48
The crews of Su-34 bombers and MiG-31BM fighters, based on one of the airfields in the Voronezh region, completed tactical flight tasks for refueling aircraft in the air during long-haul flights, reports press office Western District.



Refueling was carried out from the aircraft tanker IL-78 VKS of Russia for 8 hours. Pilots not less than the second training class are involved in the training. Testing the tasks of replenishing fuel reserves in the air significantly expands the range of operational-tactical training in combat aviation and allows you to operate in areas located at a considerable distance from the places of basing,
quoted by the press service of the deputy commander of the air defense division of the military district Colonel Roman Kosteniuk.

Performing in-flight refueling is one of the most difficult stages of flight training.

“At altitudes from 4 to 8 thousands of meters at speeds above 500 km / h, the Su-34 or Mig-31BM pilot should approach the air tanker at a distance of 10-15 meters and with the released rod, contact the tanker cone sensor, then maintain a place in I am building up to the completion of the fuel intake, ”explained in the district.

It is also reported that "to develop flight tactical missions for refueling, over Su-50 bomber pilots and MiG-34BM fighters were involved over 31." For four days, the crews performed over 120 refueling exercises both in the daytime and at night, alone and in pairs.

    The good news is, you just have to train everyone - everyone. This is not correct when senior officers fly to perform ordinary tasks. I understand that these are the consequences of the "collapse", I must hurry ..

            My dear, you read carefully written: it was my opinion, not advice to the Commander, I think he himself knows what he is doing. By and large, I am outraged that such exercises are presented as an event: this should be commonplace.
            By the way, I do not spend all the time on the couch and remember the combat training of a different intensity. Honestly, I did not understand the reason for banter, well, yes ...

                Sorry, but important. I also do not climb with advice, and "half a second" does not climb. And they could: with KBP and not only, are familiar not by hearsay. I repeat: the event should be ordinary, and not presented in the press as "wow." This is a process, and it should be non stop, as it should be non-stop.

                      Then you can not publish any news at all and consider everything as an ordinary routine process.

                And in the FBA too. Their level is now older than KZ and 1st grade, and you say .... We’ll sit on our left cup until they take it into the plan, people will go to the minimum and builds 5-7 years after being assigned to the KK, and the same 95s they only fly for refueling from experienced squads and above, and this is also not one year. There are not enough planes. The little ones have no problems with this from the word at all, and in the same IA (22iap as an example) we’re older than HIGHER !!!!!! are flying.

                  For example, at 23 IAP, junior br, major, KZ, grade 2. 900. The first passed only that year after the sandbox.
                  And in IA, it was very unrealistic to pass on to the first class recently, from the fact that it was necessary to throw a bomb. Now there is enough clearance ... they say ..

                    I completely agree in different ways. someone went right away, someone just accidentally gets everywhere, but someone wants to but in vain they don’t give it. Someone is smeared of everything, considering that he is a detachment, major, pilot of the 2nd class and he does not need anything, but there are 50-year-old fans .... There are favorites, but there is someone who oppresses the truth of the uterus and is not respected by the authorities. Therefore, you are right- to argue is useless!

            You understand what it is not properly. As it was before: captains 'mining horses' DS. And let the youth hollow without a break - they aspired to this and that is right.
            My odnokashniki still fly actively, to us under a fifty dollars: half should nurse grandchildren, the second should be big bumps.
            The valor of the big Commanders is not in the ability to 'sit on the highway', but in the ability to organize the process: so that ordinary pilots sit on the highway and not only.

    The people can also know about how they are trained and what our armed forces are capable of, their taxes.

      I understand your position and it is not without logic.
      Without banter: do you personally know what KBP is? I guess it’s more clear to me when neither types of training, nor quality, nor quantity are put on public display. The average person is more understandable when the clip from the "sandbox" and the bomb car drove the barmalei onto their heads at a time. And how it came to him to know is not necessary. After all, no one disputes that the combat training of many units is never even mentioned out loud.
      Not only the layman follows the news, "partners", God forgive me, why help? The times of openness "turned sideways" to the country, why step on the same rake.
      In conclusion: I do not decide, and I do not even dare to decide for someone - this is my opinion, and you must agree - there is also a place to be
