Simulations show that a phenomenon of coplanarity of most energetic subcores of gamma-ray-hadron families found in mountain-based and stratospheric X-ray-emulsion chamber experiments requires to introduce a coplanar particle generation with large transverse momenta in hadron interactions at superhigh energies. Some physical mechanisms are considered. A phenomenological model, which makes it possible to simulate the coplanar particle generation, is presented. Different versions of this model are considered, their features are described and compared with those of models applied by the CORSIKA package. Cosmic-ray experimental data and simulated results are compared. Conclusion on features of hadron interactions at superhigh energies and some predictions with respect to LHC experiments are made.
