MMA-A3 Falcon

It's termed here as the Su-63 because that's the Malatose designation and he wrote it up as the rest of us gave him the information - he as well gave massive input on the actual design.


With the growing Airforces of the world the Macabee and Malatose Governments decided to come together in this joint effort to create a Air Superiority Fighter beyond the rest.This Fighter was designed to win the skies with its advanced Avionic Systems and to develop precision ground strikes against targets.

Weapons Systems

2 x One GSh-30-1 30mm: Two GSh-30-1 30-mm cannons are mounted in blisters on either side of the main fuselage. The cannons are mounted on a geared rotor that is driven by a 20-hp electric motor which turns the barrels while each one fires individually. The cannon is capable of firing up to 7,200 rounds per minute with a muzzle velocity of 1,030 meters per second. Each cannon is fed from an internal 800 round storage drum which feeds the cannon with a double-ended hydraulically driven linkless feed system.

Cockpit
http://img18.exs.cx/img18/6537/cockpit0016ox.gif
The Cockpit of the Su-63 is all glass.There are no traditional round dial, standby or dedicated gauges and the Cockpit is fully Night Vision Compatible.

The GEC-built Head-Up Display (HUD) offers a wide field of view (30 degrees horizontally by 25 degrees vertically) and serves as a primary flight instrument for the pilot.

There are six liquid crystal display (LCD) panels in the cockpit. These present information in full color and are fully readable in direct sunlight. LCDs offer lower weight and less size than the cathode ray tube (CRT) displays used in most current aircraft. The lower power requirements also provide a reliability improvement over CRTs. The two Up-Front Displays (UFDs) measure 3"x4" in size and are located to the left and right of the ICP

The Integrated Control Panel (ICP) is the primary means for manual pilot data entry for communications, navigation, and autopilot data. Located under the glareshield and HUD in center top of the instrument panel, this keypad entry system also has some double click functions, much like a computer mouse for rapid pilot access/use.

The Primary Multi-Function Display (PMFD) is a 8"x8" color display that is located in the middle of the instrument panel, under the ICP. It is the pilot’s principal display for aircraft navigation (including showing waypoints and route of flight) and Situation Assessment (SA) or a "God's-eye view" of the entire environment around (above, below, both sides, front and back) the aircraft.

Three Secondary Multi-Function Displays (SMFDs) are all 6.25" x 6.25" and two of them are located on either side of the PMFD on the instrument panel with the third underneath the PMFD between the pilot's knees. These are used for displaying tactical (both offensive and defensive) information as well as non-tactical information (such as checklists, subsystem status, engine thrust output, and stores management).

Stealth Technology

The Su-63 employs technologies to significantly reduce Radar Cross Section (RCS), infrared signature, electromagnetic signature, visual signature and aural signature. RCS reduction represents the paramount LO feature considered in the Su-63 design. To reduce RCS, the
S-63 employs a geometrically based radar disbursing configuration. Developed utilizing computational RCS modeling techniques employed and/or developed by Sukhoi, the Su-63 configuration employs facets approximated by curvelinear, polynomial sections. Ultimate Su-63 RCS reduction, however, is dependent upon a proprietary combination of bandpass external skins, internal shaping and the implimentation of Cold-Plasma-Cavity Active Stealth Technology. Between the external bandpass skins and the internal graphite hull backed by an alloy geodetic structure is a cavity. Within this cavity a low temperature plasma is achieved. This plasma, as manipulated actively by the aircraft’s computer driven self-protection network, provides an unparalleled level of active stealth technology whereby incoming interrogative radar energy is substantially disrupted such that return signal is mitigated to undetectable levels or chaotic, undeciferable signals. Rather than rely solely upon external shaping, Sukhoi proprietary Su-63 stealth technology adapts to frequency and bandwidth, allowing maximum LO performance against all air-to-air and ground based radar types alike. Su-63 clean, all-aspect RCS is on the order of 0.006 square meters.

To reduce RCS while carrying external stores, the aircraft can be equipped with Radar Elusive Tactical Stores Dispensers (RETSD™), developed by Sukhoi. These dispensers allow the Su-63 to carry wing mounted external stores without compromising LO features. This allows the Su-63 to conduct precision strike and air-to-air engagements with limited detectability. The Su-63 also features two independent, internal weapons bays for compact internal stores carriage including both the tube-launched short range AAM as well as 250 LB class precision guided munitions. Carriage of compact stores within these internal weapons bays permits a slightly armed Su-63 to function in a "clean" RCS configuration.

Reduction of IR emissions is achieved through the use of a dedicated engine bay cooling/IR signature reduction system. Ducting residual inlet air through the Powerplant Signature Reduction Shroud (PSRS), significantly reduces aircraft IR signature both in the subsonic and supersonic regime. Coupled with Lo-Axi™ or similar LO turbofan exhaust nozzle, the aircraft IR signature is substantially reduced.

