The Baikal project is being closed: An-2 decided to be replaced by another aircraft

44
The project of a single-engine aircraft TVS-2DTS “Baikal”, developed by the Siberian Research Institute of Aviation on the basis of “Kukruznik”, which was supposed to go into production in 2021 at the Ulan-Ude aircraft plant, was finally closed.



This is evidenced by the statement of the press service of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, made for RIA News".

As follows from the statement, on the basis of the development of the Baikal project, a new regional aircraft will be created, designed for 9-12 passengers, which should replace the outdated An-2 "corn-picker".

Also, the Ministry of Industry and Trade noted that TVS-2DTS “Baikal” served as an experimental model for testing new of technologieson the basis of which a new regional aircraft will be created.

It is planned that the technical documentation for the prototype will be created before September 2020, and the prototype aircraft for static tests - until December.

Thus, with the closure of the Baikal project, the launch of a new regional aircraft in the series is postponed for at least a year, and air traffic in the regions will have to be provided with the same old, but reliable "corn farmers".

Recall that in Russia, more than 28 thousand settlements do not have ground communications, and in 15 regions of the country, small aircraft are the main means of moving from one point to another.

      Wrecking clear water, colleague! After all, an official to receive money for lobbying for someone’s product offered today is much more important than people living somewhere in the outback! Therefore, the number of bureaucrats increases with unimaginable speed! 12 years ago there were almost 2 times less. Power for them provides these very places. You - to me, I - to you!

        It’s for sure ... I remember that the entire Swiss government is only a dozen people, and they rule as an example to the governor of any region of the Russian Federation with hundreds of bureaucrats-parasites in addition ... It is time to reduce official positions by three times ... for sleeping in the State Duma, getting 350000 rubles per month - this is too expensive for the Russian Federation.

          The number of officials at the federal level only in Switzerland is about 36 thousand per 8,5 million people.

                According to the Central Statistical Office of the USSR, the highest level of managers in the Soviet Union, excluding the party apparatus, reached 1985 million in 2,03. But the apparatus of the CPSU under the Constitution of the USSR was part of the administrative apparatus. In addition, employees of the Komsomol and the All-Union Central Council of Trade Unions participated in the management of all levels. Total, about 100 thousand managers. In total, about 2 million 130 thousand managers are obtained in the USSR. In Russia, there are now 2 million 173 thousand. More than in the USSR, but not three times, but 1,02 times.

So that Russia will lose the remnants of personnel that can still do something. They can create a technique that surprises the world. They can create equipment that is superior to "foreign counterparts", BUT ... in single copies that do not affect the entire situation as a whole.
        And the situation is that the message with

        ... more than 28 thousand settlements that do not have ground communications, and in 15 regions of the country, small aircraft are the main means of moving from one point to another.

        ... everything will get worse.
        And the question - the Ministry of Industry and Trade - does it represent whose interests? State or "business"? As we said earlier about "business" - it will never think at the STATE level. And for the "business" it is MORE PROFITABLE to purchase and maintain the products not of our state, but those products in which HIM will be given a BIG ROLLBACK !!!
        Here everything is very simple - the Amer state is doing everything to promote its products all over the world (including in Russia), and for this they use corruption to promote the idea of ​​"non-competitive" goods developed and produced directly in Russia ( this is done not only in Russia, but we do not care about others, OUR country is important to us) - this is the first aspect of the war.
        Second aspect of war - Americans are doing everything to cause dissatisfaction of the people with the leadership of the country THROUGH OUR OFFICIALS (as always - corruption, s). And for this, all the tricks are good for achieving the goal.
        These are the goals solved by ONE ACTION - killing aviation production in Russia, both small and aviation in general! ... And this is one of the ways of the collapse of the country with OUR HANDS!

They will now sculpt from what the Chinese have and can be scraped together in Russia. What will come of this? But nothing will come of it - by that time the Chinese will set up their similar aircraft and they will begin to massively purchase them to Russia, and not new ones, but already used ones, so that they will be cheaper.

    Just don’t throw your slippers, I like the plane too, and it’s a pity that it will not be there. I’m not going to justify anyone, but in my opinion, according to modern safety standards, 10 engines should be installed on new airplanes, if there are more than 2 people, and personal experience traveling on a corn truck suggests that airplanes on such flights need more space, this is not a taxi and, most likely, it will also affect profitability. To the stern, the engine is American, with all the ensuing consequences. So, as the bearded daughter of an officer from the Crimea said, not everything is so simple.))))

    Wrecking is starting mass construction of this ....
    Well, why did you decide that this building is good?
    In the characteristics, the designer does not indicate fuel and cargo efficiency - g / person / km and ruble / ton / kilometer and aerodynamic quality of the airframe. The only visible plus of the aircraft is that it supposedly fits into the existing infrastructure developed for the An-2, with significant changes in the engine and fuel, which will make it impossible to operate it economically.
    Compare the terms of leasing, plus the operating costs of this "masterpiece" of domestic aircraft construction with foreign counterparts 20-30 years ago, and you will understand where Russia is.
    For example, Pilatus PC-12 - the first flight - 1991. Asking price: $ 2,15 - $ 3,45 million. Direct operating costs: $ 668 / hour. Fixed costs: $ 210 / year.
