Serbian Air Force has been replenished with the first pair of MiG-29 fighters transferred by Belarus

24

The Serbian Air Force was replenished with two more MiG-29 fighters. According to the Ministry of Defense of the republic, the military received two fighters from the presence of the Belarusian Air Force.

On April 17, the Russian military transport aircraft An-124 Ruslan landed in Batainitsa, delivering the first pair of MiG-29 fighters to Serbia. In total, Belarus handed over to Serbia four fighters from the presence of its Air Force. The handover took place back in February 2019, but the planes began to arrive in Serbia only now, since they were undergoing major overhaul with modernization, carried out in Baranovichi.



The Serbs explained that the Belarusian MiG-29s underwent exactly the same modernization as the Russian MiG-29s, also transferred to the Serbian Air Force. Thus, after the arrival of the second pair of "Belarusian" fighters, the Serbian Air Force will have 14 MiG-29s in a fully operational state. Let us remind that six fighters were handed over by Russia, four by Belarus and four of its own, which remained "from the former luxury."

It is specified that the "Belarusian" MiGs underwent modernization at the aircraft plant in Baranovichi, while those transferred by Russia were modernized in Serbia at the Moma Stanojlovic military aircraft repair plant in Batajnica with the participation of Russian specialists. In addition, thanks to the Russian side, the Serbs were able to modernize the four MiG-29s that remained in service with the Air Force (three single-seat MiG-29Bs and one twin MiG-29UB).

        There are always options, you just have to muffle the voice of conscience. This is politics. Were there options in Ukraine - were there, were there options in the Czech Republic - were, the whole question is in honor and love for your country, and not for green papers and preferences from patrons

      Serbia will never forget 1999 and Lukashenka will not forget either, he is the only President who made an official visit during the bombings. And on board his plane they loaded humanitarian aid in the maximum possible amount.

          It was then that it dawned on him that he would be next. Therefore, the "U-turn over the Atlantic", and the rush to Pristina, and the threat to Clinton with nuclear weapons (yes, there was such a thing, albeit in a tangled language), and an urgent search for a successor, bringing him to power on an emergency basis ... and the beginning of restoration defense capability of the Russian Federation.
          So the attack on Yugoslavia (Montenegro was still with it then) became for our country a cornerstone and a turning point from the abyss.

      When the collective West and the United States go to war against Russia (a nuclear-free or nuclear conflict), then to everyone who does not want to abandon morality and conscience at the mercy of mythical words about human rights and false values ​​of Europe / democracy - every country and people (the union of peoples in the country ) will have to, of course, sacrificing their lives and unsteady peace, to take one or another side of history and Truth.
      And Serbia will also need to decide - at a critical moment in history to defend its independence and the integrity of the state or finally surrender everything to Islamic radicals, neighbors and Albanians. Because it is precisely in such dramatic and terrible times that every filth raises its heads, and, knowing about the incomplete obedience of the Serbs, this trash will be supported by the collective West, which sleeps and sees Serbia as divided and lying in the dust of history.

          And in 1914, and in 1941, as well as in 1812, the peoples consolidated around their government. And the government, feeling the support of the people, made decisions in accordance with the interests of the state.
          At turning points, events will flow rapidly, but in such conditions, if the government acts like Pashinyan, the state will cease to exist. Remember the annexation of Austria by Germany and the capture of Czechoslovakia, when the political will of the leadership did not give a decisive impetus to the self-preservation of the state and the people.

            Therefore, there was practically no resistance to the Anschluss.

            Do not understand. Austria and Czechoslovakia have ceased to exist? They worked very well for the defenses of the Wehrmacht.

                  I don’t know - I’m not a Czech or a Slovak, nor an Austrian.
                  Do you offer us the same? In the sense, "to enter the European family with common values"? So they won't let us in. For 25 years ours climbed there, but as we were savages and uncivilized for them, we remained.

    I think that the Serbs have remained the most adequate of all the "brothers-Slovens" who have betrayed Russia! I hope that the Serbs will not demolish monuments to Soviet and Russian soldiers, they will not throw a stone in their history!
