Beautiful ... If only the sailor shooting the cable towards the refueling station (it is written opposite under the photo - towards the aircraft carrier) wouldn’t get tangled up with charges and wouldn’t shy away at such a good capacity with a grenade. Well, his surname is Brandt, the situation obliges him to cope with the fire if something happens ...
Thanks to the Professor for the review.

[Professor]

Thanks, corrected.
The trigger for the publication for me was photo number 16 "Lance Corporal of the US Marine Corps Richard Rodrin is watching through the window ..." Having carefully examined the details in the photo, I discovered information that was not known to himself before the village. As far as I know, there is no such thing in Rosssey.

[inkass_98]

Quote: professor

As far as I know in Russia this is not.

We still have a lot of things that are not being done or are being done wrong. For example, in the photo a fighter takes a fuel sample and then dumps it into a canister (which is absolutely true, the fight against fire hazard and the environment). As a young man, while working at an airport in Sochi, I observed the following picture: a technician takes a fuel sample from an airplane tank, assesses the state of sludge by eye, and then safely splashes it onto the concrete. It especially delivered in the summer, when the soles of the concrete stuck ...
We will try to do everything in a normal way, and not jump on a rake.

The technician takes a fuel sample from the aircraft’s tank, assesses the state of sludge by eye, and then safely splashes it onto the concrete.

... and he was not the first to spill fuel on the concrete that leaked to the joints. And when a high commission arrived, which they decided to demonstrate the work of firefighters and, ironically, they set fire to a pair of tires in this place, they put out the tires very quickly and efficiently, but the concrete itself was put out for a long time and tediously.

I'm not saying that he was the only one, they all did that. And Nenya’s first thought was - what if he threw a goby there? Kerosene itself will not catch fire, but some rag may catch fire, and from it kerosene will safely burn. And greetings to the passenger airport: at the nearby parking lots, the centralized underground fueling system would have burst with all my heart, half Adler would have been bold. And then it would not be necessary to redeem the land for Olympic facilities ...

proff, you all knew for a long time !!!

[cosmos111]

more that I did not see proff, the Russian Air Force ...

most aircraft in the usa, they are equipped with a system that includes a telescopic tube with an aerodynamic tip))) (flying boom))))
there is a fuel receiver funnel on a refueling aircraft ...
with such a system, during refueling, an aircraft receiving fuel must accurately withstand the direction to the axis of the telescopic pipe, which can only move up and down ....
contact occurs when the tip of the telescopic pipe enters the funnel of the fuel receiver, and then into the hole where it is captured by a special device ...
The refueling systems of some KC-135 tanker aircraft were upgraded: a flexible cone hose was attached to the telescopic pipe, which made it possible to use them also for servicing Canadian and English aircraft with receiving rods .....

And what about the "passengers? And the boards?"

cylinders with oxygen, air, etc. etc, plus 4 huge engines, in short we only have lumin

we have rough and sealed plasticine hatches for the night, and on AN-12 the eyes are screwed on the doors to hang the barn lock,

they have a shiny lacquer coating, and they do not mow the grass in the parking lots, they do not tear out the seams,

and when a fighter (ours) arrives at them with an obato on TZuha, he is all in fuel oil and in soldier's slippers, pulls a hose and asks where to put it to you, they have horror in their eyes and they understand this people cannot be defeated

(personal observation, maybe when I make out a bike)

[Mhpv]

as I understand it, the sailor doesn’t shoot the cable, but the so-called tench, with the help of which the hoses are pulled up later. We did it manually, you stand, untwist this tench with a load at the end and throw each managed to get in different ways.

[Mhpv]

Do not be too lazy to compare the shooting sailor with this photo and carefully look at what they are doing and then minus

[Serg65]

MCHPV Vladimir, do not be offended by the minuses, I understand perfectly well that in the naval units of the PV bunkering on the go could occur only at the Pacific Fleet, but in the Navy there is a line thrower for this purpose and it has been in service since the 70 of the last century.

[Mhpv]

You won’t believe it, but we didn’t have a line thrower and we went through the casting, but on the go we didn’t throw a line, but the point of the shooter is not exactly shooting the cable, as described, but just giving the line itself my photo is not clear, and you have minuses for what you threw manually , I brought this as an example so that it would be clear what the shooter is doing. Think yourself who will allow you to shoot the cable from a neighboring ship with a weapon?

[Serg65]

Vladimir, about the cable, this is a clear slip of the "Professor", you should not judge him strongly in this, not many people know all the intricacies of the sea service, but I did not give you a minus. By the way, from my own experience I know that lightness will surely reach the wall if you aim at the midshipman at the crab on the cap (of course, in the presence of the midshipman on the wall).

I know.
However, even during its heyday in the 80's, the Soviet Navy did not have the capabilities of the US Navy (in its surface part).

For information ... the KCHF was the base fleet for the 5th OPSK, in this regard, the 16th and 9th brigades of the UVF were based in Sevastopol, the 16th brigade was profiled mainly for raid support, but the 9th brigade was times and was engaged in the logistic service of warships in Mediterranean, Central Atlantic. The beauty "Berezina" pr.1833, "Chilikin", "Manych", "Kuban", "Sventa", "Turgai", "Bubnov", "Desna", "Iman" and these are not boats, but tankers and integrated support vessels , and please note that this is the Black Sea Fleet. which was much smaller than the North and Pacific! And you say "I know" !!!

[Bersaglieri]

Wonderful.
However, the US 5th Fleet, which opposed the 6th OE, had more support vessels (both in terms of total displacement and in terms of specific indicators - "per combat unit")

In its composition and capabilities, the Soviet Navy was a powerful fleet, but the second.

Here in the strategic component was parity in the 80s (and in terms of strike capabilities "nuclear submarines against surface ships" - a clear advantage for the USSR Navy)
