The Russian Naval Air Force, a MiG-29 fighter jet that is carrying out a mission with the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier off the coast of Syria, crashed into the Mediterranean during the return flight and the pilot safely parachuted and escaped. So, what is the cause of this crash? Will it affect Russia’s military operations in Syria?
The Russian MiG-29 was crashing into the sea while preparing to return to the ship. Observer Liang Yongchun believes that the crash should be caused by the combination of mechanical failure and human factors.
The engine of the MiG-29 has always been problematic. The Indian Navy has been complaining about its reliability when using this aircraft, especially when preparing for the ship. Because it is flying at low speed and low speed, once the engine fails, the airplane will drop height. Of course, the MiG-29 is a twin-engine fighter. Even if an engine is turned off, it will not completely lose its power. This requires the pilot to be very calm and correct when dealing with dangerous situations, in order to save the risk.
The Russian Navy had not been equipped before, so it is very likely that the pilot was in a panic when he was in danger, and he jumped directly to escape. In any case, the crash made the NATO countries such as the United States, which was on the side of the scene, have a new understanding of the current level of combat effectiveness of Russian naval aviation.
The Kuznetsov aircraft carrier was ordered to travel to the Mediterranean to combat terrorists in Syria. Observer Liang Yongchun pointed out that although the crash caused the Russian naval aviation to suffer setbacks, it did not affect Russia's established military strike plan in Syria.
Because the Russian Air Force has already deployed enough air strike troops in Syria, even if it is to use naval air, the aircraft carried by the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier itself is Su-33, which is enough to complete the mission. The Russian aircraft carrier is equipped with both Su-33 and MiG-29 carrier-based fighters. Because the security systems of different models are completely different, it is not necessary from the operational point of view. Why is it doing this? Obviously, on the one hand, the actual test is carried out, on the other hand, an on-site assessment of the reliability and battlefield adaptability of the two types of aircraft is required. However, this crash will indeed have a certain impact on the development of Russian naval aviation.
Igor Koren, commander of the Russian Naval Air Force, has previously stated that the MiG-29 is still in the test period as the only option for Russia’s carrier aircraft carrier. Observer Liang Yongchun believes that the crash has increased the difficulty of the MiG-29 in the Russian aircraft carrier.
In the 1990s, when the Kuznetsov had just begun to select a carrier, it actually had two choices, one was the Su-33 and the other was the MiG-29K. At that time, the Russian Navy chose the Su-33 and did not choose the MiG-29, because the Su-33 fighter was superior in performance to the MiG-29. Now that the Su-33 is about to reach the maximum life of service, it needs to be replaced with a new one, but the model itself has been discontinued. If the production is resumed, the cost is relatively high. Just a few years ago when India ordered the aircraft carrier from Russia, it chose the improved MiG-29K, because the Indian aircraft carrier has a small tonnage, the deck is short, and the heavy-duty carrier aircraft such as the Su-33 can only fly the light-weight rice. Ge-29, so the Indian investment saved the MiG-29K project. For the Russian Navy, the new MiG-29 is easy to use, and the aircraft is ready-made and cheap, so this temporary MiG-29 was carried on the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier. In fact, it was a practical investigation. As a result, MiG-29 took a test and failed. On the contrary, the Su-33 is now strong and strong. In the past few days, the Russian naval air force’s bombing of Aleppo has been using the Su-33 to complete the mission.
For the Russian Navy, the best choice for carrier aircraft will definitely continue to update the Su-33, but this will require more time and more funding. If the funds are not enough, then it will be hard to upgrade the MiG-29 with minor repairs, but this level of carrier aircraft is obviously not enough for a large oceanic navy.
In addition, there are human factors. Western media reported that the pilots of the NATO fighters who were monitoring the Russian fleet at the time not only saw the whole process of the crash, but also found that during the formation of the Russian formation, many Russian crew members were holding mobile phones. Play on the deck and take a selfie. But this is to come out to carry out combat missions. Obviously, the level of combat readiness is not high enough, and there is still a slack in discipline constraints. Therefore, the Russian Navy must revive, not only must have sophisticated equipment, but also have a well-disciplined and well-trained talent team.
