most critical since main mid-range aircraft An-12 being currently in operation is now
intensively written off because its service life is served out. For Military and transport
aviation TU-330VT (TU-330VTS) version of baseline cargo a/c is proposed provided
with advanced communication integrated system currently used in Air Force and with
set of equipment designed for loading, unloading and arrangement of standard wheel,

combat machinery and staff with possibility of dropping the staff and ma-
chinery; One variant is the TU-330SE ambulance and evacuation a/c, while another is
the TU-330TZ tanker with "buddy" type and "telescope" type refueling. Additional
versions would feature specialized administrative a/c (compartment + two cars); re-
peater a/c; long-range radar detection; jammer a/c

; reconnaissance and target indica-
tion; or patrol a/c.
According to "Tupolev" PSC if TU-204-330 a/c is taken as native mid-class
transport baseline a/c it is necessary to take into account following pre-conditions of
organizational, technological and economical nature: Task for aircraft production
during special period and for reconditioning of loss Ministry of Defense loss should
be given to aircraft manufacturing companies regarding fully native aircraft only.
Both the aircraft itself and vendor items should be independent of foreign supplies
(especially concerning avionics since state- of- the- art radio -electronics is capable
to "insert" in to any very small element a command device that can cause failure of a
system or entire aircraft any time necessary to a potential enemy).
TU-330 a/c is the most compilable with Air Force and Civil Aviation require-
ments by parameter "transported cargo - range": according to Air Force 72% of
transportation are made with cargo of 20-25 tones for the range of 3000 km; accord-
ing to Gos NIIGAIL-76 is currently carrying not more than 25 tones (up to 90% of
all transportation); According to Russian Military Transport Aviation Command
combat training takes not more than 10% of annual flight hours, while 90% are taken
by transportation in the interest of Ministry of Defense. In this case demand of dif-
ferent types of Armed Forces and, Air Forces are mostly satisfied by mid-class mili-
tary transport aircraft. Today it is obsolete An-12, which could be replaced by TU-
330 a/c according to their demanded lift capacity and flight range; They often
compare TU-330 a/c with Ukrainian An-70 a/c. However such comparison
is not very rightful since these are machines of different classes. But if still to fix a
choice upon An-70 a/c than we should realize that Russia could come across the
problems: Even if An-70s will be supplied from Ukraine to Russia and put into op-
eration these two aircraft are of different classes (An-7- could be related to heavy
military transport a/c and TU-330 - to mid-weight military transport a/c); Ministry
of Defense thinks it is necessary for Russia to have "combined" An-70 and TU-330
a/c fleet (approximately 25-30% and 80-70% of each type of the machines respec-
tively);
The cost of the last version of transport AN-70 a/c (max weight of carried
cargo is equal to 47 tones) is estimated within the range of 62-64 mln. USD, cost of
