Kazakhstan Air Force received a batch of L-39 combat training aircraft

The Air Force of Kazakhstan received a batch of modernized combat training aircraft L-39. According to the press service of the Kazakh Ministry of Defense, the aircraft returned to the train after a major overhaul.

L-39 entered the trainingaviation center of the Air Defense Forces of Kazakhstan in the city of Balkhash. The exact number of aircraft in the batch is not reported. The aircraft were sent to the manufacturer last year for overhaul and modernization. At the same time, it is not specified where exactly the repairs were made.



The military department explained that in the course of the work carried out, new digital avionics, ejection systems, communications and objective control were installed on the aircraft. The aircraft will be used to train cadets during the initial training phase.

The Aero L-39 Albatros is a jet combat training aircraft developed in the 1960s in Czechoslovakia at the aircraft manufacturer Aero Vodochody. The aircraft is intended for training flight personnel, some modifications can be used as light attack aircraft and fighters. Note that the L-39, nicknamed the "flying desk", was traditionally used to train pilots in the USSR Air Force, after which they smoothly switched to the aviation of the former Soviet republics, not only as training aircraft, but also as combat aircraft.

Flight technical characteristics of the L-39: aircraft length - 12,13 m; height - 4,77 m; wingspan - 9,46 m; empty weight - 3 thousand 580 kg, maximum take-off - 5 thousand 670 kg; cruising speed - 750 km / h; practical range - 1 thousand 750 km; crew - 1 or 2 people.

    The airplane is certainly well-deserved, but are there no other desks?

      And why others, if this one already exists?
      Moreover, the manufacturer offers modernization to the modern level.

        And why others, if this one already exists?

        The fact that others are better.

        The combat load is 10 times higher, so they bought not only to study, but also to drive barmaley. The cost of flying time is ridiculous.

          The combat load is so much higher - but its value is small. For that with the ELK, that with the Anchor, you need to look for the target with your eyes, as on the IL-2. There is no optical sighting system. Especially for Kazakhstan, this item is the last in line.

          The MFI can be inserted into the cockpit and into the eLC, which we did.
          All services, the regulations have already been established.
          The flight hour for an eLka is cheaper than an anchor, even with a head-on comparison. And, if we compare the repair and the resource, then the Anchor will look absolutely sour there because of the two engines and a more complex control system. That is, more operations are needed, the resource is knocked out at once like on 2 eLks, and there are no special buns for Kazakhstan again.

          And finally, Kazakhstan is successfully maneuvering between China - purchasing weapons from it, Turkey, NATO and Russia. Therefore, contracts for new training aircraft may well surprise if there are any.

            And nothing that elki
            Years of production 1970 — 1999
            What resource is there? And nothing that you just don't need to drive the barmaleev with a fancy sighting system? That's why Algeria bought it - and I'm glad.
            Well, plus, as far as I remember, the Yak can be adjusted so that it can be used to master piloting anything, from the F-16 to the Su-57.

              1) There is a normal resource. It's a flying desk, not a 2M + fighter.
              2) Just in order to drive the barmaley, you need a multi-mode optical station. Otherwise, it is the disposal of ammunition. Try with your eyes to determine where Toyota is standing with a farm under ZUshka, where is the ara-babakh-tuning garage, where the infantry of babakhs are clustered in the garden before raiding the village. Where rocket farms are mounted under the trees, and where people are simply harvesting crops.
              3) eLku can also be configured for emulation, especially after a full upgrade. Yes, worse, but you can. As well as any other TCB - T / FA-50, M346, American, Anchor, L-15. However, the Yak-130 will also not be able to perform as the Su-30SM with UVT, for example, how not to configure it. Anyway, now the main package of basic development of a combat vehicle is on simulators, and then on a real plane. It's easier for Kazakhs, they have Su-30SM.

                Wonderful there, I would say a resource! Considering that they were no longer produced 22 years ago, a wheelbarrow of such years is already called - a bucket of nuts

                  Well, the Su-27 - 25 year olds fly quite well. And don't fall apart. And Assad has 40+ year old planes going into battle.



                  Well, in Russia there are still plenty of L-39s, if that.

                  And they even try to modernize.
                  4 June 2020 year PJSC "United Aircraft Corporation" (PJSC "UAC") in JSC "EMZ im. V. M. Myasishchev "(part of the Transport Aviation Division of PJSC" UAC "as part of the State Corporation Rostec) work on the modernization of the main training aircraft L-39 is nearing completion, which is in service with the Russian Aerospace Forces.

                  As part of work on the replacement of non-repairable and obsolete components, the aircraft received new avionics entirely of Russian production... Also finished painting machines with domestic enamels with high weather resistance, strength and elasticity. After the modernization, the L-39 will be transferred to the customer for control flight tests.

                  The aircraft is a modernized version of the well-proven trainer L-39. EMZ them. V.M. Myasishcheva has been engaged in design support for the operation and repair of these aircraft since 1997. As part of the maintenance tasks, work is being carried out to increase the resources and service life of aircraft and their components, replace components with Russian-made analogs, repair and purchase them, and make improvements according to bulletins.

                    The conversation was - why new? I replied. Note that the Su-27 is not being bought either. Why? Maybe because of the same?

        So let them modernize their houses and fly. And we have something for the cadets to fly.
        The Chekhovs have already been given a vaccine ride, so they need to shove their Russophobia into one place to idiots. They forgot the scum, how Russian men died for them.

          And the Czechs, before the surrender of Germany, regularly supplied ammunition and weapons to the Nazis.

      The L-39 is an ideal aircraft for the initial training of pilots (simple jet and inexpensive), the Yak-130 is a more advanced "flying desk" and more expensive, respectively, which teaches you not just to fly, but to fly simulating a specific type of aircraft.

      Russia would have liked its analogue L-39.

    I saw the aerobatics of the private aerobatic team Baltic bees, the men themselves keep L 39. They flew to the Formula 1 stage, drew a beautiful Russian flag in the sky, got a bunch of applause. The old man is still nothing, he can give heat in skillful hands.

    A good plane, but its star has sunk. It is not needed in the West, and we cannot depend on a NATO member country. Therefore, the decline of this company can be easily predicted, it was under the USSR that they were ordered in thousands.

    James Bond was put in L-39 in one of the films.
    What happened

    The rocket flying in the terrain enveloping mode is theoretically Harpoon anti-ship missile, in any case it was fired from the place where the British frigates should have Harpoon.
    The plot is of course fantastic, the weapons too smile but the shooting is beautiful
    Sitting behind from Bond, by the way, looks like Prince Harry, or did it seem to me? smile

    That Czechs, Americans, IBM supplied counting machines (better than an iron felix) to the administration of the concentration camps. Yes, and their other companies got dirty: GM transported spare parts to
    May 8, 1945, and one petrochemical company helped the Nazis to establish the production of synthetic fuel for Wehrmacht tanks.
