New challenges to the strategy of the Russian Aerospace Forces in Syria are “outlined” and require a “game” of advance. What “mechanism” of NATO does Turkey coax in the north of Syria and Iraq?

If we do not pay a naive emphasis on relatively "parallel" and fence off the US position, and NATO on the incident with the manifestation of the Turkish side of the aggression against the Sioux 24M our videoconferencing and pay close and far-sighted focus on a variety of sources with the same Western media, it is clear that in this difficult situation, where the snout of the Turkish leadership is already exactly in the “undisturbed fluff”, both Washington, Brussels and Ankara will try to extract the maximum benefit, and they can try to reach it at all without going to the straight line and a murderous military conflict with the most powerful in the world of the Armed Forces of Russia, and more quirky and cunning methods, of which there are already several.

From now on, all tactical aviation The Russian aerospace forces will be partially armed with air-to-air suspension. Melee missiles R-73, long-range R-27ER (pictured) and more advanced R-77 (RVV-AE) will counter any possible threats from fighters of the Western coalition at ranges up to 110 km. Also, the most complex and missile-hazardous air operations will be assigned to the most modern front-line Su-34 fighter-bombers, which, unlike the Su-24M, can well stand up for themselves both in close and long-range aerial combat. An important technological advantage of the Su-34 is its most powerful airborne radar with PFAR Sh-141 "Predator", which in the air-to-air mode has much greater noise immunity than American radars with a slot antenna array AN / APG-63 and AN / APG -68 (installed on Turkish F-16C and American F-15C at Incirlik airbase), the best range and stability of work on targets with an EPR of 3 m2 (up to 130 km), as well as 2 times greater target channel when using RVV-AE missiles


The main, and probably the most disturbing news in this vein came from the German newspaper Deutsche Wirtschafts Nachrichten. In particular, Hildegard von Hessen am Rhine informs that the CIA is working to provide the so-called “moderate opposition” with anti-aircraft missiles. weapons middle line with an average ceiling (about 10 km). Work is carried out with the most regulars of the terrorist camp of Western Asia and the Middle East - Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Moreover, the author emphasizes the fact that the Syrian anti-government fighters have such weapons of air defense, which has already taken place, and the beginning of its use can only be a matter of time. Earlier we already knew about the presence of the Syrian opposition, and the IG of American Stinger MANPADS and TOW anti-tank systems, which caused the loss of army aviation of government SAR forces and the Mi-8 helicopter of the Russian Federation. In the case of more long-range air defense missile systems, everything is much more serious, because our aviation is in serious danger not only at altitudes of 3-4 km, but also at higher echelons of use. This requires an early response, which should take into account the type of systems being transferred and the intended locations for their deployment.

COORDINATION MEASURES AND COVERAGE OF ACTIONS WHICH ZRK SPONSORS TURKEY? HOW EFFICIENTLY CAN IT BE CONFLICTED?

Until today, the Syrian opposition has not yet received open information on the supply of modern air defense systems from Turkey and Saudi Arabia to the Syrian opposition, but already in the middle of the autumn it was known about the activity of another state, the sponsor of terrorism, Qatar. It is this state, absolutely without a twinge of conscience, that provides direct financial and logistical support to the IG. In addition, back in September, before the start of the air operation of the Russian Aerospace Force of the Russian Federation in Syria, the delegation of the Qatar Ministry of Defense arrived in Ukraine at the arms and weapons exhibition, Weapons and Security-2015, in Kiev, where they signed a contract for the purchase of improved versions of the C-125-2-DMS Pechora-2D ”, which was subsequently planned to be placed at the disposal of the ISIL militants. These materials, including an e-mail message from V. Kurtuts, a Ukrainian adviser on trade and economic issues in Qatar, to V. Babitsky, a high-ranking official of the Polish arms company Level 11, with a request to assist in delivering the complex to Qatar and other contract documents accompanying the sale, were provided by the Ukrainian hacker organization Cyber-Berkut, which in one and a half years of work managed to expose dozens of crimes of the Kiev elite against the people of Donbass, Novorossiya and Ukraine itself.

The real whereabouts of the C-125-2-DMS is unknown, but it’s most likely that the systems have long been delivered to Qatar and can be relocated to the eastern provinces of Syria at any convenient time, since every step of the sale and delivery since signing the contract is coordinated with US intelligence agencies and Pentagon, from where come the further orders.

In order to figure out what degree of threat to the aviation of the Russian space forces can come from the Pechora improved by Ukraine, it is necessary to compare all the combat parameters of these air defense systems with the existing systems of optical-electronic warning and defense of our aircraft.

It is worth noting that since more with the first modification of the S-125 «Neva", put into service in 1961 year, subsequent versions have not changed significantly detection means image, tracking and targeting systems, it has been perfected only their element base and software for battle management. The Russian MUFG “Defense Systems” makes a modification of the Pechora-2М, the main advantage of which is the C-XNUMPPMU-300 element base, which allowed intercepting ultra-small targets with 1м0,02 EPR targets (promising PRLR, KR and low-profile 2 fighters). 5 km. The Belarusian version of the C-28-125TM “Pechora-2TM” is distinguished by a high maximum speed of the targeted 2 km / h (3240 m / s) target, an intercept range of 900 km, and the possibility of simultaneous shelling of two air targets, the other parameters are similar to the Russian modernization. The Ukrainian C-35,4-125D “Pechora-2D” air defense system has similar combat parameters, but the speed of the targeted target (2 m / s) is lower than that of the Russian and Belarusian modifications, the complex is single-channel.

