welcome to technology update and welcome to marks the world famous moscow air show where the planet's premier aerospace pioneers have come to show off their latest high flying hard to find water to dream for the best and the best to soar above the rest and the legendary coastie airfield in suburban moscow the very place named after an early russian aerodynamics genius this year with a tense time around for this festival flight since it started nine hundred eighty three with over eight hundred companies representing thirty countries the biggest draw for the year shows more than half a million guests will surely be in flight action movie business will also want to build racking up some ten billion dollars in deals even with all the international big shots bringing their wares russia's open secret made the biggest book is this to hoist cockfights the fifty finally broke out from behind the closed doors covering its development fly for crowds in cameras for the first time it's

a fifth generation stealth fighter jet propelled russia's air force deep into the twenty first century each maxis new headlines and highlights like this to hoist superjet in two thousand and nine to two thousand and eleven is already a new decade with new projects like a whole batch of in your shin cargo and passenger jets in russia's civil aviation pipeline. undoubtedly the most notable newcomer is here could and see twenty one with a full scale cabin model on display for the very first time its final boarding call for a glimpse to the future of this short and mid range commercial one. the single aisle narrow body can see twenty one is actually an emerging family two hundred three hundred and four hundred modifications forthcoming to be capable of transporting anywhere from one fifty to over two hundred passengers per flight at a range starting at thirty five hundred to five thousand kilometers potentially up to seven thousand in a future cabin designs are easily transformable to increase comfort capacity to

total order to make these planes and to internationally competitive aircraft rests on the shoulders of the. corporation on the strength of over seventy five years at its factory in the siberian city of you could see the company hopes not only to bring in reinforcements for the aging domestic tuple f one five four fleets but also challenge the dominance of giants boeing and airbus in this market segment thankfully they're not starting from square one with a steady flow of skilled scientists and engineers from russian aerospace schools making the project all the more promising. we're designing this plane with a wide range of international partners inside russia this means working with research institutes for every one hundred dynamics aviation materials and aviation technologies plus the state institute of aviation systems is helping design the airplanes digital components for a walk before you see twenty one will be offered with engine options either present with these p.w. fourteen hundred g. or the specially designed new p.t. for keep a project of russia's hobby if you get it down tusk is to provide the advantage of

cheaper engines without compromising performance parameters and available resources most importantly in terms of the lifecycle cost as compared to our competitors abroad rather than the it's important to point out that we're regarding this engine as the platform on the basis of which engines will be designed for the home line of these airplanes to p.t. fourteen is projected to meet and exceed international standards on fuel consumption emissions and noise pollution new engines are restored but they aren't the only innovative rethink for the future could jets. are leaving aerodynamics in situ soggy made a crucial contribution to this project their experts produced a new concept for wing design it has an altogether new profile for supercritical airfoils all of their work helps greatly improve the plane's aerodynamics in addition to the super critical design high wing aspect ratio on a wide reaching airplane is

a further aerodynamic advantage but it's largely what the wings are made. they camps. visit to visit a you can see it compass it when books for the m c twenty one airliner it uses unique advanced technology what's called vacuum infusion in a joint project between the main design an aero composite and the sukhoi companies design bureau on the russian side as well as. the material supply side to it from the us these materials and technologies have made it possible to improve the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing reduce its weight and as a result increase the airplane's fuel efficiency by up to twelve percent of that. there are an awful lot of parts to fall into place for a passenger plane to break into the country commercial market but the m c twenty one is ari taking its first strides into a sunny future. board the prototype cabinet to moscow air show i could already get a feel for how a flight on the airliner might one day be automated latches open oversize luggage

bins spacious seats in both business and economy and of course a screening every seat. as passengers were most concerned with smooth sailing tourist destination enhanced by every available amenity the carriers are all about the bottom line three m. c. twenty one models allow for everything from spacious mixed class layouts to the tighter tour operator scheme that makes the most out of every last row in any combination airplanes will remain wider than traditional single aisle jets just enough extra aisle space to eliminate the annoying service cards squeezed by a dream scenario is time. from the flight deck pilots also enjoy every perk of twenty first century aviation with multi-functional they'll see how put panels to integrate the latest in digitize flight controls. those pilot wings thing runway obviously this model's not exactly air worthy but here could is playing for twenty

