В новом аэропорту Санкт-Петербурга установили российские посадочные радиомаячные комплексы

The equipment is capable of ensuring the safety of airports with any flight intensity

Specialists from "Ruselectronics" have supplied modern landing radio beacon systems to the Levashovo joint-based airport near St. Petersburg, which is being reconstructed for civil aviation flights.

The systems support aircraft takeoffs and landings. They are capable of ensuring the safety of airports with any flight intensity

The equipment was developed by the Chelyabinsk Radio Plant "Polet", which is part of "Ruselectronics" and is among the leading Russian enterprises in the production of radar and navigation equipment for airfields. It consists of a glide path, a course radio beacon, and a DME transponder. Such systems have already been installed in a number of Russian airports during their modernization.

The operating temperature range is from -50 to +50 °C. The instrument landing system of the complexes ensures the approach of aircraft for landing day and night under ICAO meteorological minima I, II categories (decision height 60-30 meters, runway visual range – 800-350 meters) in manual, semi-automatic and automatic control modes.

The products have successfully passed the flight test procedure and confirmed all performance characteristics.

The Levashovo airfield in the Leningrad Region has been a military airfield for many years, but in October 2021, the Ministry of Defense concluded a concession agreement with Gazprom for its reconstruction and the construction of airport terminal complexes for the joint basing of military and civil aviation.

By the end of December 2022, Levashovo received the necessary documents for domestic and international flights and received the first civilian aircraft. However, the final completion of the construction of all facilities and the retrofitting of Levashovo with the necessary air navigation and meteorological equipment, to which mainly Russian manufacturers are involved, is scheduled for the end of 2024.
