Kh-90 Cruise Missile

Recommended Posts


machine translation from airwar.ru

 

Within the limits of activities on creation of cruise missiles of long range simultaneously with activities on Kh-55 in activities participated Corp. "Mechanical engineering" (were OKB-52, created by V.N.Chelomeem). As well as first project Rainbow Design B., project Corp "Mechanical engineering" assumed creation of a base design which at corresponding modification would be capable to meet requirements both overland basing, and marine basing, and basing by airplanes-rocket carriers (activity for both organisations has been set simultaneously and one PSM the USSR).

 

Project Corp "Mechanical engineering" differed higher characteristics. It was a large airplane-shell with the swept collapsible wing, equipped mid-flight direct flow engine with the built-in accelerating unit. The declared speed was equaled 3000 km / h, a ceiling of 24000 m and range to 5000 km. The air version of an airplane-shell has received designation ЗМ25А "Meteorite". As an airplane-carrier it was supposed to use modified Tu-95MS on which on wing pylons it was planned to place from 2 to 4 "Meteorites". Accordingly under new suspensions the control system of preparation and start-up of rockets should be finished, elements of a land complex etc. are finished In addition to external suspensions "Meteorites", not falling outside the limits the stipulated loadings, it would be possible to place in a freight compartment and other kinds of fighting loadings, including ARM, and also rockets of a class "air-air" that should improve stability a complex to air defence means.

 

In May, 1980 the first start-up from a land bench which has ended unsuccessfully has been made. Difficulties with development "Meteorite" have shifted the beginning of tests by an airplane-carrier for some years. For activities on a theme "Meteorite" serial has been allocated Ту-95МС ╧ 04, in January, 1983 this airplane has been converted. Airplane test and a complex were conducted within several years, there were practical start-up of "Meteorites" from an airplane side. Difficult enough complex demanded long developments and adaptations, and in the meantime its competitor with rockets Kh-55 already was under construction serially. Therefore soon all activities on "Meteorite", on the general background of decrease in defensive assignments and curtailing of variety of defensive programs have been terminated.
