The power of the Russian military aviation

Recently passed the teachings of operational-tactical aviation of the Central Military District (CVO) refueling aircraft fuel in the air. More than 60 crews from 3 air bases fuel overflow worked day and night in the sky above the Chelyabinsk region, Perm and Krasnoyarsk edges.
But I'm not going to show the scientists themselves, and the planes that took part in them.

So, we decided to go to the airport and take pictures of the landing after workouts.

In flights involving Sukhoi Su-24M, fighter-interceptor MiG-31BM and tankers Il-78 tankers.
MiG-31BM remained in Perm, to us they did not come because Perm was another tanker, flying a sense we were not.

After several hours of waiting and returned to the tanker Il-78M. Side wind was very strong, the tanker drifting into the side well. In the photo a feeling that it flies directly to us, in fact it is only the nose is turned in our direction, and moves to the left of us, it brings side - certainly a beautiful sight, but such a landing requires special skills.

It should be recalled that the refueling - is one of the most difficult elements of training of flight crews.

Middle ORM removed, it is mostly needed for long-range aircraft Tu-95 and Tu-22M-3, Tu-160. When refueling fighters used podkrylevye ORM.
