Ukrainian Su-27 shot down a road sign

Frame - Ministry of Defense of Ukraine

A video of the Ukrainian Air Force exercises in the Rivne region, where the pilots of Su-27 fighters practiced landing on the Kiev-Chop route, appeared on the Web. The corresponding video on YouTube was published by the Ukrainian TV channel 2 + 2.

As follows from the video, one of the Su-27 fighters, when practicing takeoff and landing on a highway, demolished a road sign when descending. The description for the video says that the fighter touched a road sign that informed about the recommended speed of 90 km / h, after which, together with its debris in the air intake, it rose into the sky. As follows from the video, the fighter was not damaged and was able to continue its flight. The road service of the Rivne region explained that the knocked down sign is not something new, several of them are demolished every year, but usually cars are engaged in this. They also promised to install a new sign soon.

The press service of the Center air command did not comment on this incident in any way, stating that the exercises on take-off and landing on the highway are an element of preparing and practicing tasks "in order to protect the sovereignty and integrity of Ukraine and its citizens."

As previously reported, the Ukrainian Air Force conducted exercises on the Kiev-Chop highway section between the villages of Krupets and Mikhailovka, Radivilovsky district, Rivne region. Su-27 fighters from the Center air command of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces took part in them.

Propaganda, u these, some kind of clumsy.
To practice landing on the highway in order to protect the integrity of their territories, as the local agitprop said, is a strong saying.

[siberalt]

A road sign is a grain spot for any traffic cop. Air Force Square left someone without a job. Sadness, however.

Sign, by the way, limitation

I’ll have fun. This is the "recommended speed" mark. Informational. There is no penalty for exceeding. Unless, of course, you do not exceed the general speed limits on highways and settlements.

[Dimy4]

To practice landing on the highway, in order to protect the integrity of their territories, as the local agitprop said - it is strongly said

But imagine what kind of savings it is, there is no need to build airfields. There is some kind of road - here's your takeoff. Just remove the traffic cops first.

[oldzek]

you try to take them away, they now rise to the sky.

[zadorin1974]

Cinema and the Germans Well, they can't think of anything on their own, and besides, it's impossible to repeat it normally))))) But letak, no, didn't suffer)))))

Pilots speeding penalties

[Victor_B]

The sign, by the way, is a speed limit of 90 km / h ...
The traffic cops are crying!

On the local MOV they have not a traffic police, but a DAI. This more accurately reflects the essence of this organization.

It's amazing that only one ...

[svp67]

And how was this section of the road prepared that the sign was not removed?

[carstorm 11]

but they just didn't cook it)

[The leader of the Redskins]

They took it off the tongue! I just read the title and immediately thought - how could one prepare so that the dimensions would not be taken into account? !!!

I was very lucky that I didn't get into the turbine

He was lucky that he did not continue the landing. Otherwise, I would sit just on the dividing bar:

The left landing gear was already below the bar.

Apparently, two of them first imitated landing and did not notice the same sign ...
First, one plane conducted additional reconnaissance of weather conditions. Behind him, two planes simply flew over the track, and only one decided to land and take off.

It's good that no one crossed the road. There is no horn on the plane

Mavrikiy, are you talking about a tank or what? So there is no horn there either ... In general, it would be interesting to see the face of an inspector DAI in an accident of a tank and a fighter.

What about the news about the tank? ... I didn't finish reading it and didn't watch it ... Sorry.

[sabakina]

No, news about the SU-27. But you mentioned the second person, so I thought about the tank.

[beeper]

Somehow completely "sticky", like a sheet of wet paper, a knocked down road sign on the air intake lay down - this is how immediately the plastic of the sign melted (somehow I did not think at all before , that the air intake is also heated by a high-speed air flow from the engine) ??!

[viktorR]

No, the sign is metal, just the landing speed is about 200 km / h, so it "stuck around" the air intake.

Well, I don’t know, along our Ukrainian roads I came across both plastic and tin.
Although, again, the plastic would have scattered from the impact to pieces ?!
So, maybe there was a tin sign (but the throat of the air intake turned out to be strong enough - nothing flew off when it hit the sign post, how did it lick it off with my tongue ?!) -200 km / h on landing and higher - on takeoff - this is not a joke!

[Jack O'Neill]

Didn't notice the sign, it happens.
Well, the fact that they are practicing landing outside the airfield is great, of course. The pilot is handsome.

[kit88]

Pretty boy?
Judging by the video, the pilot missed a hundred or two meters. He sat down on the separating bumper, simultaneously winding the sign on the air intake.
It was very fortunate that, firstly, the bump stop did not snag the stands, and secondly, the sign did not fly into the fence. Now this pilot should go to the church to light a candle, because there was a high probability that today other people would light a candle for his "bright image".

[kit88]

PS. There, for sure, now there is a big investigation on the topic of where the Flight Management was, seeing that the board goes clearly below the glide path, and why was not (or was it?) Given a go-around command.
By the way, there is no voice "black box" on the combat Su-27.

[Jack O'Neill]

I have no doubt you could do better.

[Ferdinant]

In the Rivne region, the roads are in such a state that it is possible to move on / over them at a speed of 90 km / h only because the sign on the fighter was clearly superfluous.

[The leader of the Redskins]

There, by the way, the roads are good. New. I drove through at the beginning of the year, many turns, multi-level interchanges. They were preparing for 2012.
Earlier, it seems, they sat on the Odessa highway.

[Quadro]

Banderje in the west are doing normal. But to the east, a complete ass.

[Wedmak]

The fighter was descending leaving a metal beam separator between the main landing gear ??? Therefore, he demolished the sign (and could have demolished the air intake along with the engine), because should have descended further. If he got into the air intake, he would have to crash sit down. Could the pilot be able to do this in such conditions, another question. It's a miracle that everything worked out.

[Prisoner]

Shot down ?! Well, now that's it. A trident on the fuselage, a medal on the chest.

[Yurahip]

Barbell!!!?

[Senka naughty]

Lucky fools .. Had he got into the air intake, this tin could rupture the engine, and he would have "sat" on the left side of the road.

[Alt 22]

it is better not to let it into the sky.

[And why do you need]

It means that good roads still exist in the world, but apparently not in our country

[iouris]

Huh! This is an advertisement of sovereignty and advanced Ukrainian aviation technology.

[Coconut]

Instead of a sign, there would be a tree ... it would be interesting ..

[Chever]

AND...? So what ...?

[Senka naughty]

and the fact that this is not even an incident or an accident is sheer stupidity. and not the pilot, but the grief of the organizers of this "exercise".

Well, Duc failing during exercises is a common thing. Why focus on someone?

[Simon]

As follows from the video, one of the Su-27 fighters, when practicing takeoff and landing on a highway, demolished a road sign when descending.

Interestingly, the traffic cops did not impose a fine on the flyer ?!

[RealPilot]

The most interesting thing in this news is the headline

My brain on the "Ukrainian Su-27 shot down ..." began to instinctively think that another Boeing or something else ... And then I saw the light!

[NF68]

Significant event. It was simply impossible not to write about it.

[makasan34]

DAI Square asks eyewitnesses of this accident to say reg. (side) aircraft number for issuing a fine, the pilot was put on the wanted list
