Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

ARMY Kubinka 2017

Post by bvdboomen »

It surprises me that there's no report of ARMY 2017 yet here on Scramble. It was a very, very great show with lots of planes. Being in Russia for the first time, it was just heaven for me. Almost all the aircraft that scared the hell out of me when I was a kid back in the 70's and 80's were present as well as the newest ones.

Nice stuff mate. Is it possible you can confirm the RF- numbers for the MiG-29 (20 blue), Ka-52 (93 yellow) and the Su-34 (17 red)? Many thanks

Very beautiful pictures! Thanks for sharing.

Unfortunately the scary part seems to be becoming real again. Now specially with the newer planes and a guy like Putin.

That would be RF-90844 for the Mig-29, RF-91123 for the Kamov and RF-95845 for the SU-34.

I would say that the idiot on the other side of the ocean is as much as scary (or more) than these guys! :?

But great pictures!

Thank you all for the comments gents!

Thanks Jim!
I think the Mi-26 will be too big to land in the GLV-V. The sand will go all the way to the runway of Eindhoven I guess! :D

I do not know that much of Russian military aviation so I was already glad that I had an An-30. :D
