hello and welcome to this month's special edition of technology updates where we look to the skies to see the peak of russian innovation on today's show we kept a glimpse of bush's latest stealth fighter. we find out that's a cross between a battery and a combustion engine isn't just a load of. up and down the ground we learned about the mysterious night. but first let's take a look at some of the highlights of this month's show. the international aviation and space show all marks is the highlights of the calendar not just for aviation enthusiasts but for anyone who enjoys a good day out there shows started off in one nine hundred ninety three when the

focus was mainly on entertainment since then it's evolved into an important business event given the high flies of the aviation industry a chance to sell their wares this year marks smushed its own attendance record with over one hundred fifty thousand people braving the elements to visit the event in just one day business also proved with companies signing agreements and contracts with twenty one point two billion dollars which is significantly more than last time believing this has wider implications than just the aviation industry. the aircraft manufacturing industry always drives innovation and throughout the world because to be competitive in this industry you have to excel in a number of different areas that's why this industry receives so much investment but some people say that for every ruble invested in new technologies for aircraft manufacturing you get a return of seven rubles because of the positive effect this provides for all.

industries. i'm sure that return on investment was the last thing on people's mind when the flight program started. the demonstrations give money fighters the opportunity to show off exactly what they can do this is especially important for kraft is the perfect place for defense organizations to cooperate with. the most efficient. operation. is testament to the. difficult. to. put mike's isn't just to selling military hardware. to civil helicopter builds on the legacy. and is about thirty percent cheaper than anything else in the market under peaceful international cooperation doesn't company russian helicopters presented the first

prototype of his luxurious k. sixty two passenger helicopter the helicopter is fitted with french engines marking the first time the company has teamed up with a european partner is still undergoing. received a number of orders. would be complete without a display from the. teams that have been showing off their precise flying skills together for over ten years only ones with some slick moves see the grace and agility of passenger jets as they performed a seemingly impossible need. to cure anyone of their fear of flying you'd find many people willing to take. you'd be forgiven for thinking that all the action was taking place outside as well as providing shelter from the inclement weather the pavilions also gave visits is of all ages and insights into the height. technology

that keeps the aircraft in the skies. also seized the opportunity to show the future of aviation with twenty one to medium range jets he's due to hit the market in two thousand and seventeen it will be built with confidence and materials and economic engines which make you greener well then why did nobody makes it more comfortable for those inside. it is the first russian civil aircraft to be built fully around the open architecture principle this means that components and systems can simply be swapped out if they need repairing or grading. the company also demonstrated the simulator for the aircraft the fixed space devices emulates the controls and avionics of the m s twenty one and can also be used to test out. to the plane. it was designed by russia c k t company and dutch company sim industries and will also be used for pilot training program. and talking of training pilots

thirty is capable of simulating the feel of flying fourth and fifth generation jets it is also extremely difficult to get into a flat spin but if the rookie pilot somehow manages it will take over and save the day it is even capable of landing on strips it's not surprising it was voted the best train at the paris air show this year. max isn't just a place to showcase aircraft and one of the highlights of the show this year was this prototype odyssey and. is part of a next generation space ship that will serve the international space station and possibly even go beyond this space ship will be bigger than the so you ships making it more comfortable for the cosmonauts inside. this is such a complex piece of technology there are only two countries in the world that are capable of producing it and even they do this. every fifteen years we do our best to keep all the equipment. will. room for the cosmonauts so they can

stand here without having to do this in poland for example similar vehicles produced in the us don't have enough room to stand up. this is a multi purpose they can be used for taking cosmonauts into orbit and for traveling to the moon. all of the aircraft. every want to see up close with the exception of one because the stealthy design of this next jets makes it very hard. the park forty fifty is bush's fifth generation fighter the supersonic jet made its second appearance at the max and show but this was the first time that the media were able to get a slightly closer look at the aircraft is radically different from its predecessors as well as being faster more intelligent and maneuverable scientists have worked hard to make it a stealthy as possible the design which is part of the united craft corporation works very closely with the various research centers of the russian academy of

