The most modern Russia’s spy plane TU-214R, accompanied by the multirole jet fighters Su-30SM, has been spotted in Syria.
The most advanced Russia’s reconnaissance aircraft TU-214R, escorted by the multirole jet fighters Su-30SM, was spotted in Syria’s Idlib province.
As the Flightradar24 data tracking website reported earlier, the reconnaissance plane TU-214R has arrived on the Hmeymim Russia’s air base in Syria.
Earlier, during the operation in Syria, the reconnaissance aircraft TU-214R, converted at the Kazan aircraft plant, has demonstrated high combat effectiveness, the Tatar Inform news agency reported. The Regnum news agency stressed that US officials admired the Russian TU-214R. They said that this aircraft gives “the Russians more opportunities to track US aircraft in Syria.”
The TU-214R is the converted conventional medium-range narrow-body passenger TU-214, which is produced only in the special option pack since April 2010. According to some sources, the production of the commercial version was stopped “due to unprofitability.”
The aircraft is equipped with the MRK-411 multi-frequency radio complex, the Fraktsiya high-resolution opto-electronics and other systems.
The war in syria is truly unimaginabely intense .Please keep up the crucial coverage.
Oh I wonder who they are looking for!

I hope they were able to pinpoint the SAS and Mossad agents on the ground for eradication. http://sana.sy/en/
