The first board of Sukhoi Su-24 took to the air in winter 1970. The story of its creation and flight tests can not be called cloudless, but the output will get the machine to which Russia is proud of today.

1. FIRST
Creation of the Su-24 - history of innovation. For the first time in the history of Soviet aviation aircraft are not developed, and the aviation complex - to redesign the machine, engines and weapons for it. The onboard equipment also created as a set. New Sioux developed around the first integrated system of avionics Soviet Union bombopritselom, weapons control system and navigation system connected with a computer. The Su-24 was also the first Soviet aircraft equipped with ejector at zero speed and zero-height chair K-36D, he had command system bailout, which could be activated by any member of the crew.
2. ACCIDENT
Creating innovative machine could not be trouble-free. In the case of the Su-24 crash pursued the project one by one. This was due to the use of new materials and technologies. So, at the time one of the first production aircraft due to the fact that the compressor blades were extended under the influence of stress on the body and struck a titanium fire originated. In place of touch and temperature immediately jumped in conditions of excess oxygen metal broke. When burning titanium temperature reaches 3,000 degrees Celsius, and it led to the rapid destruction of the aircraft. The crew left the car, but at the same time co-driver was killed. The Su-24 is considered to be difficult to pilot the machine. Already during the flight test was lost 14 Su-24 and Su-24M. After the adoption of the aircraft into service each year going 5-6 accidents and disasters. According to Deputy Chief of the Russian Air Force, Victor Cota, 1998 aircraft of the Su-24 was the most alert aircraft of Russian military aviation
3. SAFETY
The high failure rate of the Su-24 included the creation of new security systems, which again were innovative. For the first time in domestic practice for the two-seater in its class, the Su-24 was applied to the layout of the crew "next" and a new unified ejection seats K-36D, providing salvation to all the range of altitudes and flight speeds, including takeoff and landing modes.
4. Secret
The Su-24 was created in conditions of high secrecy. The first official statement on the existence in the USSR of a new attack aircraft was made chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff US Armed Forces, Admiral Thomas Moorer only in early 1974. The first publication of the Su-24 in the foreign press appeared in 1976, but it was guesswork and theorizing about the possibilities of the aircraft, which was given the code name of NATO «Fencer» (fencer), repelled by the information on the western analogues (F-111, and " Tornado "). Until the mid-80s, no picture of Su-24, did not get through to the media. Declassification of the aircraft due to the participation of the machines in the Afghan war.
5. Unique
Su-24MR does not have a front-line scouts among foreign analogues on the complexity of the resulting intelligence. For example, aircraft RF-4C, forming the basis of a tactical reconnaissance aircraft the US Air Force used the IR station AN / AAS-18, side-looking radar AN / APQ-102, planned for several AFA and promising shooting with high and low altitudes. For electronic intelligence used harnesses AIL AN / ALQ-61 or Litton AN / ALQ-125, but there are no means of laser radiation and intelligence. An American intelligence officer, a lighter and a fixed wing sweep, significantly inferior to the Su-24MR in range and speed at low altitudes.
6. baptism of fire
In the spring of 1984 the Su-24 received its baptism of fire in Afghanistan. "Pure" Su-24 of 149-th Guards Red and Su-24M of 149 th bomber regiment took part in the April strike the "den" Panzhsherskogo Leo Ahmad Shah Massoud. The Su-24 was the only machine frontline bombers, capable of carrying a particularly powerful "fugaski" caliber 1500 kg. The operation in Afghanistan in 1984, the year confirmed the obvious advantages Sukhovsky bomber - the ability to work on distant targets with rear bases and high all-weather capability.
7. for the post
The total serial production of the Su-24 was about 1,400 aircraft. To date, time, Su-24 / Su-24M and is the only type of modern domestic front bomber, form the basis of the shock component of the Air Force tactical aviation of the Russian Federation and Ukraine.
