Zvezda K-36D
The birth of the basic version of the Zvezda K-36D catapult seat dates back to the late 1960s, when development work was underway on the new Soviet fighter Mikoyan Gurevi. MiG-25 Foxbat. One of the new components that was to be developed for this aircraft was the new catapult seat. The claims were helpful. p & # 345; ísné. The seat should be as light as possible and have reduced dimensions compared to the previous seats, which is why it should be in a tight cockpit [url].=/topic/view/23949/] MiGu-25[/url] could not be bet on the original, the intended size of the KS-3/4 seat, which was used on the aircraft; Suchoj Su-7.
OKB Zvezda has competed for a new seat with the project revolutionary. designed seats K-36. The new seat was designed specifically for you. for the smallest possible dimensions and weight while maintaining high reliability. However, its development also occurred as a result of fail & # 367; tests (failed trial versions K-36A, K-36B and K-36C) to a great delay, which eventually led to the replacement of the K-36 set at MiGu-25 starší osv & # 283; d & # 269; enou seda & # 269; kou KM-1 z MiGu-21.

Technical description of the K-36D seat:
The basic frame of the K-36D catapult seat is made of durable sheet steel (the frame is made of the main pressed plate and a pair of side plates holding the shape of the seat), which is on the inside the back is completed on a light armor. It is attached to the upper part of this skeleton by a deflector (the deflector allows the catapult from the aircraft to be thrown away and not thrown away). the cockpit cover breaks and protects the pilot's head in case of need) equipped with a hollow headrest (its rear part is also equal to 382). armored vehicles), containing emergency equipment for the pilot and pharmacy. The front part of the header is the black box. There are two doors on the sides of the headboard. cylindrical housings housing a pair of retractable stabilizing pylons, which are provided at the ends with stabilizing parachutes.
Under the headboard, a cavity is created in the seat cube. is behind the alcove belt on a pair of rescue parachutes. for the pilot (main and backup). These parachutes are followed by parachute harnesses connected to the main seat belts of their. The mechanization is located on the sides of the parachute box. The parachute harness on the seat of the K-36D is designed to be partially (the pilot puts on the main harness before boarding the aircraft where he gets to the plane). 283; then connects him to a series of short parachute harnesses).On the outside The skeleton of the parachute box is placed on a pair of tilting restraints. throwing hands preventing the pilot from leaving the catapult position.
The basis of the seat part of the seat is the skeleton-shaped space in which the CO2-inflated rescue boat and the rest of the pilot's emergency equipment are stored. This space is covered by a sliding rail plate on which the pilot is sitting and the pilot's emergency equipment is attached to it by means of the main seats and parachute harness and after the ejection of the pilot and detachment of the pilot is released from the seat and to the landing under the pilot hangs on the station. # 283; two-meter rope & # 283;).

In the middle of the seat part between the pilot's legs there is a retractable column with a pair of pull-out catapult sequences.

Nozzle stabilization for proper alignment of the seat before extending the stabilization parachute (This system is often used in later versions of the K-36DM, and dismounted in export versions of the seat).
The catapult sequence of the K-36 seat is as follows (begins with the pull of the catapult seat handle):
1) The seat tensioners and seat belts are pulled and the pilot is fixed to the seat.
2) The front seat post extends and the restraint folds down. throwing his hands (the pilot was instructed to keep his hands on the catapult handrails). The catapult seat system discards the cockpit canopy and checks that it is indeed discarded (if the cover could not be discarded, the head deflector will extend)
3) The rocket engine seat is engaged and the brakes on the guide rails are released.
4) The seat and the pilot are leaving the aircraft. Okay & # 382; it & # 283; pylons with stabilizing parachutes are extended.
5) After stabilization and the necessary braking of the seat at the top of the ballistic curve, the lashing straps are released. ; and boxes with emergency equipment for the pilot, who separates himself from the seat.
6) The pilot's main parachute opens automatically (backup must be opened by the pilot). 382; is secured by a barometric opening device set at a height of 500 meters and inflates the rescue boat.
In the basic version of the K-36D, the seat has characteristics of 0-0 (in the case of a catapult, the height of the minimum height is required). # 283; 100 meters & # 367;)
