By the time of the reconnaissance, they spotted approximately 10 Su-30 fighters at the airfield. This means that the airfield in the village of Novofedorovka is important to the invaders as a platform for air operations. The partisan movement of Ukrainians and Crimean Tatars “Atesh” reported this on February 2 in Telegram.
Also at the airfield they discovered the location of air defense systems and a Kasta-2e2 type radar station. Ates emphasized that this indicates a high level of protection for the airfield. The partisans passed on all this and other information to the Ukrainian Defense Forces.
As you know, Russian fighters and bombers take off from the Saki airfield during missile attacks on Ukraine. This airport was also attacked by the Ukrainian Defense Forces. On January 6, the commander of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Nikolai Oleshchuk, announced a successful strike on the airfield.
Let us remind you that on January 31, the Ukrainian Defense Forces hit the Belbek airfield in occupied Crimea, used by Russian invaders. It was reported online that two missiles hit the command post of the 38th Fighter Aviation Regiment, and another missile attacked the airfield communications post. 10 Russian military personnel were liquidated, among them the commander of the Russian aviation squadron, Lieutenant General Alexander Tatarenko.
