Vympel RVV-MD2 – Short Range Air-to-Air Missile With Inertial Control For Sukhoi Su-57 Felon

indomilitary| 04/08/2023

If the F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jets rely on the AIM-9X as a short-range air-to-air missile, then the Kremlin's stealth champion, Sukhoi Su-57 Felon also has a rival, namely the Vympel RVV-MD, an air-to-air missile. infrared guided short range (two band infrared seeker) housed in the weapon bay. And regarding the RVV-MD, there has been news recently that a new variant has been developed, codenamed RVV-MD2.

If the RVV-MD has been claimed as the latest air-to-air missile, then the RVV-MD2 is clearly even more powerful, and is referred to by global defense equipment observers as the 'Super Missile'. So what makes the RVV-MD2 worthy of being the new mainstay of the Su-57?

According to a report from Ria Novosti, disclosure about the development of the RVV-MD2 is being made by the Moscow-based JSC GosMKB Vympel which is designing the latest generation of air-to-air missiles. About RVV-MD2 was disclosed in an article published in the magazine “Arsenal of the Fatherland.”

The article asserts that Russia has achieved a significant five to ten year advantage over the United States in developing fifth-generation air-to-air missiles, which are currently in production.

The new RVV-MD2 is the successor to the RVV-MD short-range “air-to-air” missile. This new missile has several advantages that Russian media claim will be very effective and lethal in aerial warfare. Victor Murakhovsky, editor-in-chief of Arsenal of the Fatherland magazine and military expert, explained that the RVV-MD2 is the world's first short-range missile that incorporates an inertial control system.

This system is designed to control and stabilize the missile during autonomous flight. The inertial system operates on the principle of a missile independently determining its coordinates in space without relying on external targeting or signals. Sensors on the missile calculate its position based on previously known positions, enabling the missile to navigate and maneuver accurately in its flight trajectory.

The RVV-MD2 has a radio correction line that allows the aircraft to correct target coordinates. This improvement significantly increases the chances of successfully engaging and hitting enemy aircraft during combat.

Compared to the previous version, the RVV-MD2 now uses a multi-element multi-band infrared seeker with better immunity to jamming attempts. The advanced homing head enables the RVV-MD2 to engage targets effectively from all angles, including targets at the rear of the aircraft.

In other words, the RVV-MD2 can be launched forward, maneuver in the air, and successfully hit enemy aircraft following behind the Su-57, further increasing its combat capability. However, details about the planned integration of the missile into the Su-57 fleet and its overall production scale have yet to be announced.

using infrared guidance (two band infrared seekers) combined with gas/aerodynamic control, making this 106 kg missile able to pursue targets from various angles. Of the weight that reaches 106 kg, 8 kg of which are warheads.

The RVV-MD is not only designed to hit fighter jets, transport aircraft and helicopters, more than that, the RVV-MD was designed by the Vympel Design Bureau to destroy cruise missiles, it can even destroy targets that emit radiation on the surface, such as radar stations.

The missile, which is powered by a single-mode solid fuel rocket motor, can certainly be used in day and night conditions, and is equipped with anti-jamming technology.

RVV-MD is capable of traveling at Mach 2.5 speed, this missile can pursue a maximum target of 40 km, and is at least effectively fired from a distance of 300 meters. Regarding the launch height, the RVV-MD can be launched at altitudes ranging from 20 meters to 20,000 meters. The RVV-MD can operate effectively from any direction, day or night, in challenging electronic countermeasures (ECM) environments.

With the RVV-MD2 which brings these advanced features and improvements, it promises to increase the combat capability of the Su-57 fighter jet even further. (Glang Prime)

indomiliter | 04/08/2023

Bila jet tempur stealth F-22 Raptor dan F-35 Lightning II mengandalkan AIM-9X sebagai rudal udara ke udara jarak pendek, maka jawara stealth Kremlin, Sukhoi Su-57 Felon juga punya tandingannya, yakni Vympel RVV-MD, rudal udara ke udara jarak pendek berpemandu infrared (dua band infrared seeker) yang ditempatkan dalam weapon bay. Dan terkait RVV-MD, belum lama ada kabar bahwa telah dikembangkan varian barunya yang diberi kode RVV-MD2.

