Sukhoi PAK-FA / FGFA: Updates,News & Discussions

well i actually termed the nozzle by it's rectangular shape only :undecided:,may be hexagonal would
be the appropiate word.

Hmm can it support 3D thrust vectoring like this as shown in pic below I am not sure ????:what:

but madam i think F22 has 2 axis tvc nozzles in it's production model .

Doc, there was no concept of hexagonal nozzle before, either nozzles were round or flat (rectangular for F-22). The shape of a hexa nozzle is like a hexagon and is somewhat close to being circular. This design is not proven yet as its still in conceptual stage and believed to support 3D thurst vectoring.

We havnt seen such a design in real scenario and hence it is dificult to conclude anything now, but they might go for this design if they want to give both 3D and reduced signature as this is the only option...

Else they need to compromise one..
 
A report from an engine technology exhibition some time late 2011 detailing FGUP TsIAM's work.

http://engine.aviaport.ru/issues/79/pics/pg04.pdf

As regards PAK-FA, TsIAM is delegated work regarding:

малоступенчатым высоконагруженным вентилятору и КВД с низкой массой;
A fewer staged, high loading fan and a low mass, HP compressor;

основной высокотемпературной камере сгорания;
The main high-temperature combustion chamber;

высокотемпературной одноступенчатой ТВД;
High-temperature, single-staged HP turbine;

легкой форсажной бесстабилизаторной камере сгорания;
A lean-burn combustion chamber without a stabilizer

Also reported is work on a UAV (UCAV?) engine and conceptual design of the PAK-DA engine.

Tikhomirov NIIP to Custom Build AESA Radar for IAF FGFA

Tikhomirov NIIP will custom build a AESA Radar for IAF's FGFA fleet, which will be different from the AESA radar that Tikhomirov is developing for the PAK- FA / T-50 fifth-generation fighter aircraft.

Tikhomirov-NIIP Director General Yury Bely revealed the information in an interview with Take Off magazine for its June 2012.

Tikhomirov-NIIP developed the Bars PESA radar that is currently fitted on IAF Su-30MKI fighters. The radar is supplied to the IAF BY Tikhomirov NIIP partner Ryazan State Instrument-making Enterprise. Ryazan is also helping HAL with local manufacture of the BARS PESA.

Under a preliminary agreement with HAL, Tikhomirov NIIP would also be developing the AESA radar for IAF's upgraded Su-30MKI aircraft. A final contract has, however, not been signed.

Meanwhile, Tikhomirov NIIP developed AESA radar for the T-50 has commenced flight testing on the T-50-3 prototype at Zhukovsky near Moscow in June 2012.

Test and alignment of the fourth radar is nearing completion prior to its shipping to Komsomolsk-on-Amur where the radar will be mounted on the T-50-4. Flight trials of the fourth AESA are expected to commence before the end of 2012.

Manufacture of two more AESA radars for subsequent PAK FA prototypes, is under way.

The company "Dry" in 2013 will produce the fifth prototype fifth-generation fighter

Tests of promising Russian aviation complex tactical aviation (PAK FA) are in accordance with the schedule next year will begin service testing, said the president of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC), Mikhail Pogosyan. According to him, is now in trials involving three cars. By the end of the year to connect the fourth test aircraft and, in 2013 - the fifth.
In 2013, the schedule will begin work with the Ministry of Defense Test PAK FA. In the implementation of the program to create a fighter is the problem: some systems suppliers rip time, there are issues of quality, in terms of performance. However, Pogosyan said, it is - working times that are inevitable when you create a fundamentally new technology, the 30-40th serial aircraft manufacturing process stabilizes. He noted that the Russian aircraft industry is extremely important to increase the volume of production, above all, civil and military transport aircraft.

Today, the aircraft "Sukhoi Superjet 100" is about 170 orders. Among the foreign customers - airlines in Indonesia and Mexico.

We should wait MKI upgrade till we get this AESA radar and should install the same radar in MKI too.