one by twenty four teams so there should be more progress to. ported the next three blocks this year's most triumphal entry went to the brand new long awaited seventy seven dreamliner from boeing which had just wrapped up test flights for u.s. federal aviation administration certification and its home base outside seattle washington with one of the nine trial seven eight seven straight up for a short getaway mox visitors got a glimpse of the latest widebody boeing billed as the company's most advanced most fuel efficient airplane ever and which russian flagship airlines float said to take twenty two of the new dreamliner. crews from faraway seattle a future customers a good preview of what the modern machine is capable of. it was a very intelligible easy flight we used a lot of the automation on the airplane to make the pilot work load always do little as possible. so the autopilot course was used all throughout the region is

just modern through those systems the airplane is equipped with c b l c a magic potion forty nine so for so we took advantage of all those things we didn't have to make the standard position reports on the h.f. radio airplanes system did those reports course so very very enjoyable plus russia was hardly a random choice for the dreamliner visit as moscow is home to boeing's biggest engineering office outside the u.s. the eleven hour time difference from the west coast headquarters to russia's capital the unfit company has around the clock engineering operations within aerospace tradition they grew up alongside and even at times ahead of the american and european schools russia provides of bridge school of specialists that was a big deal in developing the dreamliner the think about the russian contribution to this aero pray i think that i would say that materials and dynamics up

to maine air as well. the partnership in russia made it possible for me probably to say that this airplane wouldn't happen without our russian partners in terms of design russian engineers can lay claim to the nose cone structure good leads to seventy seven sky work they pitched in an electrical systems or conditioning they designed a crucial video of the wing that provides lift the pylon from the engines and even added some player to the passenger friendly interior. when it comes to similar airplanes there are parts and then there are parts and it's largely thanks to unique new components that boeing is promising a twenty percent bump in efficiency could help the dreamliner as operators cut two point four million dollars per plane per year this efficiency would be impossible without key parts like this body cord connecting the we need to fuselage made entirely of russian composite materials to source of these olympe ordinary materials this would all boeing

a joint venture between the aircraft company and via sim fuel will be smuggled producer of fully a quarter of the world's titanium it's it would elbowing in russia's speed last region the unique h.e.l. oyster card turned into the backbone of the seventy seven breakthroughs in material science achieved here are a major reason the world can expect a stronger more eco friendly airplanes in the coming years. we are no design in seven eight seven the schneid this and that's going to take a shadow this airplane which will be the leader will carry more passengers a two hundred eighty thousand has the longer distance that airplane. and to in service in two years and where there would be the design of this airplane would also paid a lot of attention to the other there were interest and pro shippey in moscow cold seven four seven there eight that brought that goes on in parallel with so it's seldom. the case and in flight this will continue at the work on the improvements

of this airplanes and i'm sure that there will be. and with projects including the small airplanes that the russian he has will continue to go boy. for now all eyes are on the upcoming commercial goal out of the first three miners due within the next month for delivery to japanese carrier a.n.e. and that's just the beginning boeing racked up over eight hundred sales for the new standard during jet before it even made its first test flight so expect them soon in airport near you not all of the newbies to box are commercial jetliners and for many the far flung sparsely populated russian regions bigger isn't necessarily better it's with an eye on regional small craft aviation it has been developed and it's already won attention and mocks for greater than its size the assembly lines it some more as a progress helped put the first soviet cost not seen orbit and propelled generations of the barren spacecraft skyward for more than a half century of its history so it's an auspicious starting place for what will be

the first post soviet small aircraft first serial production designed by engineers at moscow based technology it's intended to combine modern performance and avionics with a rugged all condition reliability needed to serve russia's regions. to the know how all that design is can be seen in several solutions employed on this airplane it is excellent ironic properties including the a full ensuring great performance even at low velocity its landing gear is very good and allows you to land the aircraft on subs and of their fields their craft withstand strong winds very will with the isometric engines also feel very good performance which is particularly important for multi engine aircraft and also is a significant advantage in china aircraft. before recent chokes flew in to take its place of the air show in moscow we had a chance to climb aboard for one of its certification testing flights in the western russian city of smiley.