The upper photo shows the combat control point (PBU) UNK-2D (left) and the antenna post with radar tracking and target designation UNV-2D, consisting of the base and antenna head of the HC-500-2D units. The command and control center is equipped with sufficiently modern display equipment, where each automated workplace for the calculation is equipped with two LCD MFIs, which display information about the tactical air situation received both by the radar facilities of the complex and given by radar-DRLO connected with the S-125-2D SAM in a single air defense system. Indicators can also output a TV-image of the target, obtained by a television-optical sight. The complex is significantly improved in comparison with the previous modifications. So from the graph (fig. Below) it can be seen that Pechora-2D is capable of intercepting targets at altitudes from 20 to 21000 meters, which implies the ability to combat cruise missiles in a difficult jamming environment and the ability to intercept all tactical aircraft even on the practical ceiling of it application. If such a complex still fell into the hands of DAISH from Ukraine, our videoconferencing systems find themselves in a situation where any regular departure must be carefully accompanied by a DER / RTR aircraft and photo-intelligence such as IL-20М1. It is known that this machine very successfully began to operate over Syria. In addition to the A-8P camera complex, 87 radio operator operators have the Igla-1 radar (for monitoring ground objects) and the Kvadrat-2 radioactive intelligence station, which operators can use to alert our friendly aviation about the work of the channel Pelera-2D and other systems representing the main threat



But the "Pechora-2D" as well as other versions of SAM, equipped with TV-optical sighting system, which allows to operate in passive mode detection, tracking and firing target, which is the most dangerous factor for the current FSI Russian aviation. Combat operation of an optical-electronic sighting system, in particular target designation for the 5В27 SAM, is not detected by standard Birch-type radiation warning systems, and can only be detected by specialized radio-electronic reconnaissance aircraft of the Tu-214P, Su-24MR type or radioelectronic reconnaissance containers capable of detecting the radio command channel of the 5B27 rocket control, which also applies to the Prran system, which is part of the Khibiny electronic warfare complex. That is, to counter the Pechora-2D air defense system, any link of attack aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Force should either have modern DER and EW equipment, or be escorted by at least one Su-34 aircraft with containers of the Khibiny complex on hangers. It is not for nothing that now Su-34 is used as the main combat unit of the Russian Aerospace Forces in Syria. But the operation of the optical-television system directly depends on the meteorological conditions in the theater of operations, therefore, preference can often be given to the radar control method using the UNV-2D antenna post (an upgraded version of the tracking station and target designation CHP-125), this will greatly simplify the task of detecting and destruction of these complexes using the usual means of suppressing air defense.

In order to ensure the safety of our airborne systems in the air, in addition to the air-to-air missiles of the RVV-MD, P-73 and P-77, the planes should also be equipped with X-58 and X-25MPU anti-radar missiles; or at least one plane attached to the strike. The need to take such measures, in my opinion, is absolutely reasonable and is not aimed at general exacerbation of the situation, because in recent days many curious and alarming facts have appeared.

The transfer to the southern provinces of Turkey of the long-range Patriot PAC-2 air defense missile systems, which had apparently already begun, requires the formation of a special anti-radar squadron of the Russian Aerospace Forces in Syria. The 12 Su-30CM multipurpose fighter jets, along with air combat missiles, can carry at least 24 PRLR X-58 (in the photo). Such a squadron is able to suppress the battery "Patriot" from the line, located outside its range. The missiles are unified with almost all types of Russian tactical fighters and attack aircraft, including the Su-25T / TM. There is also a version of the PLLR X-31P / PD


NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, who, with Philip Breedlove, is talking about NATO’s work in de-escalating the situation after the tragedy with Su-24M, simultaneously blames the Russian videoconferencing, and at the same time declares additional military-technical measures to be taken to strengthen the security of Turkish air space. Strengthening the army of the aggressor country and the sponsor of terrorism continues. NATO commanders, according to Stoltenberg, has already taken a decision agreed with Turkey on the arrival and deployment on Turkish airbases additional American fighters to gain air superiority F-15C, as well as the indefinite number of British combat fighters. In the provinces of Turkey bordering on Syria, the bloc plans to increase the number of batteries of the Patriot long-range air defense system, which creates danger for the flight of aviation of the VCS over the northern parts of Syria, and it is impossible to do without anti-radar missiles here.

The false leadership of Turkey, also telling about the desire to de-escalate and restore communication channels at the level of the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff with the Russian Federation, in the very first days after the deployment of the C-400 in Latakia, redeployed the Koral EW complexes to the south of Turkey, which, in addition to protecting the armed forces of Turkey and American "Patriots" in their territory, can also cover the anti-aircraft missile battalions of IS militants and other opposition forces stationed in the north of Syria.

In turn, it is possible to note the very low efficiency of the Koral complex against our Triumph, since the radiating aperture of the Koral antenna array does not have the ability to irradiate the 92Н6E radar located outside the radio horizon because of its ground-based, and / semi-active homing missiles 9M96E2 (48N6E3) in extremely rare cases will be part of the active radiation zone "Coral" means, which is confirmed by the words of first deputy general director KRET Vla Dima Mikheev that the ground-based Coral is not able to withstand ground-based anti-aircraft missile systems.

But "Koral" can be effective against tactical strategic missiles "air-ground", "ship-to-land" with radar homing when the missiles are used against targets, to cover this complex, so when planning a possible retaliation for Turkish air defense can stop be placed on tactical missiles medium-range-type X 59ME "Ovod-ME" with TVGSN, television-command guidance noise immunity over prior EW land-based systems, since the connection between the carrier rocket and may be supported outside effective review of EW antennas. Not much is known about the number and characteristics of the REP Koral complex in the Turkish army, but the basic methods of its “nulling” are approximately clear.

Let us return to the safety of our aircraft from air-to-air missiles from ICGSN, which include all versions of the AIM-9 Sidewinder. It is reliably known that the Su-24M front-line bomber uses the L-082 Mac-UL heat finder, which is a passive infrared station of the upper hemisphere of an airplane to alert the launch of missiles with passive GOS on a rocket engine torch, but to warn the crew of our Mac bomber “Mac “I had no opportunity, because the blow came from the lower hemisphere, where the sensors of the complex were not installed due to the low effectiveness of detecting missiles against the background of the earth’s surface. For this reason, another, more advanced system immediately comes to mind, which today is used only on prototypes of the multipurpose MiG-35 fighter.

