A-50 dislocation: Six Dlo without engines have noticed in the Russian Federation-pictures

In total, only four A-50 are in the Ivanovo region of the Russian Federation, experts said. The rest of the machines perform the function of the donor spare parts. The Ivanovo-North Airrod, which is located in the Ivanovo region of the Russian Federation, is the main place of dislocation of aircraft of the long-range radar detection A-50 and A-50U. This was reported on March 7 by Defense Express observers.

According to satellite images published by the OSint-Storage Mt_anderson, there are 11 A-50 aircraft on the air base: four cars are actively used on duty, one aircraft outwardly, but is out of motion, and at least six A-50 in storage, of which at all. The engines were removed. It is noted that the observer came to the conclusion about the activity of the equipment on the air base on the basis of traces from the wheels of the chassis on the snow cover.

Thus, it turned out that only four A-50s performed flights with some regularity. The rest of the cars were not attracted, although they are all equipped with characteristic "plates" of the radar system "bumblebees". "Traces of wheels in the snow can also indicate when and with what activity of these sides" cannibalized "spare parts," experts write. They added that there were no contradictions about A-50. The number of aircraft of this type is meant, given the Ukrainian Air Defense forces.

Based on the fact that the Russian PCS lost two such planes, there are seven or eight cars left in the order, and the majority of sides are concentrated in "Ivanovo-Primary". The rest of the equipment is in a non -working condition and is used as donor parts. We will remind, in the company "Rostek" reported that the Russian defense industry will restore the production of aircraft of early warning and management of A-50U.