conditions of the former military are puerto luxury as compared to the remote airstrips the research oak is built to access but it's a good base for monitoring and servicing the newborn aircraft while it gets its wings in the field it can take off and land from dirt lift off with one of its two engines disabled and provide crew and passengers with emergency oxygen if flight conditions demand a climb above thirty six hundred meters experience test pilot deem it a month ago and of which the light airplane around curves with performance parameters to establish these trial flights are no relaxing total jumps once it makes muster with russian aviation regulators the first batch are due for delivery to a flight school in lenin's hometown of the. really stands up for its modern flight control equipment which in practice and i was eric adam a students who have mastered this machine to transition easily to modern passenger jet liners. it's

good when research old hits the market it won't just be raising a new generation of skilled pilots it will also help revive an important each and sector that's suffered from post so be economic belt tightening and an aging fleet of light aircraft would reduce a choke and recent changes to airspace regulations the range and flexibility of multi-purpose and general aviation should be back on russia's enormous map. this excessiveness a choke and a potential for expansion in russia's small aircraft sector has drawn interest in the involvement of some of the country's biggest producers that includes the new makers of many millions and now work on a domestic legal tension. both at their moscow airshow display in their assembly lines salute is most distinguished for powering the skies bigger beasts in the soviet era there are fifteen three hundred push the record breaking mig twenty five interceptor unprecedented speeds in altitude today they're taking in repair.

as well as economic advantages resulting from the improved fuel consumption rates and enhanced engine power performance that it can use to determine proxy five hundred s. consists of the production gear attached to the propeller the combustor the compressor and in the rear the excess read your box what's called the gas generator comprises both combustor and compressor essentially the heart of the engine. the jets generator is the biggest piece yet produced in seleucid project for that is the choke turbo prop engine along with it they've developed a custom made experimental stand to confirm their balance for the appointed performance figures. since it is a choke is already flying on the check me walter m six zero one f. and might see a replacement from general electric t.v. five hundred s. meet specs to set it apart. here we join send you to engineers to fire up the gas generator for another round of tests like draw power is important but not the only

objective given recent shocks to me. you get stature a lighter less powerful engine it still has that thrust to provide the desired cruising speed in takeoff distance while guzzling less gas is a more profitable for you. sue for seventeen seems to be the engines lucky number projected to be seventy kilograms lighter than the walter model and you seventeen percent less fuel so it's still just figures the t.v. five hundred s. is shaping up to be a highly competitive engine for small turbo prop planes so few technical solutions have laid a good foundation for the development of a future engine right now we are talking about the gas generator so hopeful to complete development of a new engine by twenty twelve what it was from the outset we've been developing our engines to complete the old from technical for there is such a craft project it could be used into troll flights for example aerial monitoring on board areas for the emergencies ministry's risky fleet full medical aid

around. his own stable in some cases and airports have been built in places with complicated landscapes take for example hong kong where roughly one in every two hundred fifty landings and takeoffs is performed under house or just wind shear conditions airports a diffuser will be fully covered with advanced sensor equipment to map out when other hazards information that will help relieve congestion increase throughput a goldmine for the industry old school when sure detection systems rely on anemometer for simple wind gauges the lighter wind profiler three hundred by russian firms laser systems and aircraft engineering concern is ground based shooting laser beams skyward and then determining wind direction and speed by detecting the frequency of the backscatter light at least in principle one liner when profiler should give more detailed information over shorter distances crucial around airports and low flying aircraft in several anemometer spaced out around the

same territory another source of the task is actually quite simple our device here will now measure the wind profile at an altitude of three hundred meters in the vicinity you can see a tower with special platforms where wind gauges like the one i'm holding are installed. in most of us our goal is to prove that the measurements of our lead are wind profile or correspond to the measurements obtained through the sensors installed on this high meteorological tower. up against a whole host of spinning anemometers just one scanning module on the l w p three hundred is left to paint an equally accurate picture of the window over this kaluga region test site this states are high since the losing system may soon be consigned to the dustbin of aviation history the physical benefits of replacing the towers in

