Turkey-Finland mission to perform an observation flight over the territory of the Russian Federation

During the flight along the agreed route, Russian specialists on board the observation aircraft will monitor the strict observance of the agreed flight parameters and application of the monitoring equipment stipulated by the contract.

In the period from August 5 to 9, within the framework of the international Treaty on Open Skies, the joint Tyrkey-Finland mission will perform an observation flight over the territory of the Russian Federation on the SN-235 observation aircraft from the Kubinka airfield. This was announced by the Head of the National Centre for Nuclear Risk Reduction Sergei Ryzhkov.

During the flight along the agreed route, Russian specialists on board the observation aircraft will monitor the strict observance of the agreed flight parameters and application of the monitoring equipment stipulated by the contract.

The SN-235 observation aircraft is a type of airplane which is not designed for using any weapons. The aircraft and observation equipment installed on it (aerial cameras) underwent an international certification, in which Russian specialists took part, which precludes the use of technical means not covered by the treaty.