Bila RVV-MD sudah diklaim sebagai rudal udara ke udara mutakhir, maka RVV-MD2 jelas lebih hebat lagi, dan oleh para pengamat alutsista global disebut sebagai ‘Super Missile’. Lantas apa yang membuat RVV-MD2 layak menjadi andalan baru pada Su-57?

Menurut sebuah laporan dari Ria Novosti, pengungkapan tentang pengembangan RVV-MD2 tengah dilakukan oleh JSC GosMKB Vympel yang berbasis di Moskow dan tengah merancang rudal udara ke udara generasi terbaru. Tentang RVV-MD2 diungkapkan dalam sebuah artikel yang diterbitkan di majalah “Arsenal of the Fatherland.”

Artikel tersebut menegaskan bahwa Rusia telah mencapai keunggulan yang signifikan selama lima hingga sepuluh tahun dibandingkan Amerika Serikat dalam mengembangkan rudal udara-ke-udara generasi kelima, yang mana saat ini telah mencapai tahap produksi.

RVV-MD2 baru adalah penerus rudal “udara-ke-udara” jarak pendek RVV-MD. Rudal baru ini memiliki beberapa keunggulan yang diklaim media Rusia akan sangat efektif dan mematikan dalam peperangan udara. Victor Murakhovsky, pemimpin redaksi majalah “Arsenal of the Fatherland” dan pakar militer, menjelaskan bahwa RVV-MD2 adalah rudal jarak pendek pertama di dunia yang menggabungkan sistem kontrol inersia.

Sistem ini dirancang untuk mengontrol dan menstabilkan rudal selama penerbangan otonom. Sistem inersia beroperasi berdasarkan prinsip rudal yang secara mandiri menentukan koordinatnya di angkasa tanpa bergantung pada penanda (targeting) atau sinyal eksternal. Sensor pada rudal menghitung posisinya berdasarkan posisi yang diketahui sebelumnya, memungkinkan bagi rudal untuk menavigasi dan bermanuver secara akurat dalam lintasan penerbangannya.

RVV-MD2 memiliki garis koreksi radio yang memungkinkan pesawat memperbaiki koordinat target Peningkatan ini secara signifikan meningkatkan kemungkinan berhasil menyerang dan mengenai pesawat musuh selama pertempuran.

Dbandingkan versi sebelumnya, maka RVV-MD2 kini menggunakan infrared seeker multi-elemen multi-band dengan kekebalan terhadap upaya jammimg yang lebih baik. Dengan homing head canggih memungkinkan RVV-MD2 untuk menyerang target secara efektif dari semua sudut, termasuk sasaran di bagian belakang pesawat.

Dengan kata lain, RVV-MD2 dapat diluncurkan ke depan, bermanuver di udara, dan berhasil mengenai pesawat musuh yang mengikuti di belakang Su-57, yang selanjutnya meningkatkan kemampuan tempurnya. Namun, rincian tentang rencana integrasi rudal ke dalam armada Su-57 dan skala produksi keseluruhannya belum diumumkan.

mengadalkan pemandu infrared (dua band infrared seeker) yang dikombinasi dengan gas/aerodynamic control, menjadikan rudal 106 kg ini dapat mengejar sasaran dari beragam sudut. Dari bobot yang mencapai 106 kg, 8 kg di antaranya adalah hulu ledak.

RVV-MD bukan hanya dirancang untuk menghantam sasaran jet tempur, pesawat angkut dan helikopter, lebih dari itu, RVV-MD dirancang oleh Vympel Design Bureau untuk menghancurkan rudal jelajah, bahkan dapat pula menghancurkan sasaran yang memancarkan radiasi di permukaan, seperti stasiun radar.

Rudal yang ditenagai single-mode solid fuel rocket motor ini, dipastikan dapat digunakan dalam kondisi siang dan malam hari, serta telah dilengkapi teknologi anti jamming.

