PAK FA T 50 fighters flying in three formation in 2013

Re: Military Notebook: Military Discussions

It is two years since PAK-FA T-50's were flying in three formation in 2013. It is interesting how many did the Russians built by now even though they are under economical senctions?

New Satellite Image unveils an impressive line-up of 12 Russian Su-25 Frogfoot attack jets in Syria and four Russian Air Force Su-30SM multirole combat planes














A new impressive satellite image has just been released.

It shows at least 12 Su-25 Frogfoot attack planes lined-up on the secondary runway at al-Assad airbase near Latakia, the same airfield hosting the four Russian Air Force Su-30SM multirole combat planes.

It looks like the Frogfoots, the Russian aircraft most suitable for Air Interdiction and potential Close Air Support missions against ISIS have eventually arrived in Syria.

They will operate alongside the Su-24 Fencer jets spotted trailing an Il-78/76 plane over Homs on Sept. 20 (not visible in the latest satellite snapshots).

According to the most recent reports, as many as 28 Russian planes have already been deployed to Syria. The question is: where are those not exposed by satellite imagery yet.

This is not the first time the Su-25 is deployed in the region to fight IS militants: on Jul. 1, 2014 seven Frogfoot attack planes operated by the Pasdaran (informal name of the IRGC – the Army of the Guardians of the Islamic Revolution) deployed to Imam Ali Airbase, in Iraq, to join the ex-Russian Air Force Su-25s already delivered to Iraq in the air war against ISIS (Al Qaeda-linked Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant).

The air going over the top of the wings & canards is slowed down compared to the air going under the wings because it travels farther. The white misty air are vortexes created when the slower air swirls as it passes a specific point. This happens at a variety of points on plane surfaces as the dynamics of trans sonic/super sonic flight constantly changes airflow speed over various surfaces.
Why the air becomes "misty" because of dramatic air flow speed changes and created vortexes , I don't know. But if you could color enhance the slowed air going over top of wings and the vortexes created at certain spots, it would exactly coincide with the mist you see.
