Ukrainian Air Force Base near Sevastopol moved to the side of the Crimean autonomy

47


The 204 Fighter Air Base of the Air Force of Ukraine, which has 49 aircraft in service, went over to the side of the government of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea (ARC).

"Today, the command of the 204 base in Belbek announced its transfer to the side of the Crimean people," the government spokesman told Interfax. It is about more than 800 military personnel.

At the airfield "Belbek" are 45 fighters MiG-29 and four training aircraft L-39. Of these, only four fighters and one training aircraft are operational.

Recall that during 2 and 3 of March, 5086 troops of the internal troops, the State Border Service and the Armed Forces of Ukraine voluntarily went over to the side of the Crimean people. Following the border outpost of surface ships in Balaclava, the regiment of the Internal Troops stationed in Sevastopol, as well as a separate battalion in Yalta, went over to the side of the Crimean people. Over the past day, members of the anti-aircraft missile regiments in Yevpatoria and Feodosia swore allegiance to the government of the ARC. Also, the command and tactical group "Crimea" in Dergachi moved to the side of the government of the ARC.

The current president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, said at a press conference on February 28 that he did not recognize the illegitimate power in Kiev and intends to continue the “struggle for the future of Ukraine.”

The Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city council of Sevastopol refused to recognize the legitimacy of the new government in Ukraine, and appointed a referendum on the status of autonomy for March 30. The Crimean parliament 27 of February appointed Sergey Aksyonov the prime minister of the peninsula.

Prime Minister of Crimea Sergey Aksyonov appealed to the President of Russia with a request to "assist in ensuring peace and tranquility in the territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea."

The Federation Council at an extraordinary meeting of 1 in March unanimously voted to grant President Vladimir Putin the right to use the armed forces until the socio-political situation in Ukraine was normalized.

Later, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin said that obtaining consent from the Senate to use armed forces abroad does not mean that it is the right president will be immediately implemented.

        Certainly not junk. It's just that aircraft engines can use up their service life, but there are no new ones, and there is nothing to buy from the same Russia. Plus, after a certain number of hours, the aircraft must undergo inspection, routine maintenance and repairs at the aircraft factory. And this again in Russia and again costs money (again, there is no gold reserve), plus the usual (ordinary) breakdowns of equipment such as radio, electrical, instrument (and others) - must be eliminated, but again there are no spare parts and the supplier is again Russia , and "a penny is dumb." Therefore, they are forced to do just that (to put the remaining serviceable equipment on such a number of aircraft) to get out of the situation in order to somehow maintain flight practice ("trouser support") at the flight crew. Plus, the practice of combat funds (launching missiles and dropping bombs) are carried out only at special training grounds. And this is also one of the problems. There, too, specialists are needed, updated equipment, but it’s not a penny for that again. Plus, cheap aviation fuel, which also costs money, and the state is practically bankrupt .And these are only particularly visible components of the reasons for the non-combatability of the aviation of Ukraine. With what they can be congratulated. As the saying goes: "Everything is drunk, pass ... but."

    The transfer of servicemen of the army, navy, border and internal troops to the side of the Crimea is a burp for you, gentlemen Banderlog, for your mockery of the Berkut. And so it had to happen. There are more nominal people.
    And meanwhile The US Department of Defense in connection with the events in Ukraine suspends cooperation with the Russian military, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby told reporters.
    “While the Department of Defense values ​​the cooperation with the Russian military, which we have developed in recent years to increase transparency, understanding and reduce the risk of conflict, in light of recent events in Ukraine, we are suspending military cooperation between the United States and Russia. This includes exercises, bilateral talks, visits to ports, conference scheduling, "said a Pentagon spokesman.

    The news is good, but there isn’t much, the Americans want to freeze the accounts of 2 trillion tanks, if the Russian Federation does not lay down arms under the benders, and the government and our oligarchs seem to have settled. So let’s see Putin a man with iron eggs, or is he a fellow posing as a macho man. These (Americans) torn Libya, Iraq, Yugoslavia into small principalities and they do not care at all, let's see how our oligarchs defend the Russian world, the Russian land watered with the blood of our ancestors from the Bendery demon that demolish the monuments of our fathers and grandfathers

      for Che Guevara
      yesterday there was an article by an American (!!!) journalist that freezing these trillions is not dangerous for the Russian government, since basically these bucks belong to private individuals, that is, the Americans in this case played into the hands of our president, who warned - keep your money at home, in Russia ... So who will feel bad from this freeze is another question.
      In addition, accounts owned by the Russian government will be frozen — it will immediately cease to repay debts. Who won? I think not the Americans ...

      Then the economic war will begin. Russia is a self-sufficient state that produces everything, but Europe, with its dependence on energy carriers, is very unlucky. Yes, and the United States does not seem a little, they have an economic interest in Russia an order of magnitude greater. And this is not counting the possible retaliatory measures of China, which will gladly drop part of US bonds.

    The whole question is whose accounts do they want to freeze. If it’s personal, then it’s not very scary, but if it’s a country, then you need to urgently agree with China on calculating in your currencies, and transfer payments for energy, including with Europe, including, while in the yuan, it will be seen longer.

    Excellent! All Ukrainian troops swore allegiance to Crimea! The line for Odessa, Nikolaev and Kherson. In the Ukrainian media - lies and hysteria, and
    everything is ambiguous in our media, as many are financially controlled
    West. The first message in the Ukrainian media is the invasion of Ukraine. From what
    by agreement with Ukraine, the contingent of the Black Sea Fleet may be increased to
    25 thousand people. There were 11 thousand, 5 thousand were introduced, a total of 16 thousand. Well, and the military in the Crimea, unequivocally - the brilliant move of the Russian Federation. Bandera now will not turn up.

        At the expense of hysteria I read now:
        The West is in shock of prostration! Russia has come up with new units against which NATO has no tactics, no strategy, no weapons whatsoever - “silent troops."

        Silently they come, they silently take over the airports, they don’t talk to anyone, they don’t answer questions, they go around wandering around without automatic horns, back and forth in a circle. What they want - they don’t say, and in general (!), They behave as if there are no adversaries or local natives in their territories of action.

        Most importantly, it is not clear where they will move so silently, to Kiev, Europe, ... And it is not clear who fits in with them, against whom they act, what they want. Fearfully?! Interesting!

        In general, the West is in a panic, NATO is crying, Jews with Tatars are watching with interest ... Putin .... is silent !!!

        The main thing is that the effect of the “silent troops” is completely different and effective than that of the “noisy squad” of Yarosh — self-destructive. And again, it is incomprehensible to anyone. The military doctrine of civilization is changing in front of our eyes - information jabbering clearly loses to the silent onslaught.

    However, such news is encouraging ... good The fact that 45 MiG-29s and 4 L-39s are part of the de facto Crimean Air Force already means its power. But it is upsetting that only 5 out of 49 are combat-ready, that is, only 10% of the total number. For the "official" Ukrainian The Air Force now has only 55 fighters left - 20 Su-27 units and 35 MiG-29 units. A relative balance has been obtained in fighters between Independent and the City of Russian Glory.
