The Ka-28 is an export derivative of the Ka-27 anti-submarine warfare helicopter and is only used in Russia for training foreign pilots at Yeysk.The Ka-28 is easy to distinguish from a standard Ka-27 by additional fuel tanks fitted to the sides of the fuselage.

  • Radar-equipped Ka-31R 90 and Ka-27M 39, headed this year's air parade over Saint Petersburg on July 29, 2018. Ka-31R 90 is one of two (the other is 91) acquired by Russian Naval Aviation in 2012. Twelve such helicopters were listed for procurement in Russia's National Armament Program through to 2020 for basing at Severomorsk-1 (Northern Fleet) and Nikolayevka (Pacific Fleet). However, no information has been released on any further order. Ka-31R 90 was deployed to Syria on board the Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier between October 2016 and January 2017.

  • The Ka-29 is a ship-based helicopter designed for delivering assault troops from the ship to shore, and for providing fire support to marine infantry. Between 1984 and 1989, the Kumertau aircraft plant built 59 Ka-29s. For many years, Russian Naval Aviation neglected its Ka-29s, which stood abandoned on airfields following the break-up of the USSR. Today, Russian Naval Aviation has fewer than 20 airworthy Ka-29s in service, each of which has been restored to service as part of programme running since 2016. Ka-29s 38 and 39 assigned to the Yeysk training centre participated in the parade.

  • The US Air Force will upgrade all 31 of its operational Boeing E-3 Sentry Airborne Warning And Control System aircraft to Block 40/45 by November 2023. Currently, 17 E-3Gs are operating in Block 40/45 configuration. Previously, seven aircraft were planned to retire instead of upgrading them. Funding for expanding the programme to 31 aircraft had been included in the FY2019 budget request. In July, it was authorized by Congress in the conference report on the FY2019 National Defense Authorization Act.

  • Three Il-38N anti-submarine warfare aircraft, headed by 19 belonging to the Yeysk centre with 11 from the Northern Fleet's base at Severomorsk-1 and 23 from the Pacific Fleet's base at Nikolayevka. Aircraft 19 is now named after Radiy Papkovsky, who headed the Il-38 project for many years and died in 2014. The Il-38N is a mid­life upgrade version fitted with the Novella-P-38 mission system.

  • Tu-142MR strategic radio-relay aircraft, seldom seen in public, are intended to ensure a communications link between the national command in Moscow and commanders of strategic nuclear missile submarines. Externally, the aircraft features a VLF radio trailing wire antenna to connect submerged submarines deployed via a ventral pod. For the flypast, Tu-142MR 12 flew with the trailing antenna partly extended by 60m (200ft). The antenna trails by 7,680m (25,187ft) when fully extended with a stabilising cone attached to its end. Both Tu-142MR aircraft, 12 and 17, belong to an aviation squadron based at Kipelovo near Vologda, part of the Northern Fleet.

  • An autonomous air-to-air collision avoidance system is being considered for prioritization among potential upgrades to Lockheed Martin F-35 fighters. This would upgrade the F-35's current Manual Ground Collision Avoidance System (MGCAS), which requires pilot recovery action, and provides a capability to recover even when a pilot is incapacitated. This is similar to the Automatic Ground Collision Avoidance System (Auto-GCAS) that is being fitted to Lockheed Martin F-16C and F-16D fighters and is to be fitted to F-35s starting in 2019.
