In the US, convicted a Russian game developer for purchasing instructions for the F-16




Russian citizen Oleg Tishchenko was sentenced to 12 months today. Tishchenko received a sentence for purchasing the F-16 fighter flight manual: he purchased it on eBay, and used the services of an acquaintance from the aviation forum to get the documents.

According to court documents, Tishchenko was charged with five counts; he partially pleaded guilty to two of them. The verdict states that the defendant had no previous criminal record either in Russia or in the United States.

Tishchenko deported from the US


The Russian developer was sentenced to a shorter term than the one he spent in an American prison - he spent there 12 months and 4 days, and sentenced him to 12 months and one day of imprisonment. Initially, he faced up to 10 years in prison. Also Tishchenko could award a large fine, but in the end he was freed from him. Within days, the Russian is obliged to leave the United States.

Tishchenko acknowledged partial guilt on items that concern “illegal export weapons and ammunition from the United States. "

The case file says that 22 June 2011, Oleg Tishchenko, in the course of communication with the participants of the forum of amateur air combat simulators, asked them to contribute to the delivery of flight instructions for F-16 fighters: he could not get them transfer of papers to foreign buyers.

The Russian created the flight simulator


Tishchenko at that time worked in the company Eagle Dynamics. Documents he needed to create an aircraft simulator.

Having learned about the interest of Russians in the papers, the US Department of Homeland Security opened an investigation. One of the agents pretended to be a member of the forum, who had access to flight instructions. Tishchenko showed interest in 26 vehicle designs, including F-16C, A-10, F-35 and F-22.

The USAB says that Oleg Tishchenko knew that he was committing a criminal offense. The accusation was brought against the Russian citizen in absentia in June 2016 of the year, however, the arrest occurred only about a year ago, as a result of Georgia's satisfaction of the US request for extradition of Tishchenko.

In turn, the Russian authorities believe that the Tishchenko case has all the signs of provocation by the US special services.

          How did this "bode well"? When crossing the border, the Georgian border guards "strongly" advised him not to enter the territory of Georgia. But he moved in .... During the shipment, he was openly told that the story with the sending of drawings "does not look very good" from the point of view of US laws, but he decided to "bypass" and ignored this warning. Considering that for a long time the United States has been "collecting" all unwanted, but simply "interesting" persons from the territories of foreign, but "close" countries to them, the likelihood of the risks of being detained did not even have to be calculated. I am not saying that this is correct, but for me this situation is so predictable that I am surprised at the carelessness of some citizens. It seems not a stupid person, in this situation, he persistently climbed into the mousetrap.

      I don’t know who he is in principle and why a person really bought these instructions, but only one thing is deeply sad: at the moment Russia cannot protect its citizens in the way the Union did. Russians can take anywhere, for any reason and no one is afraid of anything (!). In the best case, deep concern and some kind of useless movements of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
      Believe me - I'm not trying to bawl anyone, but it is. I understand that this is all the consequences of the loss of sovereignty and independence in the 90s.
      It's time to change the situation. Urgently.

        The guy works for the Russian company Eagle Dynamics, which develops the best combat aviation simulators for PC today as part of the open world DCS World, was interested in modern combat aircraft, including Avionics.
        Documentation for avionics is sold online officially in the United States, but without the right to call to some countries. The American, who officially bought the documentation in the USA and sent it to Russia, was not pressured by American justice at all. Such an incident.
        On the risks, today anyone traveling outside of Russia can be tied at the request of the Americans.

          DCS is a cool sim, a friend let me fly on a Boeing ... well, how to "fly": I sat at his mega computer - everything is there - three monitors, throttle control, RUS, pedals ...
          "flew" Moscow-Krasnodar, a real simulator, I heard that there are a couple more, but he says that DCS is the best, well, in Vartander (simulator mode) I myself drove before, until the account was broken a year ago

        In fact, some kind of discrimination is felt - any American, it turns out, could have bought these instructions without any similar consequences, and a citizen of another country - should be punished. Again, the seller is especially guilty in this situation. And about his punishment, even the speech does not go. request For example, we have a seller punished for selling alcohol to minors.

          That is the law. As for example, for non-US citizens it is even forbidden to look into the night vision devices of the 4 generation, like the PVS 18. And they took the seller first, but he made a deal and even his name was removed from the court case.

        Ours do not even want to give simplified Russian citizenship to Russians, there was a scandal in the Duma yesterday: “I leave the hall as a protest, I am disgusted to be with you when you do not vote for the law in favor of the majority of our citizens. Only Russians complain about difficulties in obtaining Russian citizenship. Russians stand in line for passports; they are being bullied since the First World War. Shame on the parliament, which denies the right to become Russian millions of our citizens living abroad. I’m leaving the hall, I’m not on my way with you! ”Said the LDPR leader.

        Already left the Duma rostrum, he added: “Tell your children that you are not Russians sitting here and traitors to the Russian people.” Zhirinovsky reminded that many states of the world distribute their passports to their compatriots abroad without bureaucratic restrictions. “All states give - Germans, Israel, Hungarians, Poles instantly without any restrictions, without exams ...”, the LDPR leader was indignant. And what is interesting is silence on the central channels .. And as for the protection of our citizens, I generally am silent.

        at the moment Russia cannot protect its citizens in the way the Union did

        do not write nonsense. And now, even under the Union, a person who violated the criminal laws of the country of residence was subjected to the court of that country and received a term if the court accepted evidence of his guilt. Do not confuse the provocative affairs of the Americans and a similar precedent. Everything is clear and understandable: violated - suffered a punishment. Or do you think that any citizen of a foreign country can carry technical documentation on weapons like potatoes?

      For information, the Union could not protect its citizens, even under Stalin. All sorts of provocations, for example, with sea vessels, were regular, while the Soviet crew was arrested. There is no reception against scrap. And the Union’s capabilities, although they were an order of magnitude higher, were not unlimited. The case often ended in a complicated combination of specials. services and sharing. At the same time, people were condemned and imprisoned not a single year. In the United States, hands have always been untied due to unlimited possibilities, primarily financial ones, like this hour.

      People themselves climb into a trap, not thinking about the consequences. The Foreign Ministry could help ponder. It would be worth creating a list of countries where there were attempts to abduct Russian citizens and transfer them to a third state (EU countries, Georgia) or murder (Britain). To visit these countries, you will need to pay a large insurance fee (for lawyers, treatment, if necessary). You look, and people think when they hit their pocket.
