Russian Embassy Confirms Delivery of Another MiG-29 Lot to Syria

The Syrian military received a second batch of upgraded MiG-29 fighters. The exact number of aircraft received is not known.

This was announced yesterday by the Embassy of the Russian Federation in Damascus on its Twitter page.

The aircraft were received as part of military-technical cooperation between Russia and the Syrian Arab Republic. The diplomatic mission notes that the Syrian pilots have already begun to master the received equipment:

The Syrians are already starting to carry out missions on these aircraft.

Actually, for them it was not difficult, because by the beginning of the civil war, government troops already had dozens of such military vehicles. They were supplied to the Syrians by the Soviet Union since the mid-80s of the last century.

The supply of Russian fighters to Syria on May 30 was reported by the local news agency SANA. The solemn ceremony of transferring the aircraft to the Syrian pilots took place at the Khmeimim airbase, after which the MiG-29 was transferred to the air forces of the SAR. And already on June 1, local pilots were supposed to begin combat missions in the sky over Syria on new fighters.

To date, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have two military bases in Syria: aviation in Hmeimim and the naval in Tartus.

Recall that earlier in the African military command the United States accused Russia of putting its MiG-29s at the air base in Syria, it “repainted” them and allegedly sent to Al-Dzhufra (Libya).

"Recall that earlier in the African military command, the US accused Russia of putting its MiG-29s at an airbase in Syria," repainted "them and allegedly sent them to Al-Jufra (Libya)."
And Russia cut off the pilots at the same time, so that if they were to disguise themselves, they were to be masked.

Because Russia is already "head over heels" in this mess. Delivery of 5-10 aircraft is a drop in the ocean. After the flight of the strategists, 200-220 thousand $ an hour of flight, the use of the Kh-101 / 3M14 / P-700, the maintenance of the Mediterranean squadron, the Khmeimim base, combat and non-combat losses, and most importantly, 5 years of war, thousands of kilometers from the Motherland ..

[Victor67]

Point by point:
- There is already a southern gas pipeline to Europe (from Russia);
- what the hell is the Navy, how much will it cost for our taxpayers, and why should she counter something ?;
- Why do we need to carry goods to Venezuela and Cuba past Syria, and, in general, why do we need to carry them there (maybe it would be better to take them to Siberia?);
- what the fuck, avik, are you crazy ??? There is no avik, no avik project, no avik planes, no avik planes, no shipyards for the construction of avik, and there is no money for all this;
- Why do we need control of the western border of Iran, have you seen who Iran borders on in the west, are we there?
- Oil and gas in Syria has already been torn apart: we, as usual, get fucked, and the Americans went to the fields, there is a plan how to get them out of there?
- Do you personally care about the Christians in Syria, are you Jesus ???
And most importantly: where is the increase in the welfare of citizens of the Russian Federation, some expenses past their wallets ...

[good]

If there is no Russia, there will be no wealth from the word at all.
Grouping in the Mediterranean is needed stupidly even for the safety of our own shipping and in order to keep in mind that we can bang if anything at the European and Arab bases of NATO in this region or even for whom, if necessary. They go into the Black Sea to constantly bother us, why not bother them on an ongoing basis. Especially with the new Turkish channels, free access to the Black Sea may also open.
Oil and gas in Syria has not disappeared, it is still in its place and it is possible to drive the Americans away from there not so tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. The main thing is to be there at the right time.
The fact that our southern gas pipeline has already been built does not mean that nobody still wants to smuggle their pipes into Europe through Syria.
And Christianity is a big part of our history too.
Respect your story, otherwise you will have to teach someone else, if at all they will let them survive.
We will sit on the priest exactly, there will be no chance of even even somehow responding if necessary.

