Soviet aircraft carrier Kiev. Attraction:(
Kiev was a heavy aircraft carrying cruiser that served the Soviet and Russian navies from 1975 to 1993. It was built between 1970 and 1975 at Chernomorski factory in Mykolaiv and was the first ship of its class (Project 1143 Krechyet (Gyrfalcon) or Kiev class)
The Kiev was laid down on 21 July 1970 and launched on 26 December 1972. She was completed and commissioned on 28 December 1975, but officially entered service only in February 1977, after completing all trials. In 1976 she was moved from the Black Sea to her destination Severomorsk, as a part of the Northern Fleet.
On 16 July 1976 she left Sevastopol - 20.7.76 began testing the Yakovlev_Yak-36M (four Yak-36M and one Yak-36MU onboard) under sea conditions in the Mediterranean (off Crete). On 10.8.76 arrived in Severomorsk, Murmansk Oblast - attached to the 170th Anti-Submarine Warfare Brigade; 8.76 to 12.76 extensive tests in the Northern Fleet area; 12.4 to 19.4.77 took part in the Sever-77 exercise; 26.6.77 reclassified from PKR to TAVKR; 20.12.77 to 21.4.78 operations in the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean - 3.11.78 hit a sand bar, but suffered no damage; 4.8.78 took part in a local exercise; 11.10.78 final tests of the main missiles in the White Sea.
From 1977 to 1987, Kiev undertook 10 practice voyages to the Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. In March 1979 she undertook manoeuvres with her sistership Minsk on the Mediterranean. In October 1981 she was a flagship in the massive fleet exercise Zapad-81 on the Baltic Sea. From December 1982 to November 1984 she underwent an overhaul and modernization in Mykolaiv. From 1985, the practice of operating Yakovlev Yak-38s in STOL mode instead of VTOL was introduced, allowing an increase in aircraft payload and range, and a replacement of Kamov Ka-25 helicopters with Kamov Ka-27 started. In 1985 Kiev went back to the Northern Fleet. From 1987 she mainly stayed in Severomorsk. In December 1989 she was moved to reserve. After the disintegration of the USSR, the ship was taken by Russia. Due to a low military budget and worsening ship's condition, she was retired on 30 June 1993.
In 1996 she was sold to a Chinese company, and has been part of Binhai Aircraft Park, a military theme park in Tianjin since 1 May 2004. The concept design and master plan for the park was developed by tourism and attraction consultant Leisure Quest International (USA).
In August 2011, the ex-Kiev began welcoming guests as its new role as a luxury hotel after a refit costing £GBP9.6 million.
MAKS 2017 - Legendary IL-2 Returns to the skies! - HD 50fps
The famous Ilyushin Il-2 Sturmovik took back to the skies at the MAKS 2017 airshow, marking a glorious return for the WWII-era aircraft. This legendary Soviet ground attack aircraft was shot down in 1943 and fell through the ice on Krivoye lake, Murmansk region. The plane had been lying at the bottom of the lake for 70 years after it was shot down during the war.
The restorers made an amazing job and gave a second life to this IL-2 airframe, restoring it to flight status and making it become the second flying IL-2 in the world today.
With the support of ПАО «ОАК» and the Aviation Complex S.V. Ilyushin Foundation for the Preservation of Military Historical Planes Winged Memory of Victory («Крылатая память Победы»), the project to restore the historic aircraft was launched. Its restoration was carried out in Novosibirsk, at the first stage, in the workshops of Avia-Restoration («Авиареставрация»), and later in the facilities of the Siberian Scientific-Research Institute of Aviation (SibNIA, «СибНИА им. С.А. Чаплыгина»).
The plane was piloted by the test pilot and director of СибНИА himself, Vladimir Barsuk (Владимир Барсук).
