The fighter-interceptor "Harpoon"

Airplane "Harpoon", designed in 2005 as part of the graduation project Artem Georgievicha Arutyunov.
 

Airplane "Harpoon" was created as a project of supersonic Far loitering Interceptor "SDBP to replace the fighter-interceptor MiG-31 and is designed to intercept strategic bombers, B-1B and cruise missiles, long range.

On the basis of the problem and modern aircraft design conditions "Harpoon" were formulated following the tactical and technical requirements (TTT).

Greater length of the northern borders of the Russian Federation and the branched network of airfields require the aircraft long stay in the air at great distances from the airport home.

The need to create a continuous information field, in groups of a small aircraft, which controls the extended northern boundary, determines the presence on board each aircraft, a powerful set of on-board radar equipment.

The concept of the U.S. Air Force F-22: "The first I saw is the first shot down," determines the need for a whole range of measures to reduce radar visibility plane

Requirements for the interception of aircraft and cruise missiles of the enemy on distant frontiers of Defense defines a powerful set of aircraft armament, which is based on ultra-range missiles.

For timely release of long lines of interception, the mode of combat duty on the ground, there should be a supersonic cruising speed.

Overview

BI is designed to defeat critical air targets: AWACS aircraft, air command and control centers, aircraft of the first persons.

Airframe

 UAV is made ​​on a "flying wing" with the possibility of deviation of the airframe for the transformation in LA with a V -shaped fins. Glider has a round shape with a central bulge in the form of an ellipse. Sheathing airframe is made ​​of composite materials, the power set - made ​​from aluminum alloys.

 Glider consists of nine types of compartments: the central, payload bay, bay chassis, the leading edge, fuel compartment, turning bays, bays rotation rulevnonov and the trailing edge.

 The central compartment consists of three parts, each of which are joined by flanged seam bolts. The front part is used for placement of the nose landing gear, radar and track the camera. Also has four air inlet. Power set of the front part consists of two regular and two longitudinal walls of power, two power and three normal frames, two transverse walls. Also, there are two beams, which act as beams. The engine is located in the central part and is fixed in position to force the two frames.To facilitate the installation of the engine there are six rollers mounted on the longitudinal girder. To service the motor in the casing of the central part of the service are manholes. The rear part is used for placement of the nozzle apparatus.

 The main task payload bay - accommodation SD BB P-77. Each compartment is located on two of these missiles, suspended on pantograph. In front of the right compartment is placed a device for refilling the type of "tube-cone, becausein the Russian Air Force used this very system. For ease of refueling close to this unit installed a video camera. In the left compartment instead of the device is set for refueling equipment for satellite communications. The central part consists of upper and lower compartments. At the bottom of the combat load is placed over it - the fuel. The power circuit consists of five power frames, four power ribs, the two beams and several longitudinal beams. In the rear compartment of the combat load is placed major equipment supply system.

 In the compartment of the chassis are the main landing gear and equipment of various types. In the central part of the bay of this type is the main landing gear. Power set consists of a beam, three power frames, two walls and the longitudinal and transverse beams. In the rear compartment of the right is the main block of the main computer, housed in a special sealed armored capsule. In the left compartment blocks are read-only memory and auxiliary systems of the main computer.

 The fuel compartment serves to house fuel supply. The power set is represented by three frames, longitudinal and transverse walls, the longitudinal beams.

 The turning bay is to reject rulevnonov 45 ⁰ up to the mode of maneuverability. To this end, it contains shompolnye compound hydraulic. Also in this compartment are the main components of the hydraulic system.

 In the compartment of the rotation mechanisms are deviations rulevnona.

 Rulevnon an all-moving tail carried out under the scheme axis. Rulevnon during the cruise phase of flight, and stealth mode works as elevon, allowing you to control the channel pitch and roll. During the flight mode superagility he declined to 45 ⁰ to the horizontal plane of the aircraft. Thus, the aircraft receives V -shaped tail, which enables you to control the UAV as a channel pitch and yaw in the channel. In addition, such plumage has less mass than the traditional one. The power set is presented in two power and two privates spars, two power and one soldier ribs, walls. There is also a honeycomb.

 At the trailing edge is located schiron. It is used to control in cruise mode and the stealth mode in the yaw channel. In the superagility schiron used to control the channel bank. Schiron consists of a U-shaped spars and four ribs power.

Chassis

 Landing gear consists of the front and the two main pillars. Each main landing gear is equipped with a brake wheel CT-150 size 600x160 mm front support - netormoznym wheel CT-100 size 600x150 mm. The main landing gear removed forward flight in a glider niche, front support - back in a niche between air intakes. Taxi-damping mechanism (RDM) provides a cramp the front landing gear at an angle of ± 8 ° during takeoff and landing and at an angle of ± 31 ° when taxiing, as well as vibration damping shimmy on takeoff run and run. At all landing gear used triple-pneumohydraulic dampers, a working body which are AMG-10 hydraulic oil and nitrogen.