[Victor67]

That is where you got this desire to be present somewhere all the time, to provide something and to bang on some bases in Europe and among the Arabs ??? Do you understand that with such thoughts they will soon cease even letting us rest across the border to the Arabs? How are you personally not comfortable with the current level of shipping safety?
Oil and gas in Syria have not disappeared, right, but will you personally try to drive the Americans away from there? If you don’t go, explain how to do it. Is someone ready to fight with them east of the river, given that they have a base there and F22 drives F15 and vice versa, and this apart from NATO and Israel with their F35? Do you understand that if Turkey, as a member of NATO, closes the supply routes, then all our fighters from there will be selected by civilian flights through other countries and they will drop everything there? You understand that Khmeimim will not last 10 minutes if he flies from all sides, they simply do not have so many missiles in the notorious S-400 and other complexes.
And it is unfortunate that in the 21st century your brain is overloaded with religion, it attracts you in the Middle Ages, with their excessive spending of taxpayers' money and irrepressible sodomy and pedophilia, which is constantly celebrated by current priests.

Our VKS relied on Sukhoi aircraft. The MiG-29 in combat units is extremely small; basically it is already massively in reserve. Part disposed part sold / distributed to friendly countries. Of course, I would like them to be replaced by the Mig-35. While there is a small order, if it shows itself well and the price is acceptable, I think that a large order will not work. The main thing is not the equipment but the pilots. And they overwhelmingly passed the run-in in Syria.

Forgive me, I disagree ... Our Aerospace Forces use what the UAC gives them, and for a long time there were people from Sukhoi in leading positions ... Now the need to have a light, massive strike aircraft, preferably single-engine, is becoming increasingly evident, but it simply does not exist and there is no proper number of designers who could design it quickly and efficiently, and there is almost no factory where it could be produced ...

And watch less Star TV, in the morning. If you hang everything on the Yak-130 that is in the picture, it will not become a combat aircraft. Find the performance characteristics of the load-carrying capacity, take away the weight of the radar, the slightest reservation, avionics, sighting containers and cry ...

Ancient one, I'm sorry. Sincerely. I didn't want to spit. Wrote it as it is. Yes, there was a program to modernize the Yak-130 into an attack aircraft. Radar, armor, URO, etc., but the price tag climbed out at 25 million green rubles, and the timing ... as usual, so no one seriously considered it. Taking into account the fact that Grach'i came out at 7-8 million apiece, and the Su-39 is two more expensive.
PS: I wanted to say that the plane was unsuccessful. Promoted by force ... Neither M-346, nor Yak nor the tenant in the market. Such glory as the L-39 will not be.

Using it as a stormtrooper is a palliative in the absence of specialized stormtroopers. As an auxiliary plane, except as a taxi plane, it is not possible to use it and then again this is a palliative. Well, it is not possible to use a chemistry teacher as an OM specialist, and a physics teacher as a nuclear physicist, even if they are hung from head to toe with devices. The same is with the Yak-130. This is a training flight, of course you can fly on it, bomb someone and try to engage in battle against enemy aircraft, but all this will end sadly, how many baubles you do not hang on it. And I know this plane quite well, or rather its Israeli version. No one in Israel, in a sober mind and a firm memory, would think of sending him against "underdeveloped" opponents. This is to send the pilot to certain death. Today, the most underdeveloped opponents have MANPADS and other means.

For starters, this modern combat training aircraft. The Yak-130 has the latest complex of flight-navigation, radio communication, information-control and other equipment, including a four-time redundant electrical remote control system with the function of an active flight safety system. It can have both air-to-air missiles and adjustable bombs. The combat load of 3 tons! Means of electronic warfare. Nobody is going to send him to a combat mission without air cover. It may well operate from a height of 4-5 thousand meters. So pzrk him not dangerous. With complete dominance in the air and the absence of a serious enemy air defense, this is a suitable aircraft. Just until his time has come. So do not hang noodles.

The flag is in their hands, of course, but I see that a fighter is shooting a machine gun at a pretty penny at an airplane at a height of at least 1000 m and only Allah can help him get into it. From a plane from the same height they fire at the NURSs and again, only Allah can help them at least not get on their own, I’m silent about any accuracy.

