Iran opens new underground air force base Oghab 44

The Iranian authorities announced the commissioning of a new underground air force base of the Republic of Oghab 44 ("Eagle 44"). This is reported by the Iranian press with references to representatives of the military department of the Islamic Republic.

Major General Mohammad Hossein Baqeri and Commander of the Iranian Army Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi participated in the opening ceremony of the base. An underground air force base can host a variety of military aircraft. aviationincluding fighters, bombers and unmanned aerial vehicles.

The base itself consists of several sections, including a combat duty zone, aircraft hangars, a repair and maintenance center, navigation and airfield services, fuel storage facilities, and a command post. The base can accept new fighters and prepare them for combat missions.

The Oghab 44 air base is not the first facility of its kind in Iran. Such bases are built in accordance with the needs of the armed forces and civil defense requirements. They are usually located under mountainous areas so that aircraft from the base can be used for surprise operations when the enemy does not expect Iranian aircraft to launch sorties.

Earlier, the Iranian Air Force opened a special underground base for unmanned aircraft. It was named "Basic drones 313". According to the Western press, the Iranian Air Force has created a detailed plan to establish underground manned and unmanned aircraft bases throughout Iran. This is a very far-sighted move, allowing, among other things, to partially protect military facilities from US satellite intelligence, which monitors the locations of the Iranian armed forces.

We, too, would not interfere with underground shelters for strategic missile carriers and aviation in general. and not only, as the experience of the NWO has shown.

strategic aviation in sight because of the START-3 treaty

Any agreement is at least bilateral.
If one party does not comply with the requirement, the contract automatically loses force.
The USA sent their duties to ***.
Russia is not obliged to observe this treaty

[insafufa]

To begin with, deboning with parapets of aviation parking needs to be done first, and then dream about concrete shelters. Here, hangars are not made from sandwich and galvanized sheets for equipment. You are dreaming about underground airfields. In the Crimea, Murmansk, we cannot build concrete caponiers.

for military aviation, during hostilities, no shelters / caponiers, or even more so underground hangars, are needed !!!! planes should stand in a slender, tight side by side and please the eye of the admiral general)))))) air bases near Ryazan and Engels, the airfield in Saki will not let you lie !!!!!!

[yho]

Is this really due to the fact that, as a result of optimization, the number of military airfields was reduced?

[zloybond]

Taking into account the weather conditions, taking into account the "friends" around us - such bases should have been built initially as priority objects

[oleg-nekrasov-19]

At one time in the Soviet Union there were underground air bases and air bases located right in the mountains. For example, in the city of Tiraspol, the airfield was underground - more precisely, the runways were ground, and the planes climbed on elevators through special caponiers disguised as hills. There were at least 4 floors underground. So everything is new, it's a well-forgotten old

[dnestr74]

Yes ... An excellent airfield, powerful bunkers, I was there, then they gave it away for ammunition depots, during the war .. And there are enough of them in Ukraine, within the medium-range NATO OTRK they built it in the USSR.

And where will all this abyss of majors and office plankton go when the capital is transferred from Moscow to Southern Siberia? But it may well happen, because it is necessary to shift the center (sorry for the tautology) to the Center of the Russian State - to connect the regions, to stimulate the development of our spaces, to develop the Far East and Siberia, to develop its wealth, in order not only to extract a resource, but also deep redistribution on the spot provide ...

St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Krasnodar, Voronezh, Makhachkala, Krasnoyarsk are also growing in population quite well. In the suburbs of Balashikha, Mytishchi, other cities are growing very well. More than 13 million officially live in Moscow. In the Moscow region 8,5 million. That is, there are 21,5 million people in Moscow and the region. Every seventh Russian, every seventh voter in the country lives in Moscow and the Moscow region. This is a powerful electoral factor that any government will take into account. And so, in our 18 largest cities of the country (16 million and two sub-million) lives a fourth of the country's population. For me, Moscow is the largest university, scientific, cultural center, a city where a considerable number of relatives and friends managed to get help in the treatment of cardiovascular, oncological, reproductive and other diseases.

Iran, North Korea, Belarus countries under sanctions. At the same time, they developed the latest offensive weapons, which we do not have! MLRS Polonaise with a range of 300 km, high-precision missiles similar to Hymars, but with a range of standard ammunition twice as good. Iranian drones hit the Ukrainian and he only scratches his turnips, how to get rid of them. The Koreans are armed with MLRS (also an analogue of Hymars and MLRS) which has a range of 600 km. The question arises, where did we bury our billions? Why can Iran hide its planes underground, but we can't?

There is a secret factory in the Moscow region that makes drones. It is located under the reservoir. Building shelters is not a problem, the problem is the head of people in power, especially in the Ministry of Finance. We, unfortunately, will have to start with dismantling. First, it is necessary to dismantle the liberal superstructure in society, and then begin the full-fledged construction of the economy. And it's not just about the military-industrial complex. I would like to believe that I will see this in my lifetime, and not read it in Rogozin's book ...

