Some details of ‘NPP Motor’s’ development & participation in the PAK-FA Stage 2 engine:

В кооперации с предприятиями «Объединенной двигателестроительной корпорации» (ОДК) НПП “Мотор” участвует в создании семейства перспективных двигателей с тягой 9-18 тонн для гражданской авиации и двигателя нового поколения для ПАК ФА II этапа.

НПП “Мотор” участвует в создании научно-технического задела с применением ключевых технологий по следующим направлениям: разработка композитного входного направляющего аппарата и колеса первой ступени компрессора низкого давления с облегченной (полой) рабочей лопаткой на базе технологий диффузионной сварки и линейной сварки трением; разработка одноступенчатой турбины низкого давления с высокой газодинамической эффективностью и удельной мощностью; разработка высокоэффективного малоступенчатого компрессора высокого давления; разработка высокоэффективной форсажной камеры сгорания; разработка высокоэффективной малоступенчатой турбины низкого давления с рабочими лопатками из интерметаллида титана.

In co-operation with the enterprises of the ‘Joint Engine Corporation’ (ODK), NPP ‘Motor’ will develop a family of future engines with thrust ranging from 9 to 18 tons- for both civil aviation and a new generation, 2nd Stage engine for the PAK-FA.

‘NPP Motor’ is a participant in the development of scientific/technical solutions for the application of key technologies in the following areas:

*development of a composite intake guide vane and turbines of the 1st stage low-pressure compressor with lightweight (hollow) fan blades based on diffusion and linear welding technologies.

*development of a single-stage, low-pressure turbine with high gas-dynamic efficiency and power density.

*development of a fewer-staged, highly efficient high-pressure compressor

*development of a highly efficient combustion chamber

*development of a highly efficient, fewer staged, low-pressure turbines composed of fan blades made with composites/alloys of titanium

IIrc, FGFA will be based on T-50, with second seat; enlarged wings (to compensate for loss of fuel from 2nd seat); slightly enlarged tail control surfaces; customised avionics & weapons etc. Obviously, not such a relatively straight-forward conversion like the Su-27 to 27UB.

Interestingly, it’ll likely be the only 2-seater 5G fighter on the market.

Don’t be surprised to see Indian expertise (in whatever form) finding its way onto Russian PAK-FAs.

RuAF/MoD will purchase 10 aircraft for state trials between 2013-15, and then place an order for 60 in 2016 (first batch).

so what makes you think that green arrow is where the red box is supposed to be?

Ermmm…the little bendy red arrows kinda give it away :rolleyes:

Man is born of free will. You believe in the ‘elongated banana engine’, and I believe in the ‘banana duct’. End of.

Hotdog, in no way is the PAK-FA superior to the J-7, ok? Can I go now? Thanks.

Are you sure about that Quadro? Because on the Feb.12th flight video, the refueling hose is decoupled from behind the nosewheel.