sciences for example we've been working together on this fifth generation fighter jets. and i believe to something that is on a par with the best models in this class worldwide the part. of the fusion between theoretical science and practical application and one of only a few fifth generation fight is in the world. we've got competition from china and japan has also announced that it's going to develop its own fifth generation fighter but so far neither china nor japan have presented any working prototypes of their aircraft so the only objects that can be compared to the t. fifty is the f. twenty two generally speaking these two planes have a lot in common but only time will show in what way one is better than the other. the park is a stealth aircraft particularly attention has been paid to the leading edge of the wings which has been staggered the weapons base which have been concealed the jet turbine. plates which have been covered and the air intake which is shaped and

those are just the bits we can see with the naked eye the plane must also be shielded from external interference whilst also emitting signals of its own without being detected with military planes being so well protected against electronic interference i bet the pilots don't have to turn off their mobile phones when taking off and landing military conflicts often act as a catalyst for scientific advancement this is especially true of the radar which first proved itself as a viable means of defense at the end of the second world war since then radar and plane developers have been trying to outmaneuver each other to get the upper hand on the battlefield a simple radar system is made up of a transmitter under receiver the transmitter emits radio waves which bounce off an object such as this aircraft and are picked up by the receiver military radars control to be split into two types detection and search and targeting radar detection in scituate dostana why the area once every fifteen to thirty seconds and operates on long radio waves they are used for early warning systems and

surveillance targeting radars on the other hand a much narrower area several times a second and a use for missile guidance systems and targets tracking but it's not all doom and gloom for the aca. there are number of ways of playing. a small. bird disappear altogether but it's not as easy as you might think a pilot can hold the ground's high the plane to naturally. this makes find much more dangerous the shape of the plane can also be discussed on the radio waves in any direction apart from but the receiver this can seriously to seniors ability and speed however there is another way force is not simple as just changing the color of the aircraft because it has to be closely redesigned on a black yellow level boeing pay attention along here is located in the company not only conducts research into composite materials and nano coatings but also focuses on the real life application in the aviation industry come. materials such as

carbon fiber often numerous benefits over those traditionally used in aircraft and that's why the pot is full of them to make an aircraft of carbon fiber a mold must first be made the company uses milling machines carefully to cook the mold of what it is then finished by hand before being sent on to the next stage play is a fiberglass and carbon fiber placed on the mold which is then sealed in a vacuum bag she was attached to the bag. and infused the mold with resin the seal is constantly checked to make sure there are no use perfections in the finished product. about seventy or eighty percent of the fighter jets body is made of compazine material namely carbon fiber without working on modifying the composite materials with carbon in. it which will help further improve the jury ability of the components. at speeds of over one thousand kilometers per hour it's all to do for. the plane to move as high as speeds.

carbon fiber composite components also significantly decrease the visibility of the plane making it. and russia has been quite successful in supplying this. as well as manufacturing composite aircraft components the company also specializes in producing multi-functional nano coatings a number of institutes around russia have been developing nano coatings for aircraft was unfortunately they didn't meet the high standards required for the latest jets. any cost must protect the pilot from electromagnetic radiation the sun should not contribute to the plane's radar profile and most of course be as transparent as possible. to develop one that meets all of these requirements. and they supplied in a special vacuum chamber. the company coating is made up of tin oxide and gold and

is applied in a process known as sputtering layers of indian tin oxide and gold are applied in turns using an ionization process to build up a coating just spend nanometers thick but i'm afraid that's all we can say the exact makeup of the coating is a secret. makes the surface forty to sixty percent less detectable by radar. in five to six times more resistant to abrasion. this provides a huge advantage in the field. also much more transparent which reduces reflection from inside the cockpit enabling the pilot to see the runway lights more clearly. fortunately we weren't allowed to film how the coatings are applied to the other aircraft components either. dissimilar to painting a large civil airliner. contain ferromagnetic nano particles which are known for

their radar absorbent properties on just applied evenly all over the plane. different radar coatings are applied to different parts of the plane invariant thicknesses. tension to microscopic detail can give potentially huge benefits in the flight in stealth characteristics of the aircraft. design a fourth generation fighter using almost fifty generation technology. the size of a football the t fifty shows. the size of a tennis ball so you can see the progress that we've made of. monster composition components have been produced on a nano coatings applied their radar signature is tested in the anechoic. chamber at the institute of theoretical and applied electrodynamics here in moscow the chamber is completely covered in re dobs over terril the height of the sponge pyramids corresponds with the frequency of. electromagnetic radiation climate inside the

