Footage has appeared online showing an American 5th generation F-35C Lightning II carrier-based fighter and a generation "4++" F/A-18E/F Super Hornet carrier-based fighter escorting a low-altitude pass over the Sea of Japan by the most advanced Russian long-range anti-submarine aircraft Il-38N.
Military expert Evgeny Damantsev noted that the Il-38N is equipped with a modern Novella-P-38 targeting and search complex (PPC).
The anti-submarine subsystem received transport and launch mortars for setting up passive non-directional radio-hydroacoustic buoys RGB-41, directional RGB-48, magnetometric RMB-81 and hydrological RTB-93, as well as an onboard magnetometric complex and a hydroacoustic underwater space monitoring terminal.
The Novella-P-38 system is also equipped with a turret-mounted multispectral optoelectronic complex "Lannar-A" operating in the TV/low-level TV/IR ranges, a magnetometric complex, a radar complex with a detection range of surface targets of the "destroyer" type at a range of up to 320 km and a "missile boat" - up to 200 km, UAV kamikaze - up to 50 km.
The Il-38 aircraft is designed to search, detect and destroy enemy submarines. It was developed on the basis of the Il-18D passenger aircraft.
Il-38 characteristics:
Take-off weight - 68 tons, combat radius - 2200 km, practical flight ceiling - 8000 m, combat load - up to 8400 kg of anti-submarine bombs, torpedoes, sea mines, cruising speed of the aircraft - 400 km/h, maximum - 610 km/h, flight range - 6500 km.
