@@Captain22021971It saw the sky first only because the Soviet Government pressed them into beating the Concordes time line. So like typical Russian designs, they took short cuts and brushed off safety and efficiency concerns to meet a deadline. A large part of why they were grounded from passenger service. The same service that had only one route with 55 total passenger flights. LMAO, if the British hacked their Concorde together like that they would have flown years before the Russians even put a pencil on the drawing board. But real aircraft manufactures try to avoid building screeching lawn darts, even if it adds another 4 whole months to their build time. I know which aircraft I'd choose to fly, and it wouldn't be the one that required ear plugs or afterburners to maintain cruising speeds. 😂 Edit: Spelling.

I always found the early navigation systems fascinating. In 1981, Honda actually offered a similar navigation system as a first in car GPS, you would feed it real paper maps of the area, and using an onboard gyroscope and a servo gear on the transmission, it would work out where you were at any time on the journey and move the map along accordingly, looking the same as a modern GPS later would. We take GPS for granted now, but it must have looked very futuristic at the time.

@tacticaldelusion Рік тому

@shoora813 Рік тому

Both teams communicated up to some point. To some extent one can say that Concord is a “Tupolevski”

@tacticaldelusion Рік тому

@@shoora813 The Soviets were in a mad dash to beat the Anglo-French Concorde into the air. In order to do so, the KGB spent a large amount of time pilfering Concorde blueprints. This is something the Concorde team was cognizant of and they passed on a lot of technical information to the KGB that was useless to their endeavors, such as blueprints with incorrect dimensions and drawings of systems that simply didn’t work. The Soviets had a few major problems on their hands. The first was their desire to beat Concorde into the air. This forced them to adopt several inelegant solutions to their aerodynamic and power problems as they didn’t have the time to further engineer their aircraft in the time frame presented . An example of this was their wing design that was simplistic at best. Concorde’s wing looked simple but in fact, it was a complex marvel of design providing the plane with both high speed performance and an acceptable slow speed control-ability. The Soviet wing didn’t perform well at approach and landing speeds and they were forced to install retractable canards to improve this. The second was that the Concorde team were working with a new and cutting edge engine, the Rolls-Royce/Snecma Olympus engine. This was the culmination of decades of advanced high performance engine design. This engine allowed Concorde to “super cruise” or cruise at Mach 2 speeds without the assistance of an afterburner (reheats for our UK friends). Yes, Concorde used an afterburner for transitioning through trans sonic speeds but didn’t require it for Mach 2 cruise. The Soviets, try as they might, didn’t have access to this technology. Soviet engine technology was still in its infancy and most of it was derived from an initial set of Rolls-Royce RB.41 Nene engines that the UK gave then in the late 1940s. This left the Soviets with the Kuznetsov NK-144. This engine compared to the Olympus was down right primitive and the TU-144 could only achieve and maintain supersonic speed with the afterburners lit. This swallowed up enormous amounts of fuel, hurting the aircraft’s range significantly. The engines also tended to become damaged by heat due to the constant use of the afterburners. Finally, the interiors simply couldn’t match what the Concorde produced. The cabin Environmental systems were simplistic, flawed and often failed all together, making the cabin uncomfortably hot. In fact when the aircraft did begin its short career as a passenger aircraft most of the scheduled flights were canceled due to the environmental system breaking down. Another issue was that the Kuznetsov engines were very loud, that coupled with poor cabin insulation made the cabin uncomfortably loud and the few passengers that actually flew on the TU-144 wore earplugs! The TU-144 wasn’t an abject failure. It is incredible what the Soviets were able to produce with the technology they had available to them. However, the jet was unreliable enough that it was never used on routes outside the USSR and was pulled out of service all together in 1978. - lifted from Quora.

@marcusdamberger Рік тому

Next time your at Le Bourget, note the difference in the size of the passenger windows on the two Concorde's they have. One has larger windows than the other. They decided after the prototype (larger windows) they would reduce the size of the windows to limit depressurization; to give more time for passengers to don their masks on. i.e. give them more time to be conscious and able to put a mask on in time before complete depressurization. At the altitudes the Concorde flew that happens faster, so by limiting the window size you limit how quickly air escapes.

Fascinating information and footage eg interesting to hear that the Tupolev needed to keep its afterburners operating while in supersonic flight mode compared to the Concorde which only needed afterburners to accelerate to supersonic speed and then afterburners could be turned off while cruising supersonically. This made the Concorde much more fuel economic. Another great video Paul!

@alexlo7708 Рік тому

Tu144 uses turbofan with augmented while Concord uses turbojet. I think Tupolev had this idea becuase he might have parallel design in hand. And this design needs afterburning turbofan engines. Later it was exposed as Tu160.