The fighter is equipped with one of the best in stories World Aviation Missile Attack Alert Systems - SOAR. The system is represented by two high-resolution opto-electronic cameras with large viewing angles: the first (VS-OAR) is responsible for the upper hemisphere and installed immediately behind the cockpit lantern on the fuselage gargrote, the second (NS-OAR) is responsible for the lower hemisphere and is installed in a special conformal module under the left engine (on the nacelle). Sensors can detect air-to-air missiles of the AIM-9X type at a distance of 15 - 20 km against the ground, anti-aircraft missiles of the MIM-104 type (“Patriot” air defense missile system) - up to 50 km with precise positioning and possible target indication for interception using their own weapons or missiles "in-in" friendly aircraft. In order to complete the flight safety in hazardous areas TVD each aircraft must be equipped with such a straightforward and compact Soare system. Be in place of the Su-24MIG-35 fighter, and the situation could go a completely different way. In the near future, starting with 2016, the United Aircraft Building Corporation plans to launch mass production of the MiG-35 with a total number of 100 machines, which will soon begin to flow into the Russian videoconferencing system. It is very likely that the MiG-35С will become the main fighter of the Russian Air Force in the European and Middle East theater: the relatively short range, super-maneuverability and the richest information field of the crew of these vehicles, compared with other fighters, predetermines their future area of ​​responsibility precisely in Europe and the Middle East, where a relatively small area of ​​the battlefield includes a huge number of threats from the sea, land and air.

Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, along with their main "guide" - the United States is now doing everything to wrest influence in Syria from the hands of the Russian Federation at the expense of supporting the opposition, as well as the IG. Moreover, the dirtiest work is direct support of the IG (DAISH), given to Turkey, and the West is engaged only in supplying the opposition, but they plan to eliminate the IG afterwards. So over the past week and a half more than 2000 militants trained in Turkey joined the IS, and talks in Washington and Istanbul about closing the Turkish border from IS controlled by the Syrian provinces look like just another fiction. Qatar, under the sensitive US leadership, is creating a layered defense system for the Syrian anti-government forces, and in Libya, DAISh logists are quietly creating new training bases and fortifications, even with professional flight simulators, to practice new terrorist acts recently. And neither England, nor Germany, nor the 6 fleet of the US Navy take any measures against the Libyan center DAISH, but instead cynically “put on the tail” our RCM “Moscow” defending the air base Kmeimim, the destroyer URO DDG-64 “Carney” which in a matter of hours came to the Eastern Mediterranean from neutral waters and closely watches our ship just a few kilometers away.


US destroyer DDG-64 URO went from our Pcr "Moscow" at extremely close range, and continued surveillance of the Black Sea Fleet flagship, while the US Air Force of successful operations against Daishev not able to boast that confirms the purpose of the Americans in the conflict


Is this not a universal global conspiracy of the West against the Russian Federation at the moment when the fight against terrorism should be in the first place?

The actions of the French side are not entirely clear, the air force of which unexpectedly requested the use of Turkish airspace to attack IG, and this is when the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier R91 Charles de Gaulle is located near the Syrian coast, and the combat radius of action of “Rafaley” when flying at high altitudes is quite enough to reach the most distant provinces of Syria, especially since our C-400 operates in the area, “tightly” covering the sky from any unforeseen situations. This is another reason to think that someone very, very unwilling to see Russia, which in just a month ruined the basic structures of Daesh in the SAR, revealed the true intentions of the western side. West's actions today are reminiscent not so much the fight against terrorists as the total supervision of the actions of Russian VKS by all available means, from the intelligence services and the American destroyers to aircraft AWACS E-3G and deployed in Turkey's air defense systems and radar.

SITUATION AND OUTLOOK FOR GROUND theater Syria and zealously INTEREST inferiority (newly adopted), a member of NATO to the deployment of ground forces in the SAR

The active offensive operation of the Syrian government forces is now gaining momentum. The last few days, the UAR ATS with the support of the aviation of the Russian Aerospace Forces, the most trained units of the Iranian Armed Forces, and Hezbollah, have been able to press the IS and Dzhebkhat al-Nusra militants in the central and north-western parts of the Syrian Arab Republic. More recently, the strategically important city of Makhin in the province of Homs was cleaned of its IG Through the Makhin there passes the major transport highway Homs - Damascus, along which previously the IS militants could quickly send reinforcements from the central and eastern parts of Syria towards the provinces of Homs, Damascus and Lattakia. This week, the Syrian army successfully formed a tactical "boiler" in the city of Palmyra, thanks to which DAISH lost several thousand militants killed and captured at once. And in the north-west of the state there is a successful offensive against the groups of Turkomans and Dzhebhat an-Nusra; an important victory in this key tactical direction can be considered a lesson n. The village of Katf Hamidah, which contributed to the acceleration of the pace of blocking the Turkish-Syrian border from supplying terrorists by the Turkish government and volunteers. But the pace of blocking the Turkish-Syrian border is not quite sufficient now, and Syrian government forces have only a few weeks to complete the special operation in the area, as there was unexpected news indicating the development of an urgent plan by the Western coalition to intercept a strategic control initiative from Russia and the Assad army. over northern Syria.

On November 26, immediately after the tragedy with Su-24M, Al-Mayadin TV channel reported on the news that 50 American troops, including officers, crossed the Baynar checkpoint on the Turkish-Syrian border and moved to the city of Ein Al Arab. (Kobani), ostensibly to support the Kurds in the fight against the IG. Here now you are not digging, because, first, Kobani is really on the front line between the troops of the Syrian Kurds and the IG (along the Euphrates River), which is still far from the front on which the Assad army fights. Secondly, Russia is also forced to interact with the Kurds in order to accelerate the defeat of the IG reinforced areas, passing as a chain along the Euphrates. And while it is absolutely unknown what the real goal of the fifty American military in the area is.

