The emergency landing system could be at the origin of the bomber crash
On January 22, the Tu-22M3 bomber unleashed a fireball while it was clear. he was trying to land in a snowstorm at Olenya Air Base
A Western aviation expert said that most badysts think "the rate of descent is too high for a landing, which suggests that the pilot did not know what his attitude was.
in the final – the visibility was rather bad, so that clearly indicates that it was a fault in the ILS. the jet broke in half at impact, "said the expert.
"It may be a broken ILS.When traveling, follow the ILS indicators to maintain the correct descent angle and rate of descent.The descent was too fast, usually when the height is about 30 meters, the power is reduced and the nose of the device slows down, "he added.
Tu-22M3 Backfire supersonic attack bomber struck the runway, broke the rear of the aircraft and threw the ground badpit while the rest of the aircraft exploded .
The expert also noted that: "He [piloto] flew with the Backfire to the track in the same way that an F / A-18 landed on an aircraft carrier deck. said he did not know how high he was and could even have a broken ILS.The failure could come from the ground equipment or ILS receiver of the jet – impossible to say it now with certainty. Official story is that he tried landing too heavy.It is possible, but if it is too heavy, it slows down using more power and angle. attack, that is to say that the nose of the aircraft is raised.For me it seems not to know how fast it was coming down.
Russian military investigators opened the investigation and the company Tupolev, the manufacturer of the bomber, announced that its specialists would join the investigation.
