designed as a part of “Vityaz-MO” R&D project. The PPK-20 has completed state trials, and is


now awaiting the final decision of the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation in regards to adoption by the Armed Forces. The PPK-20 was significantly modified to make it more compact, and now it is under consideration to become a new weapon system in the pilot’s personal survival kit for the Russian Aerospace Forces. The PPK-20 tests carried out at the RF MOD State Flight Test Centre in Aktyubinsk, confirmed that it could be placed in an ejection seat; tests are continuing to assess the effectiveness of the changes made. If the trials are successful, Kalashnikov Group is ready to start production of the PPK-20, which also has significant export potential. The PPK-20 can also serve as PDW (Personal Defence Weapon), a firearm for combat vehicle crews or various support units, and for Special Forces units that operate in urban areas, inside structures and vehicles, and in crowded environments. The length of the PPK-20 with the folded butt stock is only 41 cm. The trials showed that when 7N21 ammunition is used, PPK-20 could penetrate Level 3A body armour (NIJ standard). With this round, the muzzle velocity of the PPK20 is nearly 470 m/s, and the point blank range at a full-height target is 360 m.

New Mi-171SH Storm arrived under its own power from Ulan-Ude The upgraded Mi-171Sh Storm military transport helicopter arrived under its own power from Ulan-Ude aviation plant of ‘’Russian Helicopters’’ (Rostec State Corporation) at the international military-technical forum “Army-2021”. The five thousand kilometers flight took five days. 8

“The multifunctional special forces helicopter has become a breakthrough product in UlanUde Aviation Plant’s lineup. It embodies several solutions that significantly increase its combat effectiveness and survivability,” says Alexey Kozlov, managing director of Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant. – Crew members, maintenance personnel and landing group commanders gave their suggestions on how to improve aircraft. The


main task has been to provide security for all participants of the operation. The Mi-171Sh Storm helicopter is specially designed to carry out counter-terrorism missions by special forces. The helicopter is equipped with “high-altitude” increased power engines, a new rotor system with an improved profile composite main rotor and X-shaped tail rotor, an integrated flight and navigation system, and most importantly - an improved composition of weapons and defense systems. Improving crew and trooper safety was one of the key goals of the upgrade. That is why the Mi-171Sh Storm has improved armor protection on the fuselage, which guarantees mission performance even in fire resistance

counteraction. In particular, the onboard defense system provides enhanced survivability and protection. The onboard defense system (ODS) can detect antiaircraft missile launches and jam portable anti-aircraft missile systems (MANPADS). The innovation can detect missile launches with infrared and thermal homing heads and knock them off course with jammers and decoys. ODS can also detect enemy radars, determine their irradiate direction, the type of radar, and its operation mode. The onboard defense system has an innovative feature to instantly display aerosol smoke screens to cover up the loading and unloading of troops. This will protect from, among other things, detection by thermal imaging devices. Combined titanium and aramid armor helicopter’s protection and other structural measures also increase combat endurance and safety. The troops in the cargo cabin, as well as the most important components and crew protected by armor. For troops protection, the cargo cabin floor is fully covered with removable lightweight kevlar armor. The same armor is installed along with the port and starboard side up to the level of the portholes. The Mi-171Sh Storm provides energy-absorbing landing seats for “hard landing”, which improves the survival of troops. With two sliding doors and additional hatches, the Mi-171Sh Storm’s troops landing capabilities have been significantly expanded. To reduce military equipment visibility specialized pixel helicopter coloring is designed - four-color “digital” camouflage. Large-caliber machine guns “Kord” (caliber 12.7 mm) has been installed to expand aviation weapons range. The aircraft is to be equipped with a modern observation optoelectronic station, including TV and thermal imaging channels, as well as a laser rangefinder. Along with small arms and gun machines, unguided rockets and bombs of various calibers, the helicopter is also equipped with a guided missile system including sighting and targeting system, which allows to fight against air and ground targets, destroy enemy’s fire points and armored vehicles.

“Russian Helicopters’’ presented helicopter cockpit of the future at the forum “Army-2021 ‘’Russian Helicopters’’ Holding (part of the Rostec State Corporation) at the International Military-Technical Forum “Army-2021” presented a moke-up cabin of advanced Russian helicopters made following modern requirements for ergonomics and functionality. This mock-up will allow mastering several technologies at once, including the use of sensory “glass cockpit” application, forecasting system and pilot’s decision-making support and so on. 10


T

he ergonomic cockpit mock-up research work is aimed for flight safety improvement, as well as reliability and efficiency of helicopter crews. The information and control field of the future helicopter cockpit is formed in such a way as to reduce the crew’s psychophysical and intellectual workload while in flight, as well as to maintain its full situational awareness. “We have set ourselves a task, in cooperation with leading research centers and domestic avionics manufacturers, to find optimal technical solutions that will allow us to build new principles of interaction between pilot and helicopter, reduce the load on the crew and human factor influence, and significantly

improve flight safety. Onboard avionics equipment development will seriously change the face of modern helicopters soon, and I am confident that this research work will allow us to take the lead in these changes,” said Andrey Boginsky, CEO of “Russian Helicopters”. In the research and development process of future cockpit mock-up, several concepts and technologies will be tested. In particular, the demonstrator will explore the use of a “glass cockpit” with indication and control modern features on a single working field of a sensor dashboard. Another area of research will be intelligent crew support system application with interactive forecasting algorithms, optimal control problems solving, support system decision, space-time flight path construction optimization, including for high-precision flights in artificial obstacle conditions. In addition, the future cabin will explore the optimal automation concept, which involves a “virtual pilot” introduction and rational functions distribution between him and the crew. The mockup will also be used to test the concept of applying augmented reality elements with a “synthetic vision” system implementation, based on information compilation from various onboard sensors and systems. The cockpit mock-up was commissioned by Russian Helicopters on behalf of broad cooperation of avionics equipment developers and manufacturers, which includes “Research and Testing Institute of Ergatic Systems” JSC, “Navigator” JSC, FGUP GosNIIAS and the Research Test Center of Aviation and Space Medicine and Military Ergonomics of the Central Research Institute of Air Force of the Defense Ministry. The expert organization for the project is the V.P. Chkalov State Flight Research Center of the Russian Ministry of Defense (GLITS MO RF).
