The Commander of the Ukrainian Air Force may lose his post due to the investigation into the case with the An-26 transport aircraft

31

In Ukraine, the investigation continues in the case of An-26, which fell on September 25 near the city of Chuguev, Kharkiv region.

Recall that then 26 people were killed in the plane crash. There was only one survivor - a cadet of the Kharkov Aviation University of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.



Today it became known that the Ukrainian State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) announced suspicion to the Commander of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Sergey Drozdov in the An-26 case. In addition to the commander, suspicions from the URB were announced to the flight director and commander of the military unit that owned the transport board.

The corresponding notices were sent to these persons in writing.

It is stated that the commander of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (Ukrainian Air Force) "committed negligence in relation to the performance of his official duties." What exactly was the negligence is not reported.

It should be noted that earlier in the Ukrainian media the name of the son of the commander of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine appeared. It was indicated that the An-26 with cadets on board could fall after a request for an emergency landing - due to the fact that he was forbidden to land. The reason was this: they decided to give priority to the board on which Drozdov's son was.

After the situation with the An-26, the President of Ukraine instructed the Deputy Prime Minister of the Government of Ukraine Oleg Urusky to head the commission of inquiry.

If the investigation decides to move forward in terms of accusations against the commander, then in the near future Colonel-General Drozdov, who has been in office since the time of Petro Poroshenko, may lose this post and end up in the dock.

    "Understand" as expected "and punish just anyone." The principle is correct, because the crisis is systemic.

    Someone must answer for the death of 26 people. And if it is confirmed that the commander is at least indirectly to blame for this, then he will certainly be removed. Well, they will put the one who forbade the landing of the emergency plane if this ban was in fact.

      You can immediately shoot for the operation of the aircraft in this condition.

      There was no such ban, this is fake
      Even if there were, it is clear that it was not the commander who gave the command
      The accusation is clearly different

        It is necessary to make room for your close person. And the surname Drozdov does not really fit in anti-Russian Ukraine.

          I don't think it's a problem to dismiss
          We need to look at what the charge is.
          And first you need to know the cause of the accident.

      Is it only about 26 people? This is a single resonant case. As the user wrote above, the crisis is systemic. In Ukraine, wherever you throw it, there is a wedge everywhere.

      With all my disgust for the Kuevsky huntoras, there can be no such thing that the aviators of Ukraine have become so beastly as to prohibit boarding with SOS.

      How can a "scapegoat" answer? At the heart of everything is the "revolution of guiding" and all the "orange revolutions" that are not abused. Here, there are circumstances of force majeure (well, the commander cannot provide his troops with modern technology), but it seems necessary to fly.

      Does the country's air force commander, even one like the 404, decide on the order of landing? Rather, someone decided to suck up the commander's point by doing a favor to his son. Moreover, most likely, not the one who made the decision will be appointed guilty, but the direct executors.

    The Air Force Commander is responsible for his position, and even more so if it was really connected with the "priority of landing." With An-26 understandably understand and will definitely find the extreme. But who will head the commission and investigate the Maidan, Odessa, the murders of journalists ...?

      And here there is only one criminal, the Russian Federation. After all, the plane was designed and built during the times of the USSR, at the same time it underwent all the required repairs and everything that was required. The Russian Federation declared at one time that it is the successor of the USSR, which means even then Russia was planning ... (insert the necessary) ...

    I bet that nothing will happen. The maximum that awaits Colonel-General Drozdov as a punishment, a transfer to another job. For Ilovaisk they only received an award, but here ..........

    Former Minister of Defense of Ukraine Valeriy Geletay bought a small estate in the British Isles for almost $ 36 million. The neo-colonial manor house and adjacent plot of land are located near Immingham, Lincolnshire.

      I suppose I have made a fortune. Here are just rationality showed no more than Ilovaisk. This $ 36M is only the first installment, and then there will be several million dollars in real estate taxes annually, and maintenance costs, about the same order. Or is he going to mow the grass and trim the bushes himself? And this is not to mention the buildings, which must, at least, be heated in the cold season (by the way, too expensive).

    Ukraine is an amazing country:
    There is no Air Force, but the Air Force Commander is.
