Russia’s Concern Radio-Electronic Technologies (KRET) is developing a new on-board defense system (ODS) for the Ilyushin Il-112B military transport aircraft to protect it from all types of missiles that could be designed up to 2025.
Based on the advanced President-S, the new Ilyushin Il-112B aircraft with modified ODS is expected to be delivered to the Russian Army in 2019, according to the company’s statement, cited by defenseworld.net.
The aircraft could be used to deliver cargo close to the front line, where it risks being hit by a missile. The President-S ODS is designed to protect planes and helicopters from being hit by missiles, air defense and anti-aircraft artillery. The defense system is currently installed on the Ka-52, Mi-28 and Mi-26 helicopters.
In the field of avionics, KRET is showcasing at Airshow China 2016 an advanced helicopter avionics demonstrator emulating real-life operation of a new flight and navigation system, according to rusaviainsider.com. The system presents the crew with information via electronic displays, and also supports radio communications with other aircraft and air traffic control centers in keeping with the modern requirements.
KRET is also demonstrating export versions of the Sukhoi Su-35 fighter’s avionics. These new generation radio-electronic solutions are based on an information management system designed to help the pilot control onboard equipment; they include the RSUO weapon management system, the MZBN compact protected airborne recorder, a family of small-sized X- and Ka-band airborne radars, and an integrated IBKO-152 system.
