    The volume of orders Ilyushin Aviation Complex 2020 is estimated at 515 billion rubles


    Potential backlog of "Aviation Complex im.Ilyushina" estimated over 500 billion rubles, according to General Director - General Designer Viktor Livanov company, reporting to the Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin.

    "If you count all the orders together with serial supply, it can be estimated up to 2020 about 515 billion rubles. This is a potential backlog for" im.Ilyushina Aviation Complex "- said the head of the enterprise.

    Orders by serial enterprise 2020 should, in particular, to produce IL-12, 112V, 39 - Il-76MD-90A, three tanker aircraft IL-78M, as well as about 16 Russian-Indian aircraft MTS.

    "As IL-112V until the contract is not, by IL-76 contract was signed on 39 machines as IL-78, we now carry out experimental design work, serial contract has not been signed. According contact MTS, today, too, is not" - said Livanov .

    In addition, the company until 2015 should be modernized four Il-96 aircraft configuration control point, the control point and the combined communication center (project funding 882 910 000 rubles).

    "It's no secret that the leaders of our state continue to fly the IL-96, and the Office of Presidential Affairs continues to book planes and produce their modernization" - said the director of the company plans to modernize IL-96.

    Rogozin: Russian aircraft designers must escape from the screwdriver assembly


    Dmitry Rogozin considers it necessary to transition from aircraft manufacturers screwdriver assembly to a full design and build its own aircraft. With this appeal Deputy Prime Minister appealed to designers while visiting Aviation Complex. Ilyushin.

    Rogozin said that for full control over the vast territory of the Russian Federation country "as the air needs its own aircraft."

    According to him, currently the company are promising for designing civil passenger aircraft and Il-114 transport aircraft IL-112. In addition, the high expectations of the Russian-Indian project AIT and IL-476.

    "Today, we must rely on their own strength. A country with such aviation tradition certainly has a great future. We should get together and identify priority measures. Should be a clear plan" - quoted by ITAR-TASS as saying deputy prime minister.

    The development of a next-generation military-transport aircraft (PAK TA) was started in Russia
    Russian Aviaton » Thursday March 20, 2014 17:57 MSK

    The enterprises of Russian military-industrial sector have started the development of a next-generation military-transport aircraft – PAK TA (similarly to PAK FA it may stand for Perspective Airborne Complex of Transport Aviation). The project should be completed in the next decade, ITAR-TASS reports with reference to CEO of Ilyushin Aviation Complex, Viktor Livanov.

    "The project does not have an approved name; for now it is called PAK TA - Perspective Airborne Complex of Transport Aviation. Today it is just a project that may be implemented by 2030", - the source explained. According to him, the exact specifications for PAK TA will be elaborated later after negotiations with potential customers.

    Livanov added that this aircraft will be offered to several customers, including Russian Ministry of Defense.

    "The first wind-tunnel data showed us possible variants and now TsAGI (Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute named after N.E. Zhukovsky) will study them thoroughly", - Ilyushin’s CEO said. He added that the scientific research work in the network of PAK TA project is being carried out by the specialists of TsAGI, Myasishcev Design Bureau and other enterprises.

    Picture fins instead of the actual ramjet air intakes and it makes more sense. Like I said, the missile models aren't very high fidelity.

    If I view them as being long fins instead of intakes that makes it look less like a Kh-31 rather than more like one....  dunno 

    It might perhaps be a solid rocket motor version of the Kh-31 for use as a long range anti AWACS AAM with a strake fin replacing the air intakes for the ramjet...

    To be honest I hope it doesn't come out like it shows in the picture, they should create a heavy lift transport plane derivative of the Pak-Da. The VDV could definitely benefit from a stealthy transport plane.

    I hope it replaces the An-22 Cock. I'm confident it will - because in every other field we already have a potential replacement.
    And they already have the base for such a project - the ill-fated Il-106; in the same way as the PAK-FA had the Su-47, MiG 1.42 projects to work from, and the PAK-DA had various Soviet-era research and projects.

    An-24, An-26, An-30 replaced by Il-112, An-140, possibly the Il-114 too
    An-12, An-26, An-72 replaced by Il-214 MTA
    Il-76 by the Il-476, An-70
    An-22 by ???
    An-124 with modernized An-124 variants

    While the Ukraine situation might throw a wrench in a couple of these plans; the biggest gap is for the An-22. Possibly the restarting of An-124 production may now fall-through - which would create even more urgency for a heavy strategic airlifter; possibly the PAK-TA will combine the An-22 and An-124 roles.

    which would create even more urgency for a heavy strategic airlifter; possibly the PAK-TA will combine the An-22 and An-124 roles.

    Agree... perhaps an Il-206 in the 110 ton payload range, or perhaps a modular pair of aircraft with one using 4 engines in the 90-100 ton payload range to compete with the C-17 and replace the An-22, and one with 6 engines in the 140 ton class to replace the An-124.

    Or develop some much bigger much more powerful engines and go for a twin engined 90-100 ton class aircraft and a 4 engined 140-160 ton class aircraft.

    Any questions, ask away.

    For those who wanted a translated version:

    About the uniqueness of the current situation in the Russian aircraft industry
    The other day, a senior source in the aviation industry bmpd gave some, perhaps, not very sensational, but reasonably interesting details of the current situation. We want to share with our readers onymi.

