Ukrainian Air Force: interrupted flight

After the unconstitutional seizure of power in the Square air base and hangars went to plunder

Ukrainian Air Force: interrupted flightAgainst the background of the coup in Ukraine, few people paid attention to the fact that the air forces of the actually split country are not just experiencing a rapid decline, but in fact go into oblivion.

Since the collapse of the USSR in 1991, Ukraine has received a solid Soviet legacy: the division of military equipment left the newly formed republic of the CIS quite strong aviation potential. In terms of quantity, the combat aviation of Ukraine in 1992 was second only to the aviation of the USA, Russia and China, being the largest in Europe.

It is also worth noting that a significant part of the modern military airfields of the former USSR was located on the territory of Ukraine, where MiG-29 and Su-27 fighters were stationed, long-range Tu-22, Tu-95 and Tu-160 bombers. It was the Ukrainian airfields that at that time played the primary role in delivering a disarming strike to the NATO forces. The airbases in Mirgorod and Vasilkov, Melitopol and Belaya Tserkov, Priluki and Poltava, Mukachevo and Stryi - this is not a complete list of those who received the new aircraft in the first place. At the Saki airfield in the Crimea there is a complex of NITKA - a ground-based test aircraft simulator for training naval aviation pilots. It is a ground-based complex of ship-borne means of shortened take-off and landing of aircraft.

In 1992, three air armies were transferred to the Ukrainian Air Force (1100 combat aircraft):

  • fighters: two divisions (eight regiments) - 80 MiG-23ML / MLD, 240 MiG-29, 70 Su-27;
  • front-line bombers: two divisions (five regiments) - 150 Su-24M;
  • bombers (long-range aviation): two divisions (three regiments) - 30 Tu-16, 30 Tu-22K, 36 Tu-22М2 / М3;
  • reconnaissance aviation: three regiments - 30 Tu-22Р, 15 MiG-25РБ, 30 Su-17М3 / М4, 12 Su-24МР;
  • Aviation Regiment EW: 35 Yak-28;
  • four aviation centers: 240 MiG-21bis, 60 Su-24М, 550 L-39 Albatross / L-29 Dolphin.


    In addition, armed with about 900 helicopters, including 250 shock Mi-24В / Mi-24П.

    However, with the further deterioration of Ukraine’s financial and economic position, the aviation regiments began to shrink like shagreen leather: from the end of the 90, the Il-78 tankers, MiG-23 fighters, training Tu-XNUMHUBL weapons were decommissioned, or they were cut into scrap Tu -134М22 / М2, Tu-3 and Tu-95 (although some of the carcasses were sold to Russia). The situation with the training of aviation personnel was no better.

    But the most humiliating for the Ukrainian air forces is the signing of an agreement between Ukraine and the US on November 10, 25, on the destruction of long-range aviation units. It became clear to all that NATO did not need a strong, self-sufficient Ukraine. In 1993 – 1996, the country's leadership eliminated 1999 strategic missile carriers (29 Tu-10, 160 Tu-19MS). In addition, in 95 – 2002, in the presence of American “inspectors” at air bases in Poltava, Pryluky and Belaya Tserkov, Tu-2006М22 / 2 were destroyed.

    Air Force of Ukraine in the early 2014, there 80 frontline MiG-29 (a certain amount has been upgraded to MiG-29MU1), 20 interceptor Su-27, 24 Sukhoi Su-24M, 36 Su-25 (14 have upgraded up to the version of Su-25М1), 12 reconnaissance aircraft Su-24МР, 38 training aircraft of the Czech production L-39 "Albatross", seven military transport Il-76МД, five transport workers An-26, one VIP aircraft of An-24 and Tu-Xnumhak. Helicopter units were armed only with Mi-134 / Mi-8, since in 17, the majority of helicopters became part of the ground forces.

    Analyzing the state of the Ukrainian Air Force before the coup, it should be noted that even in 2012, the situation somewhat improved. Thus, the average annual flight time of Ukrainian pilots increased significantly compared with the previous figures and averaged 42 hours per pilot (in 2010, the average annual flight time is only 17 hours). However, the Ukrainian figure was much inferior to other countries: for example, the average annual flight time of a pilot in the Russian Air Force over the same period was 100 – 120 hours, in NATO - 120 – 180 hours. All airplanes and helicopters that were returned to the Air Force underwent overhaul or medium modernization at Ukrainian enterprises (in total, more than 50 machines were returned to the system).

    After the new leadership came to power, the military aviation of Ukraine actually lost its combat capability. The airbases and hangars remained essentially without proper protection, which further complicates the situation due to the fact that aircraft armament began to fall into the hands of frankly Nazi groups.

