The first anti-aircraft missile systems C-300 were delivered to Venezuela


The first anti-aircraft missile systems C-300 were delivered to Venezuela. The purchase of Buk-М2 medium-range mobile missile systems and the long-range C-300ВМ was approved in September of the 2009, and only now began deliveries of air defense missile systems.

The Venezuelan government also approved the allocation of 156 million dollars to train personnel and purchase training simulators for C-300BM Antey-2500 and 9К37М2 / 9К317 Russian-made Buk-М2 simulators.

In addition to these two systems, in recent years, Venezuela has acquired other Russian-made anti-aircraft systems - 300 23-mm guns ZU-23 / ZOM-1-4, more than a thousand Igla-S portable complexes, as well as an unspecified number of mobile missile systems S- 125 "Pechora-2M", which are already in the country and transferred to operational units.
Currently, the C-125 Pechora-2M is equipped with several air defense units deployed in strategic areas of the country and are complementary to seven JLY-11 and three JY-1B radar systems purchased in China.

Air defense units are now consolidated into air defense brigades, which are created and subordinated to the Joint Command of Aerospace Defense (Comando Aéreo de Defensa Aeroespacial Integral - Cadai) of the Strategic Operational Command (Comando Estratégico Operacional - CEO) of the National Armed Forces. Recently, the 19-I and 39-I air defense brigades were formed, the command post of the latter is located in Caracas.

      hi It will be doubly pleasant if Maduro succeeds Chávez. If his opponent comes to power, then our S-300 will turn into an element of the American missile defense against "Iran" ...

          Of course, it is difficult to replace Chavez, but the fact that there is no equal to him does not mean that the country with its subsoil should be again given to American and British corporations, the latter just "eat" and give it, they do not know the measures, and the conscience of their leadership never torments.

      The execution of the contract of 2009 (concluded under the export credit issued by Russia for $ 2,2 billion for Venezuela) continues

      On April 4, the first of two ordered divisions (batteries) of the s-300vm system arrived
      the second will arrive in the fall, also in the summer the battery BUKM2E should arrive


      interestingly, the RF Ministry of Defense ordered 4 S-300v4 batteries for the ground forces, with the delivery in 2014, this is under the contract
      And for Venezuela, completely new batteries are being manufactured

      ps- photo (clickable) Venezuela’s new echolonized air defense structure (this concept was developed by Rosoboronexport and the Venezuelan military) - green systems (some of which) have already arrived in Venezuela

        - Well, I don’t know how you got there in the tavern, we also had a case in the Far East. Given, back in the 90s in my opinion. Also, somehow, these imperfections sailed to Vladivostok. And also went to the tavern. They started the right to download there, molesting a girl, the girl and the guy were - well, word for word - and there was no need for guards with machine guns. Zas-ran-tsa for the zugunder, the kumpol was tapped to be healthy, and the pin-dos were taken away by helicopter with a concussion. And no protection is needed. To them themselves would attach security.
        I also once attended such a meeting. About 5 years ago they sailed to us again. They sat down in a tavern, drank, had fun, it seemed quietly, peacefully, they drunk their girls from the ship with vodka. It seems without excesses. Most importantly, the whites sat and drank separately, the blacks separately. This is their "democracy".

        The main thing is different: where the country's leadership is looking. Chavez was for the striped bone in the throat, so they planted carcinogens in the hope of changing the leader, and with it the course of the country. They know how to count striped cents: they want to solve the problem of power in Venezuela at a cheaper price, without intervention, by replacing the leadership. This has rolled before. Therefore, ours need not only to "strengthen the defense" of the center of independence from the Amers, but also to the health of Comrade. Maduro take care.

        The media published a statement by the Minister of National Defense of Venezuela and the head of the command of strategic operations of the Army General Enri Ranhel Silva on the creation of the Pechora Base, located in the area of ​​Josef Kamejo International Airport in Las Piedras (Paraguan Peninsula), which houses a battery of Pechora-2M self-propelled air defense systems »Ten more similar bases are being created on the territory of the country as part of the formation of the joint air defense command (CADAI). In total, to equip them in accordance with the contract of September 2009, 11 Pechora-2M complexes were ordered.
        On February 4, 2012, a military parade in honor of the "Day of National Dignity" - the 20th anniversary of the failed coup attempt undertaken in 1992 under the leadership of Lieutenant Colonel Hugo Chavez - is to take place in the Venezuelan capital of Caracas. In preparation for the parade on January 20, its rehearsal was held, at which combat vehicles of the Russian modernized anti-aircraft missile system Pechora-2M, supplied to Venezuela, first appeared. According to known data, in total Venezuela ordered 11 divisions of the Pechora-2M air defense system, the first of which were delivered to this country in June 2011.

      At the end of December 2008, a contract came into force for the Russian side to supply the upgraded Pechora-2M air defense systems to Egypt, Syria, Libya, Myanmar, Vietnam, Venezuela and Turkmenistan. The total cost of deliveries is about $ 250 million.
      The volume of the international market for modernized S-125 air defense systems is estimated at 500 systems

      S-125 Pechora-2M - Russian modification of the air defense system developed by OJSC "Defense Systems". The minimum ESR of the target is up to 0,1 m²], a complex of radio-technical protection (CRTZ) from anti-radar missiles (PRR) has been introduced. The system was tested at the firing range; during shelling of the PRR complex, none of them hit the target]. Protection against active and passive interference is provided by the introduction of new equipment: automatic noise compensation, quasi-coherent accumulation, digital 4-channel SDS system (selection of moving targets).

      Stells F-117 shot down the 125th and is still in demand. There is no better advertisement good

" Belarus is the coordinator of efforts to create a unified air defense system of Venezuela.
    Venezuelan organizations will conclude contracts with organizations of Belarus and a number of other states for the purchase of goods, works and services for dual and military purposes. According to independent experts, along with enterprises of the military-industrial complex of Belarus, Russian, Chinese and Iranian companies should have acted ........ the country's air defense system should be comprehensive (layered by range and altitude) and integrated, combining radar means under a single control electronic warfare and countermeasures against precision weapons, as well as anti-aircraft missile systems S-300, Buk-M2 and Pechora-2M.

    Everything is clear with the supplies, it is not clear just why they are to Venezuela. The same Chavez, constantly threatening his fist in the direction of the United States, got along well with these United States selling them large volumes of Venezuelan oil. Or does someone think that in the event of an armed conflict between the United States and Venezuela, these air defense systems will help Venezuela? After all, the same S300 air defense missile systems were sold in the USA by Russia at the beginning of the 90 years, so the United States knows all the strengths and weaknesses of these systems. It is possible that soon after receiving Russian weapons, the Venezuelans will sell to the States what they still do not know how the Poles and East Germans sold at one time.

    Venezuela is a very beautiful country - Russia first of all needs to actively develop economic ties with this country ... There are places where they will unfold - especially in the field of tourism and mining ...
    It is necessary to build their hotels "close by" near Pind-Stan - as they do in Turkey ... In Venezuela, Russians can and should have a rest - to the envy of all neighbors - puppets of Pind-Osiya ... Moreover, Russian tourists would leave their "green" in a friendly country and not in dubious places like Thailand, Turkey or Egypt ...

    If there was a Russian-Venezuelan economic boom, other neighboring countries (such as Cuba and Nicaragua) would also want to, and there you would see others would catch up ... Then the stripes would turn green with anger and envy !!! :)))
