Kursk Aviation Regiment ZVO received two Su-30CM fighters

The fighter regiment of the Western Military District, stationed in Kursk, received two newest fighter generation 4 ++ Su-30CM, the district press service reports.

The airplanes made a flight with a range of more than five thousand kilometers from the factory in Irkutsk to a permanent location at the Kursk air base of the Western Military District. According to the rearmament plan, these machines should replace the MiG-29CMT, which are now in service with the regiment.

As previously reported, except for the Su-30SM aviation In the coming days, the Su-35 fighter jets should receive the district’s connection. They will be based in Karelia and now the pilots and technicians of the aviation regiment are at the manufacturing plant in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. There they prepare fighters for a flight of eight thousand kilometers to a permanent base airfield.

As for the 4 ++ Su-30CM generation aircraft, they are one of the most modern and high-tech machines in service with the Russian VKS. They are equipped with thrust vectoring engines, front horizontal tailgate, phased radar antenna array.

The aircraft has super-maneuverability and is able to use modern high-precision air-to-air and air-to-surface weapons. Among the advantages of the Su-30CM - the ability without refueling and overhead tanks to overcome a distance of up to three thousand kilometers, transmits WG-Force

It’s good. It is strange that instead of SMT. It seems not the most old

[Berber]

And the MiGs are pushed "according to Bratsky." Syrians or Serbs. In short friends.

SU-30SM numbers No. 79 and No. 80

[Rushnairfors]

By the way, on the topic of the article, on Saturday they were supposed to drive 35 units through Petruk through us, plus they already have 6, a full squadron already, by the end of the year, it would seem like 6 or 2 more sides, and the next year to finish Petrozavodsk completely. And as for Kursk, I heard that while the regiment will be mixed, both su3 and mig30, the order for su29 for sailors is big and they have trouble with the materiel, from the next year they will be put in the first place, something like that. Of course, everything is at the level of conversation. And the mig30cmt that are in Kursk is really relatively new, they still have enough resources and will be able to serve for a long time, so I wouldn’t give them to any "little brothers" myself!

As many as 2 fighters .... This is some kind of joy ... Such a significant increase, given the size of the country and the geopolitical influence in the world ... Two more targets with EPR about 12, ten times more than even Rafal ...

No need to read the yellow press buddy.

[Pogrom]

Che at 10? Write immediately at 100, you will sound more solid.

[Shadow shooter]

What is the fundamental difference between the 30th and the 35th except that it is double? Why build them together in parallel? Wouldn't it be right to focus only on 35 Drys ???

[Pogrom]

Two pilots give have some advantage in certain situations. For example, in land work, etc. The plane is more versatile, albeit through some deterioration in flight performance. Ideal option, IMHO from 1 to 2 Su-30 in the link from the Su-35.

[Rushnairfors]

By the way, about the Su35: a year and a half ago in Syria the Su30 “shone” - it worked better on the ground than the Su34, which was created as if to replace the su24 and its main task was ground targets. But the 30th turned out to be cooler. So, at the moment, the Su35 has put both Su30cm and Su34 in the belt in questions of delivering high-precision strikes, which makes me very happy. They say a great car, almost the 5th generation.

[Pogrom]

30-deca could not be better than 34 in the work on the ground. She is better than any of our 1 local fighter but does not reach 34.

[Rushnairfors]

Pogrom, I voiced the results of the use of these aircraft in Syria and the feedback of the pilots, including my classmates, all spoke out in favor of the su30cm (and at the moment it is already su35), in general, at the time the Syrian campaign began in 2015. Su34, despite widespread advertising, "worked" worse than su24 with hephaestus, can you remember in March 2016 in the Kremlin the president presented awards for Syria, is there still a colonel who received the Hero of Russia, a test navigator? So, he received it just for the “fine-tuning” of the Su34- of its weapons, since it was very “raw” and some types of WTO (for example, the Kab500) were laid with a deviation greater than the su24 laid ordinary cast iron using hephaestus. Now, of course, the situation has been fixed, the machine is being finalized, but nevertheless, odes are sung to a greater extent su30 / 35.

[Pogrom]

If hephaestus was set to 24M and 34 it was not then yes, no questions. At the moment, ceteris paribus what is in 24 and 30 what is not in 34 for work on the ground?

[Rushnairfors]

I did not study these aircraft and did not operate them, so unfortunately I can not give you an answer. I can only say one thing: I believe people who are military pilots who fly these airplanes and know better than any of us the advantages and disadvantages of a particular machine, wikipedia and articles of military experts who often did not even study at the aviation school much more authoritative than stories of friends. However, I in no way impose my point of view on you, of course I consider the Su34 a more advanced aircraft than the Su24 and if I were lucky enough to fly it and the Su30, I would probably be able to answer your question, and so ..... Perhaps couch experts, rummaging through the Internet with knowledge of business, will tell us what su34 is and what su30 is, make a thousand comparisons, throw a few links where the capabilities of Sukhoi are painted and authoritatively declare that su34 is much cooler than 30k. Will wait. Yours faithfully!

[Pogrom]

I agree, it’s not for us to judge about it. I also draw conclusions from what was written, I did not feel it myself, etc. It is simply interesting how 30-current pilots argue their opinion. 34 just raw, those reasons. aircraft equipment, or others? After all, it was originally imprisoned on the ground. It would be interesting, of course, to listen to the opinions of those who participated in the database on these aircraft.

[Rushnairfors]

Well, in general, if in a nutshell, they say that the Su30 PRNK is more successful, or let's say it turned out to be more developed. Su34 was a little “damp” and now it was brought to mind in the process of the database. How true this is, I can’t say. I accept as a fact. In fairness, I note that when we worked in Syria, it was the su34 who were on the safe side and when we didn’t get there (this happened) they very efficiently cleaned the targets with cast iron. They had no problems with discs, they didn’t use the WTO, but the Su30 only provided cover and escort, apparently they later began to use them at the SC. Su35, too, at first purely like fighters flew there and then apparently decided to test them on the ground and ofigeli themselves, the result of the plague. Now they say the most difficult goals (inconspicuous, small, maneuvering, etc.) are assigned exactly 35m.

[okko077]

30 works like a spark for 35, there is no need for an additional aircraft with such a combination of aircraft, everything is easier from a practical point of view ....

Or relocate to the Asian region or Armenia, Kyrgyzstan. There, too, it is necessary to strengthen the front.

[Rushnairfors]

Perhaps partly thrown there, perhaps part of Astrakhan will give up, there is also smt.