    The seizure of power in Kiev led to another factor - the split of Ukraine. And this actually led to the formation of military units of the Crimea (before the republic was transferred to Russia), on the one hand, and the “zapadentsy” - on the other. Since the beginning of March, by order of the Chairman of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Andriy Paruby, the process of forming the so-called parallel army and national guard is underway. However, the rank and file of the air force of the former united Ukraine, stationed in the Crimea and in some parts of the south-east of the country, refused to submit to the new leadership.

    Currently, the air base began to experience significant difficulties in obtaining spare parts, fuel and armaments. Thus, the inaction of the former government of Viktor Yanukovych and the outright Russophobia of the current junta have done their work — the aviation of a united Ukraine as such probably no longer exists.

      So, the average annual raid of Ukrainian pilots increased significantly compared to previous indicators and averaged 42 hours per pilot ... (in total, more than 50 aircraft were returned to service).
      I wonder how many pilots flew at all? Maybe one pilot flew? laughing On several serviceable aircraft they could wind up 300 hours! belay

        An interrupted flight is when an air defense of Ukraine brings down a peaceful plane ... crying
        On October 4, 2001 at 13.44, a Tu-154 of Siberia Airlines (tail number 85693), en route from Tel Aviv to Novosibirsk, disappeared from the radar screens over the Black Sea. At the time of the disaster, the Tu-154 was at an altitude of 11,1 thousand meters, and its speed was 850 km / h. The wreckage of the plane fell into the sea 180 km south-west of Adler. The plane was blown up.

              Ukrainians had decent aircraft, one of which inspires respect. More than 900 helicopters are a magnitude. There were chances to preserve this wealth. But the Ukrainian authorities did not seize the chance, so the final is quite natural.

Of course, maintaining strategic aviation is not cheap, but its very presence makes good sense of the Western bullies. So it was quite possible to save and multiply the Ukrainian Air Force. But to please the West, all good was put to pieces.

          The lack of a nationally oriented elite, clan oligarchic wars. The collapse and pulling of the economy. And the oligarchic clans do not particularly need an army (maybe only a police force). Something reminds ... only an even more hypertrophied version than we had recently ... what was the average raid of the year back in 2002?
          They are moving further and further ... to the specific principalities. and we were prepared for this option. Well, if there was a project of the Ural Republic, I’m not talking about the national type of Tatarstan and Chechnya ...
          Now we are observing what could have been with us. You need to learn from the mistakes of others. Will we learn for the future?

            Absolutely, only not specific, purely gentry psychology: What can, then drags .. into your garden.
            In general, they do not see beyond their garden, they are all dragged away. All debauchery goes from top to bottom, nowhere else to go. To plunder, nibble.
            And we have such Serdyuchki, but shakes .. But the Hand of Moscow, even with a delay .. punishes.
            According to Gogol: "You don't take it according to Rank!" - is punished more often.

In the north of Belarus, she will not attack either, and if she does, then Russia will restrain her, and it makes no sense to attack Belarus, because the same Russia is blowing her ears! In the west, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia and Romania they will not attack, because they understand that if they conceal themselves, they will be robbed of Russia and Belarus so that they will not be carried away, and even the EU will not allow them to attack, because Ukraine is sleeping and seeing itself with legs wide apart!

          They will be happy. But not for long, until the Ukrainian army scattered.
          You’d better tell me, in which war-conflicts did the Ukrainian army participate in recent years? At the grasp of the Chechens and rodents, some tricks were fought, and dry closets were taken for amers in Iraq. Let the unarmed Berkut be shot for a military campaign not to count. That's a mustache.
          Whereas the Russian army has two Chechen campaigns, with all the ambiguity of the results, the school is excellent for those who wanted to study. And the second campaign just showed that there were those who wanted it. Plus a war of three eights with an army of technically equal level and training.
          Yes, only one exercise in recent years has been carried out as much as the Ukrainian army for the entire period of independence did not. And what do you think, taking into account additionally our numerical superiority, how long will dill warriors last? I'm not talking about how many of the Ukrainians will shoot at our soldiers in general, everything is very difficult for ukrov, taking into account the Crimean experience.

          But we do not encroach on the territory of Russia.


          Yes, infringe, for God's sake. So that at least the occasion was a real help to the brothers. So that all sorts of podp.ndo.sniki then we are not recorded in the aggressors.

