The Bulgarian Defense Ministry intends to terminate the contract with Russia for the repair of MiG-29 fighters

106

Bulgaria intends to finally terminate the contract with Russia for the repair of the MiG-29 fighters of the Bulgarian Air Force. The Sofia edition "Monitor" reports about it with reference to the Ministry of Defense of the republic.

As the newspaper writes, the Bulgarian military department intends to finally terminate the contract with Russia, the reason is called "violation of the timing of the relevant work." There are no other details yet.

The Bulgarians do not intend to leave the aircraft without repair, until 2024 five fighters must be in combat readiness, so the country's Ministry of Defense announced plans to conclude new contracts for the repair of fighters, but with other performers, among which Belarus and Ukraine are being considered. According to some sources, Kiev has already "expressed interest" in this contract.



Note that it is not the first time that Russia has been accused of disrupting the repair deadlines for the Bulgarian MiG-29s. At the end of April this year, Sofia accused Moscow of not fulfilling contractual obligations and delaying the repair of aircraft engines, although the reason was objective - the Bulgarians themselves closed the entrance to Russian specialists because of the pandemic. However, this did not prevent charges from being brought forward and an "additional" 17 months for the repairs to be carried out.

The very fact that a message appeared about the intention of the Bulgarian Defense Ministry to refuse Russia's services during the repair of the MiG-29 seems strange, especially since just a few months ago the Bulgarians did not want to contact either Ukraine or Poland, so as not to "get bogged down in legal disputes."

      . As the newspaper writes, the Bulgarian military department intends to finally terminate the contract with Russia, the reason is called "violation of the timing of the relevant work." There are no other details yet.

      The Bulgarians do not intend to leave the aircraft without repair, until 2024 five fighters must be in combat readiness, so the country's Ministry of Defense announced plans to conclude new contracts for the repair of fighters, but with other performers, among which Belarus and Ukraine are being considered.

      Have you decided not to repair it in Russia and write off the MiG-29?
      .The Ukrainian defense-industrial complex was again shaken by a scandal related to large-scale theft. A MiG-29 was stolen from the territory of the Lviv State Aviation Repair Plant (LGARZ), which is part of the state corporation "Ukroboronprom". The investigative group of the State Bureau of Investigation of Ukraine found out that this is not an isolated case, previously there were similar cases at this enterprise.

      The theft of a front-line fighter MiG-29 from the territory of LGARZ, discovered recently, is far from an isolated case. The Ukrainian magazine Defense Express reports on the progress of the investigation of this incident. According to the information received by the publication, the Ukrainian Air Force transferred the fighter to the plant for repair and conversion into a training version of the MiG-29MU1. The MiG-29 aircraft with tail number 26 landed at the airfield of the Lviv plant on February 18, 2020. And already on February 27 (after 8 days) it was already dismantled. Parts, blocks and assemblies removed from the fighter were gone. As it turned out, the same fate befell some other MiG-29 aircraft sent to LGARZ for scheduled maintenance, repair or modernization.
      The investigation in this case is being conducted by the Lviv Territorial Administration of the State Bureau of Investigation (SBI). At the time of the procedural actions of law enforcement agencies, work at the plant was stopped, and all the property of the enterprise is described and subject to accounting. As it turned out, under arrest was the property belonging not only to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, but also to the Air Force of neighboring Poland. One of the Polish companies (fulfilling a state order for the repair of military aircraft of the Polish Air Force) sent aircraft to the Lviv plant.

      How long the investigation will take is unknown. Polish military aviation for this entire period will be left without its combat-ready MiGs, Defense Express magazine sneers.

      You can also recall the "repair" of the Croatian MiG-21 in Ukraine, after which the cars were written off due to their unsatisfactory technical condition.

          Thus, they can strengthen the army of Ukraine at the expense of the United States. And they will turn everything off by writing off fighters due to unsatisfactory repairs on the territory of Ukraine.

        The guy was a refugee from Chechnya. In Grozny, the plant repaired the SU-25 damaged in Afghanistan. There they checked something and there was more than one engine for the aircraft. One plane missing
        Somewhere a month later, they found it high in the mountains in an aul.

            On August 10, 1946, the 55th SAM was transformed into the 321st aviation repair base.

            On June 27, 1952, the 321st Aviation Repair Base was reorganized into the 121st Aviation Repair Plant of the Air Force. Since 1952, the development of the repair of MiG-15, MiG-17, MiG-19, Il-28 aircraft and VK-1 engines began.

