Ilyushin Il-76 Candid/Soviet VDV Airborne Operations

[Vanyaaynav]

Newsreel of 1970, Il-76 and now the good reliable and modernized plane which can fly up from unprepared soil runways. As in it(this) video are shown the Soviet parachuters jumping with parachutes D-6, this also reliable parachute system....

Impressive equipment those Russian's have. They would have put up a formidable fight up if the cold war had kicked off. One thing I have noticed about Russians is the simplicity of their equipment and the harshness of their training, they look hard as fuck.

[mishacol]

@ginhater1 right. Military equipment was simple for in case of American invasion everyone from a kid to oldman could use it against invaders. Now Russian military suck, they can't even find locations without GPS.

@ginhater1 yeah, Plus it makes them look more Badass than the USAF by the way they are deployed :D!!!!!

[AHighPwner]

[WALancer]

@WALancer

This video is from the 1970's. Back then the Soviet Unions military was 3 times larger than the US. The soviet technology was as good if not better than the American stuff. The Soviet Ground forces were the first to use an unexposed gunner on a APC. The US caught up with that in the 1980's. 20 years after the Russians made it.

[RusWehrmacht]

Very intressting indeed, thank you for uploading. Those IL-76 are quite old, dating all the way back to 1971.

[Iggy82xl]

The only newer US transport plane is C-17 Globemaster, and it's from the 90's. C-5 Galaxy is old as IL-76. The major part of the air transport fleet is consisting of the very old and venerable C-130 Hercules that is more than 60 years old.

Age has nothing to do with usefulness and reliability if the machines are properly maintained.

[RusWehrmacht]

Im not saying it is. Im just saying the histrocial part lol. Good point your a rigth the first C-130 model was apparently introduceed in about 1956.
