Foreign expert: Armenian air forces gained an advantage over Azerbaijani air forces

94

The first Su-30SM combat vehicles arrived from Russia to Armenia on December 27. They were personally met by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan at the Erebuni airfield in the capital and even got into the cockpit of one of the fighters.

He called this purchase the most important acquisition of the year. The first batch of aircraft arriving in Armenia consists of four aircraft. Soon eight more Su-30SMs will arrive. Prior to this, the most modern military air equipment of this Transcaucasian country were Su-27 fighters, purchased in the 2000s.



Well-known in military circles, foreign analyst Babak Tagway in his publication on Twitter claims that this news will not please the Air Force of Azerbaijan. Indeed, now, according to the analyst, the Armenian Air Force has gained an advantage in the airspace of Transcaucasia, an advantage over the Azerbaijani Air Force.

At the moment, Baku has MiG-29 fighters made in the USSR and purchased mostly in Ukraine. Tagway claims that at present Azerbaijan is not able to acquire anything comparable to the Su-30SM in Russia or in the West. On what basis the mentioned blogger-analyst makes such a conclusion is not clear.

Su-30SM is a multi-purpose generation 4+ fighter designed to gain air supremacy.

Recall that Armenia is a member of the Collective Security Treaty Organization.

          Let the Armenians try the Jewish miracle - the air defense missile system - on the "dryers". And the incentive for Azerbaijan is to arm ourselves not with Bandera scrap metal, but with modern weapons. Although on the other hand - Armenia is the size of two palms. "Dryers" will have nowhere even to "cut in" the afterburner - they will fly into a neighboring state.

            The radars and diversity of Azerbaijan’s Air Force-Air Defense allows us to repulse attacks not only from Armenia, but from more serious countries. And the answer will be from two sides, from Nakhchivan (from the west) and from the main territory (from the east). So, these planes are not scared by Azerbaijan , from the word, completely.

              The Saudis thought so too. And you have already underestimated the Armenians once. Live in peace, if our weapons are capable of ensuring parity in the Caucasus, we will assume that the goal is achieved. If Russia was going to give a military advantage to one of the parties, believe me, it would have done it without much difficulty.

                The Saudis, the situation, the construction of air defense, US-dependent techniques, etc., all this is a different song and cannot be compared with the situation in Azerbaijan.
                “And the Armenians in your country have already been underestimated once.” We have a saying that “a dog is strong when the owner is nearby” Azerbaijan did not underestimate the owner, not Armenia. Then Azerbaijan did not know about the wills of Peter the Great.
                "If Russia was going to give a military advantage" The task is to keep the balance, to keep it under control. Breaking the balance, one of the parties will get out of control. So the reason is clear, all the more so, you can earn from the sale, and not let one of the parties go to the other.

                        If you look at the chronology of events, it can be seen in an obvious way that (1988) the Soviet government did not put a finger on its finger in order to pacify the Armenian nationalists who demanded Azerbaijani lands. Although there was an attempt to rectify the situation later, it was too late, especially since Yeltsin came to power and put cross even the late attempt of the Soviets to pacify the nationalists (already armed) Armenians. After, Yeltsin took the side of Armenia, in everything ... although he called for an armistice in plain sight, he achieved a ceasefire in 1994, but with the occupied Azerbaijani lands, the Armenians did not withdraw. of that day, "negotiations", useless, stupid, and everyone understands that this is an imitation, to stretch the time for Armenians, to infinity. Azerbaijan counts days and years, but the figure on the Karabakh issue for Azerbaijanis is not infinite. Karabakh means much more for Azerbaijan, than the earth.