            In 1961, the repair of the MiG-21 began. In the 60s, the enterprise repaired the AL-7F aircraft engine.

            Since 1972, the repair of the R27F2M-300 began.

            In 1975, the repair of the P29-300 began.

            In 1978, at 121 ARZ, the development of the repair of the MiG-23 began.

            In the second half of the 80s, the plant mastered the repair of the RD-33 aircraft engine.

            In 1991, the company started repairing the MiG-29 fighter. In the nineties, the plant mastered the repair of GTDE-117, AI-9, KSA-2.

            In 1995, the repair of the AL-31F aircraft engine began.

            In 1999, at 121 ARZs, the development of repairs for the Su-27 and Su-25 began.

            In 2002, the plant began to modernize the Su-25 aircraft into the Su-25SM version.

            In 2011, the plant began to master the repair of the D-18T engine. Work on mastering the repair and overhaul of the D-18T engine was discontinued in 2014 due to the import substitution program and the severing of business ties with industrial enterprises of Ukraine.

            In 2014, work was resumed on the repair and modernization of the Su-27 and MiG-29 aircraft.

            Promising areas of the enterprise:

            - mastering the repair of aircraft of the Su-30 M2 type;

            - mastering the repair of PKI aircraft of the Su-25SM type;

            - mastering the repair of an aircraft of the Su-27 type and its PKI;

            - mastering the repair of an aircraft of the Su-25UB type with modernization into the Su-25UBSM version;

            - mastering the repair of an aircraft of the Su-25 type with modernization into the version of the Su-25SM3. [1]

            Currently, it is one of the flagship aircraft repair in Russia.

            In addition to repairing aviation equipment, JSC 121 ARP offers the population services in the social sphere: a banquet hall, a hotel, a medical center. [2]

        The Bulgarian Defense Ministry intends to terminate the contract with Russia for the repair of MiG-29 fighters, Yesterday, 12:09 Bulgaria intends to finally terminate the contract with Russia for the repair of the MiG-29 fighters of the Bulgarian Air Force. The Sofia edition "Monitor" reports about it with reference to the Ministry of Defense of the republic. As the newspaper writes, the Bulgarian military department intends to finally terminate the contract with Russia, the reason is called "violation of the timing of the relevant work." No other details yet ...

        The author of the article on VO is anonymous, totally confused in the topic! This is another order! It must be admitted that the heading of the article is in the gas. "Monitor" fails: Here is the text itself / my translation /:

        --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        "The Minister of Defense canceled the order for MiGs for 20 million leva. Acting MO Georgy Panayotov terminated the order for the repair of long-range missiles R-27 due to technical violations during the procedurethat cannot be eliminated.
        The order is estimated at 21,6 million leva / 10,8 million euros / excluding VAT and provides for the repair of 18 R-27 air-to-air missiles. It was launched by the last government of Boyko Borisov at the end of 2019 and is progressing at a slow pace, including due to the pandemic.
        (Link and screen shots from the MO website with ordering: https://pp.mod.bg/MO-DOA-2019-102)

        Now you need to re-declare your order. The reason for the termination of the order is "violations found when opening it, which cannot be eliminated without changing the conditions under which the procedure was announced."
        Ukrainian "Ukrainmash" and Belarusian "Belspetsvnesh-tekhnika" are interested in participating in the tender. Bulgaria still relies only on old MiG-29 fighters, which are mainly supported through Russia ... "

        -------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------

        As you can see, we are talking about R-27 missiles, and the problem is in the tender procedures. The Borisov government has fallen, and, as an official / between elections / government, conducts checks on all tenders and resumes the affairs of the previous government. This is normal practice. hi

        Note that it is not the first time that Russia has been accused of disrupting the repair deadlines for the Bulgarian MiG-29s. At the end of April this year, Sofia accused Moscow of not fulfilling contractual obligations and delaying the repair of aircraft engines, although the reason was objective - the Bulgarians themselves closed the entrance to Russian specialists because of the pandemic. However, this did not prevent charges from being brought forward and an "additional" 17 months for the repairs to be carried out.