This could be an advance employment by the American military of northern Syria to further demonstrate the presence and form a base to strengthen the NATO contingent of other alliance states in Syria when the Syrian army and Kurdish fronts meet after defeating Daesh, which will allow the West to dictate its geopolitical conditions in the Middle East, a kind of win-win option, and maybe taking under the protection of the transport "corridor", through which cheap oil flows from the IG to Turkey.

But the most interesting thing is not even this, but what Ankara in Washington could have promised was that the Turkish military across their own border quietly let the Kurdish “camp” in Syria 50 of the American military into Turkey’s enemy; By the way, not a single military-political Internet resource analyzed this important detail. Apparently, the military-technical defense against the Russian Aerospace Forces for Erdogan, promised by Stoltenberg and Bridlav, came to taste first, especially since we still have to find out many details.

From the combination of the facts it is clear that all classifications in the geostrategic plane is now being made against Russia, with even by the injured France, which strongly wanted to bomb the IG from Turkish territory, bypassing Russia defensive videoconferencing infrastructure, which the French seemed to feel friendly. The European Union is so friendly for us that at the moment of the maximum terrorist threat and the need to consolidate all the network-centric qualities of the European armies, the German Luftwaffe refused to share tactical information about the actions of their percussion Tornado IDS and EF-2000 Typhoon over Syria ... draw conclusions.

The time has come to mention the new henchmen of NATO in the face of such states as Bulgaria.

In early September, Bulgaria has already managed to distinguish itself in a “friendly” attitude towards Russia, closing its airspace to our transport aviation, which delivers humanitarian and military supplies to Syrian Latakia to support the Syrian population and the army in the fight against ISIS. The decision was made at the request of Washington.

The subsequent news was the possible participation of the Bulgarian Armed Forces in the ground operation in the SAR, to which, according to the Minister of Defense of Bulgaria Nikolay Nenchev, the country's army agrees with great pleasure. Apparently, among the camp of the main NATO "Illuminati" (USA, Britain, France and Germany) has long been ripening plan, according to which the ground coalition operation in Syria should be carried out, but not by their armies. "Rake" everything will be the NATO armies of the Third World countries, among which have long been joined by Bulgaria, Turkey - is no exception. It is possible that the arrival of American soldiers in the Syrian Ein-Al-Arab is the "first violin" of the West in the ground operation in the SAR, which will be continued by such minor countries as Bulgaria. Take a look, because the use of such a slave country as Bulgaria in solving NATO’s strategic tasks in the Middle East is beneficial even from a geographical point of view. The distance from the Bulgarian border to the Syrian border through the Bosphorus Bridge and the territory of Turkey is about 1500 km; various military equipment and some material and technical base can be delivered to Syria in just a day - two. Convenient, isn't it? So you ask yourself the question: why is the Bulgarian Minister of Defense so zealous? Further actions by the military leadership of Russia are already going on to pre-empt such a turn of events: the main side of the military operation today was the destruction of militants in parts of Syria bordering on Turkey and sensible ties with the Kurds, from where the Western Front can "wake up", which can later change the military political situation in the republic.

In addition to the fact that the Russian Aerospace Forces intensified the MRAU on the border bases of Dzhebhat an-Nusra, the IG and the Turkomans, Syria and Russia will include in the “game” the Iranian Air Force, which, according to the Kuwaiti edition of Al-Rai, have already allocated for the air operation two squadrons of its multi-role fighters (24 aircraft), among which can be almost any machine, from the MiG-29А and F-14A purchased in Russia and the USA, to the latest developments - the twin-engine HESA "Saeqeh" and the unobtrusive light X-gun fighter of the 5 generation " Qaher 313 "able to withstand the enemy at ultra-low altitudes in a developed air defense system. The Iranian Air Force has long wanted to try out new equipment in combat conditions. Aircraft can be placed on the runway at Tias Airport. The Iranian conflict, which is a full-fledged regional superpower, is preparing a very unpleasant surprise for the US, which, after any aggressive and unacceptable trick of its American allies in the Middle East, can create a whole US Navy in the Indian Ocean and the Persian Gulf, and support for the Yemeni Hosts. from Ansar Allah in the war against the Arab coalition and Al Qaeda, no one has yet forgotten.

THE BEGINNING OF THE POSITIONAL INTERVENTION OF THE TURKISH ARMY TO SYRIA AND IRAQ PRESENTS TWO STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES, BUT ITS CONSEQUENCES VERY FASTLY CAN BE FATAL FOR TURKEY MOST

While the Syrian government forces, with the support of the Russian Aerospace Forces headquarters in the SAR, are preparing a large-scale offensive in the province of Idlib, which is a stronghold of the main pro-Turkish terrorist Djabhat al-Nusra (the Al-Qaida Syrian branch), the general military situation in the Middle East, particulars already in northern Iraq, sharply aggravated due to the unauthorized aggressive actions of the NE of Turkey, which at first (November 26) occupied the tactically important hill Tal-Ziyab in northern Syria, and then the northern parts Iraqi province of Ninewa (5 of December).

In the case of the Syrian Tal-Ziyab, the invasion of armored units and infantrymen was clearly due to the creation of the last border fortified area at the turn of the Turkish border to protect the transport "corridor" through which oil from Syria and Iraq enters Turkey, and also as a possible future bridgehead for a land military operation against the Syrian army under the guise of fighting the Kurdistan. The Turkish military, immediately after occupying the Tal-Ziyab area, began the formation of a stronghold there with the help of bulldozers, and several FNSS Akinci infantry fighting vehicles, Otokar "Cobra" and OTBB were deployed to defend the perimeter.