train these controls and all the equipment is built on the same foundation to prevent any vibrations from affecting the readings and this is how it works. the electromagnetic wave transceivers are located on the bottom of the chamber the waves are directed towards the mirror which conversely to plane waves simulation the effects long distances have on de da signals the radar behind the snows condit's takes which signals are let through the rest are scattered about the room and some are reflected back to the mirror and pizza by the transceiver which gives an indication of the noses radon profile. it's impossible to make the effect if surface of a plane equals zero or it's invisible what is possible is to minimize the distance at which it is detected and that's the aim of stealth technology it would give the chamber is so sensitive that you can even measure the radar signature of a ball bearing with a diameter of just one millimeter this is partly thanks to the giants parabolic

mirror that has a position of thirty millions of a metre the star shapes reflects and distorted waves hitting the edge of the mirror it's awards the walls to avoid any erroneous reading this. the maiden flight of the first criticise the su twenty seven took place thirty years ago and the old dated versions will still be in service in thirty years time so we such attention to detail and high technology go into the stealthy part i'm sure this isn't the last we'll see of it either or is it. with supersonic stealth fighter jets and the it may seem like anything on the ground doesn't stand a chance but this next piece of equipment is a must. as major cities in the. military engagements are being carried out less and less on the battlefield and more and more on the electromagnetic spectrum. rockets jets and drones can devastate infrastructure troops and fleets from hundreds of miles. the way because of their radar location systems denying the

enemy while ensuring unimpeded friendly access to rates can seriously improve at defense ship losses can be hard to an aircraft losses compare it to still to six fold this is the role that. the russian word for the deadly night shade plants which has been used throughout history for its poisonous and hallucinogenic properties and is a fitting name for this mobile bay dodge. this is an old graded version of the system as is capable of jamming complex radio signals which is something we weren't able to do in the past also it is so effective that one new system can replace three old ones. through these money fight should bike funds which is part of radio electronic technologies it will expire receiving the enemy signal processing it and sending the exact same but much more powerful signal by its where it came from all in a matter of milliseconds this causes the enemy's radar screen to lights up with noise

leaving them unable to lock on to the targets the radio frequencies of friendly forces can be programmed in as well so they aren't affected the cross who could sue also has other advantages over the previous models. are able to get word sorts of massacre if you've noticed it assumes the necessary right away and not just any position using its laws and. also has a self leveling system the publisher of the properties will then the in tennis starts working on this station is fully functional and ready to detect. the system is capable of hiding areas of hundreds of kilometers square and make it appear as if atomic power stations ports contrib cons never even existed is can also use passive radar to triangulate the position of any bogeys without giving away its own position. also has another trick up its sleeve it can make false targets appear on the radar screen which not only confuse the enemy. but also

priests friendly forces is such an enigmatic ally on our site these planes don't stand a chance. that's just the end of the first so don't take off see you after the break . please. players play. live. live live. cross talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want. to live.

look it was terrible they come up very hard to make a plan to get on here there's a lot happening that has sat with the earthquake there are no plans let. alone what. the american. look look look. look. for the people.

who lead. more news today violence is once again flared up look these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. trying to corporations are all today led the mother. welcome back marx may have stolen the show this time let's take a quick look back at this month's all the tech news. bytes ministers from the seven

states participating in the east have projects met in france on the sixth of september which is based around the russian event it's the world's largest experimental fusion facility and has the potential to solve the world's energy problems during the meeting the ministers reaffirmed the importance all on the dedication of the project. the expo fifteen railway exhibition was held for the fourth time this month the international events led businesses demonstrate their latest trains rail cars and engineering equipment to potential buyers among the highlights was a model of a next generation metro jointly designed by siemens and washing machines the metro is more comfortable spacious quieter cheaper to run and easy to maintain and those currently in service so hopefully to make my commute in the morning a little less stressful push an astrophysicist. and alex a starter pinsky were awarded the gruber cosmology prize for their contributions to inflationary theory by predicting the period before the big bang theory is an