RVV-MD mampu melesat dengan keceatan Mach 2.5, rudal ini dapat mengejar sasaran maksimum sejauh 40 km, dan minimal efektif ditembakan dari jarak 300 meter. Soal ketinggian luncur, RVV-MD dapat diluncurkan di ketinggian mulai dari 20 meter sampai 20.000 meter. RVV-MD dapat beroperasi secara efektif dari segala arah, siang atau malam, di tengah lingkungan penanggulangan elektronik (ECM) yang menantang.

Dengan RVV-MD2 yang membawa fitur dan peningkatan canggih ini, maka menjanjikan peningkatan kemampuan tempur jet tempur Su-57 lebih jauh lagi. (Gilang Perdana)

Pakistan And Azerbaijan Join Kaan's (Turkish) Stealth Fighter Jet Program

Pakistan And Azerbaijan Join Kaan's (Turkish) Stealth Fighter Jet Program

indomilitary| 03/08/2023

Operating a fifth-generation fighter can be likened to a dream and a need. In fact, it's not enough for a country to just have a big budget to be able to buy stealth fighter jets like the F-35 Lightning II. Because it is full of sophisticated technology and is considered sensitive, there are sales restrictions that cannot be separated from political affairs. And when KAAN (formerly TF-X) was successfully launched by Turkey, it opened up opportunities for third world countries to later 'taste' the advantages of stealth fighter jets.

And regarding the development of KAAN produced by Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI), there are reports that Pakistan and Azerbaijan have joined Turkey's fifth-generation stealth fighter jet program.

On December 27 this year, it is planned that KAAN will fly for the first time with the support of artificial intelligence technology in it. Quoted from propakistani.pk, it is said that the KAAN development program has received significant support from Pakistan and Azerbaijan, which have officially joined the program, signifying a new era cooperation in the aviation sector.

Collaboration between Pakistan and Turkey was further strengthened by the signing of a contract between Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) Kamra and Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI). This agreement outlines the joint development of various airworthy equipment, strengthens ties and encourages the exchange of technological know-how between the two countries.

The entry of Pakistan and Azerbaijan into the KAAN stealth aircraft project has opened up new possibilities for sharing expertise and resources. As part of the collaboration, several KAAN subsystems will be manufactured in Pakistan, leading to the establishment of a joint production line. This strategic move not only reduces the overall financial burden, but can also increase production, ensuring the timely completion of the aircraft.

The KAAN stealth fighter jet is expected to be a game-changer, with advanced stealth capabilities that will allow it to operate undetected in hostile airspace. Its AI amalgamation adds another dimension to its already impressive features, making it a formidable force in modern aerial warfare.

KAAN, originally planned to make its maiden flight with Turkish engines in 2028, with its first flight on 27 December 2023, will exceed expectations by reaching the milestone ahead of schedule. Development of KAAN began in 2010, although there were some setbacks and delays along the way. However, the development process rapidly accelerated in 2019, especially when Turkey was kicked out by the US from the F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jet program.

With a wingspan of around 21 meters, the aircraft boasts impressive performance capabilities, being able to reach a maximum speed of Mach 1.8 thanks to its twin engines, each developing 29,000 pounds (13,000 kg) of thrust.

Recent KAAN photos show exhaust nozzles similar to those found on a different General Electric F110 model. SavunmaSanayiST notes that the aircraft moved independently during the most recent taxii test, indicating that the General Electric F110 engine was successfully integrated.

As a fifth-generation fighter, the KAAN was carefully developed by TAI with the primary aim of replacing Turkey's aging F-16 fleet, demonstrating Turkey's commitment to advancing its air defense capabilities. (Glang Prime)

Pakistan Dan Azerbaijan Bergabung Dalam Program Jet Tempur Stealth (Turki) KAAN

indomiliter | 03/08/2023

Mengoperasikan pesawat tempur generasi kelima bisa diibaratkan antara idaman dan kebutuhan. Faktanya, suatu negara tidak cukup hanya punya anggaran besar untuk bisa membeli jet tempur stealth seperti F-35 Lightning II. Lantaran sarat teknologi canggih dan dinilai sensitif, maka ada pembatasan penjualan yang tak bisa dilepaskan dari urusan politik. Dan ketika KAAN (d/h TF-X) sukses diluncurkan oleh Turki, maka terbuka peluang bagi negara dunia ketiga untuk kelak ‘mencicipi’ keunggulan jet tempur stealth.

