MiG of Russian Aircraft Corporation (RSK) has started development of the fifth generation on-board fighter, which will be manufactured using stealth technology. In & nbsp; complete with & nbsp;, it creates an unmanned aerial vehicle weighing more than ten tons, which will be manufactured according to & nbsp; “ flying wing '' aerodynamic diagram.
Two more fun
The plane is scheduled to be executed in the complex of & nbsp; : airborne aircraft plus an unmanned aerial vehicle weighing more than 10 & nbsp; tons.
One of the most important requirements for the Russian fifth generation fighter is super maneuverability & nbsp; & mdash; the ability of the aircraft to maintain stability and controllability at supercritical angles of attack with high G-forces, ensuring the safety of combat maneuvers, and also the ability of the aircraft to shift position relative to the flow, allowing you to aim the weapon at the target outside of the current trajectory vector. In addition, all fifth-generation aircraft must be inconspicuous, be able to fly at supersonic speeds, and shoot targets from all angles in close combat.
The aerodynamic component of the new aircraft will be based on the 'flying wing' scheme. & nbsp; & mdash; in & nbsp; the role of the fuselage is played by the wing, which carries all units, crew and nbsp; payload. & nbsp;
Now that the stage of computer modeling is underway, the first prototypes of the machine are expected to be released in the next few years.
Also, as part of the project, a vertical take-off and landing fighter can be designed. The future development will be comparable to the & nbsp; size of the MiG-35 fighter & nbsp; & mdash; its length: 17 & nbsp; meters, wingspan 12 & nbsp; meters, height: 4.44 meters
Like Bonnie and & nbsp; Clyde
The second device must be used in conjunction with a & nbsp; fighter in & nbsp; in the concept of a 'loyal winger'. Its functions & nbsp; & mdash; either refueling or joint strike. It has been reported that the & nbsp; on-board hunter will use, among other things, developments on the & nbsp; recognition and & nbsp; attack of unmanned aircraft “ Skat ''. The project has been suspended due to & nbsp; lack of funding, but in & nbsp; 2015, it was said that the work on & nbsp; “ Skat '' Continue.
'Skating' UAV Designed to destroy enemy forces under conditions of high concentration of enemy anti-aircraft guns, air defense systems, moving sea and land targets, and fixed targets. It can work both stand-alone and as a stand-alone device. in group with & nbsp; other aircraft. presumably in its composition there are autonomous sighting systems to determine and & nbsp; recognize targets and & nbsp; use more weapons on them, and & nbsp; also means of electronic countermeasures and & nbsp; recognition to ensure their own survival in & nbsp; battles.
The developers stated that the maximum device can charge 2000 & nbsp; kg combat load. The maximum speed of the vehicle at the height of the surface is 800 & nbsp; km/h. 'Skating' UAV is equipped with a traditional airplane-type landing gear, thanks to which it can land and & nbsp; take off on & nbsp; the runways of the airfield. The frame is made retractable, according to the diagram of the three supports. Each rack mounts on a wheel. Removal of the front mount with a lever mount occurs in the rear hull compartment along the flight, the remaining brackets are also of the lever type and are retracted into the niches in the mid section. & Nbsp; to a large extent, the structure is composed of & nbsp; composite materials.