Projects Oleg Klevtsova

About me: Klevtsov Oleg, age 40 years. He graduated from the Moscow Aviation Institute in 1994, specialty - engineer-mechanic in aircraft construction. Education has become a hobby, I try to keep abreast of developments in the industry, attended all the MAX, make scale models in scale 1 / 48. Aircraft design number 2 has successfully defended a thesis. 

Plane number 1 design features.

Plane number 1 represents SUVVP 3 generations or 5 on the general classification of generations of fighters. It is unobtrusive universal complex, combining the advantages of basing on the grounds of limited size with a runway length of 200 m and extremely high maneuverability due to the use of ink-jet control system on all flight regimes. The combination of low ESR with the implementation of hovering at low and medium altitudes, gives the "invisibility" for the Doppler radar of the enemy. Thrust of the order of 1.8 to military regimes and powerful aircraft control system allows you to quickly change the spatial position to engage in a better position to attack. These characteristics may reach the use of engines with variable geometry. " Air blasting control system is taken from the SSA increased the fan motor and the external circuit and sent to the flat nozzle with revolving doors at the front of the engine. Cold air creates a screen to protect air intake from ingress of hot gases flowing from the core multi-mode flat nozzle. Likewise, from the high pressure compressor bleed air for located at the rear of the unit SSA, which is duplicated located in the same APU. In the horizontal flight of the air from the fan is directed to the outer contour of the engine in the usual way DTRDF. There is a need to ensure the stable operation of the control in transient conditions during rapid relining of nozzles from horizontal to vertical thrust. Application of 5-point scheme (2 nozzles on the engine, plus a tail SSA) provides stability and maneuverability in all flight modes.
The big downside of the scheme is a great diversity of engines from the axis of the aircraft, offset by parrying the unfolding work of the tail moment of high SSA. Bad view from the cockpit is compensated using an integrated electro-optical system of circular view of the airspace. Several cameras and an infrared optical range located in different parts of the aircraft served in the synthesized image on a computer as a helmet-mounted display driver according to the position of his head. This provides an overview of "through the sheathing on all modes of flight and combat use. Application of full-featured system for stabilization LA 3-axis provides a fully automatic vertical landing in less time. Pilot only defines a point of landing on the screen, or dropped the marker. This will provide greater security and lowest fuel consumption at most toplivozatratnyh modes.  
Ensure low ESR helps shape the aircraft, as well as screening for conditions of high secrecy fan blade control with a movable perforated panel in the OT of the PRM (like applied to the F-117A). Additional air intake is provided through the doors at the top of the air channels. Armament placed in the interior compartments (2 front and mostly) the type of F-22A.Oversized equipment can be hung on the outer points of the suspension (up to 3). In the tail part of a compartment equipped with missile launch back to protect the aircraft in the rear hemisphere. There is a 30-mm cannon in the bow.     
Using several radars, integrated into a unified system of circular view provides the pilot the most complete information about the air environment for the effective use of weapons.  
In all other characteristics of structure, obschesamoletnogo and target equipment, armament, as well as performance characteristics due to the general requirements for fighter V generation, taking into vertical or short takeoff and vertical landing.

Terms of Reference for the design intelligence - the shock set for the action in the mountains

Based on the analysis of aviation in the mountains, processing the collected statistical information and data compilation of expert staff of technical project on designing a new reconnaissance and air attack set for action in the mountains.

Experience in use of aviation from the mountain airfields shows the need to simplify regimes takeoff and landing. Often have to go down a steep spiral, due to the proximity of mountain ranges and / or hazard of air defenses. Therefore, the equalization, the exposure, etc. There can be no question.

New air assets will be based in the immediate vicinity of the zone of application on a poorly prepared high platforms. For this purpose, the engine must be adapted to operate in rarefied air and high temperatures on unequipped runway (H = 4000 m). Landing gear (CPG) are required to ensure the possibility of basing the runway third class with the maximum allowable pressure on the bottom 4 / 5 daN/m2.

Foreign military experts have developed a conditional "expression efficiency" of the modern attack aircraft, which is closely linked with the tactics and techniques reflects the possible types of combat flight - it is the dependence of efficiency on four key factors: the "reaction", "vitality", "definition of the purpose" and "destruction" of its .

Under factor "reaction" is understood from the start of the call before the attack designated targets, its importance is determined by the heightened dynamics of modern milking. Therefore, developed by the aircraft must be able to throw with velocity Vmax of the order of 800 km / h.

Actions under enemy fire, make high demands for survival. LA must be guaranteed to be protected from the bullets of caliber 14.5 mm and 30 mm shell fragments. To reduce the risk of MANPADS and raising of surprise should be the possibility of flight at altitudes of up to 25 m above the underlying surface. Flight safety and survivability will be significantly improved using the power plant of two engines. In addition, studies of statistical data show that the ratio of single-engine aircraft accidents and multi equals 5:1. New aviation facility should have a low infrared and acoustic visibility, and therefore the noise level of the SU should not exceed 80 dB (ICAO requirements Chapter 3).