The armored division of the Turkish army in the fortified area near Tal-Ziyab hill (Syria)


In the case of the Iraqi province of Ninava, we observe a similar militarized “show”, the purpose of which is to support Iraqi Kurds, who are known to be involved in the illegal traffic of petroleum products to Turkey, while the Turks naturally fight more often with the Syrian Kurdistan because they fear this self-proclaimed state in Turkish-Syrian border areas, and in the active oil trade with the Turks, the forces of Kurdish resistance in Syria were not caught. Syrian Kurds are protected by the Turkish intervention, and our task now is to seize the initiative in cooperation and military support of the Kurds, the US and NATO, which will actually and reliably block the Turkish-Syrian border and the Syrian our geopolitical interests. Recently it became known that even some militiamen from Donbass arrive in Syrian Kurdistan, perform the functions of coordinating Kurds with the Syrian army and Russian-speaking PMCs present in the ranks of the SAR army.

Washington has already managed to isolate itself from awareness and information support of the intervention of Turkish troops in the province of Nineveh. And this completely contradicts the concept of the NATO charter on cooperation of the members of the alliance in the event of an escalation of the conflict, in which at least one of them participates, to which Turkey belongs, especially since the Turkish Armed Forces have already begun to receive US military support to protect Russia from the Russian Aerospace Forces. On the contrary, the United States is well aware and is working with Ankara on any subsequent step of the latter. The United States reliably covers and patronizes Turkey’s strategy to control the oil-bearing territories of Iraq and Syria, as it is beneficial both in terms of selling lucrative energy resources to countries in the Asia-Pacific region (Japan, South Korea, the Philippines) and in terms of holding the NATO military areas where the advantage goes to the side of the pro-Russian forces.

Turkey, with its aggressive actions, has already crossed all the permissible edges. Apparently, Erdogan did not have enough words and warnings from the Russian leadership, and the Turkish army in Iraq and Syria is one step away from attacking by the Iraqi Armed Forces, as well as the escalation of a new conflict that could develop into a big regional war, in which the Turks would be very tight.

Despite the fact that the Iraqi territory is now approximately 3000 US military training armed forces of Iraq against terrorists, the Iraqi leadership is quite aware of what is such courage and "cheek" Turkish Armed Forces, unhappy and plans for the transfer of new special units of the US Army in the country and therefore there will definitely not be a “blind eye” to the antics of Turkey. The Iraqi head of security and defense, Hakim al-Zamili, advised the prime minister to use strike aviation against the Turkish army in the north of the country, and how this can end depends only on the prudence of the Americans, who oversee the whole Turkish cuisine.

If the Turkish Armed Forces actually go to the intervention in Iraq and the CAP, even when Western support, it will directly affect both the Syrian and Russian, and Iraq, and even Iran's interests, because the IRGC military has long been fighting on the side of Bashar al-Assad; after that, the current Turkish regime and the largest army in Europe will be doomed. No one will allow the West’s military-political interest in the Middle East to prevail over the activities of the “devouring” DAISH that threaten the world.

The situation in the SAR is now the most complex in the history of military conflicts in the World. The complex structure and hierarchy among the multiple parties to the conflict, including terrorists, most often acting in favor of the Western coalition, forces the Russian AULF to act faster and more deliberately, attracting all possible means to achieve a military-political preponderance in this complex region.

    A very good, well thought-out article, which stands out sharply against the background of a heap of "delusional hurray-analytics" or "buffoonery" scribbles of the barracks "hurray-patriots". The author is a definite plus.

      I do not share the enthusiasm for the article. On the contrary, it is, to put it mildly, not very competent and somewhat biased in the spirit of patriotism.

      Not having the strength and desire to disassemble all the strains and inaccuracies, since there are just a lot of them I will give a few comments on one phrase.

      R-73 melee missiles, R-27ER long-range missiles (pictured) and more advanced R-77s (RVV-AE) will counter any possible threats from fighters of the Western coalition at ranges up to 110 km. Also, the most complex and missile-hazardous air operations will be assigned to the most modern front-line Su-34 fighter-bombers, which, unlike the Su-24M, can well stand up for themselves in both close and long-range aerial combat. An important technological advantage of the Su-34 is its most powerful airborne radar with PFAR Sh-141 "Predator", which in the air-to-air mode has much greater noise immunity than American radars with a slot antenna array AN / APG-63 and AN / APG -68 (installed on Turkish F-16C and American F-15C at Incirlik airbase), the best range and stability of work on targets with an EPR of 3 m2 (up to 130 km), as well as 2 times greater target channel when using RVV-AE missiles


      First of all, it’s not clear with what fright the missiles indicated in it became “long-range” missiles?
      It is not clear why this RVV-AE with “allows you to withstand at ranges up to 110 km” if its launch range is in no way more than 80 km? The author did not confuse it with a completely different missile that they are only going to put into service?

      And why did the author forget to mention the AIM-120C-7 and AIM-120D missiles available to Turkey and the forces opposing us.
      Is it because these missiles are superior to all the missiles available in the arsenal of our army and all that can come in the near future? Or does the author just plainly not know anything?

      Also, the phrase “Su-34’s technological advantage is considered to be its most powerful airborne radar with PFAR Sh-141“ Predator ”” is completely incomprehensible. Not to mention incorrect terminology, it is not clear who is considered and before whom?
      Which OBS agency informed the author that the range and stability of work on targets with an RCS of 3 m2 is up to 130 km? This is generally not a correct formulation, since target detection is a probabilistic process. The real range for such targets with a detection probability of 0,8 is almost one and a half times less.

      And how is it possible to row completely different radars AN / APG-63 and AN / APG-68 under one comb? Or even the APG-68 of different versions?
      For information, I will say that AN / APG-68 (V) 9 which is just equipped with Turkish F-16 has a detection range of 300km. In a real jamming environment, targets with an EPR of 3m2 with a probability of not less than 0,8 have a range of at least 120-140 km. In all other respects, it also surpasses the chanted Sh-141 "Predator". Sh-141 "Predator" was a good product for its time, but time has passed.

      So those who know how to count and not just read and write AN / APG-68 (V) 9 are considered to be more likely an analogue of our most modern Irbis radar mounted on the Su-35 and by no means inferior to the Sh-141 Predator. Unless, of course, judged by the real characteristics in a real situation.

