oh and welcome to technology as the weather in moscow has already taken a turn for the worse the team and i pads are swimsuits and headed down to the black sea city of. it is it just so happens for four days at the beginning of september the quiet resort town is transformed into the center of russian maritime aviation journalists and spectators alike flock to the night so title international exhibition of hydro aviation probably the biggest crowd pleasers for the acrobatic air shows from the country's top flight nieces the russian knights and swiss

festivities with high speed fly overs and there were government officials on hand to open the exhibition as well as stress the industry's importance to the economy. the largest crowds came out to see scream overhead the real site to see was closer to the water surface. name implies the craft on display needed some exposed. to take part. however there was more than just a feast for the. there were some food for thought as well scientists and engineers got together to announce discuss and probably argue about the latest trends in developments in the industry. also taking advantage of the spotlight of international companies to make a splash here in russia for example this roughly one hundred twenty five thousand dollar water pack made in germany could be tried for about five hundred bucks for ten minutes but the most practical of these four designs seem to be the sea legs. with. retractable wheels this new zealand creation is the easiest way to get

a boat in out of the water that i've ever seen and it's no slouch either when it's in the water top speeds of around eighty kilometers an hour but most spectators came to see the pride and joy of russian engineering. one of the biggest stars here this show is going to be two hundred years of help russian emergency services help say was here and abroad despite that engineers of work continuously improving modernize the system so that the new us models are better than ever and the plane was designed to fulfill a number of specialized roles search and rescue cargo and passenger transit as well as ambulance duties but it's got the most attention for its firefighting configuration washing in action from the ground is one thing but to really appreciate the raw power of it you want to check it out from the inside so with that in mind. russia's emergency services organized a little test flight to show journos like me what it's like onboard knowing far

from the best flyer so following warnings about what lay ahead needless to say i got a little nervous. with. specialized design. something. potentially lifesaving. it's got a range of thirty six hundred kilometers. a thousand meters and crews get over seven hundred kilometers an hour though unlike the vast majority of blazed around the globe this purpose built to bring the.

but only recently. have.

been very clear. they do need to. fuel a plane that. can actually do two hundred. and complications in. training and pass additional tests. simulators as they hone their skills in order to be prepared for the first time they take a real plane. to take. into eight separate chambers.

back into doing for. how much they. are. there to. in addition to the. firefighting craft is filled with. power. over. the water only reaches certain to make sure the plane is balanced maneuverable. forty meters above the ground so the water is an.

advanced electronics help make a lot easier bury of two hundred. and using. game day to share the plane. turned to the institute of aircraft equipment. was designed especially. in six full. screens display information about the flight. also have special firefighting equipment. you can see a display that provides information reminds the pilots about the current state. of . the show how much. the exact amount of water. to be

taken on board depends on how much fuel the plane has in its tanks if the fuel tanks a full there's no way you can fill up oh i hate water tanks the plane simply can't carry. it tells him how much water he can screw up by some the amounts of fuel already. with a host of other nations reportedly interested in buying hundreds the developers at the institute of aircraft equipment have had to make modifications so that their products meet russian european and u.s. standards and could also operate alongside foreign made equipment but in addition to those more mundane changes we've also been working on a host of new features that will make the very latest planes better than ever. in addition to improving the avionics we're also working to add new capabilities as well as expand the plane's functionality. we have now installed indicators on the windshield we've developed special thermal imaging equipment that has been

seamlessly integrated with the other existing systems on the aircraft all these will help make the use of our plane more effective. even though eight of the nine ve to hundreds out there was russia given its capabilities in times of need the plane has been called into action by a host of other countries russia's emergency services and when to head to italy greece serbian israel successful demonstration of its flame. more and more governments are taking a closer look at the russian made plain it could be just one minute of california needs summer wildfires.