              Here you are very much mistaken. Russia, as the legal successor of the Empire and the USSR, was not the guarantor, but the CREATOR of Ukraine. But you, in the heat of building a Velikoukr nation hitherto unseen in real history, did not want to be an integral and main part of the Russian World. We gathered in Europa, and even in the most bestial Bandera version, well, get it and sign it. Thought it would work? Even after Russia at 08.08.08. She showed, using the example of the same country, which, again, Russia created, that those who do not want to shout like a madman to the heroes, cannot be dragged away by force. Check it out how kindly everything went - we even return the scrap metal to Ukraine, but shake the simple truth on the mustache, forelocks - do not be dashing while it is quiet and stretch your legs over your clothes. Then everything will be fine, like with Butcher. But for some reason I confess that, Upyaki meane in prison for any period of time, all the same this science will not go bad for me ...

But this is a fact, and not a secret one. And in Crimea, no one tells me what language to speak, they don't raise a communal flat and don't cut pensions and social benefits.

          Well, Tamerlane, for some reason I don't really like that ours raged in the comments, as if we had all the issues with corruption and with faith in the government resolved. Yes, and our well-being is all right. We're kind of rich and don't pee past the toilet. We raised ourselves a little and act according to Zhvanetsky: "What do you want to do when you go up? - Spit down!" We were always different in hindsight ... Didn't you think they cut their equipment to please the owners? Or did we not make our Central Bank a branch of the US Federal Reserve? So I must, I think, to moderate my ardor. People are in trouble. As we were in the 90s. People will live and rise, either with us or without us. Ukraine will fall apart - will we rejoice, dance on the shards? After all, people's anger and the Maidan is a response to a corrupt regime, very similar to ours, only exaggerated. The whole question is what saddled this wave of anger prepared Bendera and fascists. They must be treated with appropriate methods. These are US special forces operations and soft power tactics. What have we opposed? How do we save the brotherly people, if we truly believe so? Israel found everyone for the Munich terror and shot them many years later. PMCs of our spill could have dealt with the leaders of these bandits long ago. And it is not for us to tell which way to go further. They themselves have a snout in such fluff that they may not even hear us. We will live in truth, and in abundance, not only Ukrainians will follow us, but the whole world, and for now we cannot offer anything worthwhile ourselves - attempts to drag us into our customs union is just a competition of huge economic entities for markets, for spheres of influence. An attempt to oppose a less efficient economy to a more efficient one in the hope that playing by these rules we will be able to survive and overcome competitors. But playing by these rules we do not become different. Corruption is the result of the operation of an objective law, according to which the initial accumulation of capital takes place, only not on the scale of the state, but personally ... if they want, they may not be caught, or they may not be imprisoned, but everyone around them is doing this ... In short, it's too early for us to turn up our nose! themselves from the shit can not be seen. Although there seem to be signs of awareness among the leadership, again thanks to Ukraine for a lesson for all of us.

        Many of those present here forgot our army of the 90s, forgot Serdyukov with his reforms and closed schools. There is some sort of euphoria and an overestimation of opportunities. The fact that we are cooler than our poor fellow neighbors, that we have come to our senses in recent years, is no reason to ridicule our neighbor. They themselves are not that far and have gone, regarding a potential adversary, God forbid, to catch up by the time it hits, because it will almost certainly hit.

        This is on the one hand. And on the other? Suppose that everything that hit Ukraine would remain normal and even multiply. How would Bandera now jump with 10 Tu-160, 19 Tu-95MS and 1100 units of other planes, and even several hundred new planes that a smart country either built or bought in 23 years of independence?

              And in the second, the brave German guys slaughtered women and children and burned them in barns, hung and acted and filmed all this in a photograph to show them to their wives, children and grandchildren.

Unfortunately, Ukraine has long been the first in power, and now it’s even more.

And so it turns out: there is a state with airplanes - there are no bandits, there is a weak state without airplanes - here they are, gentlemen, right there. Regarding the sales of equipment, they sold it all as best they could. In HVVAURE stood MI-26, flew under its own power in the 90th or 91st.

      Aviation, like the navy, is a highly effective, but at the same time, very vulnerable type of armed forces. All the problems in the state in the first place (underfunding, interruptions in routine maintenance, lack of raids and access to the sea) are reflected in them in terms of a sharp decrease in combat readiness and safety of equipment. Conclusion: a strong state is a strong aviation and navy, but there is no trial.

            That's for sure ! But exactly until the moment when it does not touch the vital interests of neighbors and the Players of the Big Game. Here call your friend, it is not for you to decide how you will play on the “great chessboard.” Since Ukraine lost its chance to become a Player, having quite strong starting positions in 1991 in pursuit of creating a single, great, ancient, until the village unknown nation That would be a clever Nekravchuk and his comrades, would create instead of the Outskirts some kind of Kiev Rus with a central, in terms of geography, city of Europe, Kiev, but with a return, not a split, the center of Orthodoxy to the Kiev Lavra. get what you have and rejoice that a simple and clear fact is not being voiced for the players of the Big Game - Ukraine is bankrupt, both in economic and political sense. The truth about the power of the GDP has already been announced and the fate of the project "Ukraine1991" is being decided with its owners - the USA , not even with the European Union, with it only graters go so that they do not do stupid things with various sanctions, and to ourselves, we are familiar, not in the first.

