Three Tu-142 long-range and three Il-38N anti-submarine aircraft will represent the Pacific Fleet at the Main Naval Parade which is to take place in St. Petersburg and Kronstadt on July 28.

Pacific Fleet aircraft will make a flight more than 8,000km long from Primorye to the Kipelovo airfield in Vologosk region, where crews will practise a demonstration programme for the event. It is planned that training flights will begin in the first half of July.

In 2018, three long-range anti-submarine aircraft of the Pacific Fleet participated at the Main Naval Parade.
