A prototype of the SR-10 single-engine light aerobatic
jet trainer aircraft made its first test flight in December 2015. The trainer
airplane is designed by Modern Aviation Technologies (KB SAT) design bureau to
meet the pilot training requirements of the Russian Air Force and private
aircraft operators.
The aircraft is intended to provide elementary and
intermediate flight training for future military fighter aircraft pilots,
athletes and amateur pilots.
Tests on the light trainer plane are currently underway
at the Gromov Flight Research Center in Moscow and the mass production is
expected to start in 2017.

According to the design bureau, a flight hour
aboard the SR-10 trainer costs $2,500, which is three times cheaper compared to
a flight hour aboard the Yak-130 plane, which is worth $8,000.

Development of the light aerobatic jet
trainer
Development of the aircraft began in 2007. A mock-up of
the aircraft was demonstrated at the MAKS-2009 International Aviation and Space
Show held in Zhukovsky, Russia, in August 2009. The aircraft was officially
rolled out in August 2015.

Project
The initiative to develop the perspective of the training
and aerobatic aircraft was launched KB SAT in 2007. The name of the CP-10
means - jet aircraft, with swept wings "-10 °".
Appointment CF CP-10 - the implementation of the basic
flight training for future military aircraft pilots, as well as the training of
pilots, athletes and amateur pilots light jets.
The main stages of implementation of the
"SR-10":
- 2007
- The birth of the concept, the beginning of conceptual design.
- August
2009 - a demonstration of the international air show MAKS-2009 full-size
aircraft layout.
- March
2014 - Participation aircraft project "CP-10" in the open
competition of the Russian Defense Ministry on the plane of initial
training.
- August
23, 2015 - Solemn roll-out of the plane "CP-10" out of the
assembly hall in the presence of representatives of the Ministry of
Defense and the aviation industry of Russia.
- December
25, 2015 - the first flight of "CP-10".

During the maiden flight, KB SAT assessed the stability,
controllability, flight characteristics, and operation of onboard systems and
equipment.
THE FLIGHT TESTS OF THE AIRCRAFT SR-10
December 25, 2015 made the first flight of a prototype
light jet training aircraft "SR-10" created in the design office
"Modern aviation technologies."
During the flight under the program of the first
departure qualitative assessment has been performed:
- Some
flight characteristics;
- stability
and controllability;
- operation
of systems and equipment.
Review test pilot aircraft proved to be a dynamic and
pleasant to pilot.
Characteristics of the aircraft on the execution mode
appropriate to a calculation, equipment and systems are operating normally.
Flight, which are prepared and which we all have been
waiting for, was remarkably casually. The car behaved obediently, although
it is clear that in its flight qualities airplane has great potential and the
main work still lies ahead. Source: kb-sat.ru
SR 10 New Russian jet trainer First fight
The Russian Ministry of Defence is expected allocate up
to RUR2.5bn (approximately $34m) for the SR-10 jet trainer development project.
A total of 16 units are planned to be procured for the Russian Air Force.

support to SR-10 forward-swept-wing jet trainer: Here
Excerpt
Moscow. the 14 th of July. AviaPort – Ministry of Defense
of the Russian Federation considered it appropriate to continue the work on the
creation of a light jet of the training aircraft (CF) CP-10 Development LLC
“Design Bureau” Modern aviation technologies “(KB” CAT “), said” AviaPort “an
informed source in the defense . industrial complex According to him, at the
June meeting, the decision on whether to continue the development of promising
light of the training aircraft SR-10 (SR-10 – the plane jet with forward-swept
at 10 degrees). in pursuance of this decision should be taken to provide
scientific and technical support for new development and strengthening control
over its execution. also, the meeting decided to hold the next year’s state
joint tests (ICG) SR-10. The interviewee recalled that the December 25, 2015
the first aircraft SR-10 made its first and second flights, conducted in the
air 40 and 20 minutes, respectively. As of today, the developer completed the
stage of factory tests aircraft SR-10 and began the stage of preliminary tests
in May this year (PI) with a holding of about 30 test flights at the agreed
with the representatives of the Ministry of Defence program. Expected
completion of Phase PI for about the end of July-August this year, after which
the aircraft completion by the results of the tests will be carried out with
the introduction of some of the required changes.
Training aircraft production SR-10 will begin at the end
of 2017: Here
Excerpt
The first primary trainer aircraft SR-10 for the Russian
aerospace forces will be released at the end of 2017, by 2020 it is planned to
transfer to the test batch of about 20 vehicles. ToldTASS representative of the
design bureau “Modern aviation technologies” ( “CAT”), where he developed the
SR-10.
“Production of the first machine is scheduled for the end
of 2017. According to the plans of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian
Federation in 2018-2019 a pilot batch of aircraft, about 20 machines that will
be submitted to the state testing should be released. Then start serial
production” – The spokesman said.

The SR-10 monoplane jet trainer aircraft is made of modern composite materials. It features aerodynamic design, which enhances the safety during aerobatic manoeuvres at high altitudes.
It has an overall length of 9.59m and a wing span of
8.40m. The main wings, fitted to the middle section of the fuselage, are swept
forward at an angle of 10°. The flight control surfaces such as ailerons and
flaps, which are attached to the trailing edges of the wings, help provide safe
flight.

The tail assembly has one vertical stabiliser and twin
horizontal stabilisers. A rudder hinged to the vertical stabiliser allows
stable flight.
The aircraft is fitted with a retractable tri-cycle
landing gear comprising a single wheel attached to the nose and two main wheels
underneath the fuselage.
The flight training and aerobatic aircraft is built with
a double cabin, providing comfortable working conditions. It accommodates two
crew members, pilot and instructor, with dual controls in tandem configuration.
The pilots have an unobstructed view through a large canopy.

The ejection seats of Class 0-0 provide safety to the
crew in emergency, while the built-in flight control system is user-friendly.
The aircraft is equipped with catapult chairs K-93. Together with the protective equipment the chairs provide safe escaping of the crew from the aircraft at speeds up to 950 km/h within the limits of operational range of altitudes, including modes V=0, H=0. Automatic devices of the chairs provide safe escaping of the crew from the aircraft for both one and two people. Generally, the technical characteristics of the aircraft and its aircraft performance characteristics conform to the world level. Source: present5.com

Ivchenko Progress, powers the prototype of the SR-10 trainer airplane. The
production aircraft will be powered by a 1.95m-long AL-55 turbofan engine
developed by NPO Saturn.
The AI-25TL has a thrust of 3,792lb, while the AL-55
generates a take-off thrust of 3,880lb.