                        "The Soviet government did not put a finger on its finger to pacify the Ukrainian nationalists who demanded Russian lands." When, under the USSR, Ukrainians and Russians fired at each other for Russian land? What am I missing? If you are talking about Bender tires, it was a long time ago, during the Second World War, if I am not mistaken, before 1949.
                        "Do you think that the Soviet government loved the Armenians more than anyone else." More than us, Azerbaijanis, for sure. (For example: Armenia with a population of 3.5 million spent 4-5 billion Soviet rubles a year, gave about 2 billion rubles a year to the central treasury. with a population of 7 million, trail was about 5-5,5 billion rubles, replenished the central treasury of 7-8 billion rubles a year. They lived like parasites and got away with it. This is in the economic sphere, but in other matters too were also spoiled) There have always been preferences in their direction, in our case, it starts from 1813 and 1828, after the Gulustan and Turkmenchay agreements.

Through the efforts of certain of our leaders, such a bias in procurement prices was presented at the time, including to Azerbaijan.

                        But you look from the other side. When the conflict began, the standard of living in Armenia was higher than in Azerbaijan. Of course, due to the union budget and unfair distribution, but that was exactly so.
                        What about now?
                        And now Azerbaijan is an order of magnitude more successful state. And we can say that the state took place precisely.
                        And this despite the defeat in a vile war.
                        You win in peaceful construction, in the economy. Time works for you. Yes
                        And Armenia has since known both the energy blockade and abandonment from former instigators and promised sponsors. It exists only thanks to the support of Russia, the supply of Russian gas, Russian loans and the Russian military base.
                        They failed to build a self-sufficient economy, to reconcile with their neighbors ... they became just marginalized.
                        For the sake of its own security, Russia needs a base in Armenia. After all, Turkey is a member of NATO.
                        But in recent years, relations with Turkey have improved markedly! And if this goes further, then I will not be surprised that Turkey is one of the first to enter the future Eurasian Union.
                        I'm serious .
                        And in Turkey, too, many people think ... including from Erdogan's entourage.
                        Do you understand what I mean?
                        The value of Armenia as an ally of Russia (bad I will tell you an ally) is steadily declining. And the adequacy of their leadership inspires more and more fears.
                        In all respects, Russia and Turkey would be more interesting long-term partners for Russia. And in the context of the creation of the Eurasian Union in the future (most likely in the format of a confederation), Armenia, in order to participate in it and not to be left face to face against Turkey and Azerbaijan, will have to resolve the conflict with Azerbaijan and return the occupied lands.
                        And this question can only be solved in this way.
                        With the complete moral and legal victory of Azerbaijan.
                        After all, the truth is on your side? Yes

                        And it is very good that Azerbaijan refused an alliance with Israel against Iran ... But after all, it almost provided its jump airfield for the bombing of its neighbor ...
                        And now, if the transport corridor is launched from India through Iran, Azerbaijan and Russia to Europe, can relations really get better? Indeed, in Iran, Ayatola is an ethnic Azerbaijani. And indeed, there are three times more Azerbaijanis in Iran than in Azerbaijan itself.
                        Why am I doing this?
                        And the fact that Iran is one of the main trade partners of Armenia.
                        And if relations between Iran and Azerbaijan improve?
                        Do you know what I mean?
                        Forcing non-violently to peace. With refund. Territory.
                        And all this will be possible if your president shows wisdom. And he will become a friend and ally of our president (they already have a good relationship).
                        But Pashinyan will not succeed.
                        Even if he tries to try.
                        But he even "tries" so clumsy and awkward ...

                  To be honest, the initiative for the Karabakh conflict came from Armenia and she began the seizure of territories. Azerbaijan defended itself, and Gorbachev took the side of Armenia. We were all out of luck with the "owner" then. It was this bald rubbish that added fuel to the fire of interethnic conflicts.
                  I served then in Azerbaijan, from 88 to 91, and everything happened before my eyes.
                  By the way, what do you have of air defense left there, from Soviet times? At one time there was a very powerful group.
                  In general, after the delivery of the Su-30 to Armenia, Azerbaijan can, with a clear conscience, apply for the same Su-30s, or even Su-35s. Moreover, your side does not beg for loans, but pays with real money.

