Are there any solid info about Admiral Lazarev? It has been repainted lately. I might have missed something important. In the link Austin had provided it can be found in the inventory of Pacific fleet, but I guess many ships there have been put into reserve.
As well as the Fulcrums from Erebuni airbase. But they would have to fly through Iran and Iraq in order to penetrate Turkish airspace from the Syrian side.
The “Krasnodar”, laid down @ Admiralty shipyards on February 20th 2014, has begun factory trials.
That seems very fast, TR1. Way faster than the first 3. They ramped up production, taking into consideration Vietnamese orders. Who’s making them, Admiralteyskie Verfi? Are they building something else beside improved Kilos?
Anybody knows in what scheme the VMF will paint their MiG-29K?
Is there any replacement on the horizon for the Ka-27 family? Could a navalized Ka-62 be an option taking into consideration its way lighter (MTOW 6500kg vs 12000kg) and carries twice as less (2000kg vs 4000kg) load?
