Rare footage of a meeting over the Barents Sea between a Russian Il-38 anti-submarine aircraft and a Norwegian P-3C Orion reconnaissance patrol aircraft. The planes flew nearby for some time, after which the P-3C Orion went to the side.
Russian Tu-95MS strategic missile carriers and Chinese Xian H-6K bombers conducted a joint patrol over the Chukchi and Bering Seas, as well as over the northern part of the Pacific Ocean. During the flight, Russian and Chinese crews in a new area of joint operations worked out issues of interaction at all stages of air patrol. Air cover for the aircraft was provided by Russian Su-30SM and Su-35S fighters. In the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone, the Russian aircraft were accompanied by US Air Force F-16 and F-35 fighters and Canadian CF-18 fighters. The duration of the joint flight of Russian and Chinese aircraft was more than 5 hours.
The Irkutsk Aviation Plant has manufactured and delivered new upgraded Su-30SM2 aircraft to the Russian Defense Ministry. Russian Su-30SM2 fighters are equipped with an improved set of onboard radio-electronic equipment. The aircraft upgrade has increased the detection and identification range of air targets. The fighter has also received new high-precision weapons for destroying air, land and sea targets at a range of several hundred kilometers. The technical characteristics of the upgraded Su-30SM2 have not been disclosed.
The prototype of the Russian modernized combat training aircraft Yak-130M was shown at the 2024 forum. The main goal of the modernization is to expand the combat capabilities of the aircraft. The new Yak-130M will become a full-fledged light attack aircraft. Technical specifications in the links to the video in the comments to the video. The Yak-130M aircraft is equipped with systems that significantly increase its capabilities: the BRLS-130R onboard radar station, the SOLT-130K optical-laser thermal television system, the President-S130 onboard defense system, and the KSS-130 communications system. New systems and air-to-air and air-to-ground missiles will ensure the use of the Yak-130M aircraft for training and combat purposes around the clock and in difficult weather conditions.
The crews of the Ka-27M and Ka-27PL of the Northern Fleet of Russia conducted exercises to detect and destroy a "submarine" of a mock enemy in the Kola Bay. The helicopters used anti-submarine aerial bombs in the waters of the Kola Bay. During the week, the pilots worked several flight shifts. The total number of flight hours of the crews was more than 20. The Russian Ka-27 helicopter is designed to detect, track and destroy submarines moving at a depth of up to 500 m at a speed of up to 75 km / h in search areas located up to 200 km from the base, with sea waves up to 5 points.
Another batch of fifth-generation Su-57 and Su-35S aircraft has been delivered to the Russian Air Force. The number of aircraft is not reported. It also became known that as part of the expansion of production capacity, to increase the production volumes of fifth-generation aircraft, the construction of an additional workshop has begun, where Su-57 systems will be tested. Previously, work was completed to expand the flight test station. Today, the Su-57 is considered the most modern frontline aviation aircraft
As part of the recent Russian exercises "Ocean-2024", footage of the takeoff of four Russian anti-submarine aircraft Il-38 and Il-38N was published. The aircraft laid mines in a sea training ground. As reported, more than 50 training sea mines were dropped by parachute near Kamchatka, with their help a section of the sea coast about 10 kilometers long was blocked. The Il-38 aircraft began to be used in 1969, it was created on the basis of the Il-18V aircraft, the first Il-38 were inferior in characteristics to American aircraft. In 2001, a modernized anti-submarine aircraft Il-38N appeared, equipped with the search and targeting complex "Novella-P-38", since 2014 the Air Force received them. It is worth noting that five modernized aircraft are also used by India under the index Il-38SD. Visually, the Il-38N differs from the Il-38 by additional antennas of the all-round radar station, located above the nose of the fuselage. The Il-38N can detect air targets at a distance of up to 90 km, and surface targets - up to 320 km, there is no information about underwater targets. The maximum takeoff weight of the aircraft is 68 tons with a combat load of 6 tons. It can reach speeds of up to 650 km / h, the maximum flight altitude is 8 km. The flight range with a normal combat load reaches 6.6 thousand km. The aircraft crew is seven people.
Footage has been published of the Russian Navy's Il-38N anti-submarine aircraft flying past the Sapphire Princess cruise liner. The liner belongs to the American cruise line Princess Cruises. The aircraft greeted the ship's passengers by shaking its wings. Technical information about the Il-38N aircraft is available on the channel. The video was most likely filmed over the Pacific Ocean.
The Russian Air Force has received another batch of Su-34 fighter-bombers, the number is not reported. The Su-34 aircraft received an updated software and hardware weapons control system for more effective use of guided aerial bombs with UMPK modules. The use of bombs with UMPK allowed the Su-34 to carry out high-altitude patrols and reduce the risk of aircraft being hit by an air defense system.
Footage of a Russian Su-35S aircraft patrolling the Kursk region of Russia. The Su-35S fighter is armed with an air-to-ground anti-radar missile Kh-31P, an air-to-air medium-range missile R-77 (RVV-SD) and an air-to-air super-long-range missile R-37M (RVV-BD). During patrols, the Su-35S fighter uses the Irbis-E onboard radar to search for cruise missiles and aircraft at a range of up to 400 km.
Footage has been published of Russian Su-35S fighter jets escorting the plane of Chinese President Xi Jinping as it approached Kazan. Let me remind you that Xi Jinping arrived in Kazan to participate in the BRICS summit. Guided by the tradition of welcoming high-ranking guests, Russian Air Force fighter jets met and escorted the plane of the Chinese leader to the Kazan airport
Footage of the landing, taxiing, engine sound of the Russian Su-57 fighter in China. The fifth-generation Su-57 fighter landed in China for the first time, the aircraft will participate in the Airshow China 2024 aerospace exhibition. Russia is showing the Su-57 abroad for the first time, and China has become the first country where Russia has sent its fighter. The onboard system of the Su-57 aircraft can track up to 60 targets, simultaneously firing at 16 of them.
