The Russians have a new missile for fighters — the Ukrainian Armed Forces showed the wreckage of the "Product 180"

 

Su—35S

The Ukrainian military said: Russia has begun using a new ultra-long—range air-to-air missile, the Product 180, or K-77M (R-77M). The evidence is a photo of the wreckage, which the Ukrainian Armed Forces published after one of these missiles apparently missed its target or was shot down.

Photo of the wreckage of "Product 180"

What kind of "beast" is this? In fact, this is a major upgrade of the old R-77 ("product 170"), which the Russians have been using for a long time. But the new version is a completely different level. She has:

- The new dual—mode engine means it can fly at cruising speed for a long time and accelerate sharply on approach to the target.  

- Improved active radar homing head — searches for and clings to the target itself, regardless of the fighter's radar.  

- Redesigned tail unit — better maneuverability and stability over long distances.

The claimed range is up to 190 km, making it one of the longest—range missiles in the Russian arsenal. It was created specifically for the Russian fifth-generation Su—57, so that it could destroy targets before they noticed it, especially 4++ generation aircraft like the F-15EX, F-16V or Rafale.

But the most interesting thing is that in one of the photos, for the first time, the Su—35S VKS with the suspension of these missiles is clearly visible. That is, even without waiting for the full deployment of the Su-57, the Russians have already begun to put the K-77M on their best "fourth" fighters.

What does this mean for Ukraine?  

Obviously, the threat from the air is becoming more serious. Now Russian pilots can attack from a greater distance without entering the range of the Ukrainian air defense. And this forces the Ukrainian Armed Forces to reconsider tactics, better mask their radars and, possibly, accelerate the acquisition of more modern fighters.

So the Product 180 is not just a new rocket. This is a new stage in the air war. And now every duel in the sky can begin long before visual contact.

The US Air Force tested AI in combat: the machine chose targets for the pilots

The US Air Force has taken another step towards the future — for the first time they have tested a system in which artificial intelligence selects combat targets in conditions as close as possible to real combat.

This happened during a four-day exercise called Experiment 3 last month. According to the BBC, it was a real breakthrough — the debut of a "new methodology" that had never been used before. Simply put, they rewrote the rules of the game.

Previously, pilots and analysts spent hours poring over data to decide where to fly, who to attack, and in what order. AI now analyzes information flows in seconds, from satellites to radars and intelligence, and suggests priority targets on its own. And not just "there's a tank there," but: "this object poses the greatest threat, it has weak protection, and destroying it will give a strategic advantage."

In the exercises, the AI not only found targets, but also helped to build an attack plan: calculated routes, assessed risks, and suggested optimal weapons. All this is in real time, when the situation is changing every minute.

Because in a real battle, especially against a strong opponent like China or Russia, the military will not have time for long planning. You need to make decisions faster than the enemy. AI allows you to "win at pace."

So far, the final decision remains with the human — the pilot or commander can agree with the AI or reject its recommendation. But one thing is clear: the pilots of the future will work in tandem with artificial intelligence, as with a smart partner who sees everything and thinks faster.

This is no longer fiction. This is Experiment 3, and it has shown that the war of the 21st century will be smart, fast... and controlled by algorithms.

China's mysterious plane and its analogues: new challenges in the aviation industry

AG600

New mysteries are emerging in the world of aviation. One of them is an unknown aircraft, which is supposedly being tested by China. Although there is very little information about it yet, experts have already begun to compare it with other projects in China, especially the amphibious flying boat AG600. This machine is designed to perform a wide range of tasks, from supply to search and rescue operations, especially over the South China Sea.

Apparently, the new mysterious device may also be focused on coastal operations. Some experts suggest that it may be an ekranoplane – an aircraft that uses the shielding effect to move over the water surface. Such devices are ideal for fast cargo delivery, patrols, and even military operations in coastal waters.

Although China has been developing its own aviation technologies for several years, the appearance of the new device has aroused the interest of the international community. Especially if it really has characteristics similar to the AG600. The latter has already proved its effectiveness in test flights and has become a symbol of the country's growing technological potential.

