The deployment of the shelf Su-30CM began in the Arctic

The Russian Defense Ministry has begun to deploy in the Arctic Circuit regiment of fighters Su-30SM, reported News.

According to the newspaper, the regiment will be part of the Marine aviation Northern fleet (MA SF) and will be based at the airport Severomorsk-3.

“The first two Su-30CMs will arrive at the Severomorsk-3 airfield in the near future. The newly arrived vehicles will be part of the third squadron of the 279-th separate naval fighter aviation regiment (Oiap) MA SF. In the future, as new fighters arrive, it is planned to form a separate aviation regiment out of them, ”the newspaper writes citing a source.

In addition to air-to-air missiles, the fighters will be armed with X-31 supersonic anti-ship missiles. The article notes that the weight of the X-31 is more than 700 kg, the range of its use is more than 200 km, the speed is 2,5 thousand km / h.

Military historian Dmitry Boltenkov: “After the 2008 Guards Fighter Regiment, which was based in Kilp-Yavre of the Murmansk Region, was disbanded in 9, military bases, ships and submarines of the Northern Fleet were covered only by air defense units of the Russian Air Force. But this is not enough. The nearest MiG-31 interceptor fighter squadron covering the Northern Fleet headquarters and its main base in Severomorsk is in Monchegorsk. As the teachings showed, the use of deck fighters Su-33 for patrolling the Barents Sea is ineffective. And the MiG-31 VKS of Russia has its own equally important tasks. Moreover, in the conditions of increased confrontation between Russia and NATO in the upper latitudes, the Northern Fleet clearly lacks strike aircraft in the Barents Sea. ”

Very good. We should have deployed it in Amderma-1. And then in the 90s they started to spray everything. After all, there Mig-31s were based in a decent amount.

Let's hope that in the near future they will return the entire Arctic infrastructure! for they really took up the Arctic quite seriously!

All the same, Amderma is already behind New Earth ... Why are there fighters with a limited radius?

Photo Severomorsk 3 with Yandex maps. Do I alone see SU 30 there? Or will they be put there additionally? Secret everything, sit and think

These are ship Su-33s from the 279th OKIAP.
A sea Su would seem to be painted in a solid dark color.

My family is familiar with polar pilots: Mazuruk, Akkuratov, Kryuchkov .. I remember these names. We lived in Chukotka in the 60s .... I imagine what snowstorm and everything else, BUT, combat aircraft (and they were based on Cape Schmidt), immediately, after the end of the blizzard, put in order! It was!

Hangars beg for another reason. Try to freeze in the cold with your hands without gloves, in the wind, climb into the hatch and tighten a couple of screws there. To the touch. Very funny attraction. In the hangar, even without heating, it is still closed from the wind, and if it is still heated, so that at least 10 is warmer than outside - life would be completely different.
And in the summer, by the way, it's also fun - under the scorching sun, metal burns very well.

Nice, very nice .. I think there will be someone to take care of Marriette, a Norwegian reconnaissance ship that grazes in front of northern bases, so that they don’t forget Vasily Tsymbal. He put a helicopter from the ship into the water

It is clear that the SU-30SM is a great car! But there is a more modern Su-35 - the same type of apparatus. Also multipurpose. So what the fuck is supplying both of their army? Why not switch to the SU-35? What's the point of saturating the videoconferencing with different models, especially since the T-50 is on its way? Again the "goodbye unification" option?
Against the backdrop of grandiose (but in fact empty) scandals with theft at Vostochny Cosmodrome, against the backdrop of hype about corruption and theft at all levels, the situation with the delivery to the army of the same type of different purpose vehicles (armored cars, turntables, planes) looks unambiguous. The dough is being cut and lobbying for the multivariance of technology. In order to support and repair bury under the rubble.
And at the heart of it is the complete incompetence of responsible bureaucrats and the complete scrapping of a unified system of reception criteria for equipment. Simply put - the fish is so rotten from the head that the stench creeps all over the country. And he makes it a little abroad. The story with substandard air finishers is clearly a kapets.

Su 30 releases Irkut, Su35 Komsomolsk. One plant, one plane. Let it be better to rivet two different planes at an accelerated pace than to wait until I break equipment on Irkut, and then create a new one. In addition, I have no confidence in the superiority of Su 35 in the work on the ground.

