The Àn-32B-200 aircraft is a multi-purpose tactical
military- transport aircraft of short take-off – landing for the
fulfillment of Air Force tasks with an action radius up to 1000êm (with
installed external airborne fuel tanks -1600êm).
Àn-32B-200 provides:
- delivery of arms, military engineering with weight up
to 7,5t with a cruising speed of 500km/h (overall dimensions of a cargo
cabin 12,5õ2,4õ1,7 (m), volume of a cargo cabin – 66m 3 );
- air landing of engineering and cargoes on modular
platforms with total mass up to 3 t each, and also up to 42 paratroops
through the back cargo door ;
- delivery of 50 armed people;
- evacuation of 24 injured and ill people accompanied with 2-3 people;
- delivery and dropping special cargoes (4õ500kg), located on external beam holders (with removed pendant fuel tanks).
AREE complex of the aircraft is built on the basis of
the modern avionics of the leading world manufacturers - Rockwell
Collins, Universal, Litton, Allied Signal etc., used on the modern
military aircraft of many countries, including countries - members of
NATO.
The architecture of AREE is built on the basis of
digital systems with the usage of interface communication according to
ARINC 429. In the structure of AREE complex the systems of military
purpose are used, the complex conforms the requirements of STANAG and
MIL-STD-1553Â standards, the equipment conforms the requirements of
TSO, is certificated for the usage on the transport aircraft.
In automatic and director operational modes AREE
provides an indispensable level of safety at the expense of signaling
of actuation of operational modes, automatic and continuous control of
health monitoring during the flight with issue of signals about
failures and automatic disconnect of a failured channel.
The system of electronic indication FDS-255 presents to
crew navigational data, meteorological information etc. in accordance
with the selected operational mode.
FDS-255 provides the colour map of the information going
from onboard systems on liquid crystal indicators and broad selection
of modes of the map. The brightness control of the map is provided.
The system allows to map a video information from the video source and sensors of infrared radiation.
The operational recorder BUR-92 during the flight stores
the information on the failured systems and after flight gives this
information to the attendants.
The input of the initial data is performed into the
navigational calculator UNS-1M with the help of the data loader. In the
system the database Jeppesen is used.
During the flight a crew has a possibility to correct the schedule of flight through control panels of the calculator UNS-1M.
The computing system of air navigation ( CSA ) provides
processing of the primary data going from onboard navigationals,
radars, ÑÀÓ and gives an appropriate information to crew. The system
CSA controls the operation of onboard systems.
The CSA system provides fulfillment of the following main functions:
- loading of input data;
- calculation of data for taking-off and landing;
- planning of a flight routing;
- air navigation on a route;
- control of radio navigation systems;
- fulfillment of searching–rescuing operations.
- recording of information connected with the fulfillment of the problem during the flight.
For the determination of the aircraft position in the
complex structure are used LTN-101 inertial system and ANS-85 heading
reference system AHS-85, and also AIM-505 stand-by attitude indicator.
For the determination of high-altitude - fast-track
parameters of the aircraft in the complex structure two ADS-85 systems
of air signals are used.
Dual-channel systems of navigating and landing VIR-432,
the altimeters ALT-4000, automatic control system APS-65 provide
landing approach of the aircraft according to II category ICAO.
The auto flight control system (ACS) APS-65 is an integrated system with a closed loop of control.
In the system the function of the system self-testing
and possibility of substitution on different stages of its work is
provided to guarantee the fulfillment of functions of automatic control
in failed situations and aggravating environmental conditions.
For the cases of failures of the system components the
modes of reconfiguration of functions of ACS system are foreseen. The
logic of reconfiguration of functions conforms MIL-F-9490, MIL-F-872242
and other appropriate documents requirements.
In the system the digital data processing in real time is used.
The aircraft control and maintenance of the demanded
characteristics of stabilization are performed jointly and in bridge on
three axes: longitudinal, lateral and yaw axis. The protection against
situations of the loss of control during the flight is provided..
The ground proximity warning system GPWS Mark VII in the complex structure is used for increasing of a flight safety.
Usage of the navigational computing system UNS-1M and
the automatic control system APS-65 provide automatic flight of the
aircraft on a route and fulfillment of search and rescue operations.
The means of item correction such as, radial system VOR
from the structure of the navigation system and landing VIR-432,
ranging system DME-432, radio system of short-range navigation ARN-153
TACAN, satellite systems SH-3302 GLONAS and GPS from the structure of
the navigational computing system UNS-1M, and also automatic direction
finder ADF-462 allow to pinpoint the aircraft position .
In automatic and director operational modes AREE
provides an indispensable level of safety at the expense of signaling
of actuation of operational modes, automatic and continuous control of
health monitoring during the flight with the issue of signals about
failure and automatic disconnect of a failed channel.
On the aircraft the radar station "BLIZZARD - 140-32" is
installed providing the functions "search", " meteo ", "ground" and has
the following features:
- "Ground mapping" - detection and allocation of radar objects ( RO );
- " Meteo " - detection of airborne moisture targets;
- "Beacon" - operation with ground beacons of Air Force of Russia.
The radar range depends on the type of a radar object,
the maximum rating of range is 400 km at detection of large cities and
powerful thunderstorm airborne moisture targets.
The system has six scales for range finding up to RO .
The system has three scan sectors on azimuth: ±75; ±45;
±15. The system provides manual, mechanical, declination of an
antenna pattern in a vertical plane - not less than ±15° .
Communication apparatus ARC-210 VHF, HF-9000, SPGS
provide performing of non-searching and free-from-tuning radio
communication with ground control posts and crews of other aircraft in
retracted HF , VHF, and UHF ranges; listening of established VHF range;
performing of intercommunication between the crew members; listening of
emergency frequencies of VHF range.
The registration of the voice information is performed
with the help of ED 56A. For the providence of communication after the
aircraft landing outside the aerodrome or radio signal issue for the
drive of search and rescue service devices and audio signal to the
search and rescue services in case of emergency above the water or
aircraft dropping under the water the emergency radio beacons ELT 96
and ULB DM-100 are used.