Recall that history knows of many cases of aircraft disappearing without a trace – for example, the missing Boeing 777 Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, the exact location of which became known only a few years later. However, in the case of the new Chinese device, we are not talking about a loss, but about a hidden development, around which many theories are being formed.

Ekranoplanes are expected to be able to become an important element in China's security and logistics system, especially in the strategically important South China Sea. If the information about the testing is confirmed, it could become one of the most significant events in the aviation industry in recent years.

Boeing is in talks to resume production of the C-17 military transport aircraft

C-17 Globemaster III

Boeing is considering the possibility of resuming production of the famous C-17 Globemaster III military transport aircraft, which has proven itself to be indispensable in carrying out strategic and tactical tasks. The aircraft is distinguished by its ability to take off and land at short airfields, as well as carry heavy loads at jet speed, which makes it extremely in demand in modern military operations.

In the face of growing global threats and the increasing need for fast and efficient logistics, many military departments are interested in expanding the fleet of such aircraft. The C-17 is capable of delivering bulky equipment, troops and humanitarian supplies to the most remote and inaccessible regions, making it a unique tool for strategic mobility.

However, resuming production of the C-17 is a complex and expensive process. The production line was closed in 2015, and it will take considerable time and investment to restart it. In addition, it is necessary to update the supply of components, certify and adapt the aircraft to modern requirements.

Nevertheless, Boeing is actively negotiating with military and government agencies to assess the demand and financing opportunities for the project. If the decision to resume production is made, it will be an important step in strengthening the strategic aviation mobility of the United States and its allies.

Russia has developed the high-altitude aviation cruise missile X-69

Multifunctional low-visibility high-altitude aviation cruise missile of the new generation X-69

It was created in the GosMKB Raduga named after A.Ya. Bereznyak. It is designed to destroy a wide range of ground-based stationary targets with known location coordinates before launch and with previously known information signs of the target area.The rocket has a close to square cross-section. This, firstly, facilitates its placement in the internal armament compartments of fifth-generation fighters, and secondly, the fuselage of this type, combined with other design features, reduces the radar visibility of the missile. The fuselage is 4.19 m long, the width and height with folded wing and tail consoles are 40 cm, and the wingspan is 2.45 m.

The X-69 rocket is equipped with a combined navigation and automatic control system (SNAU) based on a free-form inertial system (BINS), integrated with consumer navigation equipment (NAP) of information from commercial satellite navigation systems (SNS) GLONASS and GPS NAVSTAR, as well as with an integrated radio-technical altitude and speed meter (FARC) and opticalelectronic system (OE-M). A four-channel electromechanical steering gear is used as an executive element of the SNAU.The mainline dual-circuit turbojet engine accelerates the X-69 to 700-1000 km/h. The maximum flight range is 290 km, the height above the earth's surface, depending on the terrain, is 50-300 m.The X-69 missile can be part of the onboard means of destruction of Su-57 fighters, as well as placed on the external suspension of generation 4++ and 4+ Su-35, Su-30MK, Su-34, MiG-35, MiG-29K and others aircraft.

Specifications:

- Launch range, km: 290

- Flight speed, number of M (km/h): 0.8 (1000)

- Type of warhead: penetrating or cluster

- Mass of the warhead, kg: 310 or 300

- Guidance system: a free-of-charge integrated system with the consumer's navigation system + satellite navigation system + optoelectronic final guidance system OE-M

- Launch weight of the rocket, kg: up to 770

- Length x width x height x wingspan of the rocket, m: 4.19 x 0.4 x 0.4 x 2.45

Russia's use of a new type of subsonic X-69 air-to-surface cruise missile has raised fears in Kiev and the West that the Russian Aerospace Forces have acquired weapons even "more dangerous" than the Kinzhal hypersonic ballistic missile. It was the X-69 that was used by the Russian military for strikes that destroyed the transformer, turbines and generators of the Tripoli thermal power plant near the Ukrainian capital, military analysts at the American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) concluded.A special "danger" in terms of consequences for the Ukrainian side is the fact that the X-69 is very difficult to detect with air defense systems, since the missile is capable of maintaining an altitude of only about 20 meters when following the target.

