On this day in Serpukhov (Moscow region), an aviation squadron was formed, which in 1949 was first equipped with Mi-1 helicopters.
Development of technology and expansion of tasks
Initially, the tasks of the helicopter aviation, which was considered auxiliary, included cargo transportation, fire adjustment, exploration and maintenance of communication on the battlefield. Due to the fact that the technique was improved, by the 1970s. Helicopters have become an independent means of fire support for air troops. In addition, they are also used to transfer the landing, search and rescue operations, etc. Soviet, and later Russian army aviation successfully showed itself in hostilities in Afghanistan in the 1980s. And in the "hot spots" North Caucasus In the 1990s.
Show submission
In 1990, army aviation became an independent family of troops in the area of \u200b\u200bthe Ground Forces of the USSR.

RESPECTIVE
At present time runs Redemon by parts of army aviation for new and upgraded helicopters. During 2015, 158 new or renovated at the enterprises of the defense and industrial complex of machines arrived in the troops.
Today is marked next 62nd Anniversary Army Aviationwhich represents one of the birth of the Russian Air Force. Day of the creation of army aviation is considered to be October 28, 1948When the first aviation squadron equipped with helicopters was formed in the Serpukhov near Moscow.

The helicopter aviation was first called the auxiliary - in its task it was cargo transportation, fire adjustment, exploration, communication. Then, during the technical evolution, the helicopters turned into terrible weapon. And in the early 70s of the twentieth century, with the adoption of adopting, whose main role was the support of the ground forces on the battlefield, the auxiliary aviation became army.
For more than half a century of history of army aviation, the crews of her winged cars visited all the "hot spots" of Russia and far beyond. Today they show high samples of courage and heroism, performing combat missions in the North Caucasus. During the Great Patriotic War There was such a concept - mass heroism. And today in parts of army aviation in hot spots, it is manifested almost daily.
In a peaceful environment, army aviation provides measures of combat training of ground forces. None of the teachings of various scales are carried out without aviation support, without the participation of combat and transport helicopters.
Per recent decades Army aircraft passed several times from the Air Force in Ground troops and back. In 1990, Army Aviation became an independent sense of troopsAnd by January 2003 was transferred to the Military Air Force.
Loyalty oath, courage and professionalism of those who are in service today - warranty peaceful Life countries.

