They hide TU-22M3 from the Armed Forces: experts found out why the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are used
The airfield shows at least one heavy military transport IL-76 and An-22, which could bring projectiles there. Experts have questioned the data on the non -use of the Airrodrome Air Force for military purposes since 1991. It is known that by 1992, the Strategic Bombers of the Tu-95MC were in the Montidok.
And during the first war with Chechnya in 1995-1996, "Mozdok" became one of the three reference bases for aviation of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which struck the Chechen troops and civilians. "Most likely," Mozdok "was used as a reference point for aircraft of the Russian Federation during the war against Georgia in 2008. There are official data from Ra *** Stev that" Mozdok "in 2016 was the base for TU-22M3 during the war in the war in Syria, " - the researchers said.
During the Syrian campaign, fighter jets were used as "classic bombings" and for attacks with uncontrollable aircraft. And in 2016, the GUR Defense Ministry reported the use of an airfield as a transshipment base. From there, the Russian troops delivered air to the contingent ammunition in Syria. Not only IL-76 but also An-124 were used on the route. "It becomes even more interesting and sharp about why RA *** CTs have just started using the Azhdok airfield as a rocket -strokes in Ukraine.
It seems that there is an explanation here not only in the enemy's attempts to find new ways to overcome our air defense," - - - - The authors of the material were concluded. Analysts then provide fragments of interview with the commander of the 4th Air Force and Air Force of the Southern Military District of the Russian Federation, Major General Mykola Khidev. He explained that earlier the aerodromes "Mozdok" and "Korenovsk" were on reconstruction.
They built a new runway and other technical structures. "It is likely that Mozdok was reconstructed at the end of 2022, or at the beginning of 2023, which is why the Russian military" mentioned "about this facility as a base for rocket strikes in Ukraine," DEFENCE Express was added. There is another version. The Russians needed an additional airfield to "maneuver capacity" strategic aviation to protect part of the TU-22M3 from a possible impact in response to the Armed Forces.
British officials have previously stated that the TU-22M3 bombers and Tu-95MC bombers in the PCS of the Russian Federation became 1. 5 times smaller than it was on paper. Recall that Radio Svoboda journalists had previously noticed the first six TU-22M3 aircraft at the Mozdok on May 24. And a month ago there was no strategic aviation at all. Focus also wrote about the shelling of the Mirgorod military aerodrome in the Poltava region on June 10 with ballistic and winged Iskander missiles.
