Military applications emerged fairly early in the infancy of aviation, in the form of first trials to establish the superiority of the third dimension over the battlefield. Well- known examples include the balloon reconnaissance efforts made in France even before the birth of the aircraft, and it was not long before the first generation of flimsy, underpowered aircraft were being tested in a military environment. The Italians used aircraft for reconnaissance missions at Tripoli in 1910-1912, and the Americans made their first attempts at taking air power to sea as early as 1910-1911.

    Order Code RL30730 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Russian Fighter Aircraft Industrial Base: Parallels with the United States? November 8, 2000 Christopher Bolkcom Analyst in National Defense Ellen Schwarzler Research Associate Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Congressional Research Service The Library of Congress This CRS Report was prepared at the request of Representative James Talent. It has been released for general congressional use with his permission. Russian Fighter Aircraft Industrial Base: Parallels with the United States? Summary There are many differences between the fighter aircraft industry in the United States and in Russia. The United States has traditionally produced its weaponry within a capitalist framework which allowed free enterprise and competition between companies in private industry. The former Soviet Union’s economy, and its fighter aircraft industry was based on a Marxist, command economy, where the central government dictated the type and number of aircraft produced and allocated resources for construction. Once among the most glamorous components of the Soviet military industrial complex, the Russian military aircraft industry has been described by some analysts as being on the verge of collapse. Russia’s civilian aircraft industry has faced similar pressures, which does not bode well for the military aviation infrastructure. It may be difficult for fighter aircraft companies to find employment in Russia’s beleaguered civil aircraft sector. The Russian government has attempted to reform its fighter aircraft industrial base and make it more efficient and competitive with western industry. It has initiated several reforms aimed at reducing the stratification and compartmentalization of industrial processes, as well as improving access to financial resources.

  • DCS: Su-27 Flanker Flight Manual
    [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.

  • Economic Growth in the Governance of the Cold War Divide Mikoyan's
    Economic Growth in the Governance of the Cold War Divide Mikoyan’s Encounter with Japan, Summer 1961 ✣ Oscar Sanchez-Sibony Noguchi Yoshio had written to him after all. Anastas Mikoyan had been re- tired for ten years. The year was 1975, and to mark Mikoyan’s 80th birthday, Noguchi had sent the retired Soviet official a souvenir.1 He was not the only one to remember Mikoyan in his retirement. Writing in 1972 on the occasion of his oil company’s 60th anniversary, the redoubtable Idemitsu Sazo sent to Mikoyan—in the somewhat bewildered words of then-Soviet ambassador to Japan Oleg Troyanovskii—a “piece of cloth.”2 Matsubara Yosamatsu, presi- dent of the industrial and shipbuilding conglomerate Hitachi Zosen, chose a more personal note. In his letter, he recounted to Mikoyan the first time they met in August 1961 during Mikoyan’s tour of the corporation’s shipyard in Sakurajima, as well as their encounter a year later when Matsubara headed a delegation of Japanese businessmen in Moscow. “Ten years have passed since then,” he wistfully wrote to the Old Bolshevik. “And in that time, economic relations between our two countries strengthen with every year as trade rela- tions develop between our countries even more greatly.”3 Meanwhile, Prime Minister Sato Eisaku also recalled that fateful year, writing in his personal letter to Mikoyan: “I am sincerely glad that relations between Japan and the Soviet Union, especially after your visit to Japan in 1961, continue to develop 1. Mikoyan’s thank-you note dates from 1 December 1975 and is stored in Russian State Archive of Sociopolitical History (RGASPI), Fond (F.) 84, Opis’ (Op.) 3, Delo (D.) 108, List (L.) 43.

  • Client Update U.S. Issues Guidance on Sanctions Relating to Russia's
    Client Update 1 October 30, 2017 Client Update U.S. Issues Guidance on Sanctions Relating to Russia’s Defense and Intelligence Sectors On Friday, October 27, the U.S. Department of State issued public guidance on the implementation of Section 231 of the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA). Section 231 of CAATSA requires the U.S. President to impose potential sanctions against individuals or entities that knowingly engage in “significant transactions” with persons that are a part of, or operating for or on behalf of, Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. An overview of CAATSA is provided in our Client Update of July 28, 2017. The new guidance is accompanied by a list of entities considered to be operating in Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. The guidance indicates, however, that not all large transactions with the listed entities will be considered “significant.” Rather, the State Department will focus largely on defense-related or intelligence-related transactions. Section 231 of CAATSA authorizes sanctions for conduct engaged on or after August 2, 2017, with any sanctions imposed becoming effective on or after January 29, 2018. The State Department also has stated that it intends, when possible, to “work with” persons contemplating transactions with the listed persons to help avoid sanctionable transactions. DEFENSE AND INTELLIGENCE SECTORS Over thirty entities, listed in the appendix to this update, are identified in the guidance as persons that are part of, or operating for or on behalf of, Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. As the State Department’s guidance makes clear, the entities named in the guidance are not subject to U.S.

  • Ancra-Signs-Contract-With-Irkut Copy
    For Immediate Release Ancra Signs Contract with Irkut for MC-21 Lower Deck Cargo Loading Systems MOSCOW, RU — Ancra International, LLC has signed a contract with Irkut Corporation to develop and deliver the lower deck cargo loading systems for the new MC-21-200 and MC-21-300 mainline passenger aircraft. Each aircraft has the option of a manual or powered-loading system – using 2-inch Power Drive Units – with all four systems being developed simultaneously. Integral to the design is an offering to the operator for future upgrade from manual to powered capability. The powered systems leverage technology from Ancra’s 747-400 and A330 converted freighter main deck powered cargo loading systems and are designed to load and unload IATA 40/1 and 50/0 containers with reduced manpower. Critical Design Review is scheduled for December 2015 and the first system delivery is scheduled in August 2016. “We are excited to be part of the Irkut team as they bring their decades of experience designing and building aircraft to the 150-210 passenger aircraft market space. This program is a blessing for us as we take our own extensive main deck cargo loading system experience and expand it into the passenger lower deck domain.” says Ed Dugic, Director of Sales and Marketing for Ancra Aircraft Systems. About Ancra International Ancra International was founded in 1969 to serve the cargo handling industry with a complete line of cargo restraint and conveyance equipment for the air, truck, and rail markets.

    Introduction The United States Army Air Forces became an independent service, the United States Air Force, in 1947-the second year, supposedly, of “peace.” In reality there had just begun a long conflict between the United States and its allies and the Soviet Union and the satellite states subject to it. In 1949 lhe United States and most of the non-Communist countries of Europe signed the North Atlantic Treaty. The United States Air Force, which had been only a token presence on the continent since the end of World War 11, once more crossed the Atlantic in strength. The commitment of that service to peace and security in Europe, which continues still, has been the longest of its history. This pamphlet attempts to give the general reader some sense of the role the USAF has played in Europe since the end of World War 11. It contains three sections. The first reviews the reasons for the origins of the Cold War and describes the strategic concerns that drove the United States to commit itself to the military defense of distant lands. The second section reviews the higher strategy of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) with special reference to the central role of air power. The final section reviews the history of the United States Air Forces in Europe (USAFE) in order to show the many ways in which the United States Air Force has served American national- security policy on the continent. This section is closely based on a brief history of USAFE prepared by Dr. Daniel Harrington of USAFE’s history office.