Aural signature is reduced in part through the PSRS. For enhanced aural signature reduction, Sukhoi is considering Active Frequency Damping (AFD) and comparable active noise control systems. Visual signature is reduced through employment of smokeless turbofans and by limiting overall aircraft size.

Protection against Scalar EM Weapons is provided through the application of lossy insulation and active cold plasma manipulation within the cavity between the aircraft graphite unibody and aramid external skins.

MTAAM-3 Silencer Air to Air Missile

Type: MADAAM (Most ADvanced Air to Air Missile)
Propulsion: The Silencer uses a SCRAMjet engine, which instead of using an independent chamber for oxygen it uses oxygen from the atmosphere in order to light the fuel chamber, saving the space which could be used instead to add more fuel, giving the missiles a much longer range. In order to further this range the engine is made of a Ni based superalloy with high Cr content and using the d-electron concept. The d-electron concept was developed on the basis of the molecular orbital calculations of the electronic structures of Ni alloys. The two electronic parameters that are important for this concept are the bond order between an alloying element and nickel atons, Bo, and the other is the d-orbital energy level of alloing elements. This specific composition has high hot-corrossion resistance, tested by the immersion test, where it was tested through weight loss. There is a second coating oa Rene N6 single crystal based superalloy called CMSX-11B and CMSX-116, containing Chromium levels of 12.5% to 14.5% respectively. The Rene N6 also increases hydrogen resistance (HEE).

Guidance System: The Silencer uses a computer which means it's guided bu the MRT-2 RADAR system on the Hawk and Falcon, and can be programmed to be compatible with any RADAR, including ground RADAR. The missile also has a miniature RADAR with a twenty kilometer range for its terminal phase. The Predator is also programmed for use of surface SODAR and CELLDAR systems if available.

The missile also has a heterodyne-reception optical RADAR using a standard configuration [transmitter laser > exit optics > atmospheric propagation path > target] and [photodetector > photocurrent processing > image processing / BermCombiner/ local oscillato entrance optics]. The Silencer's transmitter is a Casegrainian telescope/ Picture coming soon...

SRSB Naram-Sin
(Short Range Strategical Bomber)

Abstract: The Naram-Sin is an extension program to the old Western Asian BMV ULA (came out near September 2003), and an improvement over the BMV/MA-1 ULA Gilgamesh (released November 2004). The new SRSB Naram-Sin would be able to sit over a battlefield and launch a barrage of missiles into invading armies, using the newly designed SkyCat 2000 transport bays, put onto two parallel bomb bays. The mammoth Naram-Sin could reload the ‘clips’ with missiles on hand and be refuled by air, therefore it would stay in combat for an extended period of time.

Engines: Using ‘air-breathing’, rocket based, combined-cycle engines, first developed as a concept by Preston Carter, the Naram-Sin would act as Hypersonic aircraft, of sorts. However, the Naram-Sim would not be as fuel efficient as Carter’s brainchild, yet substantially more fuel efficient than a normal jet engine. Instead, the engines would throttle pushing the Naram-Sin into the upper atmosphere in a near vertical accension, advancing about ten kilometers. As it descents into denser air the Naram-Sin would be pushed up by the increased aerodynamic lift. The engies would fire again, but unlike Carter’s Hypersoar, the engines have the ability to ‘rotate’ through hydraulics and thus pushes the Naram-Sin back up and backwards, so that the Naram-Sin would oscilate back and forth between two points. Any heat which plagues Hypersonic aircraft such as this would be negated as the Naram-Sin would radiate its heat into space, just like the Hypersoar. A 255,000 kilogram Naram-Sin would weigh as much as the heaviest Ariane 4 yet carry 40% more payload.

The engines are constructed of a single crystal Ni-Fe based superalloy called THYMONEL 8. THYMONEL 8 has a high fatigue resistance and this couples with a low hydrogen environment embrittlement (HEE). THYMONEL 8 exibit high termal conductivity and lower Young’s modulus meaning its beneficial for the thermo-mechanical strength. THYMONEL 8 is another RENE N6 based superalloy, and RENE N6 is microstructurally stable, and does not suffer from SR2, a cellular precipitation reaction which happens beneath coatings.

Maximum Velocity (Without loadout): Mach 1.5 (Mach 11 in the upper atmosphere)

Maximum Velocity (Fully Loaded): Mach 1 (Mach 8 in the upper atmosphere; the Hypersoar has a velocity of Mach 10)

Armaments: Using parallel bomb bays the Naram-Sin could place eight ‘clips’ or missile racks per bomb bay, and then stack them in three ‘levels’, meaning each Naram-Sin would have a total of forty-eight ‘clips’, each with twelve ‘slots’, thus a total of five hundred and seventy-six missiles (!). Now, if enough of a stockpile is put into the craft the Naram-Sin could hold and fire a total of two thousand eight hundred and eighty missiles, giving each Naram-Sin (fully loaded) a 2.8 billion dollar value (putting missiles at export price), which although costly, is very effective. ( Which explains why my own airforce only employs one so far.)