Well, yes, we instantly bought-35 / for the Air Force. Why do we need Mig-29.

We have all the old MiG-29s in reserve for a long time, the most killed are being disassembled, the most serviceable are transferred to the Syrian and Serbian air forces, perhaps something was transferred to the LNA and the Iranian air force. Transmitted, meaning free. And this is the right decision, for we will repair and upgrade them at their expense.
As far as I remember, at the moment in the Russian Air Force there are no old MiG-29s in combat regiments. They remained only in a separate IAE in Eribuni, our group of forces in Armenia.
A certain number of old MiG-29s, mainly UB, and by old I mean aircraft released before 1993, we have remained in training units.

Ask about the new ones?

Those:
- 28 MiG-29SMT and 6 MiG-29UB manufactured in the 2000s, mainly 14 IAPs in Kursk flew them. Then they were put into reserve, and now they seem to be transferring them to 116 pulp and paper plants in Astrakhan. The keyword seems to be.
- 22 MiG-29KR / KUBR issued in 2013-2016, they fly decks 100 KIAP, MA Navy. It was 24, 1 lost, 1 decommissioned.
-16 MiG-29SMT (R), 3 MiG-29UBM released in 2015-2017, it seems, they basically went to the pulp and paper industry, to Astrakhan.

According to this picture, it can be seen that, on March 9, 2016 at the Millerovo airfield there were 20 Su-30SM fighters, three Su-27/30 type aircraft (these are aircraft from the 3rd mixed aviation regiment of the same 1st mixed aviation division from the Krymsk airfield) and 34 MiG-29 fighters, the latter continued to be operated.
Almost the same composition of the aviation group in Millerovo was also observed there on a satellite image taken on April 5, 2016. , only the number of MiG-29 was reduced to 32 - and the MiG-29 fighters also continued to fly (in the picture dated October 17, 2015 the number of MiG-29 in Millerovo was 36).

[Cyril G ...]

In the photo of April 19, 16 Su-30SM and 25 MiG-29 are visible, judging by the fact that the MiGs are driven into one place and they are not in the fuel and energy sector, it is unlikely that they are flying, most likely a reserve.
Although everything is possible.

It would be nice, but if you do not shoot down planes that attack the ATS from outside Syria (for example, from Lebanon), these AWACS aircraft can be lost in 1-2 days.

Had a lot of these 40HE6 and a hedgehog with them? Do not share the list? Maybe there is a positive combat experience?

You see, not only everything depends on 40HE6 here.
We also need people willing to be included in your "list".
And strangely enough, they are not.

[mvg]

And strangely enough, they are not.

Can you tell me what the two S-300PMU2 divisions are doing in Syria? At the same time, this is an uncut version. Probably they are watching Israel peacefully bombing an international airport, the capital of Syria, an air base .. In the sense of "out of business", they were just bought to scare away enemies with their very appearance. In the former Soviet Union, you can easily find specialists for denyuzhku. I even know a couple of

Not many, but how many needed to be shot down, so many S-400s were shot down. And you asked about the American Patriot in Saudi Arabia and Iraq.
There is positive experience. We’ll share the list. Or do you think there is a demand for the S-400?

In December, the People’s Liberation Army of China conducted the first successful test firing of the Russian S-400 air defense system, hitting a ballistic target at a distance of about 250 km.
“Test firing took place in the first decade of December at a Chinese training ground with one of the two S-400 divisions acquired from Russia. The 48N6E missile launched by the system’s firing system hit a ballistic target flying at a speed of 3 km / s, ”a military diplomatic source said then.

“The second test shooting of the S-400 took place in December last year at a Chinese training ground. One 48N6E missile fired by the system’s fire set hit an aerodynamic target (simulating an aircraft) flying at a speed of more than 600 m / s, ”the source noted, adding that the target was hit at a maximum range of almost 250 km.