                  And what is this "title of Peter the Great"? Only the lazy did not write about this fake - the fake has long been debunked. And I don’t remember anything about Azerbaijan or Armenia.
                  We all lived in the same country, and I did not hear about stepsons in it, everyone was equal, at least in opportunities. And Gorbachev was definitely not the successor of Peter-1. He worked for British intelligence. From a youth. Since his student years recruited.
                  So I wish you in the New Year at least to order (and get approval for the delivery) of your batch of modern aircraft - solely for the sake of parity and balance. But do not fight. And at the same time, at least in the future, to return their seized territories. But in a peaceful way.

Stalin insisted on the restoration of a single state under a new name - the RSFSR, and Lenin insisted on a certain USSR with the right to withdraw from it, which laid mines (including the outline of the borders - then administrative, and later became state ones). The mere appearance of Kazakhstan in 1935 is worth something! A new republic and a new "people" - Kazakhs (Kyrgyz and refugees from East Turkestan) were invented from the Cossack camp ...

                    "And Gorbachev was definitely not a successor to the work of Peter-1" I agree. But he obeyed his Armenian advisers (and Sakharov, the husband of Elena Bonner, who is Gevork Sarkisovich Alikhanyan's daughter), portraying a Westernizer and a minister of new values ​​for the Soviet people. about the Armenian diaspora in the USA and France, he listened to the opinion of pro-Armenian senators. As a result, he screwed up, allowed this conflict. Too late realized that everything leads not only to blood in a local conflict, but to serve as a catalyst for the collapse of the USSR.

                      Gorbachev was not mistaken and did not go about it; he deliberately fomented ethnic conflicts, discredited the army and ruined the state. He was an English spy from his student years and this is a medical fact. His case was conducted by the investigator for particularly important cases of the KGB of the USSR, but Andropov covered him and, with the aim of removing him from the investigation, brought him to the Central Committee and then to the Politburo, after which they ordered the case to be terminated. But there were very serious things hanging on it ...
                      At the rallies in Yerevan, Armenians burned Soviet passports back in the mid-80s, you can recall the explosion of a goose barrow (they used a cast-iron goose barrow as a shell) in the Moscow metro ... Not only the United States and the French diaspora, but also Israel, beat up such demarches caches with Uzi machine guns, explosives, and equipment were found in Karabakh during searches. One can recall the attempt of a terrorist attack on an oil and gas pipeline to Armenia, which was attempted by Armenian saboteurs who landed on the territory of southwestern Azerbaijan on two helicopters ... I myself took part in preventing this atrocity, they literally didn’t have a couple of minutes to complete what they had planned - they were frightened off two of our helicopters (Mi-24) sent to intercept. But they had already tied up pipes with explosives, but did not have time to connect the detonators, they remained there lying in a backpack nearby. And these saboteurs fled from the crime scene to Stepanakert and sat right in the square - into the crowd, fleeing the persecution. And fled. They didn’t manage to bring them down because they had already caught up with the city, although permission was given.
                      So, not only Gorbachev, but also the USA, England and their satellites covered the Armenian terrorists. The Azerbaijani side could not be found in the union leadership. And in the future only the Turks supported you.
                      If Aliyev behaves wisely, then in the medium term everything can be decided without war - they will have to give land. If you try to resolve the matter by military means, put Russia in a difficult position - Armenia is a member of the CSTO and there are bilateral agreements, and only exacerbate your situation. But Aliyev is a wise politician. And he had a good teacher - his father.

Moreover, I want to note that the Saudi air defense system, at least "on paper", looks much more powerful than Azerbaijan - there are even "AWACs".

            They need to put up. And resolve contentious issues,
            Manilovism. This conflict in itself will never resolve. It is possible to make peace there only when one of the parties gives up their dreams: the Armenians will refuse that Karabakh will forever become Armenian, the Azerbaijanis will refuse to regain the occupied territories (including Karabakh).
            And everyone knows that. For me - so it is necessary to turn off the light in the Caucasus and let them calmly fight one on one, well, at least for a month. Then turn on the light and see who won. If nobody again - we return all disputed territories to Persia.
            Otherwise, this sluggish cold war, which annually takes hundreds of lives on both sides, will last forever.
            Let’s better fight well now. And God forbid, they also acquire vigorous weapons. Here the whole region will have a problem.

