Well, such big trophies, even taking out the brackets, the IG itself had not had access to the possibility of fire control of the Aleppo Life road since the capture of the missile base in DeZ.


Well, in Damascus, ass again. A great reinforcement of the IS materialized in Yarmurka - they demolished the Jeyshislam in the Yaldy area and went deeper into the Damascus quarter, also expanding into Hajar al-Aswad.

Meanwhile, in Syria

Meanwhile, everyone has internet and TV.
Here about the modernization of Il, and not broadcasting about the successes of the Bormalei.
PS
I remember practiced bombing with IL-76. In terms of area targets in Syria (oil fields, caravans of fuel trucks, camps, concentration areas), given the superiority of electronic warfare equipment and the lack of necessary air defense for daishas, ​​this machine equipped with SVP could work cheaper and more efficiently than the Tu-22m3.
Is such an option provided for modernization?

Militants of the Islamic State terrorist group have established control over most of the Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp, located in the eastern suburbs of Damascus.

Anwar Abd al-Hadi, a spokesman for the Palestine Liberation Organization in Damascus, said the camp was previously controlled by Jabhat al-Nusra and the PLO. Recently, however, many Jabhat al-Nusra militants have sided with IS.

Prior to the outbreak of the civil war in Syria (as of March 2011), 112.000 Palestinians lived in the Yarmouk camp and was considered the largest Palestinian refugee camp.

According to humanitarian organizations, by April 2015, the population of Yarmouk had declined to 18.000. Then there was a massive exodus of the remaining refugees from Yarmouk. But their flight was stopped by IS fighters. There are no new data on the number of residents of the Yarmouk camp as of April 2016.

Good luck to the Ilyushinites and so that the number of landings equals the number of take-offs!

"The service life of the aircraft is extended from 30 to 40 years old"....

Extended - this is of course, good, but the service life cannot continue indefinitely ...

Yesterday they spoke only on this subject ... We started with Ruslanov, but we also hooked the entire TA park ...

We need new airplanes, we really need them ...

Of course they are. But liberals are all talking to us: we are starving, we are dying, there is no Parmesan, etc., the benefits of civilization, no one is threatening us. Are you listening to other Nadezhdins, amazed how their land is?

Flew?
Take off!

[sabakina]

When my father brought me to the cockpit of an IL-76 as a boy, I literally lost the word in terms of the number of instruments ... A beautiful plane, it flies beautifully, beautifully .... yes everything is beautiful!
P.S. Their Hercules is for breakfast only.

Today, we don’t have an engine for aircraft of similar dimensions. The base PD-14, on the basis of which it is planned to create a modification with a thrust of 18 tons, is still unknown how many years will be brought to mind. If you recall the history of the only engine in Russia today: The PS-90, then being certified in 1992, it only became more intelligible in 2006. In the modification of the PS-90A2. So the path to the new Ruslan will be very long and difficult.

I apologize, all of the above concerns "Ruslan". And the Il-76 is a worthy car. I'm glad that it will still serve.

Why compare your finger with horseradish, and generally where did you get this? A reference please. No link, no clav mint !!! Special sofa ...

"What's your scowl, Ilyukha? Tomorrow will take off before dawn ..." Nikolai Anisimov.
Well, he sang well, man. And if without songs, then a good military transport aircraft. Modernization will not harm him unconditionally. Especially new engines are needed. And to bomb ... Of course, if necessary, probably you can. Just like hammering nails with pliers. But this is not a reason to compare the IL-76MD-M with either the Tu-22m3 or other combat aircraft. It has its own tasks.
