MOSCOW, June 9. /TASS/. The advanced long-range aviation complex (PAK DA), which is being developed at PJSC Tupolev, will receive the most advanced defense system that will protect the aircraft from all types of weapons. This was reported to TASS by a source in the military-industrial complex.

According to the interlocutor of the agency, when creating a promising bomber, special emphasis is placed on protecting the aircraft from the enemy's air defense and missile defense with the help of electronic warfare. "A completely new onboard defense system is being developed for the PAK DA, which will protect it from all types of weapons - radar and optical," he said.

According to him, the promising bomber will carry only intra-fuselage weapons, including long-range missiles. "This will allow the aircraft not to enter the enemy's air defense zone, to hit designated targets from areas of the world ocean or from the territory of another state," the source said, adding that the production of a prototype of the PAK DA is underway. TASS does not have an official comment on this.

In December 2019, Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexey Krivoruchko said in an interview with the Krasnaya Zvezda newspaper that the draft design of the PAK DA aircraft was approved and PJSC Tupolev began developing working design documentation. In May 2020, TASS sources reported that production of the first prototype of the new "strategist"had begun.

The promising long-range aviation complex is designed according to the "flying wing"scheme. In the design of the machine, technologies and materials that reduce visibility (stealth technology) will be widely used. The aircraft will be able to carry existing and promising strategic cruise missiles, high-precision aerial bombs, hypersonic weapons, and will be equipped with the latest means of communication and electronic warfare. The car will get a subsonic flight speed.