The Ilyushin Il-2 Shturmovik (Cyrillic: Илью́шин Ил-2 Штурмови́к) was a ground-attack aircraft produced by the Soviet Union in large numbers during the Second World War. With 36,183 units of the Il-2 produced during the war, and in combination with its successor, the Ilyushin Il-10, a total of 42,330 were built, making it the single most produced military aircraft design in aviation history, as well as one of the most produced piloted aircraft in history along with the American postwar civilian Cessna 172 and the Soviet Union's own then-contemporary Polikarpov Po-2 Kukuruznik multipurpose biplane.
To Il-2 pilots, the aircraft was simply the diminutive Ilyusha. To the soldiers on the ground, it was the Hunchback, the Flying Tank or the Flying Infantryman. Its postwar NATO reporting name was Bark. The Il-2 aircraft played a crucial role on the Eastern Front. Joseph Stalin paid the Il-2 a great tribute in 'his own manner': when a particular production factory fell behind on its deliveries, Stalin sent an angrily worded cable to the factory manager, stating They are as essential to the Red Army as air and bread, and I demand more machines. This is my final warning!.

Sukhoi Su-15 FLAGON ___(Rare Videos)
Artist-song: Funabashi-Daylight____________
Sukhoi Su-15 (NATO reporting name 'Flagon') was a twin-engine interceptor aircraft developed by the Soviet Union in the 1960s to replace the Sukhoi Su-11.
As one of the V-PVO's principal interceptors, the Su-15 was involved in a number of incidents with foreign aircraft. One such attack was in 1978, when Korean Air Flight 902 was attacked over Murmansk by a PVO Su-15. Although the civilian aircraft survived the missile hit, two passengers were killed, and the damaged plane subsequently made a forced landing on a frozen lake. In 1981 a Baku, Azerbaijan-based Su-15 deliberately rammed an Iranian Canadair CL-44 after it strayed into Soviet airspace. More notorious was the Korean Air Flight 007 incident in 1983, when a Korean Boeing 747 was shot down by a Su-15TM based on Sakhalin, killing all 246 passengers and 23 crew .
Although it was produced in large numbers (1,290 of all types), the Su-15, like other highly sensitive Soviet aircraft, was never exported to the Warsaw Pact or any other country. Some Su-15 were deployed in Egypt in 1972 but were used with Soviet crews.
In Russia, the Su-15 was abruptly retired in 1993 to comply with the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe. Most were hastily scrapped in favour of more advanced interceptors, including the Su-27 'Flanker' and MiG-31 'Foxhound.' In Ukraine, the last Su-15s (at Kramatorsk and Belbek) were withdrawn from use in 1996.

Airplane WW2 Russian Ilyushin Il-4 Picture HD - WW2 Rusia Aeroplano Ilyushin Il-4 Imagen HD
En 1938 se desarrolló una versíón del Ilyushin DB-3 con una célula totalmente nueva, de fácil montaje. Su aspecto cambió radicalmente: el morro resultó más estrecho y aerodinámico y con una amplia superficie acristalada, y la torreta de proa del DB-3 fue sustituida por un montaje orientable. Las evaluaciones oficiales culminaron con éxito en junio de 1939 y a finales de ese mismo año el aparato ya estaba listo para su producción en serie.
La nueva versión fue conocida como Ilyushin DB-3F, pero fue posteriormente redesignada Il-4 cuando empezó a ser entregada en gran cantidad a los regimientos de bombardeo de la aviación de largo alcance, la ADD. Un pequeño número de estos aparatos tenían la misma torreta dorsal que el DB-3, pero ésta fue pronto reemplazada por otra de un diseño más eficaz. Además, el afuste anular artillado ventral fue sustituido a su vez por un equipo semirretráctil más complejo.
La producción en gran escala del Il-4 continuó hasta 1944, totalizándose 5.256 aparatos. El motor original M-87A fue sustituido en 1942 por un M-88B, más potente, con sobrecompresor de dos tiempos. La mayor parte de los aparatos construidos ese año tenían los largeros alares de madera debido a la escasez de aleaciones ligeras, aunque las piezas metálicas fueron reintroducidas en los últimos aparatos de serie.
