SuperKungFu Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 very cool i wish we could get our hands on the original res of those pics, it would make a very good wallpaper. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
OldFrankHog Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 Very cool indeed :O Never saw ejection that clear and so close. Join us today!!!
JaNk0 Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 Very cool indeed :O Never saw ejection that clear and so close. neither did the co-pilot :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Aeroscout Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 Sweet. DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices
Force_Feedback Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: Wow, very, very nice pics, those from the su-34 are new. Guess I should use my Russian more to statisfy my ejection seat fetish. That bort 801 ejection was used in the 'Zerkalniye Voiny' movie (about a new Su-30 that gets hijacked etc). The interesting part is that 801 is an airworthy airframe! It's not some dedicated ejection test/stress test airframe, it actually flies :) I love the way the gear struts compress when the seat fires, you get the Lowrider idea I have ;) On that page, there is a nice pic of a kh-25 doing a nice high alpha pitch-up for some good old fashioned lofting. Can we *whine whine ED F-15 amraam western aircraft hypocracy talk*? :P Looks like a Х25-МЛ... This is the way teh R-77 should look like: Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:
SuperKungFu Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 do you know if its possible to contact the original publisher/photographer of those pics ans get higher res? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Force_Feedback Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 look over at oborona.ru, that's what all pics say, but I can't find an archive or something over there :( Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:
SuperKungFu Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 yea i also been to oborona.ru, couldnt find anything there either [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

VMFA-Blaze Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 Very cool indeed :O Never saw ejection that clear and so close. I've actually ejected .. while undergoing training at NATC Memphis...that was part of our training....

nscode Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 But the training version must be a softened one.. real ejection is not a healthy sport and chances of the pilot ever flying a high g plane after one aren't that great. Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.

Marine Corps training is hardly a sport, that's rather a bad choice of words there my friend...

EscCtrl Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 But the training version must be a softened one.. real ejection is not a healthy sport and chances of the pilot ever flying a high g plane after one aren't that great. I think that might have been the case with early ejection seats, but seeing as the military spend a lot of money on training their pilots up, ejection seats wouldn't be worthwhile if the pilots weren't reusable :P
Force_Feedback Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Yet he is right, real ejections are devastating, even now, especially on 'Western' ejection seats, though it is changing with the Mb. Mk.16. The maximum G-load with modern (1980/85-now) western seats is about 20G, the trainers go up to about 12G, the difference is that a training seat (with pneumatics and a 'long' tower) has lower G onset rates, which translates in less stress. The emphasis in current western ejection seats is saving lives at all costs, no matter the condition of the pilot, the K-36 focused on survival AND reduction of injuries and a swift return to flying condition of the ejectee. Even so, the G load on the vanilla, K-36D series 2 seat ranges from 14 to 22G (14 in low speed, 22 in 750+ kts ejections). The seat also has a longer burning rocket motor which allowes it to deal with sinkrates better than the ACES II, and twice as good (judging by the full chute deployment altitude) as the MB. Mk.14 NACES seat. To put it simply, you can get whacked by a big hammer, or you can let 4 smaller hammers whack your head with gradual force increments. (ok, bad comparison). The forces build up more quickly in 'our' ejection seats, while the russian seats have a long built-in parachute delay compared to our seats, this all is ofcourse about the old K-36, not the digital ones you see in the Su-30MK series and other 'modern' Russian and Indian planes. Training ejections are like hitting a wall on your bicycle at low speed, while real ejeections are something like hitting a solid wall at 60 km/h in your car, they are both collisions, but the forces build up at different rates.

Evilducky Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 alittle off topic, but that first picture kinda looks like this one from that movie in the post "mirror war" topic. http://imdb.com/gallery/ss/0337678/Ss/0337678/iid_929832.jpg.html?path=gallery&path_key=0337678 almost exactly except the first one on here is on the ground, and the other one is in the air.. strange.
