At home, Russian Air Force Sus were heavily involved in the first and second Chechen campaigns and the type has undergone a mid-life update allowing it to carry precision-guided munitions, and is still going strong. Illustrated with over photographs, many previously unpublished, as well as line drawings, color side views, insignia, unit badges and nose art this latest addition to the Famous Russian Aircraft series will be of interest to aviation enthusiasts and scale modelers alike. Yefim Gordon is one of Russia's leading aviation writers and publishers. He is the author of many books on Soviet aviation and currently lives in Moscow. Dmitriy Komissarov is a respected authority on Russian and Soviet aviation. He works in the publishing industry and lives in Moscow. Sukhoi Su Famous Russian Aircraft. Yefim GordonDmitriy Sukhoi Su- 24: Famous Russian Aircraft. Developed in the Soviet Union in the s, the Su tactical bomber has become one of the most successful aircraft in its class. Featuring delta wings and auxiliary lift engines meant to improve its field performance, the first prototype turned out to be more of a liability than an asset and the aircraft was redesigned to have variable geometry wings. Sukhoi Su Famous Russian Aircraft - Yefim Gordon, Dmitriy Komissarov - Google книги Moving the stick all the way to one side, I waited as long as I was told to. All of a sudden the aircraft changed the direction of its roll on its own and started yawing sharply left and tight. A series of deafening bangs resounded through the aircraft as one of the engines surged. This quote hints at one of the features the Su is famous for introducing on Soviet aircraft, the swing-wing, or, properly, three-position variable-geometry wing. Pick any three current conflicts from the news and chances are someone is operating this Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft year-old aircraft in anger. In fact, that Russian jet the Turks shot down in November was an Su If it can do all that, it is no wonder the Fencer had a long production run first flighta multitude of operators and several variants, and Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft receiving continuous upgrades. Author Gordon is pretty much still the gold standard for books available in the West about Russian aircraft, and whoever joins him on any one project is likewise a reliable guide. For all practical purposes, from physical format to paper type to methodology the new book looks and works exactly as its esteemed predecessors. Specifically this means that both the aviation historian and the scale modeler will find almost overwhelming detail here. It too is sort of overwhelming, not only because it is subdivided into categories such as aircraft, bombs, locations etc. Over illustrations from a vast number of Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft augment the text, along with tables of all sorts of stats and specs. Dozens of color profiles show paint schemes and markings and there are many illustrations of unit patches, nose art, etc. Name required. Mail will not be published required.

