Media: Russia upgraded Syrian MiG-29 and established control over the country's air force

Russia established new rules of conduct in the area of ​​the Syrian-Turkish border, upgraded the Syrian MiG-29 to MiG-29CMT, and also took control of the SAR Air Force, leads bmpd material published on the Fort Russ blog.

"The upgraded fighters will be used to protect Russian aircraft in Syria, in addition, the Syrian Air Force received a clear order to shoot down Turkish aircraft in case of border violations," writes the author of the publication, citing a source in the Syrian command.

“Back in 1998, the government of Hafez Asad entered into an agreement with Turkey that Syrian airplanes would not come closer to the border than on 15 km. Interestingly, it was signed when, under the threat of an 10000 invasion, Turkish soldiers, Syria was forced to expel Kurdish leader Abdullah Ocalan. This agreement also provided for the non-deployment of Syrian army units near the border, which only border guards and individual officers could patrol, ”a source said.

According to him, “Russia has significantly strengthened the country's air force by upgrading MiG-29 fighters to the MiG-29SMT version with the installation of the Zhuk-M radar and the possibility of using the P-77 air-to-air missiles and KAB-500-E air bombs ". Modernization allegedly passed 9 aircraft.

The interlocutor also said that "Russia has appealed to the Syrian government with a request to patrol the border with Turkey on a permanent basis to ensure the safety of Russian bombers."

[Ami du peuple]

Hafez al-Assad’s government has concluded an agreement with Turkey that Syrian planes will not approach the border closer than 15 km.

Today the situation is the opposite - Turkish planes are not approaching the Syrian border? Shouldn't .. Even with Turkish artillery in the border areas, the issue should be resolved ..

[vlad66]

It has long been necessary to do this, but better late than never.

[Secondly,]

Well, damn it, like Carlson's - it finally worked !!!

[TT62]

"Chicken grain by grain, the whole yard is in shit."

[Talgat]

Iranians also have old 29 Mig like

So they also need to be modernized. until new planes are bought

[cniza]

Even with Turkish artillery in the border areas, the issue is resolved ..

It is necessary to modernize or put in Syria attack aircraft and bombers.

[GSVG 86-88]

most likely she will leave the su-24

[PalSanych]

You're right! And soo 25 will remain in the same place

[vkfriendly]

we ourselves get 6 cars a year, and you also offer to deliver them, but what is asked? Maybe after the war they will leave something.

[Muvka]

In fact, in 2015, 18 Su-34s were delivered. And in any case, the Su-24 is going to be written off by 2020 ...

[abrakadabre]

Transfer the required amount to Syria. After restoration repair of course. And with all existing upgrades.

It is doubtful. Almost all of them were written off - due to the impossibility of extending the resource.

As far as I know, about 150 remains - on which it was still possible to extend the resource.

Some of them are now being driven to the full in Syria! It is possible to renew only if they are not exploited in this way, or only on paper

This is my opinion ...

That's just very likely. Now VKS has 85 Su-34s. With a release of 20 per year, this is another 80 aircraft until 2020. Given an order of at least 150 aircraft - they will fulfill it ...

Yes, it’s really a problematic, but at the same time very complex machine with great capabilities: flying around the terrain, variable wing geometry, the widest range of weapons of the B-P. The same X 59 Gadfly, not every aircraft could boast of the ability to use it.

[Turkestan]

THE PLANE DRIED ABOUT IT AND THE WEAPONS WET

[72jora72]

.... And in any case, the Su-24 is going to be written off by 2020 ...

I am afraid that in connection with the international situation, we will not only not write off anything, but we will also preserve, restore and modernize a lot of things ....

[oldav]

Su-24,25. They will leave everything. Because after such an intensity of use, they will already be of little use for our air force. And the Syrians from 3 will collect 1 and will use it. And do not forget that the latter was released in the 93rd year.

similarly ... only this is more likely not because of old age, but because "it is not insulting for the state" after so many years of humiliation of the country, our entire history, the people who fought not only for their Motherland! I can't calmly watch old films about the war - our grandfathers put so much effort and lives, and the descendants destroyed the country so ineptly ... Because now, like on Victory Day, with tears in their eyes - it is bitter from the lost, but with faith in the future!

I agree with you, but unfortunately a very large part (not all) confuse the concept of MOTHERLAND and place of residence. At the very grandfather, he began in 904, and disappeared in the 41st.