the already cluttered space around modern airports is obvious certain. missing the ground based lighter systems would also be less of a challenge but if the numbers don't back up the win profiling benefits clinic hours are better left in place fortunately the new technology for very perfectly and may soon be ready for full time action. conditions put on your person in the test of being completed successfully and most importantly in the near future we hope to get certified by the interstate aviation committee the organization that deals with frequent certification once you've got us our task is to provide this equipment for russians first we ensure detection system and install in vladivostok which will be hosting next year's major international summit was an obvious b. should be that we should ensure maximum flight safety for the high ranking castes and naturally all commercial passengers flying to and from vladivostok every day not finishing two thousand and eleven features more than ten american military aircraft something unthinkable in moscow when this airshow first opened nearly two

decades ago improve relations i think it least in forty two a multinational treaty and high flying surveillance technology this story starts in the darkest days of the cold war when an arms race and mutual suspicion held the world both east and west in a state of great tension moved by the constant threat of all out war in nuclear destruction and we're trying to do then you can believe this great fear of surprise attack so now our allies are still proposing inspection of all but america not of the rio grande. and all your. energy change oh are they. right and there's a. japanese eisenhower's main message at the geneva summit of nine hundred fifty five but soviet and western leaders failed to agree on a neutral inspection regime and the idea was put on ice for a generation it was reborn in one thousand nine hundred two however as the treaty

on the open skies the united states and russia were eventually joined by thirty two others. signatories to date they've completed more than eight hundred fly overs and generated both valuable data and up prices boost in mutual relations then to find thirty in the triple f one five four have carried out most of russia's flights to date but like their counterparts in other countries the plane thirty g.'s have to. be aeronautical and electronics we've been company vega is responsible for bringing russia's open skies surveillance capacity into the twenty first century camera and sensor equipment allowed with industry has to be fine tuned like maximum ground resolution for photo and video material strictly limited thirty centimeters. after years of work to get kenya mox two thousand and eleven ready to unveil their brainchild the first specifically built to believe two fourteen zero zero s. will be the most advanced aircraft in the history of the open skies tree. this beautiful aircraft is not simply the first plane in russia or any other treaty on

open skies countries that incorporates all types of equipment allowed for use on board it's also automated to a remarkably high level of the equipment is controlled electronically all the data displayed on the screen where they operate a monitor is them through a bit of. a standing by the forward equipment bay of the aircraft will tickle electronic equipment is in schools and while the tail compartment contains airborne ray does and the infrared camera the best place on board the plane is reserved for photo and video cameras because we expect them to give us the main bulk of information one fixed photo camera shoots directly below the a craft that one another one takes pan around the pitches plus two side view cameras and three video cameras all this photo and video surveillance equipment and eyeballs us to cover a very large stretch of land and gives us a detailed picture of the landscape the aircraft passes over a phone a camera has a separate all to go port protected by sliding doors that are designed to prevent the from sticking to the lenses during takeoff and landing generally speaking the

equipment. very reliable and fully automated. with the cameras and sensors installed in the plane's underbelly crewmen and women on the planes operated them right from that tiny camera with you to go live to fourteen zero wes's move to remote control and automation that's the mission commander the individual camera operators and host country observers all sit comfortably in the passenger cabin listening to food we're entering the compartment where the equipment operators six . of us will this is the key part of the plane because this is where we receive the desired information to go through you'll notice that there are two additional seats located behind each operate his agent which is there for the representatives of the country the plane is flying a. little slow but this is a necessary provision i'm good it's a size in constant control over the treaty flights in focus and here is the equipment that operates the infrared camera and the radio national some mention

that this is the first time in the history of the treaty on open skies that surveillance has been installed on board an aircraft from out of the truth live to fourteen zero zero s. is already flight worthy and ready to fill all its treaty obligations a second plane is on assembly lines set to join in the formal flights as soon as next year international observers who came to moscow agreed the plane is a big step to making sure this guy stayed open well into future it's the end of an airshow here in moscow and the end of an era for technology update i'm off to get one of these jets back to the states but the rest of the take up team will be back next month with more from the ever changing world of russian animation consume and enjoy the right. wealthy british science. sometimes.
