More than forty MiG-31BM took part in a teaching on the Subpolar Urals

MiG-31BM interceptor fighters covered missile-prone areas at the exercise in the sky of the Subpolar Urals, reports Interfax-AVN message of the press service of the Central District.

The air maneuvers were attended by the crews of the two air regiments of the Central Military District, stationed in the Perm and Krasnoyarsk Territories - only about 250 people of flight and technical personnel, as well as more 40 aircraft,

says release.

The airspace patrol area was expanded thanks to the Il-78 tanker aircraft.

“Refueling was carried out singly and in pairs, while the tankers kept speeds close to the maximum, and the crews of the MiGs - to the minimum. Pilots at altitudes from four to eight thousand meters approached the tanker at a distance of 10-15 meters, contacted the cone sensor, and then maintained a predetermined distance until the fuel was fully pumped, ”the press service said.

aviation fighter units of the Central Military District are on alert for air defense of administrative, industrial and military installations of the Volga, Urals and Western Siberia.

The supersonic MiG-31 is designed to intercept and destroy targets, including cruise and ballistic missiles, at extremely small, medium and high altitudes, in simple and complex meteorological conditions.

Forty of these aircraft can cover almost four thousand kilometers along the front. Of course, if not a massive raid.

[cniza]

Now a howl will rise that again Russia has not warned and continues to threaten.

[novel66]

and rightly so - with refuellers, they could very well have raided America through the North Pole. aggression in kind!

heh ... on the MiG-31 there is no strike weapon from the word "generally"

Are you talking about?
"An important part of the armament is the Zaslon-M radar. The 4th generation fighter is detected at a distance of 320 km, you can track this target at an affected distance of 280 km with missiles with an inertial guidance system K-37M (Russian version of the R-37M at exhibitions this is RVV-BD, manufactured since 2014 for the MiG-31BM), it is armed with the R-33S, R-77, which reaches the enemy 120 km. Tests have been conducted that confirm these characteristics that are superior to analogues of foreign countries. the best US interceptor, the F-14D Tomcat, is capable of detecting and hitting an enemy fighter with an EPR of 3 m2 at a distance of up to 160 km (in 2006 it was replaced by the still unfinished F / A-18E / F Super Hornet, inferior to its predecessor).

At one of the shows in Zhukovsky, the MiG-31BM demonstrated its armament, 4 long-range R-33C missiles with radar guidance were visible, mounted under the fuselage at the conformal nodes, on the left console there was one UR X-31P anti-radar missile. The armament included 4 medium-range missiles RVV-AE, attached to the underwing nodes. The obsolete R-40 TD missiles are also used, made for the predecessor MiG-25 P. Of the two hundred 31 armed MiGs in service, about 60 will undergo modernization to the level of the MiG-31BM by 2020. Such aircraft will be able to arm themselves with 6 Kh-25MP, Kh-25MPU, Kh-31P (anti-radar) missiles, 3 self-guided X-59 and X-29 missiles (for hitting moving ground targets). For the bombardment of fortified stationary objects (including mines with enemy ballistic missiles, headquarters), 6 KAB-1500 or 8 KAB-500 correctable bombs can be used.

Spell ..... the following and try to remember.

The supersonic MiG-31 is designed to intercept ....cruise and ballistic missiles, at extremely small, medium and high altitudes, in simple and complex weather conditions.

MiG-31 has ceiling 37 kilometers, and this is the stratosphere, in NATO there is not one serial aircraft with a similar ceiling, I emphasize the serial, from which it was supposed in the late 80s to launch missiles shooting down orbiting satellites USA.
MiG-31 is not a plane but a whole complex with a high set of capabilities,
it's not Su-57 they have different tasks at all.

Seriously?

The MiG-31BM airborne radar system is capable of simultaneously detecting up to twenty-four air targets, eight of which can be simultaneously fired by R-33C missiles. Improved other features of the complex.

Upgraded versions of the aircraft can be equipped with X-31P, X-25MP or X-25MPU anti-radar missiles (up to six units), X-31A anti-ship missiles (up to six), X-29T and X-59 air-to-surface missiles (up to three) or X-59M (up to two units), up to six adjustable air bombs KAB-1500 or up to eight KAB-500 with television or laser guidance. The maximum mass of the combat load is 9000 kg.

Well, in general there is nothing shock.