Yes, the old fighters are sentimental. Yeah. But the craft is not forgotten. Hehe. Until the last bullet. Like this. I remember all the time Kiel passed, oh German pilot all the time at the monument to the sailors of the submarine squinted. Che blinked, well, I hinted to him about William Gustlov.

Clear message.

This is a way out, in the sense of a statement and a promise, a way out. In which case, if there is an interception of the F-16 and a downing, it can be said that this is not us, it is the SAR Air Force in the framework of protecting the Syrian airspace.

[donavi49]

It is extremely doubtful, however there are a few but!

Assad still ordered the MiG-29M / M2 new ones before the war. Moreover, they were built, but there was already a ban on supply. Now the head Syrian MiG-29М2 is the flight demonstrator of the RSK MiG-35D! The rest of the groundwork remained either for future orders, or were converted into shipbuilders.

The MiG-29СМТ is a rather voluminous modernization (more than a year), the MiG has a certain backlog, but it has already been bought by the aerospace forces and the planes are going to the army. Visually, they are easily distinguished by their humpiness.

However, it is entirely possible from Kursk that the 9-12 CMT vehicles were transferred as a broken contract, like Ily-76 with the VKS directly to Syria.

A modification of SMT like a hump behind a lantern should be, but in the photo to the article, if these are those planes, it does not.

[donavi49]

Assad ordered the MiG-29M / M2 - what is now moving under the MiG-35 brand. They are the first - new (SMT from old backlogs), the second is much more expensive.

Fighter MiG-29M (tail number "741 blue") together with another two-seater airplane MiG-29M2 (type 9-67) (tail number "747") were the first two machines of the MiG-29M / M2 type (9-61 / 67, they are now designated as MiG-35), built at the end of 2011 by JSC "RSK" MIG "under the 2007 contract of" Rosoboronexport " with Syria for delivery 12 fighters of this type (with option still on 12)... For well-known reasons, in the future the implementation of this contract was suspended, and both of the first already manufactured "Syrian" fighters are currently used by the RSK "MIG" for testing purposes.

[Skifotavr]

Quote: donavi49

Assad ordered the MiG-29M / M2 - what is now moving under the MiG-35 brand.

MiG-35 is a deeply modernized and revised version of the MiG-29M / M2 with a complete replacement of all electronics and even some components and assemblies. From the MiG-29M / M2 it has only a fuselage. Its final appearance is not fully formed due to the lack of orders from its Ministry of Defense, and foreign buyers are invited to determine the configuration depending on the price - and this I think is the main mistake because this approach only works with third world countries - but they have such a fighter and not afford, and not the level of their Air Force. And those who would like to buy such an airplane prefer the single final most sophisticated advertised version, and at the same time have it in service with the country that produces it.

[dyksi]

This year RSK MiG has built 32 aircraft. Eight MiG-29SMTs were assembled on the Falcon for the Russian Aerospace Forces, ten shipyards for the Kuzi, six shipyards for the Vikrant aircraft carrier of the Indian Navy, two MiG-35 prototypes do not count (they seem to be 2016, I might be wrong). It turns out that eight cars are not "attached". Perhaps this is a MiG-29M / M2 for Syria, or Serbia, well, it’s like Swifts can be transplanted to new fighters (there is information on the Internet that the group will consist of a pair of MiGs and a pair of Yak-130s, although of course “Swifts” are MiGs -29, the bird is very fast and sharp).

And for those 16 years there were moments to doubt his affairs? I’m not so familiar with VV, but I can say something about him - if he talks about something specifically, they believe him and fear his promises, and if he does not want or cannot answer some question, he gets off common phrases. Unfortunately, this concerns the economy, but in the political struggle he has no equal, he experiences a real thrill from building multi-paths and his apparent softness is like a tiger’s paw - soft, fluffy. A simple example is the tiger Amur and Timur. Until he got the tiger, he endured it, but afterwards, gently (as it seemed to him) gently patted the goat. Now he is being treated intensively. It would be necessary to give the goat a new name - Erdogan ... There is too much similarity, and the Merkel goat, which the goat is going to present, would somehow fit better

[Belousov]

It all depends on how many aircraft Erdogan throws against Latakia in particular and Syria as a whole. It may happen that the S-400 missiles run out sooner ..

