MIL-OSI Russian Federation: In St. Petersburg,
ZVO pilots conducted a unique operation to transport the Su-27 fighter on the external suspension of the Mi-26 helicopter

The pilots of the aviation regiment stationed in St. Petersburg conducted a unique operation
to transport the Su-27 fighter on the external suspension of the Mi-26 helicopter.

Having departed from the Levashovo airfield,
the crew of the Mi-26 helicopter took a fifteen-ton Su-27 fighter jet, located at the Pushkin airfield,
and took the plane to Kronstadt in the military historical park of the Western Military District.

The crew traveled about 60 km along a special route designed in accordance with safety requirements.

Transportation of non-standard cargo on the external load is one of the most difficult tasks
for crews of heavy transport helicopters Mi-26,
which are regularly worked out during training flights.
The maximum payload of the Mi-26 is 20 tons,
the on-board video cameras allow the crew to monitor the condition of the transported cargo.
