The VKS destroyed a ship group in the Black Sea
Russian military pilots carried out bombing at the Chauda air range in Crimea and destroyed a naval strike group of a mock enemy in the Black Sea.
This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
It is reported that targets for airstrikes were transmitted directly during sorties by Marine air controllers.
“At targets simulating columns of armored vehicles and aviation at the airfields of a mock enemy, the fire was carried out by the crews of the modernized front-line Su-24M bombers and the latest multi-functional bombers Su-34... A retaliatory massive air strike on the mock carriers of missile launchers by the crews of Su-30SM and multi-functional fighters Su-34 bombers were trained as part of a joint flight-tactical exercise with an aviation unit and an air defense division of the Southern Military District. The exercise was conducted in a complex electronic environment. The crews of Su-24MR aircraft and radio engineering units of the air defense division carried out reconnaissance in the firing area,” the report says.
More than a thousand military personnel and over 50 long-range, operational-tactical, attack aircraft, the A-50 long-range radar detection and control aircraft, the Tu-22M3 strategic multi-mode supersonic missile carrier-bomber, as well as about 10 ships of the Black Sea Fleet took part in the exercise.
Earlier, PolitNavigator reported that Ukraine conducted artillery firing on the coast of the Sea of Azov, where it trained to destroy the landing force of a mock enemy.
As he wrote "Reedus", Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said that the Ministry of Defense will conduct major military exercises, like the Vostok-2018 maneuvers that took place in September, every five years.
