the design stage.
Well, not with the Papuans, we are getting ready to fight.

[BABAY22]

Or maybe the long-range interceptor is an analogue of the A-380 with a mushroom on top and with a hundred ultra-long-range missiles?

[Yak28]

We have already spent time and money on the Su-47 "Berkut", MiG 1.42. And the PAK FA has every chance to join them. Do not stupidly copy the supposedly invisible F-22, you need something radically new. Good mind was enough in due time F-117 "Stealth" do not copy

[BABAY22]

And what is "radically new"?
Tu-4 (B-29), Buran (Shuttle), T-50 (f-22), P-7 (Fau-2), Su-27 (f-15).
We are always a couple of steps behind. We create either a direct analogue according to their drawings (Tu-4), or something as opposed to the created one (Su-27). In all fairness, our "copies" and "responses" often surpass their "originals".
They go their own way creating Concords, f-117, f-35 invisibles. They make mistakes, go along dead-end branches of development. Work, in short.
And we are sitting and waiting. Where to go. What would it be like to copy, so as not to make a mistake, so that it would not be a dead end branch.
All. Negative.

[Yak28]

At one time, the Soviet Union went great ahead in creating ballistic missiles, medium and short range, and so we really copied a lot of things, and our new strategic bomber will probably look like the B-2 Spirit? and this is a dead end in development

[Voyager]

Why not for the first few years start the production of new MiG-31 with a completely new filling, new approaches and solutions, materials. As planned with the Tu-160. A terrific car could have worked out.

[pavelty]

Well, gentlemen, commentators, everyone knows everything about everything ... And how the MiG was destroyed, and what Poghosyan, and about the competition with Sukhoi, well done. I, as a person working in the industry, will tell you that everything is fine, the MiG Corporation, Sukhoi, and Irkut, factories in Irkutsk, Novosibirsk, and KNM work, someone Lukhovitsy recalled (not so bad). There are export contracts, contracts with the RF Ministry of Defense too ... no panic - the nineties are over.

[Dinosaur1957]

I look: no one has a question about whether the "general public", including the "over the hill", needs to know about our movements in any of the areas of the defense industry. In this area, the slogan "No publicity - no prosperity" does not work. Even on paper, the first lines of the drawing did not lie, let alone an enthusiastic squeal, starting from the very top and up to ordinary inhabitants ...
Let me remind you, not at all out of a desire to gloat: those who drool over the PAK FA do not want to notice the obvious, namely the fact that the aircraft with the T-50 index are just PROTOTYPES. As it is clear from the same omniscient media, and the bashful confessions of the military, this aircraft, apart from the glider and the aerobatic complex (not aiming and navigation), has nothing that would make it a "typical representative" of the fifth generation. But any "" considers it his duty to join the opinion of the chatterbox Rogozin that this aircraft "has no analogues." Take it easy! And remember that the Americans learned about the SU-27 prototype only after the first flights, when it was impossible to hide it from technical reconnaissance.
And extreme: I do not want to be a Vanga, but about the same "fiftieth" I recalled an episode from the movie "The Last Flight of the Albatross." degree authoritative in aviation Erns Udet said: “... the fact that he cannot fly is not a problem. I believe it will learn. But he doesn't know how to shoot. And he won’t learn. ”By the way, he was right about the albatross - he never really became a combat aircraft