SuM Fencer Bomber - Airforce Technology The aircraft has a variable-sweep wingtwin-engines and a side-by-side seating arrangement for its crew of two. One of the conditions for accepting the Sukhoi Su-7 B into service in was the requirement for Sukhoi to develop an all-weather variant capable of precision air strikes. Preliminary Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft with S and S aircraft revealed that the basic Su-7 design was too small to contain all the avionics required for the mission. The resulting F would introduce a variable-geometry wing for greatly increased payload, range, and low-level penetration capabilities. In —, Sukhoi initially set out Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft build an aircraft without the complexity of moving wings like the F The mockup was inspected but no further work was ordered due to lack of progress on the Puma hardware. InSukhoi started work on SM. The aircraft was supposed to represent a modification of the Sukhoi Su interceptor factory designation S A key feature was the ability to cruise at supersonic speeds at low altitude for extended Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft of time in order to traverse enemy air defenses. Side-by-side seating for the crew Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft implemented since the large Orion radar antennas required a large frontal cross-section. The aircraft was officially sanctioned on 24 August under the internal codename T The first prototype, Twas completed in May and flew on 2 July with Vladimir Ilyushin at the controls. STOL tests confirmed the data from SVD that short-field performance was achieved at the cost of significant loss of flight distance as the lift engines occupied space normally reserved for fuel, loss of under-fuselage hardpointsand instability during transition from STOL to conventional flight. Bythe F had entered service and demonstrated the practical advantages and solutions to the technical problems of a swing-wing design. On 7 Augustthe OKB was officially tasked with investigating a variable geometry wing for the T The resulting TI first flew on 17 January with Ilyushin at the controls. The subsequent government trials lasted untildictated by the complexity of the on-board systems. Ten fatal accidents occurred during Su development, killing thirteen Sukhoi and Soviet Air Force test pilots. The first production aircraft flew on 31 December with V. Vylomov at the controls, and on 4 FebruaryT-6 was formally accepted into service as the Su The upgraded aircraft are designated SuM2. Its high wing loading provides a stable low-level ride and minimal gust response. Because the Su is used almost exclusively for low-level missions, the actuators for the variable intakes were deleted to reduce weight and maintenance. This has no effect on low-level performance, but absolute maximum speed and altitude are cut to Mach 1. The revised aircraft also gained three side-by-side antenna fairings in the nose, a repositioned braking chute, and Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft new ram-air inlet at the base of the tail fin. The Su's fixed armament is a single fast-firing GSh cannon with rounds of ammunition, mounted in the fuselage underside. The gun is covered with an eyelid shutter when not in use. The armament includes various nuclear weapons. Initial Sus had basic electronic countermeasures ECM equipment, with many Sus limited to the old Sirena radar-warning receiver with no integral jamming system. Later-production Sus had more Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft radar warning, missile-launch warning, and active ECM equipment, with triangular antennas on the sides of the intakes and the tip of the vertical fin. Inroughly were in service with Russian forces, split with the Russian Air Force and 94 with the Russian Navy. The Soviet Union used some Sus in the Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft Warwith an initial round of strikes in and a second intervention at the end of the war in No Su were lost. Seven Su jets were used in this operation. Another five were destroyed on the ground, while the sole survivor remained in service after the war. Fencers were used by the Uzbek Air Force UzAF against United Tajik Opposition operating from Afghanistan which Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft had a civil war of its own going onas part of a wider air campaign in support of the embattled government of Tajikistan during the —97 civil war. Both Russian crew members were rescued. In August Tajikistan protested over an alleged strike involving four UzAF Sus against Islamist militants in areas close to two mountain villages in the Jirgatol District that, despite not producing human casualties, killed some head of livestock and set ablaze several crop fields. Tashkent denied the accusations. In the final stages of the phase of the Afghan civil warUzbekistan launched airstrikes against Taliban positions in support of the Northern Alliance. During a mission to attack a Taliban armoured infantry unit near Heiratan, an UzAF Su was shot down on 6 Junekilling both crew members. On 3 Februaryduring operations over Chechenya, a Russian SuM hit the ground in bad weather killing both crew members. Sus were used in combat during the Second Chechen War performing bombing and reconnaissance missions. Up to four were lost, one due to hostile fire: on 4 Octobera Su was shot down by a SAM while searching for the crash site of a downed Su The pilot was killed while the navigator was taken prisoner. In Augusta low intensity conflict in the breakaway Georgian regions of Samachablo and Abkhazia, escalated to open war between Russia and Georgia. At the beginning ofthe Libyan Air Force was Sukhoi Su-24: Famous Russian Aircraft to attack rebel positions and opposition rallies. The largest part of the former fleet was in disrepair or stored in not flyable condition. Both crew members died. A BBC reporter was on the scene soon after the event and filmed an aircraft part at the crash site showing the emblem of the th squadron, flying the SuMK.

    [SU-27] DCS DCS: Su-27 Flanker Eagle Dynamics i Flight Manual DCS [SU-27] DCS: Su-27 for DCS World The Su-27, NATO codename Flanker, is one of the pillars of modern-day Russian combat aviation. Built to counter the American F-15 Eagle, the Flanker is a twin-engine, supersonic, highly manoeuvrable air superiority fighter. The Flanker is equally capable of engaging targets well beyond visual range as it is in a dogfight given its amazing slow speed and high angle attack manoeuvrability. Using its radar and stealthy infrared search and track system, the Flanker can employ a wide array of radar and infrared guided missiles. The Flanker also includes a helmet-mounted sight that allows you to simply look at a target to lock it up! In addition to its powerful air-to-air capabilities, the Flanker can also be armed with bombs and unguided rockets to fulfil a secondary ground attack role. Su-27 for DCS World focuses on ease of use without complicated cockpit interaction, significantly reducing the learning curve. As such, Su-27 for DCS World features keyboard and joystick cockpit commands with a focus on the most mission critical of cockpit systems.

As a result, there is a tension felt when this claim is made at the beginning of a text with which a reader is unfamiliar, leading to the risk of assuming which parts of the narrative are true and which were fabricated. This thesis will explore several texts and works of narrative art which bare the markings of being “based on a true story,” but which challenge the reader to think critically when comparing their contents to verifiable sources.