        Abrekkos, do not rush with incompetent comments, you at least read the literature on radar in your free time: the APG-68 (V) 9 airborne radar, although it has a synthetic aperture mode, does not have high energy parameters, and therefore the range of its operation on the target type "fighter generation 4+" (EPR approximately 1,5 m2) is only 80 - 85 km. And the range of 300 km is the instrumental range for large targets of the "bomber" type. And the "Predator" is a much more advanced radar system, with a higher transmitter power and an AR aperture area. With regard to the offer:
        "The R-73 melee missiles, the R-27ER long-range missiles (pictured) and the more advanced R-77 (RVV-AE) missiles will make it possible to withstand any possible threats from Western coalition fighters at ranges of up to 110 km." Is it really not clear that 110 km is the range of the R-27ER missile, and the R-77 in the PPS (with) stratospheric launch is also pulled up to a hundred. And as for what may appear in the near future, it's RVV-BD or MiG-31BM missiles with R-37 missiles, and you can immediately write off AIM-120D (C-7/8).

        Well, NATO pulled itself up, and as the hat-tellers shouted at the beginning, NATO does not support Turkey, the question is already about exclusion of that from the bloc .. Yeah, right now! As I said earlier, there is a regrouping of forces and means according to the changed situation, but in the beginning it was possible to frown and eyebrows (until the necessary forces and means have been deployed) giving censure, but in fact at that time they opened champagne just like they opened it when reported the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor .. All the traffic went! And in the right way! there was a risk that the Russians would not adequately react and erase the base (with which the F-16 took off) with a missile with a nuclear ballistic missile, but wow! It turned out .. Again, as the analysts predicted, they turned their eyes, puffed out their cheeks, closed their tomatoes (they were laughing at it in the Pentagon), threw a few planes, dragged the air defense division and everything .. Tell me how all these actions have shaken the determination of the bourgeois to continue your dirty work? They did not suffer any losses, under this bench they sharply increase their military group, quietly glancing around our limited contingent with a quiet glanders, and driving us into an unprofitable position with their brazen but effective actions, putting us before the fact that we must answer but is VERY disadvantageous! What are we going to do when we shot down a plane that we’ve shot down (if we don’t shoot a couple of ours) they will raise a question about an attack on a NATO member, there is no doubt about PR support (everyone has long been ready to wait for the go-ahead), in response they will fire at our base something heavy, maybe a boat will be repaid, will it suffice for us to answer after that HOW? Or will we continue to resent and puff out our cheeks? We will only make half measures worse by provoking our opponents, they outperform us tenfold in capabilities in this region, and in order to at least somehow level the chances, the group must be increased by an order of magnitude. but we won’t be allowed to do this! And they will do this in completely different ways, for example, today's fall in oil prices is one of them ..

    From the very beginning, it was clear that the operation against Daesh (then ISIS) would eventually lead to a direct clash with Turkey, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, then incrementally: NATO - the United States. In the case of the use of DAISH and the "opposition" of the modernized Soviet air defense systems S-125, one can state the failure of foreign policy support for the actions of the Aerospace Forces in Syria. "Successful" arms trade with the Gulf countries leads to the fact that our troops and the troops of our natural allies will fight against an enemy equipped with the latest Russian and modernized Soviet weapons. Or have technologies been developed to neutralize these weapons?

        The answer, in fact, has already been received. As you can see, the war did not start. Unfortunately, the current situation in Russia is such that there is no need to untie the Third World with it.

          Firstly, the pretext is not 100% false: the Su-24 still slightly touched the territory of Turkey. This, albeit with difficulty, can be seen even in the pictures that the Defense Ministry uploaded. It is not clear why it was so close to fly up to the Turkish border. But it is, the lyrics.

          Secondly, you can’t use SAMs imperceptibly: airplanes must detect radar irradiation, and there the EW facilities and all kinds of anti-aircraft maneuvers come into play.

    Perhaps, but unlikely.
    First, they planned this attack, and if there was an order for it, then it would have happened.

    Secondly, the F-16 would immediately perform the maneuver and go deep into the territory, in the conditions of the mountains, it would easily fall off the Su-30 target designator. It could have been destroyed, but already quite deep in the territory.

    In addition, our pilot himself would not dare to immediately destroy an aircraft located in the territory of another state. During this time, the F-16 would have managed to come off far and at this distance would be more dangerous for the Su-30SM than the Su-30SM for it. Nobody canceled ground defense too.
    An attempt to pursue could well end in the fall of our aircraft in Turkey. Wasn't that what they wanted?

    In addition, the Urks probably patrolled not 1-2 planes but 6-10. Escort to engage in battle with this ratio is obviously not profitable. You don’t think that 2-24 Su-8s should be sent to escort 10 Su-30s?

    In short, an attacker from behind and from his territory always has advantages.

    Firstly, not "cutting the answer" in full (as the shitcrats want it) Putin refutes Western myths about aggression, the belligerent nature of Russia's actions, and at the same time, the Turks + other NATO members, the US members once again show their "peacefulness" to the world arena and in fact powerlessness in front of Russia (provocations do not count for meanness and provocations are the destiny of the weak)
    Secondly, an open armed confrontation against NATO (and in fact the United States, too) is extremely disadvantageous for Russia. Yes, in recent years, Russia's defense power has been building up at an accelerated pace (hence the discontent and incessant hysteria of the West and all kinds of provocations), but the work to modernize and strengthen the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation has not yet been completed - you need to buy time and at the same time push / act politically / diplomatically, which the Russian Federation does and is bearing fruit - Russia has begun to be reckoned with and you can’t argue with that.
    Here by the way are good sayings of Sun Tzu, just on the topic:
    - "The one who knows when he can fight, and when he cannot, will be the winner."
    - "War is a way of deception. Therefore, even if you are capable, show the enemy your inability. When you must bring your forces into battle, pretend to be inactive. When the target is close, show it is far away; when it is really far away, create the impression, that she is close .. "
    - "The rule of war is not to rely on the fact that the enemy will not come, but to rely on what I can meet him with; not to rely on the fact that he will not attack, but to rely on what I will do attacking himself is impossible for him. "
    - "Power is the ability to apply tactics in accordance with the benefits."

