Report to the Sviatoslav Deparment for Military Equipment- Sector 172:


 * Morozov S-51A prototype (I-515) has been created. A lighter, faster, more maneuverable variant of the existing S-51 air superiority fighter. The weight of the craft has been overall reduced, a micro reactor has replaced the turbine engine design allowing for little to no refueling. The reactor is a Zepeyev B-51 aviation reactor, which has a second to none safety system which includes a fail safe shutdown sequence and extremely powerful power output.

The reactor is encased in a lighter compound but is similar to led, it offers better radiation shielding and is lighter than standard materials. This material has been designated "U-1".

The armemant has been increased, with 4 30mm laser cannons and 6 K-192 air to air missiles. Armor of the craft has been increased aswell, the new building material has replaced the standard material used in aircraft manufacturing. Designated "MDB-7284". It allows better protection against conventional warheads but is lighter than competing materials.

The overall look of the aircraft has changed little to none, the designers worked very hard on not changing the overall look of the aircraft. The prototype will be tested continually.