essential components to understanding the evolution and structure of the universe it explains why the universe you so uniform and galaxies come from. gave us significant bush to radio astronomy. number of different experiments followed including the one nine hundred ninety two. experiment. for which george smoot received the nobel prize. you know if this experiment proved that the universe has irregularities. in keeping with this month's aviation theme we travel to the quiet town of. to see a world where pot is lost up to five times longer and scientists play with planes to make our lives. on top in the long. haul some may already have come to china or go off on the swiss so migrating self but that doesn't mean that the scientists

have gone to hibernation. in fact it's the latest innovation is just about to take off here the institute of problems of chemical physics from the outside it may look like we're a group of boys with that choice but this was inside this plane that masses this is the first plane in russia to be powered soley by hydrogen fuel cells could fly for ninety minutes on a lithium polymer battery which may not seem that bad but now it's inside have been replaced they can stay in the air for almost eight hours. as well as being able to fly longer hydrogen fuel cells of other benefits over batteries or combustion engines they are quieter cooler cleaner and have a high energy conversion rates compared to botches their lights and have a longer operating life hydrogen is an extremely clean fuel as it's only a mission is water and it can even be produced using energy from the sun so having seen what secret to i was keen to find out more. of the research and development

that went into creating the fuel cells was carried out in this lab a fuel cell is like a cross between a battery and an engine they generate electricity like a battery but like an engine they require fuel which in this case is hydrogen. technology originate. worth fuel cells produced which were used in space the similar ones were used in submarines and are still in use to this very day so the initial technology was finalized and completed in its current form tween the one nine hundred seventy s. and nine hundred eighty three when you get a good there. a basic hydrogen fuel cell consists of approach an exchange membrane or electrolyte in the middle a catalyst on either side and i note and cathode and two graphite flow feel plates hydrogen flows on one side of the membrane and on the other the catalyst splits the hydrogen molecule into protons and electrons the protons can pass through the membrane of the electrons cons and have to pass through

a circuit which generates electricity. on the other side of the membrane the protons and electrons reacts with the oxygen from the air thanks to the other catalyst which generates water and heat these things fuel cells can be stacked to produce as much power as necessary. i doubt if the plane would get very far to be used to take graphite plates using hydrogen cars so the institute has managed to miniaturize the technology to such an extent that this block contains over one hundred fuel cells the flow fields that channel the gas saw etched into thin sheets of carbon in a slab and the finished fuel cells are tested in this machine so why did they decide to stick them in unmanned aircraft but there would be no firstly unmanned aircraft. secondly these devices are not very technically. but they require extremely accurate weight and i mentioned parameters the weight of this power source is one of its main benefits if we think of it that the institute

has three different draw models based around the same fuel cell system the design of the aircraft is tailored to the role it must perform one of them can even fly for up to thirty four hours this potato easy has been adapted to take three d. images of buildings in terrain the fuel cells are perfectly suited to the long flights required to take the high resolution images and do no damage the environment is can also be used to check for breaks in remote pole lines and he's currently monitoring the construction of the winter olympic facilities in sochi. with unmanned aircraft is a flying. machine in which you can demonstrate that when if this technology works it can also be used in large aviation but not directly at all aircraft have no exit or a power unit which is used for ovens to heat the food at the air conditioning and a number of other flight functions are all the world's leading companies have their own hydrogen fuel cell projects. and our company is working with them on creating

these power cells of a slightly different scale. aside from aviation fuel cells offer a greener quiet and more reliable alternative to diesel backup generators as well as being useful for those living in remote areas it is a special interest to telecoms in intensive care units where reliable energy source to mean that difference between life and death a german company. production of this units in russia which can generate of the to kill us of energy for up to seventy two hours that he so we use in western experience in russian and developments new been implementing russian developments in western products hopefully what we do here with the russian developed membrane electronic units will return to the west and as a finished product. the only possible drawback of fuel cells is the use of compressed gas cylinders to store the hydrogen. because when you're explains that they only fill the super strong composite gasoline to just hottest racing of six

hundred atmospheres i no longer felt the need to run and duck for cover i'm afraid that's it for this month's aviation special but whether your frequent flyer or you've quit to keep your feet firmly planted on the ground enjoy the ride. wealthy british style some time to try to find. markets why not come to find out what's really happening to the global economy with my stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to kaiser report on our. spice k two scooby snacks the insulting thing is