The combat structure of the Air Force has 21 aviation squadrons (ai): eight fighter-bomber, seven fighter air defense, two reconnaissance, four combat training.
The most powerful Turkish Air Force air group - SO in Western Anatolia - combines five aviation and one anti-aircraft missile base. At four airfields of this command, four fighter-bomber ones are deployed (54 F-16C / D and 26 F-4E are in service), four fighter (60 F-16C and 22 F-4E), one reconnaissance (20 RF-4E) and three combat training (77 combat training aircraft, UBS) aviation squadrons, as well as 90 reserve aircraft of various types.

[abrakadabre]

Well, he won’t send all the country's aviation into battle in the same wave of raid. This means that everything that will be at that moment at the airdromes must be destroyed proactively along with the bases themselves. Without waiting for arrival in Syria.
I do not know how realistic this is for the determination of the leadership and the stocks of Caliber and other plop. But in the event of such an invasion, the Turkish Air Force should be brought into a state like the Ukrainian Navy. Which has more admirals than ships (sorry, ships; they did not deserve to be called ships)

Only realistic when using tactical nuclear weapons.

[Muvka]

The total number of aircraft! = The number of combat-ready. Won in Germany, they started a test, so only 42% of the fleet is able to fly :) + except for the S-400 there are Su-35, Su-30 and Su-34 also have the functions of a fighter ...

I think the Turks are not. In this case, he will be under crossfire. In the event of a database start, the grouping of the Southern Military District and KChF I think I will not be idle either. Moreover, the base in Armenia will make itself felt. It is clear that the Syrian group will not survive long databases.

[1774]

Let them throw it. Suppose they decided to launch a massive air strike with at least 100 aircraft involved. First, they need to form a battle order in the air, which usually consists of an air defense breakout group, a target reconnaissance group, an attack group, electronic warfare, a cover fighter group, a suppression group Air defense in the target area, etc. according to the situation and depending on the nature of the target. Even if the planes take off in pairs with a minimum interval, there will be a lot of time, those who take off should wait for the rest in the air in the area of ​​the formation of the power supply, although of course you can build a power supply by catching And now the question is whether the Turkish command has experience in conducting similar air operations, whether the military dispatchers have experience in managing such a number of aircraft in the air, and whether the flight crew has experience in such combat formations. there will be a bunch of flashes in the air on the indicators of our radars and it’s not difficult to unravel the idea as well as to take the necessary measures to disrupt the Turkish Air Force’s mission.

Dear "Igorka357", in "Command & Conque" you can send squadron after squadron to destroy the strong point. And in modern NATO (I am sure in Turetchina too), flights stop after the loss of the first aircraft, simply because the pilots do not want to fly to certain death.
Maybe it's time to remove the tin soldiers under the sofa?

[igorka357]

And you fought with Nata, what would such a bazaar be about their pilots? I’m watching some hat-takers gathered here! Who really needs to remove the soldiers! And in Iraq and Afghanistan and especially Vietnam, they knocked down pilots, but they’ll fly and follow orders They didn’t stop! The Turks were not afraid to bring down a nuclear power bomber, and you think that after 10-20 downed planes they will stop flying, a naive young man!

[Hitrovan07]

Do not confuse flights against the "Papuans" who have only "Kalash".

[Turkestan]

[Alexanast]

In my head, too, the whole question revolves. As far as the courage is enough for the pilots (Turkish) to go into battle, bearing losses, moreover, the losses are serious. It's one thing for an "old man" to sneak up from behind, another to face with the same Su-27, Su-30, not to mention the Su-35 and even under the hood of the S-400.

This country is a member of the Nata, and the Nata will harness stopudovo, otherwise after six months of war of a lonely Turkey with the Russian Federation, there will be no Nata or Turkland! The Russian Federation’s turkland will definitely be split up, and the rest of the members of this Nata will simply run away after understanding .. there’s no such alliance! And if NATO ceases to exist, then Sshakalov’s hegemony will come in kirdyk, Europe will become uncontrollable and will approach rapprochement with the Russian Federation, Americans will never allow it!

In order to calm the Turks, it will be enough to use certain types of electronic warfare, I think there are other "non-lethal" methods, Russia has already shown the possibility of asymmetric responses. And this means we have bright minds, the non-standard approach has always distinguished Russian military thought.

He’s used to the fact that Turkish warplanes are boundless in the skies of Cyprus and Greece, regardless of all the boundaries of airspace, but if something happens, such a pendell will fly ...

