Ukrainian Air Force replenished with helicopters transferred by the Latvian Ministry of Defense

28

Ukraine has replenished its helicopter fleet, a batch of rotary-wing machines was transferred to Kyiv by Latvia. This was announced by the Minister of Defense of the Republic Artis Pabriks.

According to an entry made by the Latvian minister in one of the social networks, the Ministry of Defense of the Republic handed over four helicopters to the Ukrainian Air Force: a pair of Mi-2s and a pair of Mi-17s. Moreover, the equipment was transferred free of charge, as a gift. True, not everything is good with the technical condition of the helicopters, one of the Mi-17s definitely needs a major overhaul. The remaining helicopters were planned to be painted before being sent to Ukraine. The equipment was delivered disassembled.



The Ukrainian Air Force has just received four helicopters donated by Latvia. Soon they will be included in the fleet of the Ukrainian army

Pabriks wrote.

Recall that the Baltic countries are the most ardent supporters of the Zelensky regime and help Ukraine even to their own detriment, if only the Ukrainian army inflicted more damage on Russia. In Latvia, they even allowed their citizens to fight on the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine against the Russian army, and changes in the legislation of the republic, allowing to go to Ukraine, were adopted literally in 20 minutes. At the same time, participation in hostilities on the side of the LDNR is a criminal offense. This is the electoral law.

Recently, in Riga, they announced the return of universal military duty, since the "professional" Latvian army is not able to "stop the Russian invasion."

        Latvia expects to pay only three . Although the delivery in disassembled form gives carte blanche to Ukrainian ensigns. winked Perhaps the Russian missiles will be spent on other purposes

        When it comes to the analysis of "flights" with the Balts - I hope the survivors, on the shores of the Kara Sea there will be a place for a "new homeland".

    Today, news is circulating in our groups that Kazakhstan has been convicted of supplying weapons to the square.
    If this information is confirmed repeatedly. That is a funny situation.

    And what about a couple of Mi-17s? They had as many as 4 Mi-17s and 2 Mi-2t in the Air Force.

    Judging by the state of technology, it is more suitable for donor organs.

    Not "the Baltic countries", but "regimes". The country will exist even when the regime falls.

    It’s a pity I’m already almost disabled and I’m not fit for war. But, if the Chukhons begin to pinch, I will go to the cartridge factory and stand on the assembly line until I fall dead. This Chukhonian rabble is so unpleasant to me.
    Once at school, we riveted hinges for window vents at work, they helped the plant to fulfill the plan. For some reason, I managed to do 15 times more than the rest. Where the neighbors in the workplace made a handful, I made one and a half buckets and, in general, did not get tired - only the mood became better. And even if one loop then fell apart or crookedly came out - everyone was like a selection, at least put it in a shop window.
    So this time, I think I can handle it, although my health is almost gone at all - I can handle it anyway. If only more lead later went to each rotten carcass, which there now dress up as Europeans and see no edge at all. And to everyone who is now mountaineers there ... on the bones of our fathers and grandfathers - also let my bullets get it.
    No one is sorry, and NO ONE should feel sorry for them there. They made their choice. Choices always have consequences. Let them get there as soon as possible.

      The "Baltic tiger" is not as scary as it is painted. Certainly the issue can be resolved not at the cost of such sacrifices on your part.

        Then let them know whose monuments are being destroyed, no matter what the victims are. You can’t return them to their place in their original form, but you have to. Sooner or later.