Dan terkait pengembangan KAAN yang diproduksi Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI), ada kabar bahwa Pakistan dan Azerbaijan telah bergabung dalam program jet tempur stealth generasi kelima Turki.

Pada 27 Desember tahun ini, rencananya KAAN akan terbang perdana dengan dukungan teknologi kecerdasan buatan di dalamnya.Dikutip dari propakistani.pk, disebut bahwa program pengembangan KAAN mendapat dukungan signifikan dari Pakistan dan Azerbaijan, yang secara resmi telah bergabung dalam program tersebut, menandakan era baru kerja sama di sektor penerbangan.

Kolaborasi antara Pakistan dan Turki semakin diperkuat dengan penandatanganan kontrak antara Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) Kamra dan Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI). Perjanjian ini menguraikan pengembangan bersama berbagai airworthy equipment, memperkuat ikatan dan mendorong pertukaran pengetahuan teknologi antara kedua negara.

Masuknya Pakistan dan Azerbaijan dalam proyek pesawat siluman KAAN telah membuka kemungkinan baru untuk berbagi keahlian dan sumber daya. Sebagai bagian dari kolaborasi, beberapa subsistem KAAN akan diproduksi di Pakistan, yang mengarah pada pembentukan jalur produksi bersama. Langkah strategis ini tidak hanya mengurangi beban keuangan secara keseluruhan, tetapi juga dapat meningkatkan produksi, memastikan penyelesaian pesawat tepat waktu.

Jet tempur stealth KAAN diharapkan menjadi game-changer, dengan kemampuan siluman canggih yang memungkinkannya beroperasi tanpa terdeteksi di wilayah udara yang bermusuhan. Penggabungan AI-nya menambah dimensi lain pada fitur-fiturnya yang sudah mengesankan, menjadikannya kekuatan yang tangguh dalam peperangan udara modern.

KAAN, awalnya direncanakan untuk melakukan penerbangan perdananya dengan mesin Turki pada tahun 2028, dengan kabar terbang perdana pada 27 Desember 2023, maka akan melampaui ekspektasi dengan mencapai tonggak sejarah lebih cepat dari jadwal. Pengembangan KAAN dimulai pada tahun 2010, meskipun ada beberapa kemunduran dan penundaan di sepanjang jalan. Namun, proses pengembangan dengan cepat meningkat pada 2019, terutama ketika Turki didepak oleh AS dari program jet tempur stealth F-35 Lightning II.

Dengan lebar sayap sekitar 21 meter, pesawat ini menawarkan kemampuan kinerja yang mengesankan, mampu mencapai kecepatan maksimum Mach 1,8 berkat mesin kembarnya, masing-masing menghasilkan daya dorong 29.000 pound (13.000 kg).

Foto KAAN terbaru memperlihatkan nozel knalpot yang serupa dengan yang ditemukan pada model General Electric F110 yang berbeda. SavunmaSanayiST mencatat bahwa pesawat bergerak secara independen selama uji taxii terbaru, menunjukkan bahwa mesin General Electric F110 berhasil diintegrasikan.

Sebagai pesawat tempur generasi kelima, KAAN dikembangkan dengan cermat oleh TAI dengan tujuan utama menggantikan armada F-16 Turki yang sudah tua, menunjukkan komitmen Turki untuk memajukan kemampuan pertahanan udaranya. (Gilang Perdana)

For the First Time, Stealth Fighter Sukhoi Su-57 Felon Successfully Dest...

For the First Time, Stealth Fighter Sukhoi Su-57 Felon Shoots Down Opponent Fighter.

Tuesday, 1-11-2022.

Since flying for the first time on January 29, 2010 and entering the service of the Russian Air Force at the end of 2020, netizens have many questions, when will the Sukhoi Su-57 Felon stealth fighter jet compete in real air-to-air combat, to the point of bringing down the opponent's aircraft?

So far, the Su-57 has been involved in Russia's military operations in Syria, and was said to have been deployed on a limited basis in the early stages of Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February. However, the Su-57 in military operations is deployed for air-to-surface missions, which means that it does not face off against opposing fighter jets.