    PAK FA program

    In 2013, the completed factory testing, this year launched a joint state tests, which is scheduled for completion in 2015. From 2016 to begin small-scale production. This year, the main effort on the tests will be aimed at testing of avionics, especially those of its modes, which provide a low profile. In the near future will also practice the application of TSA. In 2014 to join another test, the sixth car, next year - two more, then series. To prepare for the production of Komsomolsk extended mechanical and heat treatment, created a new electroplating production. Expanded and modernized testing base and polygons, as the old can not provide test fifth-generation. When creating the PAK FA as the Su-35S, abandoned the use of pilot production, testing machines manufactured at the production plant that facilitates the preparation of a series.

    The question of creating a light fighter of the fifth generation.

    Our combat aircraft have always been and will be heavier than the Western, not only because of different technological environment, but also on the operating conditions, so the tendency to heavier military machines understandable. Now the main thing - is to develop the technological environment, so that when the rise is a challenge to be able to establish adequate technical solutions. Maybe it will not be easy fifth-generation fighter, and drones and advanced fourth-generation machines. To solve the problem of creating a light fighter need to make significant progress in migovskoy cooperation - and engines and avionics and radar. That is, first - technology, and only then technical solutions. Today the main task - the development of the MiG-29 in the direction of the MiG-35. In general, the future Air Force group will likely be a mixture of the PAK FA, Su-35 and UAVs

    LVTS and promising attack.

    Russian Defense Ministry is still not decided definitively to this topic discusses the various projects. The main challenge for the favorite - IL-112V - is cost control. In the UAC are already thinking about the creation of superheavy PTS family, but it is clear that everything must be done not simultaneously but sequentially - first LVTS and AIT, then heavy machinery. Likewise, the military has not yet decided on perspective and attack aircraft. Variants of deep modernization of the Su-25, creating a light attack aircraft based on the Yak-130 and the development of fundamentally new machine.

    The question of restoring production MiG-31

    If we are to resume production of the MiG-31, the only profoundly modernized. But now, in principle, with increasing range missile launch does not need speed, and for continued bombardment machine.

    PAK DA

    Has a contract for the preliminary design. According to the results of creating conceptual design will be given military TK. The work on the PAK DA will be used not only potential Tupolev, but the entire KLA, in particular, technical and institutional capacities of "dry", created by the project PAK FA. Apparently, this project PAK DA, rather than the light fighter will use engineering and design resources that become vacant after the bulk of the work on the PAK FA.

    The problem of diverse nature park

    Generally this question to the military. In principle, the task of reducing costs facial features, and at some point the number of types will be reduced. But now the Su-30M2 serves as a trainer aircraft for the Su-27SM, which has a unified information-control field. Su-30cm completes Su-35S, which will be the base of the fourth generation aircraft for the Russian Air Force. Su-30M2 purchases - a consequence of the acute shortage of UBS in the Russian Air Force. Partly redundant diverse nature - a consequence of the lack of procurement in the 90s and the beginning of zero's. When the military got money, they began to buy all that the industry has to offer, including the groundwork.

    Main task of the SDO

    Priority today - ensuring serviceability park. Prior to the transfer of the KLA Remzavod serviceability indicators were at 40%, now reached the 50% objective for this year - to get 60% of serviceability. Contracts for repairs only began to massively subscribing, cycle repairs - 5-6 months, so that the situation will improve dramatically until next year. The share of new aircraft in the Russian Air Force - only 10%, so that repairs are needed (for comparison - the share of new helicopters - 40%). Only on engines for this year contracted repair 600 engines, the contracts were signed by 95%. It is supposed to renovate 200 aircraft. Absolute priority - repair (with simultaneous updating avionics) machines range aviation.

    The development of the Su-35S

    The main thing in the last year - began integration of TSA, just 14 types of integrated TSA. Now the problem - extension of the scope of TSA. But the integration of new types of TSA continues. This year will be delivered 12 Su-35S (excluding officially transferred in February), and most importantly - it is expected to conclude a new contract for another 48 units. Lifetime Warranty Dzemgi machines - three years is unprecedented. Now continue in parallel OCD scale manufacture and deploy measures to maintain the park. Recovery after failure detection - no more than 5 hours. Partly due to the proximity of the plant, but there also sits warranty Brigade Support Group and deployed tehaptechka. On the organization of the program has a high level of integration - the chief designer Igor Demin became the leader of all the Su-35s, and is now responsible not only for OCD, but also mass production and operation support.

    The situation in the UAC

    Source categorically denied rumors about moving JSC "Tupolev" in Kazan. Moscow on the site now operates 1.5 thousand people, and no one anywhere is not going to send them. A thousand people are employed at the branch on Tupolev CAPO, and 500 - in Ulyanovsk, these two units will grow, but not at the expense of moving persons from Moscow. Combining "Tupolev" PSC and CAPO in one economic entity need for more operational issues SDO implementation, especially with regard to long-range aviation. This objectively overdue restructuring, like the creation of a vertically integrated company "Sukhoi" or RAC "MiG". Combining make life easier for the military. Now the Russian Defense Ministry contracts with the two economic entities that when problems occur nod at each other. After the unification will be the only responsible for the implementation of the SDO.
    By KLA in general. Annually on work accepted 1.5 thousand people. During the seven years of investment in re KLA grew from 1 to 10 billion rubles, in just seven years invested 45 billion rubles, which is roughly about $ 1.5 billion shall be policies outpace wage growth for workers basic specialties compared to managers. Strategic objective - to increase the volume of production KLA 350 billion rubles, only then the company will become effective. When creating UAC two plants - Komsomolsk and Irkutsk, with 40% of staff UAC, gave 85% of its production, the remaining 60% of employees - only 10% of production. Now the situation has leveled, began to breathe Voronezh (10 billion in sales this year) and Ulyanovsk, increasing production in Novosibirsk.
