In the Russian Air Force received three upgraded MiG-31BM

According to the blog bmpd, in early August, at the disposal of the 22nd Guards Fighter Aviation Regiment of the 303rd Guards Mixed aviation divisions of the 11th Army of the Air Force and Air Defense Air Defense Forces, based at the Central Corner airfield of Primorsky Krai, arrived three more fighter-interceptor MiG-31BMthat have been modernized at the Nizhny Novgorod aircraft building plant "Sokol".

Earlier, the unit received 19 upgraded MiG-31 fighter jets. The regiment retooling on this technique is carried out since December 2015. In its composition there are three squadrons. One of them is armed with MiG-31, the other is Su-27СМ and Su-30М2, the third one is Su-35С and Su-30СМ.

It is assumed that when the MiG-31 is reached in 22, the vehicles will be allocated to a new regiment of two squadrons, which will most likely be located at the Sokolovka airfield of the Primorsky Territory.

Modernization of the MiG-31 is carried out by Sokol NAZ in accordance with two contracts with the country's military department from 1 August 2011 of the year to supply 60 MiG-31BM / BCM to 2019 and November of 2014, to ship 53 aircraft by the end of 2018. In 2012, the 10 upgraded MiG-31 interceptors were handed over, in 2013 - 5, in 2014 - 16, in 2015 - 11, in 2016 - 22. A total supply of at least 110 units is expected (one of which is already lost).

The machine is needed, and there is a resource for modernization.

Machine needed

Last weekend I was relaxing with my family on a lake near the Nizhny Novgorod Falcon - 5 31 MIGs fly at the same time!

I’ve never seen it before, even during the Soviet era!

So the budget is not only sawed, but something remains on the defense industry!

There is where to modernize and it will show itself, God forbid we see it

The old men will still serve! Our territory is huge and these supersonic people are very necessary for intercepting all sorts of curious people ... It was created for such purposes during the Soviet era, our territory didn’t have enough time to intercept .. I remember when it was launched into the series, so we started to scam Amers on distant borders, suddenly appearing in the tail .. And then silence in the sky!
Well, for the interceptors guys!

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

It was not built for "all curious", although the MiG-31 performs this function perfectly (EMNIP today there is no aircraft that could move away in speed / altitude), but in order to intercept strategic bombers and missile launchers flying to us across the north pole)
And I must say, he copes well with this task.
Another question is that, according to the generally accepted opinion, he is not ice against fighters. But here again the question is, because the first American aircraft destroyed by the Iraqi Air Force in the “Drill in a Glass” (F-18) was shot down by the MiG-25, the forerunner of the MiG-31 ... So I would not risk claiming that it was against the enemy MiG fighters -31 all of myself so useless :)

[_Jack_]

It’s not effective against modern fighters, it has no maneuverability, now it’s a pure interceptor and if you use it for its intended purpose, the machine is really unique

As if yes, but if it is in equal battle. And according to the principle of the 333rd position of the kama-sutra, the "crossbow" (pulled and flew away) can work - that’s how the F-18th was shot down. Those. in a situation where the AWACS detects a target and leads to interception, and the MiG-31 without turning on the radar attacks, everything can very well turn out. MiG-25 demolished the F-18 EMNIP UR short-range, i.e. went unnoticed at a very small distance to the "miracle of hostile technology"

[_Jack_]

unfortunately, in this situation, a huge ESR by modern standards will fail; when irradiated from the front hemisphere, the MiG-31 has an ESR of about 25 sq.m. I see only one option - I caught up and attacked a long-range SD from a long distance, if possible without entering the zone of destruction of missiles of an enemy aircraft and dumped

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

unfortunately, in this situation its huge by modern standards ESR will let you down

The MiG-25 has no less EPR :)))) But enemy planes in their normal state do not include their radars, because there simply does not exist a better way to inform the enemy about themselves.
In general, of course, the MiG-31 is not for gaining air supremacy, but ...

So he was not created for maneuvering combat and the "dog dump" ...
Its pure task is to intercept and destroy, to which it is fully consistent ...

[Mountain shooter]

The fastest (of existing) aircraft in the world. The aviation complex, which is very necessary in our open spaces. Such news is good news.

[Gardamir]

Interestingly, in the Soviet newspapers also wrote about each aircraft, or was this for granted?

[siberalt]

The Soviet newspapers wrote how many factories, factories, power plants were built, about the next reduction in prices for goods and food, about the early fulfillment of production plans.

[Aleksey7777777]

Sincerely, Uncles ... Oh, read now Soviet newspapers ...........

[lukewarm]

Yes, prof. Preobrazhensky had his own vision of owls. newspapers. It was its own, plagued by insults to power (although it did not really touch it). It is amazing that contemporaries of this film simply took and transferred this attitude to their lives (80s). Everyone probably saw himself a kind of ironic professor, but it eva how it happened ....

