Four Su-24s, accompanied by an Il-78 aerial tanker, arrived at Hmeimim from the Taganka airbase near Astrakhan. Thus the Hmeimim airgroup now consists of the following:
4 Su-35S
4 Su-30SM
4 Su-27SM
12 Su-34
32 Su-24
12 Su-25
15 Mi-8
12 Mi-24
1 Tu-214R
Images of the Ka 52 were noticed in videos of the base, but these are not mentioned.
They may well still be there, but there is no reliable information on their Syria activities.
Thank you J. If they are still in the theatre, I hope Russia will find it worthwhile to give them a baptism in fire and be able to correct any problems before selling them to Egypt.