En 1943 comenzaron los trabajos de desarrollo del Il-6, un bombardero avanzado equipado con cabina presurizada para la tripulación, capaz por tanto de operaciones a gran altitud, considerable aflechamiento en los bordes de ataque alares y propulsado por dos motores diésel Charomsky ACh-30b de 1.500 CV; no obstante el proyecto fue abandonado antes de que el prototipo llegase a volar.
In 1938 a version of the Ilyushin DB-3 with an entirely new cell, easy assembly was developed. His appearance changed dramatically: the nose was narrower, aerodynamic and with a large glazed surface, and the bow turret DB-3 was replaced by a swivel mount. Official evaluations successfully completed in June 1939 and later that same year the unit was ready for serial production.
The new version was known as Ilyushin DB-3F, but was later redesignated Il-4 when it began to be delivered in large quantities regiments bombing of long-range aviation, the ADD. A small number of these devices had the same dorsal turret DB-3, but this was soon replaced by another of a more efficient design. In addition, the annular ventral gun carriage gunship was replaced in turn by a more complex semirretráctil equipment.
The large-scale production of Il-4 continued until 1944, totalizándose 5,256 devices. The original M-87A engine was replaced in 1942 by an M-88B, more powerful, with two-stroke supercharger. Most of the devices were built that year the wooden wing spars due to the shortage of light alloys, although the metal parts were reintroduced in the last series devices.
In 1943 work began development of IL-6, an advanced bomber equipped with pressurized cabin crew, capable therefore of high-altitude operations, significant sweepback at the edges of wing attack and powered by two diesel engines Charomsky ACh-30b 1.500 CV; however the project was abandoned before the prototype came flying.

Kiev Aircraft Carrier Tianjin
4 Kiev class Aircraft Carrier/cruisers were built by the former Soviet Union in the 1970's. They are the Kiev, Minsk, Novorossiysk and Baku. Each ship had warship armaments including missiles with nuclear capability at the front, and at the side and back was the flight deck for fighter aircraft and helicopters. These ships saw active service during the 70's and 80's, finally coming to end in the early 90's. Two ships the Kiev and Minsk were bought by the Chinese, the Novorossiysk was scrapped and the Baku (renamed the Vikramaditya ) was sold to the Indian navy. Both the Kiev and Minsk have been converted into Theme parks in the city ports of Tianjin and Shenzhen.
Visiting the Kiev Aircraft Carrier is an eye-opening experience. It isn't often that one can view a real aircraft carrier close up. Personally I don't feel there is anything unusual in having a restored aircraft carrier as a theme park / museum. In the UK there is Nelson HMS Victory ship at Portsmouth, or HMS Belfast on the River Thames in London that people can visit.
Having the opportunity to view both the 'Kiev' aircraft carrier in Tianjin, and the 'Minsk' aircraft carrier *(another theme park) located in Shenzhen; I prefer the Kiev for 2 reasons. One - it is less touristy and two - there is more of the ship to see e.g. the missile room at the bow of the ship and the missile control centre.
To see the carrier it is best to catch a train from Tianjin to Tanggu and then by taxi travel north to Binhai military theme park.

Aircraft carrier
An aircraft carrier is a warship with a full-length flight deck and facilities for carrying, arming, deploying, and recovering aircraft, that serves as a seagoing airbase. Typically, it is the capital ship of a fleet, as it allows a naval force to project air power worldwide without depending on local bases for staging aircraft operations. It is extremely expensive to build and important to protect. Aircraft carriers have evolved from converted cruisers to nuclear-powered warships that carry numerous fighter planes, strike aircraft, helicopters, and other types of aircraft.
There is no single definition of an aircraft carrier, and modern navies use several variants of the type. These variants are sometimes categorized as sub-types of aircraft carriers, and sometimes as distinct types of aviation-capable ships. Aircraft carriers may be classified according to the type of aircraft they carry and their operational assignments. Admiral Sir Mark Stanhope, former head of the Royal Navy, has said that To put it simply, countries that aspire to strategic international influence have aircraft carriers.