[erased]

SU-30 and SU-35 are more fighters than attack aircraft.
And your confidence - what is decisive for the videoconferencing? Sorry, Mr. Chief General, I did not know. I repent ...

Su-35S - deep modernization of the basic Su-27S. It is made according to the classical scheme without any "extra" aerodynamic surfaces, such as VGO and brake flap. At the same time, there is OBT. Single. A multipurpose fighter designed more for air superiority. It can hit the ground, but this is not its main task. Initially, the plane was called T-10BM, then it received the Su-35 index. It was planned for export, but in the process of testing it attracted the attention of the RF Ministry of Defense and soon the development and production of a version of the Su-35S for the needs of the RF Air Force was agreed. It is often confused with the first attempt at modernization - the Su-27M (it was also known as the Su-35, but the PGO was installed on it).

Su-30SM - a variant of the Su-30MKI for the Russian Air Force, which, in turn, is a modification of the Su-27UB. Initially, the Su-30 family was created as airplanes of the air defense forces. In the future, they all reoriented to export and were made to meet the needs of customers. Su-30MKI focused on India. Quite quickly received PGO, although initially it was without it, as well as an engine with OBT. Double. A multi-functional fighter with serious ground handling capabilities. It can be hung with a bunch of auxiliary equipment in containers, such as electronic warfare equipment, reconnaissance, target designation. In connection with the presence of a second operator pilot, he can coordinate the actions of other aircraft, being a kind of command post.

It is clear that the SU-30SM is a great car! But there is a more modern Su-35 - the same type of aircraft. Also multi-purpose. So to hell to deliver their army both? Why not switch to the SU-35?

Because
1) The Su-35 in its current form is not a multi-purpose machine. It is a clean fighter and they are supposed to use it. Moreover, we have no modern air fighters in addition to the Su-35. It is possible in the future after modernization and the receipt of an integrated LPTS it will be multi-purpose, but not now.
2) The Su-30 is now also a "bigger" fighter, but it is a two-seater, and after receiving sighting containers it is supposed to be used as a multipurpose aircraft, in this case as an anti-ship missile carrier. In addition, it can be used as a twin.
3) The Su-30 was ready earlier than the Su-35 and, as rightly noted, Tomket is launching it in Irkutsk, and the Su-35 Komsomolsk, it is now possible to re-equip Irkutsk with the Su-35, but it is expensive and it is a waste of time.
4) Do not believe the endless promises about the imminent coming of the T-50. They will go to combat regiments only in 2019-2020, and, unfortunately, there will be few of them. Moreover, they occupy the niche of the Su-35, and not the Su-30. That is, they will complement the Su-35.

Something seems to me that they will not complement the t50 su35s, but will be replaced. A su35s will go more for export.

Perhaps it all depends on the amount of money and on the production capacities in Komsomolsk.
But 98 airborne boards will already be there, and they will obviously be used as clean fighters to gain dominance in the air. Perhaps after the arrival of the hanging containers they will work on the ground, but this, in any case, is a secondary task for them.

But it’s not so easy to sell it, it’s a rather specific aircraft. As long as China took it. Perhaps Vietnam, Indonesia.

[g1v2]

A hundred boards by 2020 was announced long ago. I think that they can still conclude a contract for 48 pieces, while T50 sores will not heal all. But in the future, in my opinion, the su35s will be exported mainly. and t50 - in the vks. Well, there are few buyers for such machines in the world. But like Indonesia seriously claims to su35s, the Indians, too. Still, the joint fighter will not be soon. I doubt about Vietnam. Well, as a result, it was mainly dubbed with the help of Indian contracts, then the finished ones began to rivet. Maybe the sale of su30s will help to finalize something.

Indonesia, yes, India is unlikely, it is more logical for them to follow the path of improving the Su-30. But the Indians are impossible to understand, they have seven Fridays a week, so anything is possible.
Iran is still possible, but after 2020.

And in Nadym, what was it, what kind of airplanes and in what quantity?

Nadym, EMNIP, was used as a jump airfield for the 4th Air Defense Army.

Quote from rudolf

It would be better instead of one or two fighters, warm hangars were built for the rest of the machines. My heart bleeds to see such a technique under the snow with overhanging icicles.

Repeatedly plus! Well, there is a duty link, but hide the rest of the car! After all, the resource will be higher!
