Antonov signed for the inability to build the first An-178

51

SE "Antonov" (part of the SC "Ukroboronprom") signed a contract with US Cargo Systems from the United States to carry out development work on the topic: "Development of technical requirements for the system of loading, unloading and airborne cargo airborne An-178-100R" , the Ukrainian portal Defense Express notes.

It should be noted that US Cargo Systems has been developing and manufacturing various systems for military aircraft and helicopters for 40 years. This American company has created solutions for the transport companies Airbus A400M Atlas, Kawasaki C-2, Alenia C-27J Spartan and Lockheed C-130 Hercules.



The contract between the Ukrainian aircraft manufacturer and US Cargo Systems was signed on December 24, 2020. However, the information became available to the public only on January 19, 2021, when it was published on the ProZorro public procurement site.

According to the document, the cost of the work is $ 350 thousand, the term for the development work is 150 calendar days.

At the same time, on December 22, Antonov State Enterprise signed a contract with the American company Breeze-Eastern LLC for the supply of two HS-5100 winch systems for a total of $ 455 thousand.

At present, the Ukrainian enterprise is completing the construction of the first An-178-100R under a contract with the Peruvian police. In addition, on December 29, the Antonov State Enterprise and the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense signed a four-year contract for the construction of three An-178-100Rs for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the publication from Ukraine summed up.

Note that in the opinion of Ukrainian commentators, the Antonov State Enterprise signed a complete inability to create the above aircraft without cooperation with other countries. Publicized "Import substitution" it turned out to be only a replacement of Russian developments with American ones, and there were no new Ukrainian ones.

    Although the jingo-patriotic version attracts everyone more, most likely we are talking about the desire to sell the aircraft in Western markets, which can really be facilitated by the unification of handling equipment with the aircraft models available there.

      And by the way, your unfounded chatter has already gotten. Provide evidence of the "bending" of our aircraft industry.
      The country makes excellent military aircraft. Restores the production of jet and turboprop passenger aircraft. Since the start of production of PD-14 engines, Russia is the ONLY country in the world that produces turbofan engines of the 5th generation FULLY on its own.
      And then, some kind of misunderstanding, he broadcasts about the collapse of our aircraft industry. China dreams of such a "bend".

        In addition to the beautiful, you also need a circulation.
        At the peak of demand, the Ministry of Defense purchased up to 100 combat aircraft a year, but today this figure ranges from 50 to 60 units. Borisov also explained: “We bought 80–90 helicopters each, and now we have 30–40. Not necessary. The park has been renewed. Enterprises will serve them, support the life cycle, but this is not a bulk purchase. The same situation will occur with other types of weapons. " Overall, production in high-tech industries (including spaceships and intercontinental rockets) fell 13,5% in 2018 after two years of growth. In January-February of this year, aircraft production fell by 48% compared to the same period last year.
        Super Jet riveted, but everyone refuses it. It turns out that you also need to be able to supply spare parts on time and in the right quantity.
        In short, as many good ones as you like. And we compete over the hill.

                  They won't buy. Not for that they ruined production (including the aviation industry) in the post-Soviet space.
                  Ukraine has already tried, naively, to participate in a tender for a medium-sized transport vehicle for NATO. They retroactively revised the TK so that An did not pass, and then Airbus quickly made a copy of Antonov. But already myself.

                      So this is a new plane. They have neither documents nor a living aircraft on hand. And PD 14 is the best in the world today. And Russia is the only one that can make such an engine entirely at home.

                Well, your plant will bend to the production of titanium. Don't sell.
                On closer examination of the issue, as always, it turns out that the Russian Federation is far from the Navel of the Earth in the Titan market.
                The leading manufacturing country is China. The country has the maximum reserves of titanium ores. Of the 18 reputed titanium sponge factories, 9 are located in China.
                The second place is occupied by Japan. It is interesting that in the country only 2 – 3% of metal is spent on the aerospace sector, and the rest is used in the chemical industry.
                The third place in the world in the production of titanium is held by Russia and its many factories. Then follows Kazakhstan.
                The USA is the next producer country in the list, consumes titanium in the traditional way: 60–75% of titanium is used by the aerospace industry.
                So the boycott of the Russian Federation to the United States on titanium will only clear the way for competitors.

                  The rest can only make titanium as a raw material.
                  If you block the titanium on the 737, they will take on the rest of the planes, like cute ones. And Airbus will clap its hands for joy - less competitor.