          And do not be offended. The people here are harsh on the site, the truth cuts the uterus. For 23 years it was possible to find and choose a sane leader, now it would not be so offensive. And they wouldn’t have reached such a life, any normal politician would have said - the future is with Russia, and not with the cheaters of the West.
          I look not only at Russian sites, but also at Ukrainian sites, and this is what I noted - Russians do not have hatred of Ukrainians, only regret and resentment of ingratitude. I do not consider single clinical cases. But on Ukrainian sites - hatred, anger is already burning. One wrote that his grandmother would sell pies poisoned for m. Oskaly on the highway. And how many likes they threw him!
          How did the Kazakhs generally react that Crimea is now Russian, ask?
          Moreover, several regions of the north of Kazakhstan are also dominated by the Russian population.
          - Putin did poorly, but if he didn’t, it would have been even worse - that’s the main opinion, at least in my circle.
          And we, I think, will not have this, Kazakhs do not have Russophobia so crazy. With Natsiks (there are, there are) in our forums we fight, shut up.
          And I want you to understand more quickly - you don’t need anyone in the West, there Bulgarians, Romanians and others do not know what to do.
          We have decided for a long time.

      My brother, after graduating from military school, was sent to serve in Odessa, a young officer and his family rented a house from the locals. Then there was the division of the Soviet Union, taking the oath. My brother refused to take the Ukrainian oath, wrote a report and quit. So, the apartment owners told him that if he leaves for Russia, he will die of starvation, that Ukraine feeds all of Russia, Russia cannot survive without Ukraine. What am I for? And in the USSR there was the most powerful army in the world, and now in Russia a powerful army is much more powerful than our former compatriots, and the standard of living in Russia is higher.

It was in service with the 933rd IAP Air Defense (Dnepropetrovsk), the 146th GIAP Air Defense (Vasilkov) and the 48th OGRAP (Kolomyia)[37][38][39]. Removed from service in 1996. After being removed from service, the aircraft were transported to the Zaporozhye ARZ (“MiGremont”), where factory pilots continued to operate 1 MiG-25PU (c/n 001, s/n 36981) and 1 MiG-25RBT (c/n 73) to maintain flight shape ) until 2003 and 2004 respectively

And how many “accomplices” do he have in the power structures left? Who, in Mother Russia, work “on a rotational basis.” So the GDP “with the whole world” needs help now.

      There were Masters, and the “Gospodars” came...God is their judge!

      "Air force Ukraine" is joke, but not at all not funny.

      If their soldiers are fed once a day, what kind of army are we talking about here?

      I look at this collapse and think with sadness, but very little time will pass and you and I will have to restore all this. In some places, pensions will not be indexed, someone will not get an apartment, wages will not be raised, but the infrastructure, airfields and all equipment in Ukraine will have to be put on combat readiness.

      Let's go for a walk, you bastard! Yulya for president, or parashenka at worst,

      Vote for Darth Vader! Poroshenko is a loser! He doesn't even have a lightsaber! And Vader promised to take everyone on the Death Star.

      "Moreover, the Tu-160 is an offensive weapon" - I will fall off the couch right now - and what is defensive in the sky?


      Ever heard of the term "fighter-interceptor"?

      Let Tymoshenko be put on a broomstick - he will pass for the Air Force...

      I watched an old episode of “Mask Show: Masks at a Secret Facility” - filmed 20 years ago, it was almost a “prophecy”... Especially about conscripts and holes in the fence...

      Yes, there is no Ukraine that everyone knew. The question is whether it will happen at all.

      Thanks to your "attention", we have a ghostly chance (such a small little - but a CHANCE!)

      Why small and ghostly. Here on the site, in addition to the tank game, they also advertise the aviation game. So, you may well make a victory in the air. And if another "space battle" is launched, so in general you can call the entire galaxy in the virtual independent Ukraine. Here you have there just now, Darth Vaderko registered for the presidency - choose and organize the release of the globe of the galaxy of Ukraine. In the meantime, practice flying on foot.

      Well, if they choose Darth Vader, it will not be a “phantom hope”, but a BIG CHANCE! The first decree will be on the construction of the Ukrainian Death Star at the shipyards in Nikolaev. The laser will be carbon pumped. (Donbass coal is pure 100% carbon).
