The morning of 16/7/1951, the Captain Petr Vusov, 1619 Constitution of the Northern Air Fleet had taken off from Murmansk, by a pair of La-11, for a routine coastal patrol. The first 30 minutes of flight passed around as usual, but suddenly the chief, said that the part of the New Earth at a height of 4,000 meters above sea level, a strange object moving slowly. According to the testimony of the head of "the speed of the object was so small, about 100 km / h, which originally went to a small aircraft, but approaching the goal, the pilot saw a large object odd-shaped gray disk with a diameter of about 20 counts without bringing transnational any country, while observing a powerful reinforcement of artillery which deflected downwards. Immediately the team leader told the basis for an unknown object on the sea. During the attack, possibly a pilot a "flying disc" that saw the approaching fighters threatening and immediately changed course. But Captain Petr Vusov, has taken the decision to attack the strange object, and managed to make a burst of cannon (of 23 mm) but without causing any damage, while returning back to the goal, received a message from the heart the administration to immediately halt the engagement and return to base, keeping full radio silence.
Returning to base, was welcomed by some people in civilian clothing, Petr Vusov first thoughts were that it acted in accordance with the regulations in these cases, but the times it was weird! All ended well with an explicit mandate non-dissemination of the event. On the same day the Vusov, he was seconded to the Pacific Fleet, and the Khabarovsk and Ivanchenko and got promotion!
After the defeat of Germany, the allies have not found any documents about the existence of flying saucers, and concluded that all the flying saucers was another propaganda weapon for the Germans. S;; this case, the Soviets have been more fortunate because their hands had almost the entire team which is developing the flying saucers, led by the same I. Mayer, who hid from the SS in a cellar. All files on the disk and the technical staff were transferred to S. Union, further development of flying saucers.
In 1946 the talented graduate Lt. Michael Dubik, a graduate mechanical engineer of the Military Aviation Academy has a mandate to translate technical texts unusual from the German and Russian. The Dubik kept secret for over half a century. After careful study and documentation TSaGI and superior command to build a flying saucer, set up the design office-08. The development program held in complete secrecy. The project brought codename 'sponge' or MI-6.
Initially, the MA-6 is equipped with a turbo RD-10: basically it is a copy of the German Jumo 004B1, but quickly abandoned due to low thrust provided. And it came to use the English engines Nene 1, which since 1947 is produced in the USSR under the name of RD-45 and yield 2040 pounds of thrust.
The first flight took place in complete secrecy at one of the northern airports with the deafening sound of three jet engine after a short roll, the album took off. The album had a much higher profile than any fighter of the era. The disc could carry a large quantity of weapons load time, and move at speeds of 100 km / h and perform maneuvers such as turning virtually in one place. After successful tests it was decided to build some drives. With a diameter of 25 feet, had a cockpit at the top of his radar gun and four turrets at the bottom of the disc. The modernized album was a great performance and thrust to weight was significantly faster than the original. The German technicians were able to actually use the whole diameter of the disk thus acts as a flying wing. He had control of the propulsion system and variable nozzle thrust (this in 1948!).
The "flying saucers" was decided to use them as flying tanks. Where an interception record will take off quickly, winning in a very short amount of time and with the help of radar would detect the B-29, which may be brought nuclear bombs.
A total of 12 discs and supplies two degrees. The crew of each disk initially consisted of 8 subjects, of which 4 were pilots of a gun turrets, a radar operator, navigator, second pilot and commander. All vessels were making continuous testing eg operation of the radar gun, etc. This has resulted and nearly involvement with La-11 in 1951. After this incident all the boats brought more Coats of arms.
In the autumn of 1952, ended the test program, and decided to manufacture and import them to combat squadrons.
But in March 1953 Stalin died and the situation has changed considerably. The Khruschev, who has come to the government, rather rockets than any other weapon system of the time. According to the logic, a missile with a nuclear warhead could replace an entire battalion of tanks. If an anti-aircraft missile, theoretically it can destroy an enemy plane, then we need the fighter squadrons of MiG-15? (That cost the Soviet air force after a decade left no modern aircraft in the arsenal). For the sake of this logic, canceled the development of several fighter aircraft.
The same conclusion was reported by "flying saucers". Of those vessels removed all equipment and valuable devices. After it was decided to sink off the coast of Spitsbergeb, the bottom of which, presumably, are to this day.
