It will then still remain to deal with the MiG-27, Su-17 and Su-25. I take this opportunity to make it clear that the articles are classified according to the units denomination as they were designated by the Soviets. Thus, it is a question here of "fighter-bomber aviation regiments." Therefore, as an example, the MiG-29s of "fighter aviation regiments," although also having a fighter-bombing mission, are not covered.

The second part of the "Reconnaissance and Electronic Warfare" chapter has been updated and is now available in English language. The theme of that page was previously the Su-24MR and MP of the 11.ORAP. The update composed of two pages is now about all the aircraft types flown by the 11.ORAP in the GDR. The first page is about the Il-28R, Yak-27R, Yak-28R and Yak-28PP and the second page (completely updated) is about the Su-24MR and MP. The next update will be about the MiG-25RB variants flown by the 931.OGRAP.

Instead, you will reach a new menu from where you will be able to reach directly each part of the chapter.

Twenty years ago, the Berlin wall fell apart, whereas the last elements of the 16th Air Army left Germany 15 years ago. 2009 is therefore a good year to put this site online, although the period was not deliberately chosen!
The MiG-27 photo page and the page about units relocations in Russia will be online in a few weeks. Work will then continue on Mi-8 and Mi-24 pages, which will be completed in several months. Other missing pages will follow after.
In the meantime, numerous small updates (text and images) will be progressively included in the already existing pages.
