A video of a Su-30SM and Su-24 refueling over the Crimea appeared on the Web

Crews of Su-30SM multipurpose fighters and Su-24M front-line bombers from the Marine aviation and air defense of the Black Sea fleet As part of the flight tactical exercises, they worked out refueling in the air. The corresponding video appeared on the web.

According to the Information Support Department of the Black Sea Fleet, two Su-30SM fighters and two Su-24 front-line bombers were involved in refueling in the air. Refueling was provided by the crew of the Il-78 refueling aircraft.

Refueling itself was carried out in the sky over the Crimean peninsula, the aircraft alternately approached the refueling aircraft and made refueling, while the distance from the sensor cone to the refueling rod was determined visually. The distance between the aircraft during refueling did not exceed 10-12 meters.

As noted in the press service of the Black Sea Fleet, this element, namely refueling in the air, should be owned by every pilot of the aircraft on which the refueling equipment is installed. Refueling in the air significantly increases flight range, tactical range of action and the ability to perform tasks.

Flyers train - the workflow, as it should be. Well done

[Vestovo]

This is the most difficult element for military pilots .. Well done!

[RoTTor]

Not flyers, but PILOTS

[Prapor-527]

Well, the infantry, with genuine respect and gratitude, calls the pilots flyers ... "Flyers, thank you ..." (c)

Su24 is also with PTB, it’s hard to probably keep an airplane; it’s also able to withstand the speed of the refuel

1. Wing ..on one
2. The container hangs under the right console.
3. "Calls" - radiation reconnaissance station "Efir-1M"

Reconnaiss radiation? - At first I thought that you had a typo in the radar

To conduct r / l reconnaissance on a Su-24MR aircraft, instead of RPO Orion, the M-101 Shtyk radar was installed, which is a unit of side-scan radar reconnaissance equipment with two antennas.
The abolition of the Orion front-view radar made it possible to abandon the large radiolucent fairing of complex shape.
To ensure the operation of radar equipment on the side surfaces of the bow, large rectangular radiotransparent panels are made, the design of which allows for the maintenance of radar units when they are removed.
The rest of the nose fairing is made of aluminum alloys, with the exception of the small part remaining radiolucent, under which is the antenna of the Relief, which is displaced forward of the low-altitude flight.

They called us the left and right plane.

Excerpt from the technical description:

On a Su-24 airplane, the wing consists of a fixed part (center section) with a sweep along the leading edge of 70 ° and a turning part (console) trapezoidal shape in plan with a change in its sweep along the leading edge from 16 to 69 °.

There is still a PTB there ... So, on the other hand, there is one more .... In order to refuel the Su-24M, suspension tanks are also needed .... otherwise it may not reach the tanker ... And now we will evaluate the comic situation. The kerosene fighter takes off from the PTB, practically without a combat load, only in order to safely refuel in the air ... It smacks of a complete window dressing and delusional posing of the question .... With ordinary ammunition, such a circus on the Su-24M does not make sense ... Only with nuclear weapons ....

You have a level of hatred for the Su-24 just rolls over.
If the plane cannot reach the tanker, as you put it, then the navigational service will be to blame, the navigational engineering calculation of the flight will be illiterate, there will be no such people in the future to the plane, they will be sent to the national economy.

[VO3A]

Well, here you didn’t guess ... It could be technical, external, enemy interference and the human factor that you identified ... But it is one of many ... 2 Su-27s fell in the USSR, they were sent to the emergency landing aerodrome, but they didn’t take into account the headwind ... They both fell between the long and short-range drives ... The AN-12 was sent to rescue him ... The engine refused to exclude the turn, they were winged, but not the one ... As a result, he remained on board to work one engine, the plane crashed .. There was also a story with MI-8 in that same bunch that day .. But he sat down on the emergency ... A black day in the history of aviation of the USSR ...

In the USSR, 2 Su-27s fell, they were sent to the alternate landing aerodrome, but did not take into account the headwind ... They both fell between the long and short-range drives.

How, then, can you send an airplane to an alternate aerodrome if it does not reach the runway?
This is possible only with the rude actions of the flight management group and, of the pilot himself. And, as in such cases, they say those who let the pilot fly and checked the readiness of the hydraulic fracturing.

[demo]

Spectacular, however.
It happens at the gas station you drive up, and it became so that the hose is not enough.
And here in the sky both at speed and in turbulence.
Stunned.

[Junior Warrant Officer]

For the sake of curiosity, and after what re-driving, you just bought the right?

[demo]

He started driving at 77.
At gas stations, it happened so, hoses of different lengths.
It is difficult for today's "remakes" to imagine an arrow column, which every other time in portions gives out fuel, then air, but counts as fuel.
So your sarcasm only says that you have not "understood the road" yet.
After overcoming the milestone of 1 million km, I realized that I was tired of cars and roads, and of whose newly-minted drivers were "provided" with rights.
In my youth, there were cases of retake.
But it only said that the requirements were high.
Stay safe.
The road does not forgive either jokes or neglect.

[Junior Warrant Officer]

Your story from the history of the USSR gas station for a moment brought me young, but in any case, I still have an incomprehensible moment - regardless of the length of the hose, what prevents it from stopping clearly with its filling neck directly opposite the dispenser?

[demo]

Buddy If it were not for the presence of supervisors of profanity, then I would explain.
And so it is necessary to explain on the fingers.

[Charik]

with determining the distance you have a problem or a large car?

What's the news? Routine. Develop skills that significantly increase the combat capabilities of vehicles.

To practice skills - it's all the same.

Friends, please teach me how to download (steal) video from this reputable site ?! Beautiful, I want to save it on my phone!

[Max Lebedev]

Is stealing like bad? And you can download this video from another resource, by name.

This is video and so from YouTube.

After the collapse of START 3. Finally, we will see refueling TU 22M3M in the air.

I don’t understand - why should one of the elements of combat training of the videoconferencing be the subject of someone's discussion? In the armies of other states as well?