The basis of army aviation of the Air Force of Russia
The basis of military helicopter aviation is the Army Aviation Air Force (several thousand helicopters in various applications), which includes their combat versions (including the Mi-8 helicopters armed with uncontrollable weapons).
Currently, the tasks of aviation support for the general-known formations are solved mainly by helicopters. , Ka-50, and. These helicopters found wide application and have made a great contribution to the defeat of gangs in Chechen Republic and other regions of the North Caucasus when conducting counter-terrorism operations. An important role is played in the composition of limited contingents. peacekeeping forces Outside of Russia.
In the interests of improving combat capacity (first of all survival, mobility and applicability) OCPs are held around the clock and all-weather options. mi-28n combat helicopter. Military helicopter aircraft currently applies in all kinds and birth of the Armed Forces of Russia and decides wide spectrum Tasks, including by transporting the personnel of troops and material and technical means. For these purposes, the average transport - landing helicopters of the Mi-8 family ( Mi-8MT, Mi-8MTV-1, Mi-8MTV-2, Mi-8MTV-3), as well as heavy helicopters MI-26.who have no analogues in the global helicopter construction.
On their base are created and developed new helicopters of various targets (level-resistant, air control, tankers, reconnaissance helicopters in the interests of solving engineering and chemical troops, search and rescue helicopters other).
Great value B. lately attached to the creation light-class helicopters with a lifting capacity of about 1000 kg (Light multi-purpose helicopter). These helicopters will be the basis for creating complexes based on them. special purpose In the interests of species and childbirth Armed Forces (training, hardware intelligence, medical and other). New developments in this regard are training helicopters "" and Ka-60u.
In general, the helicopter aviation and today will continue to be applied not only in the interests of the Ministry of Defense, but also the other power structures of Russia (Ministry of Emergency Situations). At the same time, the helicopters of these departments interact closely with the units and units of the RF RF, thereby ensuring the successful solution of tasks in the conduct of hostilities and in emergency situations.
Taking into account the possibility of double-use helicopters to solve the tasks of civilian departments and supplies to export their role is constantly increasing. This circumstance has a positive effect on the potential opportunities to improve the fleet of military helicopters.
Night Hunter Mi-28N will be the basis of army aviation
As the Head of the Office of Army Aviation Aviation of the Russian Air Force, General-Major, Viktor Ivanov, re-equipment of army air force for helicopters Mi-28N It is planned to complete by 2015. " In accordance with state program Arms Equipment the newest machines Mi-28N "Night Hunter" should be completed in 2015. It is planned that Mi-28N will become the main combat vehicle for all army aviation"," Ivanov emphasized.
The crew of the combat vehicle is 2 people. The helicopter is in service with a 30-mm gun, anti-tank controlled missiles "Sturm" or "Attack-B", as well as machine guns and grenade launchers. Maximum speed In the horizontal flight - about 324 km per hour, the combat load of the helicopter is 1600 kg.
Mi-28N "Night Hunter" has special system Protection of pilots and can "see" the enemy at a distance of up to 35 kilometers even in the dark. Test pilots call it a "fighter helicopter", and in the people it was already dubbed "flying tank". " it whole complexwhich allows the pilot to fight at night, it is a thermal imager. In this helicopter they are implemented in two versions - for a pilot and operator, there are night vision glasses"I told in an interview with RIA Novosti, Deputy Chief Designer of the Moscow Helicophetic Plant Dmitry Sergeev.
As the creators note, the Mi-28N helicopter is equipped with an impressive reserve of weapons. Built-in movable cannon installation at ten shots may literally disseminate the enemy armored personnel carrier on the part; complex managed rockets The needle is designed to destroy helicopters and unmanned enemy aircraft.
but the main force of the "Night Hunter" is anti-tank rockets "Attack-B", there will be no enemy tank against the opponent. Mi-28N is equipped with a special system of survivability. The coalcasting machine is designed in such a way as to protect the crew to maximize - fully armored cabin will endure even the direct hit of the caliber bullets 12.7 mm.
The crew is located in a special way - the place of the pilot is above the arrow's place, so managed to make the car more flat, and therefore less vulnerable in battle. Mi-28N helicopters "Night Hunter" already enroll russian army. First of all, they will equip military districts in the Caucasus and the Far East.

history of the holiday
October 28, 1948 in the USSR was created special division - Helicopter squadron, the base for which served military unit In the city of Serpukhov (Moscow region). This day and became the starting date in the creation of army aviation.
Helicopters were the basis of a squadron, but they did not perform combat missions. Their main task was to supply other types of troops, organization of communication between them, intelligence. But soon these cars began to use as a combat gun, and they played important role In operations in Afghanistan, Tajikistan and other places.
In 1990, Army Aviation was derived from the Air Force (Air Force) of Russia and became an independent sense of troops. In 2003, she was transferred back.
Some experts consider the transfer of army aviation to the erroneous Air Force, since this leads to large human and financial costs.
At the end of 2014, Russia ranked 1st place in the number of combat helicopters produced. So, if in 2007 it released 20 pieces, then in 2013 - more than 120 each modification.
Army aircraft participated in ensuring peace and security during the referendum on the self-determination of the Crimea.
In September 2014, during the exercises, 16 helicopters were equipped with additional fuel tanks, which gave them the opportunity to fly 1,300 kilometers (more than 6 hours over the sea), from the island of ITUURUP at the airfield of Kamchatka Elizovo, without refueling.
Special martial helicopters started collecting in Ulan-Ude for combat use They are in the latitudes of the Arctic. 8 cars have already received 2 Russian military bases.
October 28, 1948 became starting point Creating domestic army aviation. It was on this day that the first aircraft army squadron was formed, the location of the deployment of which was the Moscow region of Serpukhov. It was the first helicopter unit of the air force in the country, which received the official name of the 26th Outae (a separate training and training aviation squadron).
The selection of personal composition in the formed division was quite rigid. For the 26th training and training aviation squadron, experienced battlefield pilots assigned and fighter aviationMany of whom managed to show themselves during the Great Patriotic War. However, they were among the pilots attracted to the service and very young people. But it was a truly strong youth, which has already managed to show its capabilities during the service on aircraft IL-2 and IL-10. One of the representatives of the young officer was Egor Milyutychev - a senior lieutenant, who served as an instructor in the aviation school.

