Russian proverb: “There is no prophet in his own country.” This means that at home the inventor will not be rewarded.

The company offers single-engine fighter with radar based on the Yak-130

I have a hunch that the finnish AF will need a new trainer too. I am pretty sure YAK-130 is very capable for that role ( or a proven derivative ).

Military potential

Russia, 17,125,187 km² * 146,270,033 people = 2504901667621171 (1358%)
Sweden, 449,964 km² * 9,723,809 people. = 4375363992876 (237%)
Finland, 338 430.53 km² * 5,450,614 = 1844654184845.42 (100%)

Suggest that the role of the enemy assign Sweden, it is real. 🙂

I think and hope that we just rehearse as we don’t want anykinda conflict with anyone. Sweden is real, but no data tells that they are preparing for an assault on Finland.

If you don’t know they spotted a “russian” submarine of the coast of Stockholm last summer and chased it for weeks ( days at least ). They didn’t get it….it slipped I figure. But these unexpected rehearsals cost millions for the tax payers.

You don’t happen to know about subs operating inside the territorial waters of Sweden or Finland…I mean it could be any nation until proven right ?

Tell me about the tactics of the rocket plane. Who is the enemy?

I really cannot tell who will be our next enemy…hopefully no one.

I can tell you that an enemy usually in the exercises is the A2 YELLOW…..an imaginative force that tries to overtake Finland.

I haven’t mastered the tactics for this hybrid AC yet…as no air force has shown any interest it would be pretty futile in the first place.

But I remember reading that you can get a better shot with an BWR missile if you are above you enemy…whoever that is.

In my opinion this kinda ac would suit the finnish AF the best…cause it is moderately stealth, versatile, low cost and bullet proof + indigenous and lands on a small field even…also the streched vertical capability could be of use ( IMHO ).

Can you tell who you think the enemies of Russia are ? I recall that communists always hated the imperial west…is it now the smaller fractions in the central east ( as was once stated here ) ?

Here is the new seat; http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/russian-company-patents-lightweight-ga-ejection-seat-408828/

It is pushing the envelope that will bring about new possibilities.

I hope Paralay does not take this too seriously, but I think MINIKITE with it’s lite weight could “intercept” a Mig-31 as it has rocket propulsion and piston engines both.

It ( in my mind ) could first fly to 20 km on pistons real slow like Mach 0.8 and then ignite the rockets for few minutes and hit M3.1 at 65 km…like Space Ship 1 can and has done.

This is highly teorethical…and the wood composite I have planned to use may not withstand the heat at 65 km ( 380 degs C ) at M3.1….plywood will ingite at 400 C ( for reference ).

Evaluation RCS: 0.9 – 1.86 m2 minimum, 3 – 4 m2 maximum

Maximum takeoff weight 3300 – 3600 kg
Maximum combat load of 804 kg
Normal combat load of 450 kg

Wing loading of 180 kg / m2
The load on the power of 2.77 kg / hp.
Takeoff thrust-0.72 (maximum takeoff weight)

Paralay you have a really good touch on drawing aeroplanes. I think I asked you once before, but you are not a professional aeroplane designer are you ? Just a fan like I am ? Do you work in the industry ?
