TSAMTO, December 14. During a working trip to Novosibirsk, Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexei Krivoruchko checked the progress of the state defense order at the V.P. Chkalov Aviation Plant.

At the enterprise, he was shown the roll-out of the first flight sample of the S-70 "Hunter" unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), as well as the process of assembly production of the second flight copy.

"The roll-out of the UAV records the completion of the assembly of the product as a whole, equipping it with all the necessary onboard equipment in accordance with the requirements for aircraft, and the transition to complex ground testing to prepare for the first flight," the deputy head of the military department said.

"The UAV is a highly intelligent system and is capable of solving a wide range of tasks singly, in a group and together with manned aircraft. Advanced achievements of enterprises and organizations of the domestic defense industrial complex are concentrated in the UAV, which made it possible to provide functionality that is not inferior, but in a number of parameters surpassing the few (single) foreign analogues," A.Krivoruchko added.

"Only countries with a developed aviation industry are capable of producing UAVs of this class, providing a full development cycle from design to manufacture and conducting all types of tests, as well as the development and production of all necessary ground and airborne equipment. Unmanned aerial vehicles of this class cannot be assembled from components available on the market like, say, a number of foreign analogues," A.Krivoruchko noted.

The Deputy Minister also held a meeting with the management of PJSC "NAZ named after V.P.Chkalov" and discussed the execution of state contracts.

For reference:

The Hunter strike unmanned aerial vehicle was developed at the Sukhoi Design Bureau. Its length is 14 m, wingspan is 19 m, take-off weight is more than 20 tons. The UAV is made according to the "flying wing" scheme with the use of materials that reduce radar visibility, according to the Department of Information and Mass Communications of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

Заводчане пущай серию запускают, нам бы разработчиков Су-70 уговорить из КМ планер Ил-112 запроектировать и далее участвовать в ВАСО. Другого варианта уменьшить вес транспортника и далее нормально жить с ТВ7-117СМ версии 20 летней давности, но технологиями нынешнего дня.