Sorry, I may not know what. But instead of drawing you will not be difficult to demonstrate SPU drill missiles with missiles 9M96 / 9M96E2 and 40N6E? And also please specify the firing range of SAM 40N6E?

[kit88]

Sergey, a beautiful drawing was chosen on purpose in response to a beautiful drawing of a Turkish pilot.
If you are interested in real information on the S-400, then I’ll say right away - the question is not at the address. I have a different VUS. And I think it makes no sense to quote you a wiki.
Refer to specialists on ground defense.

My husband did not just ask you a question, there is frankly false information in your pictures.
As for the S-400, Seryozha recently had an article on this topic.

[kit88]

Olga, I understand your indignation.
But you somehow separate truly “scientific” posts from caricatures.
I think it would never occur to any scientist to make corrections to pictures and feuilleton in Crocodile magazine.
There was specifically a response to the provocative post of Comrade 013Azer (Azer), an answer in the style of a propaganda poster. Here, not only inaccuracies are permissible, but also outright propaganda disinformation. For example, you could draw this:

This is not a reason to conduct a scientific debate, it is a reason to smile.

The Turkish Air Force is not armed with the AIM-120D. There is only the AIM-120C-7 with a range of up to 120 km, just like the R-77-1, which is in the arsenal of the Russian Air Force, so there is no need to fantasize.

But without pilots and technicians.

[Nastia makarova]

like the Syrians had pilots trained on these aircraft

[iouris]

I'm talking about the same (if you do not understand).
By the way, once in a while Israel destroyed the old MiG-29s (it's on TV).

destroyed? or sold?

Quote: Cyril G ...

Interestingly, where did you see the AiM-120D at a price of 340 thousand bucks?
Last year, they were bought by the Air Force and the US Navy at a price of 1 million 100 thousand bucks - 1 million 250 thousand bucks. AiM-9 Sidewiner was purchased at a price of about at least 490 thousand bucks.
- And by the fall of last year, the Turkish Air Force F-16s were provided with pilots by 30-40 percent. The cleansing however.

They are quite supplied to Turkey not just at such low prices, sometimes they are presented in batches to Turkey, under the NATO support program for the main ally in the region, because it is they who, by their power, the Air Force, can stop the aggression of vandals, in which case. This is very good, dear SAM. In fact, one of the components of NATO air defense on the border with potential enemies.
And so, I'm sorry if the pictures offended you, dear Syrian ..

[Cyril G ...]

AiM-120D will not be delivered to Turkey at such prices. How will they be delivered at such prices if the US Air Force buys them at a price that is 4 times more expensive? Do not explain by the hour? They can give. missiles of models A and B, or C of the first series with an exhausted flight resource and an ending service life.
And the price was 340 thousand bucks, only 23 years ago, now it costs several times higher.
And please do not tell the people about the vandals and NATO’s main ally. And I'm not a Syrian at all.

So is it the Syrian Mig-29s that have undergone modernization in Russia and returned back or from Russian stocks?

Soon there was also their second carrier (from day to day ..)

Still in secret, they have some surprises of Israeli production, for "jamming" the air defense systems, which have hardly ever shone anywhere .. at the right moment there will be a surprise from the sky.

[Cyril G ...]

A conventional tactical aircraft will never be able to "muffle" the air defense system radar. The capacities are not comparable.

That's right, we sell Syria, and Syria can sell these planes to anyone they want. The state of Syria is independent and itself disposes of its equipment and weapons. Once again we showed the world that we are not interfering in the internal affairs of this country ...

There is no certainty that Syria has money, and weapons are not exactly what can be sold further.

[Cyril G ...]

Transferring a MiG-29 batch at a nominal price of 1 ruble per squadron is the right decision. They are put in reserve with us, but after repair they will be able to fly, and then they will restore technical readiness with us for money. Profit And even the cutting and maintenance in the reserve of money is worth it.
