Myasishchev Aircraft

What was A-209 ?.
I don't think there was ever such a thing as a "Myasishchev A-209".

The only A-209 I know is a Mukhamedov multipurpose twin-engine project, which was to be marketed under the company name Aero-M, and also existed in the A-209M variant. I do not know your source, but it is possible that a Western magazine got mixed up betwen Myasishchev and Mukhamedov. Or perhaps Mukhamedov designed the A-209 for Myasishchev initially? The number "209" would fit in nicely in Myasishchev's "200" series which comprise designs M-200 to M-207. I could find no evidence for such a scenario, however.

Thanks,and for me,I must complete its list,soon I will.

Please note that the book on Mukhamedov does NOT mention an "A-209AL", and so I prefer to remove that designation from my post for now.

The work is in progress.
 
A lot of details and variants are missing:
  • VM-2 was the DVB-102-2.
  • VM-4 was the DVB-102D(N).
  • VM-18 was the DB-4-108.
  • VM-19 was the VB-109. (the mistake "WB-" probably comes from a German language source).
  • DVB-202 was both the VM-22 and the VM-22A.
  • VM-24 was also designated RB-17 and DSB-17 (as you said), but also IDD-17.
  • You forgot the VM-25 (also known as the SDB or Aircraft "M") a 1951 pre-project for the M-2 bomber with swept wings and a butterfly tail, which came before the M-25.
  • The M-25 can be broken down into four variants: the M-4, the Izdeliye 103 record version, the M-4-2 tanker conversion, and the 4M with modified armament configuration.
  • You forgot the VM-26, in fact the TWO VM-26 projects that came before the M-26: one was a 1951 transport with 2 TV-2F turboprops, the other was a 1952-53 long-range fast bomber based on the M-4 but smaller and lighter.
  • The M-26 was a 1960, not 1951, project.
  • I have the "M-28" as VM-28, and it also carried the designations DVE, Izdeliye 28 and 2M.
  • The M-29 was also the M-6P.
  • What you call "M-30-II", I have as another M-30 and M-30-1.
  • M-31 and M-32 can also be found as VM-31 and VM-32.
  • The M-36 (also designated the M-6) came in about fifteen different variants and projects: 3M, 3MS(-1), 3MS-2, 3MN(-1), 3MN-2, 3MR, 3MT, 3MYe, 3MD (M-6D, M-6K-14), 3M-5, 3M2-2, 3M2-3, 3M2-3A, 3M2-4 and 3M2-5.
  • M-37 was the same as Izdeliye 201M.
  • M-38 is not known for certain, but may have been the projected 3M-M flying boat version.
  • M-40 came into four variants: M-40, M-40A, M-40B and M-40G.
  • There was M-41 but also M-41A.
  • There was M-42 but also M-42A.
  • M-45 was divided into M-45A and M-45B.
  • M-48 was also designated VKA-23.
  • The M-50 was not built, and the prototype we know was actually the M-50A.
  • The unflown M-52 prototype was the M-52A, but there was also an M-52K project.
  • The M-55 was actually developed from both the M-53 and M-56. Four variants were studied: M-55, M-55A, M-55B and M-55V.
  • Besides the M-56, there were also M-56K and M-56R projects.
  • M-59 was actually designated M-59K.
  • Besides the M-60, a nuclear-powered flying boat version designated M-60M was also studied.
  • There were TWO M-61 projects: a 1958 supersonic air-to-ground cruise missile, and a later, unspecified one (possibly a pilotless bomber).
  • You forgot the M-62, which was a long-range supersonic bomber project.
I have only given the basic designations, but if you need details about a certain variant, please let me know.

Also, Myasishchev projects that did not receive any VM- or M- designations are as follows:
  • Pe-2A
  • Pe-4, Pe-4A
  • Pe-8
  • DVB-402
  • LK-1
  • M-2 (= 1M)
  • MK (Myasishchev Krylataya)
 
About your first part of the second series:
  • M-10 has been listed but I have no info.
  • M-15 was PERHAPS related to the Polish "Belphegor" agricultural aircraft.
  • There were FOUR, not three, M-17 Stratosfera prototypes. Also, M-17R and M-17RM Sokol was the first designation for what became the M-55 Geofisika.
  • M-19 can also be found as the MG-19.