If, under all these conditions, the pilot, as you say, took aim, we would immediately receive a diplomatic protest. And what would that pilot be? Such decisions are not for majors or even generals. Politicians give permission for this.
    And irradiation would hardly force to cancel the task.

    Secondly, if our aviation is so helpless in front of the Turks, why was it so close to them at all? At 10-15 km from the Turkish border, no one would attack "dryers", because the effect is not at all the same.


    Well, she’s not so helpless. Just the alignment in this place at this time is not ours.
    But not approaching the border is not always easy, especially in mountainous areas, with that border configuration, with a certain wind situation, etc. For this, we would have to create a large flightless zone where the militants felt safe. This is what Turkey sought with protests and drones on earth. Which in the end both sides did.
    But obviously no one decided to make such a decision out of fear.

    Although the Turks within a month made all possible warnings in the military language. Until the demonstration of a downed drone. And the question you posed could not but be on the agenda when planning operations. But this is again a question for politicians. The military just posed this question. To give up and give up the zone under the control of Turkey or to ignore warnings operating throughout Syria but with risk. No one below the Minister of Defense could solve this issue. This is politics.
    The military immediately told us that a war in the air with neighbors was not needed. We won’t win it. They were told approx. Based on this, all military planning was conducted.

      In your words, the key word is "enemy" but at that time Turkey was not our enemy.

      Just don’t play naive Chukchi boys. "Sushki" searched for and bombed fuel trucks that were going to Turkey. What were we counting on? Like, the Turks are like: "Oh, where do our smuggled oil tanks come from the terrorists? We must ask our Russian friends, they will suddenly help to find".

      Then, this incident with a "violation" (or really violation) of the Turkish border was not the first, and the Turks in early October stated in plain text that they were ready to use force if they noticed anyone in their airspace again.

      In the end, one must understand that in big politics there is no friendship, there are only interests. And it will be foolish and naive to think that at our expense the Turks will love us for the new NPP until the end of their days. Nothing like this.

First, Turkey had to be persuaded (persuaded, forced) to cooperate, guaranteed (publicly and loudly) the safety of flights of Russian aviation, and only then fly under the nose of the Turkish air defense forces. In the end, Messrs. Lavrov, Churkin and others like them do not just get their salary. But no, they hoped for a chance: they say that the Turks are embroiled, they will not shoot.

    Abrekkos, ... Have you ever read the literature on radar ...
    Radar APG-68 (V) 9 ... the range of its operation on a target of the "generation 4+ fighter" type (EPR approximately 1,5 m2) is 80 - 85 km.
    And the "Predator" is a much more advanced radar system, with a higher transmitter power and an AR aperture area. With regard to the offer:
    "Is it really not clear that 110 km is the range of the R-27ER missile, and the R-77 in PPS (with) a stratospheric launch is also pulling up to a hundred.
    ... RVV-BD or MiG-31BM missiles with R-37 missiles, and you can immediately write off AIM-120D (C-7/8).


    Imagine I have radar and what I have been doing for 20 years.

    Did you read what I wrote and what did you write? Read it again and realize that you gave the APG-68 (V) 9 radar a much more flattering characteristic than me. If you, of course, have been engaged in real radar for at least 5 minutes and not studying the statues on the Internet, then you will understand what I mean.

    About "Predator" you actually did not say anything except the same newspaper stamp as about APG-68 (V) 9. I will not give the exact characteristics of the "Predator". apparently, unlike you, it will take me 5 to 10 years.
    I will only say what is widely known and what has blocked the path of this radar and its direct descendants to new fighters. Unfortunately, the Achilles' heel of this device is noise immunity, and in a real jamming environment (especially if there is at least some electronic warfare), it may never see a target, dear to your heart, with an EPR of 1,5m2. It is not very suitable for air combat in a real modern war, but it is not so important for a bomber, which the Su-34 is basically. The Predator performs its functions on it, but due to its problems, they did not put it anywhere else.

    The characteristics of the missiles given by you refer not to the stratospheric launch of the RVV-AE (it has a range of 80-90 km downwind in the stratosphere even in the stratosphere) but to some modifications of missiles with a simplified homing head and an increased fuel supply (R-27EP, R-27ER), which can used in exotic cases but not by fighters. Although the R-27ER never flew at 100 km its range of about 90. As far as I know, they are not in service with the Russian Federation, and if they are, they are not used in the exercises (since there are no service and technical requests for them). This is called "are in service". In the USSR, they were but not very many. have an exotic niche.

    About RVV-DB, you hit the sky with your finger. it is not intended to fight modern fighters at all. The probability of defeating small and highly maneuverable targets like a fighter is low. She, like the MiG-31, is never a tool for gaining air supremacy. So this is not a competitor to AIM-120. This rocket was made for a completely different one. Comparing its range with the AIM-120D is the same as comparing the loading capacity of a bus and a Ferrari.

    The competitor AIM-120 was made in the form of RVV-SD (just a range of ~ 110km), but there are still many problems with it. The military initially after the tests refused to buy it and put in a new research project, but then changed their minds. In the spring, deliveries will begin after some modifications. It will be, with some reservations, an analog of AIM-120C-6. So the rocket comparable AIM-120D is only in the plans so far. Even TTZ and OCD are not on it.

    So all your arguments about the issue of gaining dominance in the air, which I discuss, are irrelevant.

    This is my humble opinion. You have the right to have and express your own, but Dear You may not even try to "teach me a profession."

    It hurts the place is not suitable.

They will close the Bosphorus (already the first swallows have arrived to this recall the challenge of the Russian ambassador to Turkey), and then how to fight? That's just it ...