The ideal load out:

192 MTAAM-3 Air to Air Missiles
192 MAAM B Cruise Missiles
192 MLAM or MALAS Missiles


However, one could give it a load out which fits a specific mission better. The racks give the possibility of contraction or expansion of the ‘slots’ to fit missiles better – this is done mechanically and through AI if under the ‘re-load phase’ during combat exercises.

Targeting Systems:

MRT-5 on board RADAR with a 100 kilometers range
MST-2 on board SODAR system
MLT-3 o board LIDAR system


The Naram-Sin also uses land based targeting systems, as well as naval targeting systems.

Crew: 60

Export Cost: 350 million (not including missiles) or 3.5 billion (including ideal missile load out)




MLAM-2 Air to Surface Missile

Propulsion: The MLAM-2 uses a conventional Octagen solid rocket fuel booster to propel itself along the surface of the sea, or extremely low in a land terrain scenario. In order to further the range the engine is made of a Ni based superalloy with high Cr content and using the d-electron concept. The d-electron concept was developed on the basis of the molecular orbital calculations of the electronic structures of Ni alloys. The two electronic parameters that are important for this concept are the bond order between an alloying element and nickel atons, Bo, and the other is the d-orbital energy level of alloing elements. This specific composition has high hot-corrossion resistance, tested by the immersion test, where it was tested through weight loss. There is a second coating oa Rene N6 single crystal based superalloy called CMSX-11B and CMSX-116, containing Chromium levels of 12.5% to 14.5% respectively. The Rene N6 also increases hydrogen resistance (HEE).

Range: The maximum range is 200 kilometers
Maximum Velocity: Mach 2.5
Optimum Velocity: 2.1 for maximum range

Guidance System: The Silencer uses a computer which means it's guided by the MRT-2 RADAR system on the Hawk and Falcon, and can be programmed to be compatible with any RADAR, including ground RADAR. The missile also has a miniature RADAR with a twenty kilometer range for its terminal phase. The Predator is also programmed for use of surface SODAR and CELLDAR systems if available.

The missile also has a heterodyne-reception optical RADAR using a standard configuration [transmitter laser > exit optics > atmospheric propagation path > target] and [photodetector > photocurrent processing > image processing / BermCombiner/ local oscillato entrance optics]. The Silencer's transmitter is a Casegrainian telescope

Explosion Style: Direct impact and high explosive.
Length: 3.9 meters
Diamter: 19 centimeters
Missile Warhead: 200 kilograms OctaNitroCubane

Price:1.3 million USD



MALAS-2
Type:Aerial Launched Anti-Shipping Missing[/u]

Engine:The MALAS-2 uses a conventional engine, with a conventional jet turbine, propelling it at a measly Mach 2.1. However, this lower velocity also allows it to maneuver in the face of enemy surface to air missiles, which may be sent to counter the MALAS-2 at longer ranges, allowing the MALAS-2 to most likely surface massive barrages of long range anti-missile SAMs. In addition, the turbine is coated by the THYMONEL 8 superalloy which is used a lot in Macabee missiles to protected against hydrogen embrittlement (HEE), as well as over heating, giving the MALAS-2 an extremely long range (four hundred kilometers; meaning five four seventy total, taking in mind that it drops the torpedo at around 70 kilometers from the enemy fleet). THYMONEL 8 was a NiFe superalloy mixed by the United States military for its jet turbines (NiFe is Nickel Based Iron Formula superalloy).

The MALAS-2 jet turbine propells the missile capsule, which is much like a bouyancy capsule, however, instead is slimmer. At around seventy kilometers distance the MALAS-2 missile capsule, using RADAR and LIDAR to compute distance, as well as sattelite coordination if their are sattelites present, and the missile capsule breaks releasing an MT-3 torpedo into the water. However, this requires the MALAS-2 to slow down to around 120 kilometers per hour. To decrease speed without allowing the enemy a greater time period to shoot it down, the Principe III has a very advanced jamming system, which jams enemy RADAR, giving it ample time to close the distance, break, and drop the MT-3.

The Torpedo: The MT-3 torpedo uses a rocket engine with a NiAl, alumina formula nickel based superalloy, coating to project itself at fifty knots. The engine uses an MHD type propulsion, however using the NiAl construction to ease the rocket projection. It is a sort of underwater ramjet, first developed by the Russians, and then improved by New Empire, and finally in the hands of the The Macabees. The MT-3 is, consequently, extremely silent. The MT-3 also uses a cavitation absorber on the frame and on the screw; this was first developed by the U.S. Navy for destroyers, and shrunk by the Macabees to fit on a torpedo.

