Ukrajna je tipican primer zemlje koja dobije bogato nasledstvo od bogatog rodjaka. .Imaju odlicno RV i PVO,sto pre svega mogu da zahvale raspadu SSSR.Rusija je trazila da im vrate deo tehnike,ali se sve zavrsilo vracanjem dela strateskih bombardera,dok su ostalo zadrzali za sebe.

UKRAINIAN AIR FORCE IN STEEP DIVING

In late March, for the first time in the history of newly independent Ukraine's armed forces, the national air force carried out a training operation in cooperation with air defense force and a Western Tactical Command's outfit. The operation was called an experimental command-and-staff exercise held jointly with aviation corps No 14, and provided for carrying out an aircraft-and-ground operation according to a modern warfare scenario. The exercises included practical bomb-dropping at the Kamenka-Buh training ground, involving around two dozen aircraft, among which were SU-17M4 and SU-24mr spy planes, SU-25 attack planes, SU-24M bombers, MiG-29 fighters, as well as Mi-24 helicopters of the Ground Force's combat aviation brigade. One would be satisfied with the fact that the air force had drilled 35 combat operations, including scouting, bomb-dropping, terrestrial fire and aerial target interception, but for the fairly unwelcome trend that has become visible within the air force recently.
The country's military-political leadership's interest in the air force is quite understandable, especially in the light of the most recent war campaigns that confirmed the importance of aviation in the modern warfare. The Ukrainian military command understands that too well, to which testifies the statement by the defense minister that "this year will be devoted to the air force development."


WILL UKRAINIAN AIR FORCE BE BROUGHT TO COLLAPSE IN A FEW YEARS FROM NOW?

Late last year Air Force Commander Colonel-General Viktor Strelnikov said only a fraction of air force crews, i.e. around 40 per cent of pilots, are ready to carry out combat missions. That statement made defense experts anticipate even harder times, in spite of all the assurances that last year's combat training programs had been fulfilled 99 percent. General Strelnikov blamed such a situation on clearly insufficient funding for the national air force.


The parliament deputies who organized a visiting session of the parliamentary committee for national security and defense in Vinnytsya last December, verified the worst anticipations. Following a three-hour long talk with the air force command, deputy Anatoly Domansky, who chaired the session, said: "If funding for the armed forces remains as it is, the Ukrainian aviation school may be brought to collapse in a few years from now." Presently, a Ukrainian air force pilot flies a mere 40 percent of the 100-110 hours required by the standard training fly program. The bulk of young pilots have flied a mere 100-200 hours, as against the minimum 1,000 hours a first category pilot used to fly in the Soviet times. If that trend continues, the prospect for the Ukrainian air force is cheerless. General Strelnikov insists that Ukraine retained a good pilot training school. But it was the same Strelnikov, who acknowledged last year that Ukrainian pilots "fly eight to ten-fold shorter time than required."


It is difficult to assess the overall situation, in which "flights are only carried out by the best trained aircraft crews". But Ukraine is a country of paradoxes: not only Ukrainian pilots invariably take part in the world's most prestigious air shows, but they invariably win victories too. Last year, villagers resident along the Kyiv-Lviv highway witnessed an unbelievable situation, when five MiG-29 fighters involved in the Redut'99 training exercises made a landing just on the highway, the Air Force Commander Strelnikov being the first to land his plane.


But even Strelnikov, for all his devotion to the Air Force, cannot make an unfuelled plane take off. But fuel reserves have practically run dry. Almost all of air force planes have lied up since last November, according to an Air Force Command officer. Now the Air Force Headquarters hope for extra funding coming soon due to a surprise decision made early this year to downsize the Air Force by ten regiments and sell out around 600 aircraft and 400 helicopters. Naftogaz Ukrayiny monopoly promised to give the Air Force revenues obtained from the sale of 11 strategic bombers to Russia. But that question is in a limbo following Ihor Bakay's resignation as Naftogaz president.


Meanwhile, 14 aircraft accidents have taken place over seven years of the Air Force history. Last year alone, three accidents took place, two of which left several pilots killed. Numerous fact-finding teams investigating the accidents invariably blame them on safety violations, but defense experts are inclined to place the blame on the lack of pilots' flying practice.

ima li ukrajina mogucnosti da proizvodi nove avione ,osim Su-25 (mislim da ni njega ne mogu da proizvode u potpunosti)  ?

U ovom trenutku mogu samo da sanjaju o tome.Kod njih je situacija veoma teska,bukvalno je pitanje sta ce biti sa njihovim RV u narednim godinama.

Bravo Ujkaalberte , konacno jedna prava tema, a i nastavak lepe serije koju si zapoceo. Svaka cast!

Znaci, Ukrajinci su bas zglajznuli sto se avio industrije tice. Pa njihov je Antonov, sunce mu. Imali su oni i neke avijacijske pionire. Steta, bas steta, a najvise me cudi za Antonova. Ma da nisu to mozda preuzeli Rusi ... mada ne verujem, nista nisam cuo. Ajde, kazite, sigurno znate nesto o tome.
 

Papalu.
Slab sam sa vremenom pa osim vikenda nemam vremena za nove teme.Drago mi je da pratis teme.
Sto se tice avio industrije,jedino znacajno sto su radili je neka modernizacija za Indiju.Ne racunam to sto prodaju Mig-29 i SU-27 koje su nasledili,privatnim kolekcionarima na Zapadu.

Evo nesto vise o poslu sa Indijom.

Indian Air Force AN-32 Cargo Planes to be Upgraded by Ukrspetsexport

A Ukrainian government company will upgrade more than 100 Indian Air Force cargo aircraft, the Interfax news agency reported Monday. Officials from the Ukrainian military export monopolist Ukrspetsexport signed a contract worth more than 400 million dollars to modernize Antonov-32 twin-engine turboprop planes operated by India's military, the report said citing unnamed Ukrspetsexport officials.

The upgrades to be performed by technicians from the Kiev- headquartered Antonov Aircraft company will give India's An-32 fleet "a full modernisation of on-board communications and navigation equipment," according to the report.

Ujkaalberte, ma samo cool, mnogo si uradio i ovako, nema potrebe da se vise i opterecujes. Samo polako pa se vremenom nagomila dosta toga. Eto zahvaljujuci tebi ja sad imam neki uvid u sve te vazduhoplovne snage, a obaska fotografije. Svaka cast
Samo polako

Znaci, Ukrajinci ipak nesto rade, remontuju, ugradjuju... hmh, ajde neka.

Nesto rade,ali su generalno gledano u velikim problemima.
