MODE OF LANDING OF AN AIRCRAFT ON THE DECK OF AN AIRCRAFT CARRYING SHIP Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: navy aviation and is used for aircraft equipped with an engine with a rotatable nozzle.

SUBSTANCE: the mode of landing of an aircraft on the deck of an aircraft carrying ship is in that aircraft's altitude and flight speed are reduced without leveling of the trajectory. At the moment of contacting of an aircraft with the deck the engine is put on the maximum power setting. The aircraft is hooked with arresting cable of the aerofinisher. At flying up to the ship the mode of controlling of the rotatable nozzle is switch on. The nozzle is deflected upward towards the angle in an interval of 5-14° at the moment of contacting of the aircraft with the deck. The nozzle is put in neutral position after braking of the aircraft. If the aircraft is not hooked with the arresting cable of the aerofinisher the nozzle is left deflected upward for making of an angle of attack at the aircraft's taking off.

EFFECT: decreases the moving speed of an aircraft along the deck, provides reduction of overload, influencing on the pilot and on the aerofinisher, decreases the influence of the engine's gas flow on the thermostable covering of the deck.