Quoted from eurasiantimes.com (19/10/2022), it was mentioned for the first time that Russia's fifth-generation fighter jet, the Su-57, managed to bring down an opponent's fighter jet, namely the target of a Su-27 fighter jet belonging to the Ukrainian Air Force. The claim, originating from svpressa.ru, reveals that the Ukrainian Su-27 was shot down using a hypersonic long-range air-to-air missile, the Vympel R-37M. Still from the same source, it is said that the Su-27 was at an altitude to intercept the Russian kamikaze drone Geran-2 (Shaded-136).

According to the report, the Su-57 was most likely responsible for firing the missile, as US Air Force AWACS patrolling in Poland and Romania in 24/7 mode were unable to detect it.

Unfortunately, the location and date of the incident is not stated. For the record, the R-37M missile can also be launched from MiG-31BM and Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jets. It was previously widely reported that the MiG-31BM used these missiles to strike targets in Ukraine. Samuel Ramani, foreign and defense policy expert, tweeted that a Russian MiG-31 armed with R-37M missiles and Kinzhal hypersonic missiles recently landed in Belarus.

Meanwhile, Russian media claimed that the Russian Air Force used a new technique to locate Ukrainian air defense installations. In this tactic, Russian warplanes fire R-37M (RVV-BD) missiles in anticipation of rocket or missile attacks from Ukrainian air defense systems. Thus, the counterattack of the Ukrainian troops revealed their position.

AWACS Killer

The R-37 missile itself is not very recent, lined up as the Very Long Range Missile, the R-37 design has been first designed since the early 1980s, and was first known to exist in 1989.

With a weight of up to 600 kg and a firing range of up to 398 km, this super long-range air-to-air missile is prepared by Russia (d/h – Soviet Union) as a competitor to the United States' AIM-54 Phoenix. Even the R-37's glide speed reaches Mach 6, while the famous AIM-54 Phoenix is ??released from the F-14 Tomcat, the maximum speed is Mach 5.

With a shooting range beyond visual range, as well as super speed, of course this missile target is very chosen and strategic. For example, the target of the R-37 is the AWACS (Airborne Warning And Control System) reconnaissance aircraft and C4ISTAR capable aircraft.

The latest variant, called the R-37M, can track targets with semi-active and active radar homing. Targets can also dauber from an altitude of 15 to 25,000 meters.

Compared to the first generation R-37 which reached a weight of 600 kg, the R-37M weight can be reduced to 510 kg. The warhead is HE (High Explosive) fragmented with a weight of 60 kg, although it doesn't hit the target directly, the explosion effect is believed to be able to destroy AWACS. Speed ??is maintained at Mach 6 or 7,350 km / h. (Prime Gilang)

Defense Minister Prabowo Hopes In the Next 5 Years, Indonesia Can Build Its Own Fighter Jet.

Thursday, 27-10-2022.

Minister of Defense (Menhan) Prabowo Subianto hopes that, in the next five years, Indonesia can make its own fighter jets.

Prabowo admits that at this time, Indonesia has not been able to manufacture it independently because of the difficulty of obtaining key technology for fighter aircraft. However, Prabowo is optimistic that one day, Indonesia will be able to build its own fighter aircraft.

"That's why we cooperate with Korea, we will cooperate with several other countries. We can hope that in five years we can have fighters (fighter jets) made in Indonesia quite well," Prabowo said at the Ministry of Defense (Kemenhan) Office, Jakarta, Thursday (27/10/2022).

In line with that, Prabowo reminded policy makers to believe in the abilities of the nation's children.

According to him, the ability of the nation's children is actually not inferior to the ability of other countries.

However, Prabowo admits to being surprised because some parties are often more amazed by things that smell foreign.

"Our abilities are not bad, sometimes we are always amazed by everything that is all foreign, even though our manufacture is also okay. Maybe not as cool as it looks," he explained.

Therefore, Prabowo believes that in the next five years there will be a rapid increase made by the nation's children for the country.

"I think 3 to 5 years we will see a better improvement in the abilities of our children," he added. (Achmad Nasrudin Yahya)