  • Vanishing Cosmonauts -- with Photos
    Cosmonauts Who Weren’t There James Oberg June 24 2012 [illustrations added] In the years between the end of the Apollo program (1975) and the first orbital flights of the space shuttle (1981), when I was on the Mission Control Center team in Houston preparing for the first launch of ‘Columbia’, one of my additional duties was to provide background briefings for new personnel there. I found that one particular set of “space history” slides made one audience especially nervous. It wasn’t what the slides showed, but rather, what they did NOT show. The pictures were of groups of Russian cosmonauts, smiling confidently for the cameras. But what made the audience laugh -- at first -- was that subsequent versions of the very same group photographs had gaps. Faces clearly seen in the first versions had vanished to the retoucher’s airbrush. My most nervous audience was the new ‘space shuttle astronaut selection’, 35 men and women chosen in 1978 to supplement the two dozen Apollo veterans and as-yet unflown rookies from that era. They were sobered to realize the apparent implication of the forged Russian cosmonaut photographs -- if a space trainee screwed up, he (or she) could just disappear. Now, I’m not making this up. To prevent that from ever happening to themselves, they all vowed not to screw up. As an added defense to photo erasure, they joked, in any group photo sessions they would entwine their arms very tightly with each other. And it really was funny, after all. Here were clumsy Soviet propagandists obviously trying to conceal the existence of several individuals who had been members of their first cosmonaut teams.

  • All Sides Claim Victory in 1996 Gubernatorial Elections
    ALL SIDES CLAIM VICTORY IN 1996 GUBERNATORIAL ELECTIONS Although they did not receive nearly as much international attention as the July presidential election, the 48 Russian regional elections held between 1 September and 5 January were closely watched by Russian politicians and commentators. Gubernatorial elections were held in 45 oblasts, krais, and autonomous okrugs, forcing leaders appointed by President Boris Yeltsin to face the voters. Three ethnic republics also elected top executives. Both the Kremlin and opposition leaders have portrayed the elections as a success, but many new governors have pledged to use their mandates to benefit their own regions, and it is difficult to predict where their primary loyalties will lie. Who are the new governors? Of the 48 incumbent regional leaders who faced elections in 1996, 20 held on to their jobs and 24 were defeated. Another three continue to serve pending repeat elections in their regions, and Tyumen Governor Leonid Roketskii will contest a runoff on 12 January. (A complete list of election results is attached to this issue of the Russian Regional Report.) Fifteen of the 24 new governors were elected mainly with the backing of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (KPRF) and its left-wing umbrella movement, the Popular-Patriotic Union of Russia (NPSR). Of the successful Communist-backed candidates, seven were chairmen of regional or local legislatures immediately before being elected governor (Krasnodar and Altai krais and Voronezh, Volgograd, Kaluga, Vladimir, and Kurgan oblasts). Four others were State Duma deputies (Kirov, Bryansk, and Chelyabinsk oblasts and Stavropol Krai), and one (Ryazan) worked in the parliament's Audit Chamber.

Onze eerste ontmoeting was met de architect ir. Yuri Vasiliev, die nadere bijzonderheden verschafte over de universiteitsstad die op 45 kilometer afstand van hier wordt gebouwd. Hij werd bijgestaan door professor Igor Famin en een andere architect Vladimir Maslov, die alle maar gewenste details invulden. Ik vroeg professor Famin of er ook met de psychologie van toekomstige studentengeneraties rekening werd gehouden bij het ontwerpen van een universiteitsstad. ‘Alle architecten zijn ook een beetje psycholoog,’ antwoordde hij. ‘Ik ben kunstenaar,’ viel architect Maslov in de rede. ‘Veel mensen hebben geen belangstelling voor psychologie.’ ‘Dat is juist zo jammer,’ zei ik, ‘want de psyche is misschien wel het kernpunt waar alles om draait. Kunt u de betekenis van een traan in een oog uitleggen?’ ‘Dat is een filosofische vraag en waarom zouden wij die stellen wanneer we een traan niet kunnen verklaren,’ kwam als antwoord.

    Introduction “As I fly through the air at speeds of sound, Whilst shattering through clouds new mirth I have found, Like a new way of life for a boy who is lost Wants to be a hero in glory but unsure of the cost. Civilian life, you know, was just no fun, Now what I have as I wanted, is my plane and my gun Through all the briefings, the odds were for me, I thought this would just be another cake piece. Suddenly, from nowhere, a MiG on my six, I flicked with the controls, this was not as I fixed. He fires his missile, no time to fret, I fire my countermeasures, my palms covered with sweat. He misses, a momentary win, and as just a little mock, I try to turn around him and let my cannon do the talk. But, through all the gunfire, his bullet hits my wing, As I fall to the ground, I hear my ear ring As if t’were God saying as I triggered the self eject, “Yes, my son, this is the art of war, don’t deject.” -Venkat Krishnaraj All through this book, we would be running along facts enveloping the current air forces, air planes, fighters and missiles. “Complete Air Dominance-A flight of a lifetime” explains the various aspects of air-forces from the strategic as well as the technical point of view. It covers almost the entire spectrum: right from the evolution of the first airplane to a sneak peek of the near future. This book explains the role of each airplane within the airforce, the strategic advantages and disadvantages associated with each plane.