But why do the Turks beat with artillery in Syria? As I understand it, they do not expect screwdrivers from the Syrian artillery - most likely, there is no Syrian art there. IMHO, they call upon themselves a VKS airstrike. With subsequent "dances with a tambourine" around the inevitable corpses of Turkish artillerymen. That is, if ours are the last idiots, and will lead to this provocation. But they beat their favorite Turkomans! And nothing, native blood does not interfere?
In general, the closer the SAR army approaches the Turkish border, the more likely it is to get artduel between the Syrians and Turks. I bet on the Syrians. Our advisers (judging by the obvious improvement in the art work) are not in vain eating bread there, and the Syrian intelligence will obviously be better. And if Turkey attacks Syria, then the help of our VKS will be completely legal and crushing. And the straits - well, that straits ... Constantinople, IMHO, the name Istanbul does not fit. And Mount Ararat is NOT on the other side of the border.

MiG-29SMT (Syria, your mother)

But what about the "coalition" - also shoot down? They do not have any permits for flights, all the more so bombing, by the way, sometimes gets from them to the government troops, "by mistake." With Turkey, everything is clear, when it is possible to rake, they write, what high they raised when an unknown MiG drove four F-16s in the border area, the next time they promised to shoot down, but they shot down ours from an ambush

[abrakadabre]

But the coalition must be gently but resolutely squeezed out. If they really want to frolic on ISIS - Iraq is there for that. And this is a very big task. Not only for the videoconferencing, but also for the Foreign Ministry.
And let the VKS offer (so that you can’t refuse) to accompany / cover their sorties

[Alexart]

Let them just rock the boat
we will treat
haloperidol is enough for everyone.

[Nikolay71]

One thing bothers me - 9 aircraft allegedly went through modernization.
It is unclear, did they go through modernization or just ordinary rumors?

[avg-mgn]

they summon an air strike by the Aerospace Forces. With the subsequent "dancing with a tambourine" around the inevitable corpses of Turkish artillerymen

100% hit. In their morgues, refrigerators were packed with corpses in advance.

[Ros 56]

Fun for the Turks begins, and the most interesting thing is they can’t fly into the Syrian sky. They immediately have a cap, or from anti-aircraft gunners, or from pilots. And if Assad gets the Turkish gunners, I think the answer will certainly be. And during the showdown at the UN, our people will attach photos and videos, so they won’t be screwed, And there will be no formal reason for fanning the conflict.

Let the Syrians deal with this issue, MIGI monternizirovali, and the flag in their hands for good luck.

Moreover, even in their own airspace they have the right to shoot down any intruder without talking (you can later say that they warned in all known languages ​​by radar, but did not receive an answer)

[Gormenghast]

Syrian Air Force received clear instructions to shoot down Turkish planes in case of border violation

This is no "an indication"this is the inalienable right of every sovereign country.

[evge-malyshev]

The Syrian Air Force received a clear instruction to shoot down Turkish aircraft in case of violation of the border, "

How will this "clear" directive be followed? Will this provoke a face-to-face meeting between Turkey and Russia? The behavior of the Turks, in my opinion, is aimed at creating this conflict with the support of the West and NATO. Goal: Russia should be isolated from the events in Syria and BV.

[Michael67]

The modernization of the MiG-29 with the control of the SAR Air Force is great news. And the instruction to shoot down Turkish planes in the event of a border violation is also good. The tension is growing. Who is the first to press the "button" does not matter. Then no one will tell the truth, or there will be no one to tell. The satellite must be hung over the area of ​​the alleged events and keep a round-the-clock record of what is happening in all ranges. And in general - restraint for our leaders and diplomats.

[Yugan Oleg]

Passions run high. One bad thing - Syria is heavily worn out in 4 years of war.

[avva2012]

Quote: Yugan Oleg One bad thing - Syria is very exhausted for the 4 years of the war.

Economically? So, economics, there is practically no longer there. And the population, who remained, is already accustomed, rebuilt. How many years have they been fighting in Afghanistan?
And, something of fatigue is not visible. The problem will be, after the victory, what to do with this mass of people who can only fight and know how.

The enemy does not need to be beaten - the enemy needs kill - folk wisdom.

