"The main thing, the paintwork was restored": users in Ukraine comment on the repair of the MiG-29 fighter

32

In Ukraine, they reported on the "prompt" repair of the MiG-29 fighter of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (the name of the country's Air Force) damaged in the current year. The repair work was carried out by the team of the Lviv State Aircraft Repair Plant - LGARZ. Which side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are you talking about?

According to the latest information, this is a 9-13 fighter with number 47 "blue", which was damaged during an unsuccessful landing. This incident happened with the MiG-29 in the summer of this year. During an unsuccessful landing, the airframe and some other structural elements were damaged.



As reported at the aforementioned Lviv aircraft repair plant, in the shops "the airframe was repaired and the paintwork was restored."

It is added that the MiG-29, after repair and recovery procedures, conducted several test flights, after which it was sent to its permanent base.

Many Ukrainian users were rather skeptical about the repair of the MiG-29 fighter:

Very quickly: they took it to the plant for two months, and repaired it for several months.

It took six months to align the fuselage. In any car service, they would have done it many times faster.

Most importantly, the paintwork was restored ...

At the same time, LGARZ does not name the total amount that the repair of a combat aircraft damaged during landing cost.

We will remind that earlier in Ukraine there was a statement that the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces should consider the option of acquiring Swedish JAS39 Gripen fighters or American F-16s.

    Apparently, spare parts were waiting ... There, now only on order. We don't have our own.
    The dough was probably not boiled for repairs, "Mom, don't worry" ... wink

        The landing gear, but the traction ... Maybe something else, he smacked on the strip normally.
        In general, 4 months in repair is not so much. I was lucky to be restored at all. I think there was no "cannibalism". laughing

            The paint will glue everything together and ... hide it.

            Although, there is nothing to hide the obvious problems of Ukraine.

            But even so, "pixel camouflage".

        In Ukraine, there are only two colors of paint in abundance ...
        Zhovtiy and blue color - yellow and blue. Other colors only by special order. Yes

      And their purchases "to the district", through "gaskets", from "Russia - the aggressor", this process is not quick and not cheap.

        No, I mean that "9-13" is a designation designation of a modification, a side / tactical number is not.

          Perhaps such a format for presenting information in the article was chosen to facilitate the identification of the board? To account for the number of aircraft of all modifications, the still physically existing MiG-29 of the Ukrainian Air Force ...

    Why restore the paintwork, you take a bucket of paint, a bigger brush and drove it. Banderlog will do, but for a long time, because it dries. wassat

    The main thing is that the editors never give links to the original so that readers do not understand that they are being hinted at. They don't even write from which site they took the comments of "Ukrainian users".

      There is little to see in the pictures, and there are no details in the article. But, it seems, severe damage is not visible. And the struts didn’t have to be broken or gone into the plane. Maybe it just happened. Then the damage to the airframe can be insignificant, and the VyhU can be scanned from the other side.

    It is felt that self-criticism and sense of humor among Ukrainian users have not completely disappeared yet. The rest of the authorities and officials are at the same level, and most importantly
    In Ukraine reported about "prompt" repair
    the rest is of little concern.

    I wonder how it is possible to repair an aircraft without having original spare parts from the manufacturer?))) Even at service stations for "Zhiguli" will not give guarantees for such a repair)))

    Where does it come from? Will they send mattress covers by shuttle? Although, out of 9 units it is quite possible to assemble at least one for the layout - and how much "zero" sandpaper went - half the cost of the repair!

    Undoubtedly, this is the greatest achievement of the Ukrainian independent science and industry! Still, for beauty, whitewash the kolEs of the square summer, with lime. (yak at mom's garden)
    And the pilots should give out a piece of bacon, garlic and a dance of moonshine to the most important pilot.
