The US Air Force has worked out the scenario of a full-scale war with Russia in Alaska

F-16 fighter during exercises on Shemya island

The US Air Force conducted exercises in which they worked out the scenario of a full-scale war with Russia. As Forbes magazine writes, training aviation was held in Alaska.

The US Air Force conducted exercises in Alaska, in the framework of which they rehearsed a full-scale war with Russia. According to the scenario of the exercise, American fighters were transferred to the airfield of Shemya Island, closest to the Russian border, from which they were supposed to intercept Russian missile carriers and bombers heading for US territory over the Bering Sea.

According to the magazine's military expert David Ax, since May of this year, the American Air Force has been practicing the rapid removal of aircraft from air bases and dispersing them to small airfields in anticipation of a Russian missile strike. For this purpose, numerous trainings are carried out to practice the transfer to small landing sites. The US Air Force Command believes that if dispersed, at least some aircraft will survive and be able to repel the Russians.

These exercises were a rehearsal for a full-scale war with Russia. Air Force expects Russians to attack major bases with ballistic and cruise missiles during wartime

- the article says.

Such airfields include Shemya, where the last exercises took place. Among the disadvantages of this airfield, the author named the remoteness from the main territory, constant fogs and storms in the area of ​​the island, and from the advantages - the ideal location for intercepting Russian aircraft over the Bering Sea. The island is located just 322 km from the Russian coast.

(...) No other US airfield, not an aircraft carrier, can place planes so close to Russia

- cursed the expert.

And what, after the start of a full-scale war with Russia, someone was going to fly somewhere? After the start of a full-scale war with Russia, no one will fly away anywhere else.

And if it manages to take off before it reaches it, the war will be over.

[Vladimir Mashkov]

They are preparing ... very bad people! They are working out. Learn.

[knn54]

All the same, the ENEMY is Russia, and China, so, the rival, let it be the main one.

[figwam]

The island is located just 322 km from the Russian coast.

This island will disappear from the world map in the first minutes of the war.

[Spring fluff]

Where do you get this nonsense? In the United States, there are about 15 thousand airfields alone. This is 10 (ten) times more than all our deployed nuclear warheads. And besides airfields, there are other targets. I'm not even talking about other countries. So they will fly.

[TatarinSSSR]

You are absolutely right. Russia simply does not have enough missiles to attack even the most important air and ground bases of the United States in the first hours of the war, not to mention the bases of Great Britain, Japan and other allies of America. Russia has only one way in a full-scale war with the West - an exchange of nuclear strikes to the last Russian.

[bashkir]

I agree with you. Russia has only one way. Disintegrate everything into dust. And we will go to heaven)))

[Dmitry Zip]

Fly away! Ukraine to the moon. She said that she has the most perfect space program!

The US Air Force has worked out the scenario of a full-scale war with Russia in Alaska

Here it would be necessary to clarify why in Alaska? Have you thought about returning the unpaid or decided to show "John's mother" to "Kuz'kin's father"?
They work out the scripts in Hollywood, and then on the set they manage to kill each other. You should be more careful with this "full scale" - the "green men" would not have to kiss their boots ...

[Metlik]

It is not Alaska that is of strategic importance, but the Berenga Strait - it will connect the northern and Pacific fleets.

[Normal ok]

There were articles on VO about how (and why the B-52 still exists) the US strategic aviation operates under the threat of a nuclear conflict. It was said that when there is a threat of impact, B-52s take off within 20-70 minutes by a conveyor. Someone will survive. Now they remembered about the training of fighter aircraft. Actually, nothing new. This was during the Cold War. Both we and they then practiced the dispersal of fighters along secondary airfields, and even along highways.
PS. Only now they are training not against Russia (this is just a convenient version), but against China.

[1976AG]

Are they training against China in Alaska? Are you sure ?

Well, it's just that some are calmer, more comfortable ...

[Ross xnumx]

Of the minuses of this airfield, the author named the remoteness from the main territory, constant fogs and storms in the area of ​​the island

The bird can be seen from the flight, the good fellow - from the snot, the author-moreman - according to the words: "compass", "storm" ...

[tralflot1832]

At military exercises, under the USSR, from the division and above. The divisional commander always had 2 plans. "A" We are advancing, "B" we are retreating. Here, with airfields in the USA for fighter-bomber aviation, everything is fine, there are a lot of them. But to overtake It’s not difficult to get a plane to an alternate airfield, but it’s worth bringing the supporting infrastructure there. Nothing unusual is happening at the moment. Whoever defended the skies of the Motherland, knows what it means to raise at least a regiment, all of a sudden.

[agoran]

He served in the GSVG, but in the leader regiment in the Baltics it was even better. 22 relocations per year, both in the regiment and in squadrons.
On the subject: Shemya is a small island, well, not Alaska. Runway 3 km, for heavy transport workers in SMU is not enough. Yes, land the IBA squadron, refuel, but no more.