Russia to resume production of upgraded Tu-160

Tu-160

The Russian military-industrial complex, unlike the production facilities of NATO countries, can afford the modernization of aircraft, which will provide new strategic advantages.

The Tu-160M standard incorporates completely new avionics, NK-32 series engines, and advanced weapons systems such as the X—101/102 cruise missiles and the X-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic missiles. At the same time, the new version of the missile carrier will retain all the advantages of the original Tu-160 model range, which are now being effectively used in the military area.

The Tu-160 strategic bomber with variable wing sweep is the main long-range aircraft. It is designed to destroy the most important targets in remote military geographical areas with nuclear and conventional weapons. The program for the reproduction of the Tu-160 in a modernized form, the Tu-160M— was launched by decision of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The specialists have fully digitized the design documentation, restored the technology of vacuum welding of titanium products, resumed production of airframe assemblies, formed a new cooperation and prepared everything necessary for the start of production.

Chinese J-35 fighter jet launched from an aircraft carrier

 The Chinese Shenyang J-35 stealth fighter made its first launch using an electromagnetic catapult (EMALS) from the Fujian aircraft carrier at the end of March 2025. 

If this is later officially confirmed by the Chinese authorities, this event could be a turning point in China's naval aviation capabilities by significantly expanding the operational reach of the People's Liberation Army (PLAN) Naval Forces. This event followed months of J-35 observations at ground-based aircraft carrier simulation facilities and static exposure aboard Fujian, which represents an important step towards the full operational integration of stealth aircraft into China's carrier strike groups.

Black Hawk helicopters can now fly independently

Black Hawk helicopters can now fly independently.Black Hawk helicopters can now fly without pilots using the new Matrix artificial intelligence technology.                         

The aviation era is entering a new phase marked by breakthroughs in artificial intelligence and autonomy. One of the most significant recent achievements has been the demonstration of the ability of the legendary American UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters to fly without pilots on board. This is not just another step in the development of unmanned systems.; This is a transformation of one of the most recognizable and widely used rotorcraft in the world, opening up completely new horizons for military and potentially civilian operations. At the heart of this revolution is an advanced artificial intelligence technology known as Matrix, developed by Sikorsky, a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin.The UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter is itself an icon of military aviation. Being in service with the US Army and many other countries since the late 1970s, it has proven itself to be an incredibly reliable, versatile and hardy machine. The Black Hawks have participated in countless operations around the world, performing a wide range of tasks, from transporting troops and supplies to medical evacuation, search and rescue missions, and fire support. Its rugged design, excellent flight characteristics, and ability to operate in the harshest environments have made it an ideal platform for integrating advanced autonomous systems. Choosing Black Hawk for such tests highlights the desire to modernize the existing, time-tested fleet of vehicles, rather than create completely new platforms from scratch, which significantly accelerates and reduces the cost of innovation.A number of factors are driving the development of autonomous capabilities for helicopters like the Black Hawk. First of all, it is the desire to improve flight safety and reduce risks for the crews. Flying in difficult weather conditions, at night, in conditions of poor visibility (dust, smoke, fog) or in active combat zones is fraught with great danger for pilots. An autonomous system capable of taking over control or even completely completing a mission without a human on board can dramatically change the situation, allowing you to perform tasks that were previously considered too risky. In addition, automation reduces the burden on pilots during long or routine flights, allowing them to focus on more important aspects of the mission, such as tactical planning or weapon system management. This also opens up the possibility of reducing the number of crew, which can be crucial in the face of a shortage of qualified pilots.Sikorsky's Matrix technology is not just an advanced autopilot, but a full-fledged artificial intelligence system designed for flight control. It integrates a set of hardware and software tools. The hardware includes a variety of sensors (lidars, visible and infrared cameras, radars, inertial navigation systems, GPS) and powerful on-board computers. The software is complex algorithms that process data from sensors in real time, create a detailed three–dimensional picture of the environment, plot a safe flight route, taking into account the terrain, obstacles and dynamically changing conditions, and generate commands for helicopter control systems. Matrix is designed as an "Optionally Piloted Vehicle" (OPV) system. This means that the helicopter can fly both under pilot control and completely autonomously, or in a mixed mode when the AI helps the crew. Pilots can take control at any time or transfer it to the system. This flexibility is a key advantage, allowing you to adapt the automation level to your specific mission and conditions.              

