He suffered a catastrophe in the sky above the Irkutsk region during the flight, it is known that the pilot died.
60 > Tu-22M3 aircraft are the main in Russia. The military expert, the instructor, Colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in reserve, Roman Svitan, told about this channel 24, adding that there are several dozens left, but not all of them can rise to the sky. ~ 60 > 60 ~ h2 class = “News-Subtitle Cke-Markup” > why it crashed The bomber< p > these aircraft are already quite old, some of them are not flying at all, they are used only to analyze, staff and increase the air resource of other vessels. Several dozen Tu-22M3 are still in the air, but they regularly fall.
< p class = "Bloquote Cke-Markup" > the problem is not so much in exhaustion of aircraft with age as in the initial technical project. Once they were called “cannibals” because a lot of crew members died there, ”said Roman Svatan.
~ 60 > crew is 4 people-2 pilots and 2 storman operator. They sit, as if in the car in pairs. Basically, forced catapulting is used during which, even if someone survives, the health will be greatly undermined. There are very serious problems with the spine. Few then sits down again for the helm.
< p class = "Bloquote Cke-Markup" > this plane itself is very unsuccessful. It was planned back in the Soviet Union, but still used. All due to the fact that it remains the main carrier of the X-22 missile, ”the instructor pilot emphasized.
~ 60 > Russians have quite a lot of these missiles. At one time, at the beginning of the independence of Ukraine, our power transferred them to Russia along with bombers. Today they are launched in Ukrainian cities. They are very not accurate, but fatal, because they carry about tons of ammunition and fly at high speeds.
< p class = "Bloquote Cke-Markup" > Russians will continue to use their sides, and they will continue to fall. All because of the priority technical malfunctions that were immediately on the plane. Therefore, the cause of the fall is most likely a technical malfunction, ”Roman Svatan emphasized.
~ 60 > recall, the Tu-22M3 bomber crashed on April 2. At the same time, he touched the power line and left more than 200 houses without light. Local authorities confirmed this information and promised to quickly restore the malfunctions.