[poquello]

Quote: tralflot1832

it is worth dragging the supporting infrastructure of huge resources there.

therefore, they are already burying cigarettes, matches and a can of kerosene))))))))

[tralflot1832]

And they drag the whiskey with them.

[t-12]

but to drag the supporting infrastructure there

What kind of infrastructure? Fuel tanks, ammunition bunker, headquarters bunker, radio station, weather station, field kitchen ... what else? In principle, all this can be kept ready in peacetime.

[tralflot1832]

By radio, they can only contact: "kitchen kitchen I'm a jackal." hundreds of tons of cargo.

[Egoza]

Quote: t-12

In principle, all this can be kept ready even in peacetime.

But sabotage can also be carried out in peacetime. Pooh! And there are no blanks. Where are Petrov and Bashirov?
Well, or equestrian Buryats submariners! )))

[Tugarin]

We, too, would not hurt to conduct such training.

[isv000]

Quote: tralflot1832

Those who defended the skies of the Motherland know what it means to raise at least a regiment, all of a sudden. I saw it in the GSVG, it was terribly beautiful.

At the Sary-Shagan training ground, I saw a missile minus a target - terribly beautiful!

[tralflot1832]

Years ago, I don't remember the airfield in the GSVG. But I was a witness how the MIG 23 regiment went into the sky immediately from concrete shelters. Logistics worked out to automatism.

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

Do they think that we will not hit the nearest airfield to Russia (Shemya) with missiles with a nuclear warhead in the event of a large-scale war?

Their logic is strange.

[akarfoxhound]

No other American airfield, due to such a small proximity to the Russian border, has such an enormous potential in grabbing the lulls! That's enough for you!

[Military77]

.

No other US airfield, not an aircraft carrier, can place planes so close to Russia.

So this is a plus))) Row, do not row coordinates do not change. Two caliber with YABCH and hello.

[poquello]

"According to the scenario of the exercises, American fighters were transferred to the airfield of Shemya Island, closest to the Russian border, .."
in, we also need to transfer to the Shemya island, "who first sat down - then ate"))))))))))))
"Numerous training exercises are being carried out to practice the transfer to small landing sites. The US Air Force Command believes that if dispersed, at least some aircraft will survive and be able to repel the Russians."
in, s400 missiles can simply be launched in the direction - someone will be intercepted)))))))))))))

[Klingon]

I am always amazed at the stupidity of the scenario of their exercises, then the tank wedges are going to repel, then the missile carriers are intercepted over their territory ...
It will be necessary to repel ICBMs, Vanguards, Poseidons and all sorts of Iskander with Daggers. Well, for the Tu-160 and MiG-31, you also need to be able to keep up with it .. The Penguin will do it ??

[Serge-667]

And someone, a few days ago, in the comments, doubted about NATO's plans.

[Fedorovich]

And I thought the task of the Air Force in this case is to drop the tiltrotor on the roof of the museum ...

[DPN]

That's why the pike is in the pond, so that the crucian does not doze. Ordinary teachings.

[Sands Careers General]

The US Air Force has worked out the scenario of a full-scale war with Russia in Alaska

Sounds like the name of a script for another stupid Hollywood movie with a bunch of cranberries, where the captain of Omerica, Whatman and other avengers will be.

[Nord11]

As always, the generals are preparing for the last war ..

[Zomanus]

They just already dream of war ... America and Europe. So many jambs were pushed that only a big fire could hide them.

[tolmachiev51]

"........... on the eve of the strike of Russian missiles"!? - this is how to understand David. Comrade carry the "snowstorm." almost never happens.

[Lynx2000]

The island is located just 322 km from the Russian coast.

How was it measured? Distance between about. Bering and the coast (eastern) of Kamchatka, if I'm not mistaken, about 190 km (along Cape Africa).
Attu Island, if I am not mistaken, the westernmost of the Aleutian Islands is separated from the eastern coast of Kamchatka (Cape Africa) about 700 km., And it is west of about. Shemya, i.e. closer to the Kamchatka coast.

[Dikson]

Well, everything is correct .. - in Europe, the third jump airfield is ready, Armored vehicles are already in bulk, Rockets are going to be installed in Ukraine .. Given the holes in the Eastern direction, they will start from there .. And then you look and our friend Erdogan from the South will help ..

[Jacket in stock]

But I'm wondering how long it takes for our fighters to lift a couple of cars into the air except for the one on duty?
And the bombers?
Does Vicki write that it takes more than ten hours to cook the "swan" and that more than ten maintenance vehicles are involved for this?

[Fedorovich]

Does pedivikia accidentally write about the initial readiness?