AIR RAID
bombing, bombing missiles and air strikes at enemy targets. It is produced by single planes, a group of planes, several groups (parts, formations) of one or various types of aviation.

[Rushnairfors]

Men specifically for Internet connoisseurs and couch experts I want to declare: MIG31 IS A PURE INTERCEPTOR IN ANYONE !!! ABSOLUTELY ANY MODIFICATIONS !!! And you can write whatever you want — I didn’t need to be unfounded, I talked with friends for confidence, one from Yelizovo, the other from Kansk, of course both with 31x — they authoritatively declared - Mig31 and strike weapons IT IS INCOMPATIBLE !!

To whom ??! Above the Polar Urals! Bears to the north?

Therefore, there they conduct teachings. So that partners of mlyn do not choke on diarrhea

[cniza]

Do you think they know geography? , now they’ll be told that this is on the border of NATO’s interests and that’s it ...

In fact, the scope is impressive! +++++

How old is these aircraft already?

The newest 1992 year ....

How many years is there no competition for them?

How many years is there no competition for them?

Conceptually, there can be no competition, with the exception of autonomous searches in patrol areas, but this is an extreme case. With the main version of guidance from the ground or the A-50, none of the targets simply have a chance. There are no analogues in speed and range of interception.

[44Serega44]

Here I am talking about this, which means it’s not yet to appear, even if it’s an analogue, it doesn’t matter how old they are, since they are one of a kind.

[Lopatov]

Quote: 44Serge44

which means until it appears, at least an analog

There will be no analogues.
If you are going to attack solely first, interceptor aircraft with a long-range missile type F-14 are simply not needed.

[win]

I looked once in YouTube about the creation of another handsome man - Mig-25
A commission arrived at the head of the most authoritative Tupolev.
At first glance, he said: "What kind of cuttlefish?" and "Will not fly."


Mig-31

And they are already preparing a shift Mig-41

[Vita vko]

Quote: Siegen

are preparing a shift Mig-41

Unfortunately, it takes a long time to cook. Hypersonic weapons and combat control systems on low-orbit spacecraft are already an obvious reality. And the territory of Russia is such that it is impossible to deliver air defense systems even around the perimeter, too expensive. Entire regions remain open.

[Rushnairfors]

I'm sorry, but where is he - this Mig41? Where is PAK YES?

[Lopatov]

From the time the Americans wrote off the F-14

[Lopatov]

MiG-31BM first presented to the public on January 12, 1999

[Berber]

Fighting "old men". Unique in tactics of application. I wonder if they can be percussion?

[ruff]

I think sho is unlikely ... If the fabs are probably cast iron ....

[Redfox3k]

What for? Given the presence of "stealth" cruise missiles, the need for a strike version disappears, especially since the EPR area Mig-31 is like a Christmas tree in the night.

[Berber]

Fantasy broke out. Introduced a shock fist of 40 aircraft.

[Redfox3k]

Although like EW aircraft and jamming, yes, they would be unique.

[Rushnairfors]

Guys mig31bm is an interceptor, it didn’t work on the ground, it doesn’t work and will not work

[NN52]

Rushnairfors

Why on earth? Maybe a little higher above the ground?
I wrote a little today today today about 33 with a certain part ///
On B the system was REMOVED AND CONTROLLED ,,, but it is possible to return back ,,,
So you're wrong about the land slightly ///

[Rushnairfors]

Maybe, but the comrades say unequivocally only "air-to-air." I didn’t serve on Mig31, so to speak, I didn’t touch the iron, but in any case, I trust people who use these planes without reservation

[midshipman]

These are almost two regiments. Good news. I remember only 4 MiG-31Ps forbidden to fly US intelligence over Kamchatka. There were good times. We were one. I have the honor.

[Megamarcel]

Everything has its limit. Even the life of the Soviet legacy. Whatever margin of safety was originally laid in the design, but everything comes to an end. Yesterday it was necessary to start replacing, but now it’s too late.

Something like this is planned. I hope to live up to this point

[Corsair0304]

Needless to say, the news is one of the most pleasant. This is to the howl that we have almost no heavy interceptors left, and even those breathe in the air. The number of fighters is also interesting and noteworthy (40), somehow I don’t believe in random round numbers))) It is a pity that they did not specify how many tankers took part - this is also a very important factor.
Well done flyers, a good car.

Powerful MIG-31BM machine. One kind inspires respect. And more than 40 pieces participated in the exercises, cool of course.