        It's a different story! RSK MiG has indeed disrupted the terms of the contract more than once. The Bulgarian side went on about the Russian. company and extended the term, but as you can see, RSK MiG again will not cope, for the difference from the Belarusians, who repaired our Su-25s by 5 +++ and received official gratitude from the Bulgarians. MO! By the way, the author is anonymous and is wrong here, repeating that "Bulgarians themselves closed the entrance to Russian specialists because of the pandemic"! The Bulgarian authorities did not close, while the Russian. specialists working on the Balkan Stream route came and worked without restrictions! This is RSK MiG, refused to send its specialists to Bulgaria, motivated by the pandemic! Unfortunately, the problems with the execution of orders from RSK MiG are not new. Back in 2003, we had a contract with them for the repair of the MiG-29, which they did not fulfill and had to stop it.
        Orderly non-fulfillment of contracts forced the Bulgarians. the authorities to discuss the issue of further cooperation with RSK MiG and to explore alternative possibilities. The issue was discussed recently.

            Danilov said that the issue of creating a cyber troop was unanimously supported by all members of the Ukrainian Security Council. 21 people who attended the discussion of this issue (at first the meeting was called secret), spoke in favor of the implementation of plans to create this kind of troops in Ukraine.

            Danilov:

            In the near future, the President of the country will sign a corresponding decree. Troops will be formed, this will make Ukraine more secure.

            Ukrainian experts note that cyber troops can fall under the jurisdiction of both the Ministry of Defense and the Security Service of Ukraine. At the moment, they have not decided on their specific "binding". At the same time, it is already known that Ukraine's “friends” from the countries of the North Atlantic military bloc will help in the formation of the first “cyber squads”.

            In this regard, it can be assumed that the so-called "daughters of officers, whose not everything is so unambiguous", will be added on the territory of Ukraine. Also, under the guise of cyber troops in Ukraine, hacker groups can also act, which are legalized with the help of state law - in the same way as a few years ago Kiev legalized nationalist battalions, which were illegal armed groups.

          30 September, 2021 Russia delivered components for the MiG-29 aircraft of the Bulgarian Air Force ahead of schedule.
          RSK "MiG" under the contract delivered ahead of schedule components to maintain the health of the fleet of MiG-29 aircraft of the Bulgarian Air Force. This was reported to reporters on Thursday in the press service of the corporation.
          "In the course of negotiations held in August, the leadership of the Bulgarian Air Force and the MiG Corporation agreed on the supply of components for the MiG-29 ahead of schedule. Last week we shipped the final batch of aviation technical equipment under the existing contracts. increase the combat readiness of the Bulgarian Air Force ", - quotes the press service of the words of the managing director of RAC "MiG" Andrey Gerasimchuk.
          The corporation also noted that the parties intend to continue cooperation,
          and the information that appeared in the media about the possible termination of contracts for the maintenance of MiG-29 aircraft of the Bulgarian Air Force does not correspond to reality. "

        According to insider information from the Bulgarian Ministry of Defense, the problem arose with the change of some elements provided for change in the terms of reference for the contract! OA RSK MiG started work, but suddenly !!! belay found that they are not in his warehouses! Either they are no longer produced, or they have not been found in cash at home. The Mikoyanites offered to replace them with others, but at a price significantly higher than in the contract! The customer agreed, but did not accept paying 3 times more, motivating that the rise in price was not due to the ego of the wine and he was not obliged to pay extra for the contractor's inconsistencies, because this does not happen through the customer's fault!
        In addition, there were problems with changing the wheels and ejection seats, these are the main security systems! The customer indicated them as key elements of the repair, they had to be completely changed!

        Probably on the part of Russia, too, there is no particularly strong interest, no matter what the cost, to get the contract. Bulgarians are a very problematic and unreliable partner from whom one can expect some kind of set-ups, non-compliance with obligations, unfair accusations, etc.
        Politically, too, this NATO country is not friendly.

        For the normal market price, they would probably have done a repair. But there probably the Bulgarians have their own history, it was necessary to come up with "compelling" reasons why the contract would be given to Ukraine. The required result of the repair will fail, they will buy aircraft from the French or the United States.

        This is not correct, forfeit in such cases. The penalty is logical when buying if the buyer refuses to buy.

        This is a post-warranty service.
        For example, the situation, the owner of the aircraft decided to dispose of them after many years of use. He will no longer need service. For what to pay a forfeit?

        It's just that if the Bulgarians terminate the contract, then Russia will not have the obligation to service these aircraft according to the price list. If the Bulgarians need it, they will have to negotiate again at different prices.
