37
Azerbaijan will start upgrading the MiG-25 combat aircraft in the Arsenal of the Air Force (codenamed to NATO is “Foxbat”).



According to information received by APA from military sources, the program for the modernization of combat aircraft, whose operation is currently suspended, will be implemented at the Azerbaijan Aircraft Repair Plant.

According to experts, on MiG-25 aircraft it is possible to perform any work on their modernization. The inner and outer structures of the aircraft allow this.

It should be noted that the Azerbaijan Aircraft Repair Plant has already implemented a number of projects to modernize the MiG-25 aircraft. The latest project of the plant was the modernization of the Algerian Air Force MiG-25 aircraft.

According to the international centers, currently in the arsenal of the Azerbaijani Air Force there are 10 units MiG-25, 6 units - MiG-25PD and 4 units - MiG-25РБ.

According to UN reports, Azerbaijan last bought 1998 MiG-8 aircraft from Kazakhstan in 25 for the year.

        There is no data on this yet.

        According to experts, any MiG-25 aircraft can be used for any modernization.

        in the Pumping Station, where these MIG-25s are located and where I served, there are excellent personnel who can do this without Jews. By the way, the number is nevertheless indicated, for a long time and everywhere it is, and in the weapons register, there was an air defense regiment. 30 aircraft, not including Iraqi,

              The Azerbaijani ambassador to Russia said that the Azerbaijani authorities could expel all Russians from the country.
              Everything is fine in the statement of the Azerbaijani diplomat. Starting from the parallel between multinational Russia and mono-ethnic Azerbaijan, from the territory of which the Armenians were cleansed, the Russians were driven out and where, to this day, the Talysh national movement is suppressed, and Talysh are forcibly deported to Azerbaijanis and ending with an indication of the possibility of eviction of all Russians from the country on ethnic grounds .

              It should be noted that among those Russian politicians who require the introduction of a visa regime with Azerbaijan, almost no one speaks about the expulsion of Azerbaijanis with Russian citizenship from Russian territory. And, especially, none of these politicians now refers to the official power structures of our country. The official speakers are strongly tolerant.

              The allusions to the possibility of ethnic cleansing by a representative of official Baku make us recall that once a similar ethnic cleansing in this country has already been done. Given the context - that this hint was made about the criminal prosecution of a murderer of Azerbaijani nationality, it cannot be understood otherwise than demanding to be silent in a rag about crimes committed by representatives of this generous sunny country in Russia

    A very worthy aircraft, on account of its only loss of the coalition during the "Desert Storm" in 1991, which the Americans OFFICIALLY recognized: the shooting down of the Iraqi MiG-25PD F / A-18C pilot Michael Specher from the 81st Fighter Bomber Squadron (VFA- 81) aircraft carrier "Saratoga" on the night of January 16-17, 1991.

    Azerbaijan actively used the MiG-25 that it got during the Karabakh war for striking large stationary objects, as well as conducting photo and radio intelligence. Describing the attacks of reconnaissance-strike MiG-25RB, it was mentioned that the attacks were also carried out without the use of complex sighting systems, which often fail, require qualified service and spare parts. Losses amounted to three aircraft: 2 MiG-25РБ and 1 MiG-25П.
    http://www.airwar.ru/history/locwar/xussr/karabah/karabah.html


    The wreckage of the MiG-25 downed in the Kelbajar district
    So, on August 20, 1992, the Strela-2M MANPADS was shot down by a MiG-25PD of the Azerbaijani Air Force, in the cockpit of which was sitting a Ukrainian mercenary, a former pilot of the 82nd IAP from Kiev, Alexander Belichenko. The pilot ejected and was captured. He was then shown to journalists, and the Supreme Court of Armenia sentenced him to death. However, he was soon pardoned and now Belichenko serves as the head of the airport in Stepanakert.

      a Russian contractor was piloting, there would be more aircraft, we had 5 aviation regiments, but on orders from Moscow, they planned to take off at the same time toward Russia, Su-17-Kurdamir, Su-25-Sital-chai, Mig-25RB -Dallar, Su-24-Ganja, Il-76-Ganja and Dallar, training-Salyan. Not to mention the materiel, they especially plundered Ganja and Sitalchay. Here it comes with such difficulty, pouring enormous financial infusions, to rebuild airfields. The only thing what survived is Pumping.

      So, on August 20, 1992, the Strela-2M MANPADS was shot down by a MiG-25PD of the Azerbaijani Air Force, in the cockpit of which was sitting a Ukrainian mercenary, a former pilot of the 82nd IAP from Kiev, Alexander Belichenko. The pilot ejected and was captured. He was then shown to journalists, and the Supreme Court of Armenia sentenced him to death. However, he was soon pardoned and now Belichenko serves as the head of the airport in Stepanakert.

        this is old information, the director of the airport is now completely different, Armenian. and about him, Belichenko is already unknown. And they killed the second pilot, though later he said that he allegedly hanged himself in a cell

    The plane is quite good, and if you get a little strenuous, it can serve quite well. I’ll think they’ll change the electronics, they can install something interesting in addition. One thing is for sure, if you want to make candy out of these 25s, there’s a lot of finance, where there’s room to upgrade, and the main thing is the cadres. and yet, there are enough foreign companies to assist in this.

      Yes, change all avionics and make a cap. engine repair. The glider must be in good condition, because it is mainly made of stainless steel

        eat it mainly from stainless steel
        but all the same, the part has already fallen into disrepair. time takes its toll. when I was serving there in 88-89 I asked the pilots, even then many cars were of the first releases, that is, the beginning of the 70s. As for the engines, I agree. Even then around the plant there were planes from all friendly states, so to speak, mainly Arabs .
        By the way, the glider is not a stainless steel, some kind of dense mixture is strong)) the weakest point is the pilot's cockpit canopy. did not withstand high speeds. They were changed often. We made an airplane from this "glass" with a take-off to Dembel.

      It all depends on the mentality - and we have a good one))). They sold 5 MiG-21s to the Croats "the other day" and promised to repair 7 more units with partial modernization. And all for a paltry $ 13,5 million. And as many as 80 MiG-25 is located near Zaporozhye - they are waiting for a new owner to come for them.