In order to effectively search aircraft equipment must be in the air from 5 to 8 hours at a speed of about 0 / 500 km / h (placing hovering). To increase the time patrols should allow in-flight refueling. The mountains in the areas of intended use does not exceed 7-8 thousand meters, so the altitude the aircraft should be about 10000 m. Flight to the limited space between the mountains and the need to combat small-sized mobile objects requires a good view from the cockpit.

In order to perform all tasks assigned to the new aviation complex, according to the tactics and using the combat experience of bringing aviation to the fight against drug traffickers and illegal armed groups fighting the aircraft has to bear load of not less than 2,000 kg. Airborne weapons must provide an opportunity to strike, without going into the affected area air defense (the maximum distance of defeat no less than 7000 m). Military experts believe that current conditions for implementation of departure to address the impact of the problem is enough 6 points suspension. 1-2 entering the target is simply not enough time to use more weapons. Striking a low altitude 15? 30 meters makes it possible to detect and destroy a target with the first call. When you exit the attack is high probability of hitting LA for Dogon trajectory. Prevent this should be hosted on a new aviation facility protective arms.

Fifth-generation fighter for the Chinese Air Force

Represented by the avatar of the author, other data unfortunately do not.

The project is based on the ideas enshrined in the MiG 1.44/1.42 and Northrop-McDonnell Douglas YF-23 .

Unlike JXX working on that now, being the two leading design bureau of China, this machine is heavy, as to the author is not the task of "where to get the appropriate motor.

The scale of such an aircraft is not even close to the MiG 1.42 and the following 'Soviet generation "- the MFP. Takeoff weight, obviously, has exceeded 45 tons. The problem of placing internal compartments, with this arrangement the air intakes, and has not been solved by designers Mikoyan design bureau. 1.42 applied to the conformal suspension missile air-to-air missiles.

X-WING Best rebel fighter fleet.
One of the most advanced fighter rebel alliance, X-Wing plays a key role in the attack on the first Death Star.

T-65 X-Wing
12.5 m (from the bow to the engine room) destroyer, was the last project of Incom Corporation before it was nationalized by the Empire.
X-Wing is so named because a pair of double wings that unfold during the fight and remind X. In the atmosphere, as well as outside of combat, the wings are folded to increase stability. At the ends of the wings are set long-range laser cannons.
A pair of torpedo launchers located on the center fuselage, each store charged with three proton torpedoes. Astrometric droid R2, placed in a neat compartment behind the droid pilot makes a lot of action in flight, such as: monitoring of injuries astronavigation and automatic piloting a fighter.
X-Wing is known for his strength, he has fortified enclosure of a special alloy and has a high generator. Can withstand a weak hitting, without significant loss of combat efficiency and has a high level of life support. X-Wing has a hyperdrive, which adds flexibility.

TIE X1
Prototype of a fighter used by Darth Vader.
At the Battle of Yavin, Darth Vader takes personally against the rebels in his fighter. This prototype vehicle, the advancedTIE X 1, the elements and the panel is made ​​of duralumin alloy, in contrast to the standard TIE . Updated set of components and a more powerful propulsion system.
Speed ​​characteristics a little better, but thanks to the empty place, added the hyperdrive and shields. Extra energy the ship can get from the generator panel. Although he has less maneuverability, but has the best fighting characteristics.
Advanced TAI X 1 has a pair of fixed heavy laser cannons in front, in addition to their shields ship had hyperdrive, but was deprived of his life-support systems.
Against insurgent Wingov X-and Y-Wingov, in a canyon of the Death Star, Darth Vader's personal ship proved to be a serious opponent, and by X1 Technologies Vader unichtozhal one opponent after another. 
While the project X1 has not been adopted for the Imperial Navy, many of its best features were used in the TAI -interceptor.

TIE
Imperial deadly space fighter.
TIE Fighter - The most common symbol of the Imperial Space Fleet, which controls the space. TIE (Twin Ion Engine) fighter is on the board even the smallest cruisers in the spaceport and garrison bases throughout the galaxy. TIE Fighter - a small ship, the hallmark of which are hexagonal pair of wings - solar reflectors on both sides of a small spherical cabin. The ship has a small profile, coupled with great maneuverability makes it difficult for a fight.
TIE fighters - the ships close range, they do not have hyperdrive to save weight and increase maneuverability. They are dependent on the carrier - database or an Imperial cruiser. They should be serviced every two days and refilled after several hours of fighting, but their huge number makes up for all design faults. Fighters are used to protect the planet and cruisers from a rebel attack, the pirates and alien ships. They also accompany heavily armed TIE bombers during the attack on the planetary construction.
Each TIE has a pair of front link against laser guns. Powerful generators for lasers mounted in the bow, which are connected as power generators and batteries. Fighter gets a lot of energy from solar radiation collected by the reflectors on the wings.