Orientalist Karine Gevorgyan recently made a military-political review of the Middle East. She mentioned that Iran would be hard to conquer for his opponents. the whole (!) country has an underground road infrastructure.

[megadeth]

Oghab 44 air base is not the first facility of its kind in Iran

Iran also has missiles in similar multi-kilometer concrete shelters. And we have an air force in the fresh air. We probably need to take combat aviation to shelters (suddenly there will be a war with "imperialist predators") ... And about factories for the production of equipment, missiles, ammunition, etc. think before it's too late. But they are unlikely to find money for this, although abandoned, protected objects that, if desired, can be restored and used for these purposes, in Russia, mother is enough ... IMHO

[engineer74]

There was one leader of a united Europe, about 80 years ago ... He also liked to build underground shelters for all sorts of "wunderwaffles" - it did not help much ...
The guarantee of security is the determination in delivering preventive strikes and the constant demonstration of capabilities for any reason!

Sometimes it seems that Iran is a surviving fragment of the USSR. The maximum possible technological independence, its own modern military industry, simple, efficient and technologically advanced weapons, copying any necessary equipment without copyright suffering.
But we have a fleet of yachts the size of a battleship.

Unfortunately, not everything is so rosy, more than half of the details of geraniums are imported martyrs

[billy bones]

It seems so, but even under sanctions, shaheds are produced in Iran. Who prevented us from producing similar simple and effective devices using imported components. Their simplicity and cheapness are unprofitable for those who make fortunes in the military-industrial complex.
And I don't see something like building new military plants here.

Quote: Vladimir80

More than half, to put it mildly, 90% of the filling is Chinese, if the Chinese cut off their oxygen, then all production will die. The media overblown the capabilities of the Iranian military-industrial complex, which for the most part is "Lego" from imported components, the localization of production is scanty, only a low-tech component is produced locally. In the same drones, purely Iranian - plexiglass cases, tubes, wires and basic electrics, even Chinese batteries.
Iran depends on China no less than the same Poland on the United States.
That is why the Iranians do not dare to say a crooked word towards the Chinese, and point-blank "do not notice" the repressions against the Uighurs.

pay attention to the topic of the production of the Orion UAV by the Kronstadt company. It is led by the Armenian manager Isahakyan, they received 26 yards from the government of the country to organize production. Shoigu himself came and got acquainted with the affairs back in 2017. Alas, there are Orions. But no one saw them at the front. These specialists bought optics from Canada. Then they were refused. Then they bought it from the Turks. They supply them to Bayraktar. But something has changed there and the UAV is there but in mind. Rostec distinguished itself by increasing the production of Krasnopol many times over. Of course, this is a military secret, but Krasnopol cannot hit moving targets without illumination. As it turned out, Orion 30 should provide its illumination. but, alas, no one has seen them at the front. There are gunners and spotters. But these are stalkers who will simply be overwhelmed when their backlight is detected. And the tanks of Europe are already on their way.

In fact, this task is performed by artillery spotters and gunners of the Orlan type, which are much smaller than the Orions and are operationally subordinate to the command of the artillery brigade. Orions are medium-altitude scouts, they work in the interests of the corps command to reveal the situation in the nearest (tactical) and operational depth of the enemy. And highlighting targets on the battlefield and in the tactical rear is the business of small and nimble Eagles.

Great idea! If the issue of ventilation (which is one of the most important for hangars with such equipment) is resolved qualitatively, then this building is simply superb!

[Gestas]

Good learning, of course. One question, Iran is a mountainous country (Iran is almost entirely located on the Iranian Plateau, most of which is covered with mountains), with such a relief it is difficult for the same satellites to track the direction of work - mining / mining / construction, etc. Plus, the natural reinforcements of structures are rocks. Plus, carrying out such work on a countrywide scale - go ahead and sort it out for each specific object and its laying scheme. To stir up such a construction site (several single construction sites) on a plain, with a constant satellite (of all purposes, but, by default, double) presence - indicate the coordinates of the object and the direction of the object. Well, it’s not the metro that they decided to lay in the steppe, reinforcing it with reinforced reinforced concrete structures. Yes, and on the plain in the ground, such facilities are built mainly by open-casting, it is cheaper. Although the method of penetration will not greatly improve the situation.

[Oleg Apushkin]

You can see they care about the products. We have not had and will not have this, products have been standing without hangars for years, until officials and generals like the THIVED GENERAL BULGAKOV are imprisoned and shot, there will be no changes for the better.

On the one hand, they seem to be vulnerable, so many satellites will surely find a place of departure, it is much easier to fire one rocket there than to perforate the entire ground airfield. But if building in the mountains outside is also vulnerable, you can make a blockage by firing on the mountain. In the mountains, it is still difficult for air defense to work, low-flying targets are poorly carried out.