October 28 celebrate their professional holiday People who know exactly what is the romance of the sky and the mounted space. This day is a festive for pilots, navigations, flights, terrestrial specialists and for all those who relate to army aviation.
It was October 28 in 1948 in the Moscow region Serpukhov and the first division of army aviation was formed - an aviation squadron, which entered the helicopters of Mr..
Its initial tasks were transporting through the air of various goods, conducting intelligence and communication. In other words, the tasks were limited to auxiliary framework. By the way, it was the auxiliary army aviation initially and was called.
It received the name of the army already in the early 1970s, after the adoption of the Mi-24 helicopter, whose main task was to support the actions of the ground forces from the air.
Over the years of its existence, army aircraft participated in various search and rescue operations, as well as in the operations to prevent natural and technogenic disasters. In particular, the professional pilot experience was used in the elimination of the accident on Chernobyl nuclear power plant In 1986. Experienced pilots- "Afghans" committed incredible feats, literally stopping the helicopters above the cavity of the destroyed 4th power unit, and letting the ability to lose down the sandbags and lead blanks. The expediency of these measures, as it turned out later, was very dubious, but this does not cancel the dedication of the action of carriages of helicopters in the sky over Chernobyl and Pripyat.
Crews of Army Aviation were involved in the resolution of military conflicts in Russia and countries former USSR, defended the interests of our homeland in the "hot spots" beyond the boundaries of our country. This is also mentioned Afghanistan, where the success of the crews and technicians of army aviation often depended on the success of whole operations against the groups of militants, actively supported by the West and the monarchies of the Persian Gulf.
Nowadays, army aviation takes part in military operation against international terrorists in the Syrian Arab Republic. Today it is impossible not to remember the death of the Mi-25 carriage of the helicopter. Crew commander Colonel R. Khabibullin and Lieutenant E. Dolgin The price of his lives rushed the onset of militants ig (* is prohibited in the Russian Federation) in position syrian army In the Palmyra region.
The pilots of army aviation of the Russian Federation participate in numerous humanitarian operations in Africa, in the Middle East, in countries Central Asia. This is unnoticed by many departments and the media work actually carries no less risks than participation in a direct battle operation. After all, Russian helicopters and Russian crews, which are part of the flight fleet of many international organizations, more than once were shelled from various bandgroups. And they were subjected to the moments when it was expected to be less.
Modern army aircraft plays an increasing role in the strategy and tactics of rescue and combat operations. It is for this reason that an increase and update of the helicopter park is one of the priorities for the development of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
The Army Aviation Aviation of the Russian Federation today includes shock, multipurpose and military transport helicopters.
Until 2020, more than 1 thousand new coilry machines should be entered into arms aircraft. This is primarily about combat helicopters ka-52 "Alligator". The helicopter is designed to destroy tanks, armored and unarmented combat technology, live strength, helicopters and others. aircraft enemy, capable of acting in any weather conditions And at any time of the day. The vest machine is equipped with the most modern and powerful weapons that can be configured for various combat tasks. In addition, the ka-52 "Alligator" is equipped with a system of radio-electronic protection and substitution reduction devices that reduce, diffuse and distorting thermal trail of the engines, as well as means of active counteraction.
In 2019, the Helicopters of Russia Holding intends to reach a contract with the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation for the supply of Russian deck helicopters Ka-52K Katran. Ministry of Defense of Russia this information already confirmed.
Currently, the Holding specialists are developing the unmanned version of the light multi-purpose helicopter Ka-226t. This development will allow you to enter new level helicopters construction in Russia.
Over the past decades, army aircraft reformed several times and reorganized, passed from Air force In the ground forces and back. In 1990, Army Aviation became an independent sense of troops, and in 2003 it was again transferred to the maintenance of the Air Force of Russia, which in turn became part of the CCED RF.
But the transformation of transformations, and the main domain of army aviation has always been and remain moral and volitional qualities of pilots, their professionalism and willingness to make their business without excess pathos.
"Military Review" congratulates the personnel and veterans of army aviation with the holiday!