clothes. while they're made of instead lay down here at water's edge where air shows attract thousands of spectators a day in reality many participants are here to improve their bottom line in the pavilion scattered throughout the territory companies are using this unique gathering to find new partners as well sign important deals. there are more than one hundred ninety participants showing what they've got to offer the exhibition basically if there was a product that could be incorporated into a plane or a. ship there was

a company promoting. the biggest players to make sure that nobody from. the industry there were some hyping future projects to take. the next level of the business side branding choppers on the way to china following the deal between helicopters of russia and technology. billion dollars worth of contracts were signed. by all the different designs and solutions that ship engineers have come up with over the years all strive for what seems to be the same thing just by taking these different models there's any number of ways to get there. throughout history ship designers have usually had one goal in mind that is to make their craft go faster over they've always been limited by water resistance it seems of cool but the faster a ship goes the more stronger the forces of drag work against the vessel as a result of top speed is dependent on how much of the ship interact with the outer

so as a rule of thumb submarines topped out at about fifty to sixty knots similarly traditional ships with part of the whole submerged can't do more than seventy five knots the key then to truly high speed ships lies in getting the holes right now. to achieve this there have been three main schools of thought i suppose which allow the whole to see above the water covered just above the surface on a pocket of air and ground effect that are more like planes that fly just metres above the water. and in terms of pure speed. in the so-called. top four hundred kilometers an hour. named after western intelligence analysts spotted on the caspian sea. possible for ships the. ground effect. including a few with military. terms

of. design. but he. was busy developing the world's very first hovercraft. he built.

the city his home. traditional. traffic. there's just nothing quite like it.

is its ability to operate all year around. three hundred sixty five days a year. to displacing ships that can only operates when the water is free from ice. before maneuverability does not require expensive pieces of infrastructure. to make the company's. trying to improve existing. fleet. as.

they were. able to get this result because of calculations which helped us come up with the optimal parameters both in terms of stability and control of the vessel. first glance at a photo of a design six to the basics of traditional ships of this kind there's a turbo prop at the forward thrust. underneath. the air through bags that wrap around the perimeter of the vessel as that escapes through. creating the momentum curtain under the whole building up the pressure needed to keep it hovering on the other hand as fitted to inflatable tubes along side. of the keel. chambers underneath with suitable pressure begins to escape under the tube. forcing the craft upwards the top two is divided into five sections

to make sure the craft continues to function even in the case of puncture. unlike with other types. is ready to go at any moment of the banks in the skanks. that greatly improve its gliding characteristics it can move over water or snow with the same amount of. main edge over the more conventional kind of. by maintaining contact with the surface we have achieved excellent maneuverability as well as steady motion. and. that's important because handling is a big deal for the craft that hover so there's minimal if any contact the ground. is significantly trickier than in other types of transport for the help of an eclipse to be the design the captains on board can effectively decrease the air

pressure under the right and left side. which allows one side to drag and turn more sharply in that direction. higher above the water surface and there's another craft. floating effortlessly above the base seaplane to help show that size doesn't always matter and that these small flyers also have a role to play in their tiny. but if this plane was designed to be operated. under any circumstances if you landed on her water you can pull up to the shore just like in any boat here's the door that allows the pilot and passengers get out and if you open this up there's a pathway people walk along here and from this point the ladder can be extended down to the ground in any case you're you're already on dry land. now for me what helps at this aircraft apart from others is the simplicity of it it's propelled by two one hundred horsepower engines that.

blocks and still tubes around. this. issue. this will. take. for nose to tail to me twenty six measures about thirty four meters long with one hundred twenty five cubic metres of cargo space inside to get that big body off the ground is driven by a pair of gas turbo shaft engine has been each crank out more than eleven thousand horsepower the choppers designed to have five crew at the helm in the cockpit and one swing operator in theory many configurations are possible this big hole can accommodate eighty fully equipped paratroopers or sixty beds for a large scale medical evacuation. and it was pretty much.

up to three hundred. two hundred.

twenty six. different governments of. several different variations of the need to put together here.

first of all it's unique because it can lift heavy loads it's the world's most powerful helicopters have entered serial production it can lift up to twenty tons which is unique and something no other helicopter in the world can do it makes no sense to compare it to any foreign made ones like the chino for example and they're in different weight classes ours is more powerful it can lift heavy loads and on top of that it's fuel efficient. because it's repeatedly called to transport transport over the years it's told to run the. fuselage as well. or likely on the way with

a new variation the t two ready for production. the main difference from the original design is what we've managed to reach all of our time tested solutions and high level of reliability but we've also added innovative technologies of the twenty first century cutting edge of a new radio communication system and totally reworked electronics we also called the number of the crew members required while the mit sixty which you can see behind me is operated by four crew members then you. can be piloted by only two and it will still be able to complete all the same operations. so giving all shoppers in the meat twenty six family is a unique blamey which is also produced. to me. system