    Actually, this is what you need to tell politicians. But for some reason you addressed the claim to the military.
    It is clear that the Urks have never been friends to us or to anyone. It is clear that in these conditions it is necessary to expect a trick from them.
    It is clear that Urki warned us for a month and a half.
    But the military was given a different attitude. They are friends to us, our Syria, deep. scandals we settled, to act throughout the territory.

    And I have one question: "Why did our military leadership send the Su 24 on a mission without cover?" The Turks had been preparing a provocation for several days, and our technical reconnaissance equipment saw the activity of the Turks in the area of ​​the VKS operations. Arguments like the type did not expect a blow in the back, I think they are not appropriate and criminal. There are such concepts as: comprehensive support of the battle, assessment of the enemy, etc. Why was all this not taken into account ??? They just took our plane and presented it to the Turks on a silver platter. I hope at least the cruiser MOSCOW guessed to cover from the sea?

    That's right, we have been listening from everywhere for the second week, and at all levels about the "stab in the back", although only the crew of the downed Su-24 received it directly, but those who are higher (we will not point fingers) really got a "spit" in face! What prevented from the very beginning, when the air group was created, to calculate the forces and means necessary both for delivering bomb-assault strikes and for covering them? And what did we really have there? Four Su-30, and long-range air defense systems were out of the question. And who decided that Turkey is our friend, ally and brother ?! We fought our entire history with her, for them our Crimea, and Izmail (in the past also ours) is one non-healing wound, which is transmitted figuratively with mother's milk, at the genetic level, so to speak! And here you are, just an idyll. And who will be responsible for the death of our guys?

    I note that all the same, the R-77 that supplied India and RVV-SD are the essence of completely different products. And the R-77 delivered by India to 110km does not pull. You probably know this too. And what beguiled RVV-SD and RVV-AE is probably yes.

    An important technological advantage of the Su-34 is its most powerful airborne radar with PFAR Sh-141 "Predator", which in the air-to-air mode has much greater noise immunity than American radars with a slot antenna array AN / APG-63 and AN / APG -68 (installed on Turkish F-16C and American F-15C at Incirlik airbase), the best range and stability of work on targets with an EPR of 3 m2 (up to 130 km), as well as 2 times greater target channel when using RVV-AE missiles


    This is not my quote, this is a quote from the article. I just criticized her. Including a "bunch" drinks

    All in a bunch! AN / APG-63 (v) 3 radar It’s on the modernized F-15. The USA only has it. Moreover, this AFAR radar and compare with it in range, noise immunity and channelity is just ridiculous. Yes, and these radars are only 200 pcs per Needles.

    And I mean the same thing.
    Especially about the channel APG-68 (V) 9 and Sh-141 is ridiculous. drinks

    Actually, this is an old radar with an average detection of 60 km depending on the modification and operating mode (upper or lower hemisphere, after or after), and the detection data that you provide corresponds to the characteristics of the new


    Yes, the radar is old but what are you saying? Detecting what at a distance of 60 km? With what probability? A bomber with a probability of 0,5 he discovers 300 km. Then you just said nothing. What for?

    I gave specific characteristics that take place in this version of the APG-68 (V) 9. You probably meant older versions of the APG-68, I don’t remember their characteristics because when I studied they were no longer relevant for us.

    Quote: Abrekkos
    So those who know how to count and not just read and write AN / APG-68 (V) 9 is considered more like an analogue of our most advanced Irbis radar mounted on the Su-35
    Well, everything is clear here. The person simply does not understand. What Irbis PFAR is more likely to be compared with AN / APG-63, we will assume. What is confused with the indices.


    I understand the differences between different radar designs for 30 years, and even more than that. wink Also in junior classes I was taught that it is important not to have a headlamp, AFAR, etc. But it is important what real characteristics are achieved with the product. It is possible to make AFAR worse than PFAR and further in all combinations. By the way, with AFAR we have just big problems.
    But I talked about the real combat properties achieved in a particular product, how they are achieved is not important. Often, a debugged product made using old technology is superior to innovative development. According to its real characteristics, AN / APG-68 (V) 9 is close to Irbis. Maybe I did not correctly express my thought.
    The same thing that they are different inside is probably even read on Wikipedia.
    But we are not discussing the development of radars here, but the possibilities of combat use. So on them they are just close despite the difference in age and internal structure.

    I will not be joking here about your proposal to compare the Irbis with the APG-63. If you know something on this topic, then you probably yourself understand what I could write. I will only remind you about your turnover "All in a heap" from your last post. wink
    Although maybe you just joked so funny? laughing Yes, and I do not want to lose time out of the blue. It is clear what you meant.

    Quote: CERHJ
    In Turkey, there have never been AMRAAMS with the D index. The USA, Oman, Saudi Arabia have them. They have AFAR radars mainly. It makes no sense to use an expensive missile at a range that cannot be detected by conventional radars.


    Read what I wrote "at the disposal of Turkey and the forces opposing us." NATO AIM-120D has it and it opposes us. It is compatible with AN / APG-68 (V) 9. Transferring it to Turkey is not a question at all. They just have to if asked.
    The capabilities of AN / APG-68 (V) 9 (when confronted with the Su-30, 34 ...) for the AIM-120D are quite enough.

    Although, in principle, you are right. Of course, for confrontation with our aircraft, the Turks have quite enough AIM-120C-7 they have. About AIM-120D I went too far.

    Well, I don’t know that. I was there only when it all started and on purely technical issues. Nobody dedicated me to politics. And the Syrian company is a purely geopolitical topic.

    I personally think that when the commander in chief, someone advised him to see. Conducted research comprehensively studied, evaluated, weighed and substantiated. And the commander-in-chief "on the basis" made a decision as suggested, or vice versa. All decisions at the very top are very much prepared. The topic on Syria has been discussed for a long time - everything up to on-site research, etc. studied in great detail, at least from a technical point of view, and the military does not spend money in vain - only by order.
