Russian pilots destroyed a simulated bandit formation in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan

Russian Aviaton » Wednesday June 7, 2017 10:15 MSK

Pilots of the joint Russian airbase of Kant took part in the exercise to search and destroy the imaginary bandit formation in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan.

Crews of the Su-25SM attack aircraft, manoeuvring above the mountainous terrain, reached the target area at the appointed time and struck out at it with 50-kilogram bombs.

Destruction of imaginary militants was completed by Mi-8 transport-and-combat helicopters that carried out air-to-surface missile launches against full-sized targets simulating disguised ground targets in the highlands.