      "Azerbaijan, if desired, can buy Su35 from us. For cash." Yes, of course, this is why the sale of these planes to Armenians was started. BUT, each business has its own limits, beyond which the rear is not good. I want to say that these techniques, up to a certain point, cannot be abused. Azerbaijan can buy foreign planes, for cash, in return for such gifts to the invaders of the Azerbaijani lands. Then, the Russian Federation will lose money, since it was sold to the Armenians on credit, that is, for free, and it also lost a client with money.

        Jeyhun, you’re contradicting yourself. If the credit was given to the Armenians for the purchase of airplanes, for the sake of being able to sell to Azerbaijan (which he requested), then everything goes exactly to such a decision. Do you really think that we can sell only one side of the conflict? Now is not the time to build a grudge, especially since the solution to your sore topic about the return of the occupied territories is possible only with the help and mediation of Russia.
        After all, was there a proposal to resolve this issue within the framework of the future (possible) Eurasian Union? But if such an agreement were signed, Armenia would have been obliged (!) To return all the occupied territories, except for Nagorno-Karabakh itself, the fate of which would be decided by either a referendum or an exchange. But at the same time, it suits both sides. If Armenia didn’t sign such an agreement, it would remain alone, outside the EAC. And without (!) The support of Russia.
        So I would sign it. And you would regain yours.
        But now all movements along the EAC are frozen. I hope not for long.
        So buy planes, but not for war, but for the sake of safety ... And the prestige of your aircraft. And resolve territorial disputes within the framework of the future EAC. In which Turkey will most likely also be a member. hi

    The Su-30 aircraft is good and in confrontation with the MiG-29, which has not been upgraded since the end of the XNUMXs, it is certainly better, but here are where these planes will be located, at what distance from the borders and whether their places of deployment are in the radius of destruction of Azerbaijan’s fire weapons.

    Until a certain time, the ground-based air defense of Armenia leveled Az-n’s advantage in air assets (due to their limited number and subsonic quality in the form of the SU-25). But since the systems are outdated and missiles are not produced in the Russian Federation for early modifications of even Soviet equipment. Armenia faced the problem of the complete conquest of dominance by Az. Mr.. And given that Az has a radar field that goes beyond its borders, not only the Soviet / Russian technology but also the decimeter Green pin. The Air Force, if properly modified, could receive operational information and plan missions due to changing Armenia was forced to buy modern aircraft, unlike the Az-in, ground-based air defense was not modernized at an accelerated pace. Due to a lack of money, but if Az-an buys the same JF-17s weaker in characteristics than the Su-30SM, it will be able to return advantage. The explanation is simple, the plane never fights with the plane in a duel, various nuances play a huge role. And so in All these comparisons of the characteristics of fighters cause laughter among specialists. In my air defense, in my humble opinion, the amateur will almost always have parity in this theater of operations. And missile weapons do not change the weather, all these bravado about the OTRK and RZSO Iskander, Polonaises, Laura, Smerch, Kasyrga , WM-80, Scud, Tochka-U, etc. is ridiculous, I think there is no need to explain, look at the dependence of these countries on suppliers.

Azerbaijan has a wider choice, they can buy ours, and Chinese, and the French, and mattresses began to sell them weapons indirectly. They chose Sino-Pakistani fighters a long time ago, were waiting for an improved model, once Sarkozy rode to them offering French fighters and air defense systems. But a small and inexpensive Sino-Pakistani fighter with AFAR and new Chinese missiles is optimal for this theater of operations in all respects. Moreover, they have strong anti-aircraft defense and will still strengthen, and do not go to the fortuneteller who the Belarusian BUKs are for, they will go after the Polonaise to the same address.