It has a 300kg Octagen warhead, with a hull piercing tip, to burn through the titanium double hulls. However, against a titanium frame it would still, most probably, still require two torpedoes to penetrate. The width of the warhead remains 500mm to be able to use it on the existing tubes on the Toledo class SSN and Spanish ASROC weapons on surface ships.

The MT-3 has a rounder form in order to force water pressure to spread equally along the torpedo, meaning that the torpedo could be fired at deeper depths.

The MT-3 is the only “normal” torpedo in Macabee use up to now. It could be classified as MADCAP, according to New Empire’s classification system. The MT-1 and MT-2 are Super Cavitational torpedoes.

Hehe yea, I figured that but what I mean is that it probably isn't a word officially christened...it's like saying "Ground Sports" - like putting two words that mean something together. Then again, I'm not a German expert, just words used in Second World War terminology and things I pick up.

The Democratic Peoples Republic of Mekugi is interested in purchaseing the production rights for the MMA-3 Falcon, though we considered individual purchaseing of the craft, at our airforces currently degraded state we feel ti would be best to produce it locally.

We would also like to purchase Five craft with which we can begin trainign pilots while production and familiarization begins. We agree to all the terms that are to come from purchaseing production rights and will honor such an agreement above all other concerns. The total for the Five craft, and Production rights should come to 5,550,000,000 or so accounting tells us.

Databurst to Mekugi
After a rigorous background test Luftkrieg has decided that it would be within it's best interest to approve of the transfer and provide Mekugi with the production rights to the Falcon and the five individual aircraft. The blueprints will be sent in short order - within the day - and the five aircraft will arrive at your largest harbor, or nearest harbor, within two weeks (due to shipping distances it takes a while, although these aircraft are at hand). We congratulate Mekugi on their newly aquired Luftkrieg produced aerial assets and guarantee their supremacy over the craft of the enemy.

Statement from Kotoko Aircraft Corporation

"Based on preliminary released data from the MMA-A3 Falcon, the cockpit electronics are superior to those used by our own domestic aircraft. Would it be possible to acquire blueprints for them? We will pay handsomely for such rights."

Sattelite DataBurst to Tyrandis
Well, although Tyrandis isn't an open friendly with the Macabees, yet clandestinely we have persued many commong goals and gone very far in diplomatic relations, at least those under the table, it has been allowed for LuftKrieg industries to provide Tyrandian engineers with the blueprints to the cockpit of the Falcon. We are not ones to name prices, as we either underprice them, which is to our disadvantange, or overprice them, which is to yours. So we leave the table open for you to claim the starting price and we will fixate it as we see right from there, and provide you with the final tag.

The chairmen to Luftkrieg scratched his head and immediately ordered one of those 'computer whizzes' he had around the place to send a databurst immediately cotaining the simple word of 'accepted'. He then jumped on the table top and proceeded to do the Macarena, until one of his secretaries walked in and her jaw dropped and then he pimped her...and then this has nothing to do with the purchase, but we can all expect the conclusion of the story.

Recent Production and flight tests with the MMA-A3 Falcon have proven far beyond what we expected, and we are,-to say the least- very impressed at the quality, and preformance of the design. Though our nation is almost violently opposed to non-indigenious designs (it is a rare case that we purchase from outside sources) The preformance of the MMA-A3 proves that quality can be found beyond our shores, and its with great excitement that we seek to purchase 1,800 MADAAM's ansd 850 MLAM-2's to suppliment our existing AIM-103X MADRAAM (Manuverable, Advanced Dual Range Air-to-Air Missiles) which are excellant in the short to medium range roles (up to 40 nm), but lack the long range autonomy and target engagement capabilities of the MADAAM. aS wella s to fill the gap left until our own Kazeha ATGM project is completed, though we will most likely continue later purchases of the MLAM-2 due to its impressive multi-mission capabilities. Total is (or so our accountants tell us) 3,085,000,000 or 3.085 billion USD, the money will be wired upon confirmation of our order.

At the exact same time the chairman was having his fun, an underpaid Kotoko employee finished up the transfer, but not before embezzeling two million for himself. His crime was soon discovered by KAC's internal accounting firm, and was duly punished by being sold into slavery until his debt is repaid. Two days after the initial transfer, the remaining $2,000,000 was wired to Luftkrieg's bank account.

We are very glad to see Mekugi back and because of such a gleefull attitude presented by the Mekugi spokesperson to Luftkrieg the chariman has decided that Mekugi has been added to the 'frequent buyer' list and consequently the order has been confirmed for a reduced price of 2,159,500,000 USD. The required order will be fulfilled and supplied to a major Mekugi port within the month.

We once again thank you.
