    Well, so what? Intelligence has always been and is being conducted, but in neutral waters and airspace.

        The main thing is that “paper airplanes” would not fly from Banderostan ..

        Incidentally, at one time, an automatic take-off system was developed for the Tu-16, which we have three times more to conserve than the V-52’s amers, and the personnel of pilots and reserve mechanics are quite capable of transmitting their reconnaissance flight crew in a couple of months experience for young Air Force officers. And airfields with a 2500 m runway are available at mothballed air bases in the Tver region, for example. Enough for deploying a Separate Intelligence Air Division of the Russian Air Force.

        We fly then, but they raise a hi about our flights. Russia is losing the information component. Bourgeois do not know that they are flying, but a day later they hear how Russian planes fly

      The thing is that, compared with 2013, the intensity of such flights increased from 258 sorties to 480! And this cannot but alarm ... what lies behind this? I recall involuntarily the elite unit created by Rovel - the reconnaissance air group under the commander-in-chief of the Luftwaffe on the eve of the war ...

        Behind this lies the increased power of our aircraft .. That's interesting, but how many similar flights were, let’s say, in 1982?

          No! Then, in general, everything was serious - “During 1982-83, reconnaissance and combat aircraft of US carrier formations repeatedly approached the Soviet border in deployed combat formations typical of military operations. If in 1982 they violated the border 5 times. Then in 1983 (to the beginning September) - already 10. " ("The Hot Sky of the Cold War") All these provocations ended, if you remember, brought down by the South Korean Boeing, and this was a pretty sub-action of the USA ...

    Let yourself fly. Our pilots and air defense also need to train on someone.

    A symmetrical answer is simply obvious - especially since the direction of the enemy’s main reconnaissance attention indicates the frequency of flights. It’s time for us to reopen the North-West network of military airfields for the deployment of a Separate Intelligence Division (or army?) Of the Russian Air Force. Remove from conservation all airborne reconnaissance and target designation systems mothballed since the late USSR - such as the Tu-16R, for example. It is still a good aircraft, very good. massive at the time, the cadre of pilots and mechanics are still quite fit and able to quickly transfer experience to young officers. For EuroTVD option +!

    push to fly, training will not hurt our air defense and VKS with real objects, but they will turn up in the distance
