THE NEW FLYING DESK FOR INITIAL TRAINING

Yak-152 piston–engine aircraft:

• is developed by Yakovlev Design Bureau,

the affiliate of Irkut Corporation;

• performed maiden flight on 29 Sept, 2016;

• allows performing flights by day and night,

implementing aerobatics, training in

instrumental piloting and spinning in/off;

• will provide professional selection and training

of a wide variety of pilots in state-run and

private flight training schools;

• may be used for training of aerobatic pilots.

FEATURES & CAPABILITIES

3

Advanced flight performance due to:

• high aerodynamic quality of aircraft;

• enhanced thrust/weight ratio

provided by the most powerful engine

in this aircraft class;

• retractable landing gear;

• developed wing-flap system;

• tandem crew accommodation in two-seat cabin,

with cadet pilot in the front.

MAJOR ADVANTAGES if compared with other aircraft of the same class

• Maximum horizontal flight speed

is 30 … 40% higher (420km/h).

• Take-off run is shorter (235 m).

• G-load envelope is 50% wider (+9 … –7).

• Maximum flight range of 1,500 km is similar

to that of the best counterparts.

POWER PLANT

RED A03Т 500-hp diesel engine provides:

• superb flight speed and climbing rate characteristics;

• capability of operating from airfields located at up to 2000-m

altitude;

• engine starting on the ground and in the air

at the ambient temperatures from +50Co to –25Co;

• reduction of operational costs (as aviation kerosene

is 3-4 times cheaper than aviation gasoline);

• controls of both engine rotation rate and propeller pitch

performed with the single stick, to ensure cadets

will acquire skills corresponding to control jet aircraft;

• better ecological characteristics, than those of gasoline

engines.

5

Manufacturing of RED A03T engines is being established in Russia.

AVIONICS

6

EKBO-152 avionics suite provides:

• triple redundancy of piloting-and-navigation equipment;

• recording of data on flight parameters

and operation of on-board systems,

as well as crew voice communications,

to the protected on-board storage device;

• automatic responses to requests of IFF systems

and secondary radars of air traffic control systems;

• duplex voice communication with ground transceivers

at the distance of up to 200 km;

• in-flight simulation of failures with the use

of the control panel installed in the instructor's cabin.

AVIONICS

7

This up-to-date navigation set provides:

• flying by day and night;

• implementation of instrument training flight, while

the cadet's cabin is shielded with the blind;

• enhanced flight safety.

GLONASS/GPS navigation receiver, short-range

radio navigation and landing system are

introduced into avionics suite.

EMERGENCY EJECTION SYSTEM

SKS-94M super-lightweight non-seat catapult

system is the unique feature of Yak-152 aircraft.

8

This system:

• provides enhanced safety of training;

• is smaller, then catapult seat systems;

• is employable within the 60 … 400-km/h

speed and 7 … 4000-m altitude envelopes;

• features no analogues in the world;

• ensures pilot’s G-loads not exceeding those,

applicable to any parachute jumper.

DESIGN & OPERATION

Yak-152 features simplicity of design and easiness of operation.

9

• The aircraft performs flights from concrete and unpaved runways with minimal specific density of 5 … 6 kgf/cm2.

• The aircraft can be stored outside of hangar.

• Yak-152's operational lifetime comprises 10,000 hours, 30 years, and 30,000 landings. Aircraft's assemblies and systems are designed for 'on condition' operation.

• Maintenance easiness is ensured by convenient access to aircraft’s assemblies and communications.

• Flight preparation time is about 15 min. Second flight preparation time is near 10 min.

PRODUCTION

Manufacturing of Yak-152 is established at Irkutsk Aviation Plant, the affiliate of Irkut Corporation.

10

All manufacturing equipment, tooling,

and technologies are certified in accordance

with the national and international standards.

For Yak-152 production, up-to-date manufacturing

technologies introduced earlier for key corporate

programs (Su-30SM, Yak-130, MC-21, A-320

components), are employed.

PILLARS OF EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE

Yakovlev Design Bureau has accumulated the vast experience in development of aviation training products.

11

Since 1935, more than 22,000 UT-2, Yak-11, Yak-18, Yak-

52 piston-engine aircraft of various modifications have

been manufactured in Russia and abroad.

While flying Yak-50, Yak-55, Yak-55M light-weight aircraft

capable of performing any aerobatic manoeuvres,

Russian pilots have won numerous Highest Awards of

Aerobatic World Championships.

Yak-152 aircraft is the logical continuation of Yakovlev

training and aerobatic brands.

From the former, Yak-152 inherits easiness of flight

control and simplicity of maintenance.

From the latter, it inherits high manoeuvrability and ability

to fly at high G-loads varying from +9 to –7.