[Gardamir]

In the Soviet newspapers they wrote

Thank you I wanted to hear this.

Yes, but not the last twenty-five, thirty years, until the collapse! When, having thousands of factories and factories, the vast majority of the population could not buy a washing machine or a sewing machine, a refrigerator, a vacuum cleaner, a carpet, normal shoes and clothes, even books, they were all good. But, to the detriment of its own population, the "leading and directing" sponsored Communist parties and liberation movements around the world, maintained at their expense the Warsaw Pact countries and the CMEA. And our tourists, to eastern Europe, went not so much on an excursion, how many for clothes, shoes, crystal and stainless steel utensils! Or maybe I'm wrong, and after the collapse, the soldiers-internationalists and Chernobyl officials said - "we did not send you there"?

In 2004, when the Federal Law came out, the benefits were severely cut for Chernobyl victims, and many lost such “pleasures” as free medicines, prosthetics, and spa treatment. They left 14 additional days of paid leave and rations - a maximum of 520 rubles per month for health food.

[siberalt]

And why on your profile picture the emblem of the country on which you pour mud? Or is it easier to earn points on the forum?
And the fact that the people had money for cars, washers and irons, but there were not enough goods, was a temporary matter. But in Sochi or Crimea, everyone could go (fly) to their vacation. And the state "grave" with pension contributions did not degrease, and did not say that these funds were erroneously overpaid to the people, as is done now.

Do not generalize, and everything cannot be reduced to "sausage". Everything has pros and cons. As well as the fact that it is necessary to consider such things completely, and not chosen (taking out of context).

Yes, and now in the newspapers do not write more often .... just in Soviet times there was no Internet and so many bloggers (gossips)

[storm]

Based on your data, the troops are armed with 248 MiG-31 units of various modifications.
If modernized at the same pace, then in the near future it will be possible to form 10 MiG-31-BM regiments with a total number of 220 units

[midshipman]

In the 70s, NII-33 was Ch. Constructor and Deputy. head of research institute. Under my leadership, the Radical HVAC equipment was created for this aircraft. On the outer sides of the keels are in the fairings of the headlamps of this equipment. Only this aircraft could determine the mutual coordinates of other MiG-31s ​​that were in flight with it to complete the mission. Then, with 4 planes, it became possible to calmly close the front line of more than 1000 km. This was used by Marshal E.Ya. Savitsky in the 80s, when it was necessary to force the United States to stop flying with US intelligence over Kamchatka. I participated in this operation, then I was already the Head of 6 Gu of the MCI of the USSR. I have the honor.

It is assumed that when the MiG-31 reaches 22 vehicles, they will be allocated to a new two-squadron regiment,

Is the MiG-31 squadron not composed of 12 aircraft, why the regiment will consist of 22 rather than 24 aircraft?

This is another matter, although also relevant, it is said about MIG-31, but this is worth rejoicing - we are becoming stronger. A good interceptor should be an interceptor, not a combine harvester. Sorry layman.

[Music]

In 13m 5 cars were modernized. And when was one lost? If, at 13 m, then, consider 20%. The number of new tanks for the second quarter is 5 vehicles. I wonder what models. Or is it a super secret?

[Atlant-1164]

for me two of the most beautiful devices - Mig-31, Tu-22m3

[aws4]

an interesting thing, all the same, the external perception of the planes ... the other two planes seem to me the most beautiful to me)))) and let's find out somehow what plane is the most beautiful according to the readers .. without jokes it’s just interesting))))

Great news! Fly guys! In Kansk, everything seems to be already BM!

In August 1975, when the MiG-25 P first arrived, they were spotted by the stopwatch in the barracks in Chuguevka after exactly 10 minutes and flew to the airport. and then they got used to it, liked it with its bestial power (not earthly). Then he chased after the SR reconnaissance, ICBM and satellites, and maybe for airplanes today ....

[Rushnairfors]

I am very pleased that Sokolovka will be rebuilt, otherwise the entire IA in Primorye is concentrated at one airfield. Still Galenki with Exaltation podshamanit and revive, and it would have become more fun.

[asiat_61]

supply of at least 110 units (one of which has already been lost) .... Regrettably.

[Alexey-74]

Good news. We won’t let the Tomahawks fly.

The rearmament of the regiment with this equipment has been carried out since December 2015. It has three squadrons. One of them is armed with MiG-31, the other is Su-27SM and Su-30M2, the third is Su-35S and Su-30SM

22 giap does not cease to please with its composition.
TEC, a little, very glad to serve 5 models and modifications of aircraft of two different design bureaus. And the management and headquarters - harness a horse and a trembling doe to one cart... in the sense that the regiment is armed with long-range heavy interceptors "flying S-300", multi-purpose fighters Su-30M2 and SM and super-maneuverable Su-35S, sharpened for aerial combat.
He would still flashlight on the forehead the fourth squadron on the MiG-29 or Su-34 for complete happiness.
