2 Kamov Ka-27PS SAR helicopters [1] Ulyanovsk (Russian: Улья́новск , IPA: [ʊˈlʲjanəfsk] ), Soviet designation Project 1143.7 , was a fixed-wing aircraft carrier laid down on 25 November 1988 as the first of a class of Soviet nuclear-powered supercarriers .
This resulted in the Project 1143.5 (Kuznetsov class) plan created by the Nevskoye Bureau and approved at the end of 1979. As originally planned, Project 1143.5 was to have a full load displacement of 65,000 tons, CATOBAR capability, and an air wing based around fixed-wing aircraft and Kamov helicopters. [ 9 ]
Project 1153 Orel (Russian: Орёл pr: "Or'yol", Eagle) was Soviet Union's planned aircraft carrier class developed in the 1970s to give the Soviet Navy a true blue water aviation capability. The vessel would have about 72,000 tons displacement, a nuclear powered propulsion system and steam catapults for aircraft launch, similar to the ...

The prototype build in MMZ 'Opit' first flew on June 17, 1955, with Yu.L. Alasheyev at the controls. It was fitted with a drag parachute to shorten the landing distance by up to 400 m (1,300 ft), since at the time, not many airports had sufficiently long runways. [1] The first serial TU-104 took off on 5 November 1955. [2]
Six experimental flights were conducted on the BI-1, until, on the 7th flight, during maximum speed testing, the pilot lost control of the trajectory of the plane and crashed, resulting in Bakhchivadzhi's death. A 1:1 scale replica of the BI-1 jet plane was recreated in the front square of the airport in honour of the BI-1 and Grigory.
In the second half of 1980s with a help of then MAI rector Yuri Ryzhov they obtained support from Gazprom for the start-up Design Bureau "Thermpolan" and first scaled prototype ALA-40 was constructed at the Ulyanovsk Aviation Production Complex and rolled-out in 1992. That was a rather small airship, and a full-scale model was not built at that ...
Project 23000 or Shtorm (Russian: Шторм, lit. 'Storm') is a proposal for an aircraft carrier designed by the Krylov State Research Center for the Russian Navy. [1] The cost of the export version (Project 23000E) has been put at over US$5.5 billion, [4] and as of 2017 development had been expected to take ten years. [4]