I re-set the second series,any additions or corrections are welcome.
 
What was A-209 ?.
I don't think there was ever such a thing as a "Myasishchev A-209".
The only A-209 I know is a Mukhamedov multipurpose twin-engine project, which was to be marketed under the company name Aero-M, and also existed in the A-209M variant.
The plot thickens, as they say...
The Aero-M (Mukhamedov) A-209 may very well have been a Myasishchev type at some point, after all...
Indeed, while sorting my files, I have just found the A-211 "Gzhelka", presented in 1993... and despite its "A-" prefix it is captioned as a Myasishchev type! These are the only photos of it that can be found, and I wasn't able to find any specs or data for it.

Missing from your second M- list:
  • M-28: last M-4 development; double deck for passengers, estimated capacity of 380 passengers. Never completed.
  • M-29: double-decked airline/military passenger plane based on 3M.
  • M-48: possibly reused from the OKB-23 designation for the same "Mini-Shuttle" project.
  • M-56R: recce/scout project.
  • M-70 (2): cargo-passenger transport aircraft for Iran (IR-56).
  • M-92 "Kaira": passenger transport project.
  • M-99 "Aist": high-wing passenger transport project.
  • M-22, M-26, M-27, M-50, M-53 (mentioned but no details).
Also, the M-33 is in error; it belongs to the first series. I have another M-33 as a "tailless medium bomber project" but I don't know if it belongs to the OKB-23 or the EMZ series.

Kinda like Vilga.

Many thanks,I correct it.
 
Regarding what I wrote above:
  • About M-56R. This was a recce version of the M-56K bomber, therefore from the FIRST (OKB-23) series, not EMZ.

  • I have found the M-22: it is also known as the "KZ" project, a twin-fuselage high-flying aircraft with a push-pull engine configuration, part of a series of studies for a planned world record flight (along with the M-55RD and the LK-RD).

Дорогой Старгейзер, кто составлял этот список? Очень много ошибок и неточностей. Многие инициативные работы представляются как темы ЭМЗ. В июне выйдет книга по самолетам и проектам ОКБ-482 Мясищева.

Dear Stargazer, who compiled this list? There are many mistakes and inaccuracies. Many initiative works are presented as EMZ topics. A book on the aircraft and projects of OKB-482 Myasishchev will be published in June.

@ucon :
Дорогой Костя, это попытка исправить некоторые ошибки или упущения в списке Хешама, но это все еще работа. На этом форуме мы пытаемся объединить наши мысли и ресурсы, чтобы "заполнить пробелы", так сказать, мы полагаемся на наши собственные книги, журналы и онлайн-контент (иногда ошибочный), и поэтому мы обязаны сделать несколько ошибок по пути. Мы исправляем ошибки и пытаемся улучшить список по мере продвижения (например, я исправил свою ошибку в М-56Р чуть выше вашего сообщения). Кроме того, не забывайте, что большинство из нас НЕ говорят по-русски, и даже если книги существуют, они не представляют большой ценности, если их содержание невозможно прочитать!Новость о книге ОКБ-482 — это хорошая новость, но я считаю, что это период, который уже наиболее известен. ОКБ-23 тоже довольно хорошо документирован. Но чего действительно не хватает, так это окончательного тома по ЭМЗ!

Translated via Google from this:
Dear Kostya, these are an attempt at correcting some of the mistakes or omissions in hesham's list, but it is all a work in progress. On this forum we try to put our minds and our resources together to "fill the gaps", so to speak, we rely upon our own books, magazines, and online contents (sometimes erroneous) and therefore we are bound to make a few mistakes along the way. We correct the mistakes and try to improve the list as we go (I corrected my mistake on M-56R just above your message, for instance). Also, do not forget that most of us do NOT speak Russian, and even if books exist, they are of little value if their contents can't be read!
The news about the OKB-482 book is good news, but I believe it's the period that is already the best known. OKB-23 is pretty well documented too. What is really missing is a definitive volume on EMZ, though!