[kartalovkolya]

What can be added to the above, I think only one truth about which the Turks do not seem to know or have forgotten: "... do not wake up smartly while it is quiet ..."! Apparently the time and the complete absence of brains at the Turkish elite and the tips of the "big white lord with a black ass "from Fashington made them so" bold ", but rather" lost "the last contents of their skull! In general, I think the point here is that "... the beaten is itching to ..."! Well, I want to get more ...

[Mikhail Krapivin]

Only there should be not 9 planes, but 90. At least. For the first time.

[Roll]

Malawato aircraft but everything is better than nothing! At the moment, from Erdogan, you can expect any stupidity. With Erdogan coming to power, Turkey began to play imperial ambitions that are actively heating the west.

[Pvi1206]

After the first serious skirmish with Turkey, most likely (by analogy with Ukraine) its own "Minsk" negotiation process will begin. It's one thing to criticize Russia, everyone is ready, but only a madman driven into a pit can dare to fight with Russia in the open. VVP once said that without the creation of military bases in other countries, we will get anyone, anywhere.

[Razvedka_Boem]

I would be an artist .. painted a picture called "Presentiment of War" ..

[Sea Wolf]

The war will be. And we will have to fight not childishly.

[galact]

Most likely, combat pilots Al Ivanov or Al Petrov will appear in Syrian military aviation. It’s one thing for a Turk to bring down a Russian plane, and another thing is a Syrian one. The stink will be an order of magnitude smaller.

And it could be.

[Stilet]

Do we have enough pilots for the "mess"? There should be enough for the Turks. Is NATO enough? If a serious mixing begins, then the possibilities of the alliance should not be discounted. It is better to overestimate the enemy than to underestimate. Compared to the USSR, we have not several thousand aircraft in service, but only 1500-2000. There are not so many trained pilots. although they have been trying to make up for this gap lately. A squadron of 8 aircraft ... Compared to the fraternal aid of the Union, it will not be enough. However, let's think about the good! Clear sky! A million in a million!

[Turkestan]

In general, there are aviation equipment storage bases in Russia. They can assemble aviation equipment for a dozen divisions there. And for conducting military operations in Syria, the Su-17M3 and M4 would be well suited, knowing how to fight in a mountainous desert area.

[DPN]

Of course it was well conceived, if only the fathers-commanders had not failed, like the SU-24. And then a blow in the back will pop up again.

Quote: igorka357

And you fought with Nata, what would such a bazaar be about their pilots? I’m watching some hat-takers gathered here! Who really needs to remove the soldiers! And in Iraq and Afghanistan and especially Vietnam, they knocked down pilots, but they’ll fly and follow orders They didn’t stop! The Turks were not afraid to bring down a nuclear power bomber, and you think that after 10-20 downed planes they will stop flying, a naive young man!

But in Vietnam, and even earlier in Korea there were such cases that they refused to fly after the losses were significant! Here Igor, you are absolutely wrong! The moral factor against money always works better!

[Sultan Babai]

The Syrians have their own scores with the Turks, as far as I remember they have two Syrian helicopters on their account, so the Syrians can shoot down the Turks over their territory, they defend their homeland, and ours did the right thing that our Syrians will cover: 1 ours will be knocked down NATO will immediately start to stink NATO country and no excuses for protection will not work, we are not at home, anyway ... 2. the Syrians mig-29 were used for attacks on ground targets, I think the su-25, su-24 are better suited for this, but the fighter is still a fighter ...

[iouris]

That is why Erdogan shouted "we thought he was Syrian".
And why not yesterday Assad withdraw from the "agreement" with Erdogan and forbid the Turks to fly 30 km to the Syrian state border until the operation is completed?

[i] after so many years of humiliation of the country, our entire history, the people who fought not only for their homeland! I can’t calmly watch old films about the war - our grandfathers put so much strength and lives, and our descendants so ineptly destroyed the country ... Because now it’s like Victory Day with tears in our eyes - it’s bitter from the lost, but with faith in the future!

and there are many of us in the vast looking with the hope that even our Motherland will rise from the ashes

Quote: igorka357

There will be a reaction, and there will be screams for help, and screams on the topic we are an alliance, help .. and the alliance will have to help, otherwise it simply ceases to exist,

You need to know the position in NATO
If a NATO member country is the first to start hostilities, then it cannot count on the organization’s help.
So if the Turkish Armed Forces attack the Russian contingent in Syria first, they are guaranteed to receive an answer from NATO "figure it out yourself"
What happened to the downed SU-24. Turks in the banal sent.