The development and testing of autonomous Black Hawks has been underway for several years, often in collaboration with the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), in particular, under the ALIAS (Aircrew Laboratory In-System Automation System) program.                     

ALIAS's goal was to create a universal automation suite that could be relatively easily integrated into various existing aircraft, both airplanes and helicopters, to reduce crew workload and improve safety. Sikorsky used a specially modified S-70 helicopter (the civilian version of the Black Hawk), known as the SARA (Sikorsky Autonomy Research Aircraft), as a flying laboratory for testing Matrix algorithms. These efforts culminated in historic flights, when the UH-60 Black Hawk, equipped with the Matrix system, took to the air for the first time and performed a series of maneuvers without a single person on board. These demonstration flights included autonomous takeoff, flight along a preset route, flying around simulated obstacles, selecting and landing at an unplanned point, as well as autonomous landing. The capabilities of performing typical missions, such as cargo delivery on an external sling and even flight simulation in a degraded visual environment where human vision would be severely limited, were demonstrated. The system has shown the ability to analyze the surrounding space, identify safe landing zones and perform complex maneuvers with high accuracy comparable to the actions of an experienced pilot.The operating principle of Matrix is based on merging data from multiple sensors. Lidars create an accurate map of terrain and obstacles, cameras provide visual recognition of objects, radars help in conditions of poor visibility, and inertial and satellite systems are responsible for navigation. Artificial intelligence analyzes all this information, predicts possible developments (for example, the appearance of other aircraft) and makes control decisions – changes course, altitude, speed, controls the pitch of the propellers. The system is capable of not only following a set flight plan, but also dynamically responding to unforeseen circumstances, such as a sudden obstacle or a change in weather conditions, independently choosing the safest and most effective way to continue the mission.

The introduction of such technologies opens up completely new tactical opportunities for the military. Autonomous Black Hawks can be used to supply advanced units in dangerous areas without risking the crews. They can carry out reconnaissance missions or electronic warfare missions deep behind enemy lines. Potentially, such helicopters can be used for medical evacuation of the wounded from the battlefield, where sending a manned vehicle would be suicidal. The ability to work around the clock without restrictions related to pilot fatigue significantly increases operational readiness. In the future, one operator on the ground will be able to control several autonomous helicopters acting as a single "swarm" to perform complex coordinated tasks. This may lead to fundamental changes in the structure of army aviation and tactics of its use.Despite impressive successes, the path to widespread adoption of fully autonomous helicopters has not yet been completed. There are a number of difficult tasks to be solved. It is necessary to develop and approve strict certification procedures for such systems, ensuring their reliability and safety at a level not inferior to manned aviation. Cybersecurity is a critical issue – protecting management systems from hacking or hostile interference. Further improvement of AI algorithms is required, especially in terms of decision-making in non-standard, unforeseen situations that are difficult to model in advance. The psychological aspect is equally important – the formation of trust in autonomous systems among both the military themselves and society as a whole. It is necessary to define the ethical framework for the use of such technologies, especially if we are talking about armed options. The integration of autonomous vehicles into the existing air traffic control system and interaction with manned vehicles will also require new protocols and standards.                

Nevertheless, the first successful Black Hawk flights without pilots clearly show the direction of development of military (and possibly civilian) helicopter aviation. Matrix technology and similar systems promise to make flying safer, more efficient, and more accessible for the most demanding and dangerous tasks, marking a new era in the history of rotorcraft. Combining the time-tested Black Hawk platform with advanced artificial intelligence creates a synergy that will shape the future of vertical takeoff and landing for decades to come.
