Wikipedia tietää kertoa että Tartusin laivastotukikohdan käytöstä solmittiin sopimus Syyrian ja Neuvostoliiton välille vuonna 1971. LÄHDE
Eli hieman reilu 50 vuotta se on ollut ryssän käytettävissä, toki siihen on myös upotettu paljon rahaa erilaisten parannustöiden jne. muodossa.

MUOKKAUS: vilkaisin myös huvikseen, mitä kirjoitetaan ryssän käytössä olevasta Khmeimim lentotukikohdasta, lainaan pätkän wikipediasta spoilerin taakse: LÄHDE
Khmeimim air base was built in mid-2015 adjacent to the Bassel Al-Assad International Airport to serve as "the strategic center of Russian military intervention on behalf of the Syrian government in the Syrian Civil War (2011-present).[5] The existence of the Russian strategic base was revealed by the United States in early September 2015 and American officials expressed concern over the possibility of escalation of the conflict in Syria. The airbase became operational on 30 September 2015.[6][7][8]
On 26 August 2015, in Damascus, Russia and Syria signed a treaty that stipulates terms and conditions of use by Russia of Syria's Khmeimim Airport, free of charge and with no time limit.[9][10][11][12] The treaty, ratified by Russia's parliament and signed into law by president Vladimir Putin in October 2016, grants Russia's personnel and their family members jurisdictional immunity and other privileges as envisaged by Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.[13][14] The Syrian military is in charge of protecting the base perimeter, while the Russian side is responsible for air defense and internal policing of base personnel.[11] The treaty was amended by signing a protocol to the treaty on 18 January 2017.[15][16]
In late December 2017, Russia announced it had set about "forming a permanent grouping" at Khmeimim as well as at its naval facility in Tartus, after president Putin approved the structure and the personnel strength of the Tartus and Hmeymim bases.[17][18]

Within several months in 2015 new infrastructure was built: air-conditioned accommodation for approximately 1,000 people, an air traffic control tower, runway extensions, storage facilities, field kitchens, and refuelling stations.[citation needed] Supplies were flown in from Russia or shipped via Tartus harbour 50 km (31 mi) away.[citation needed] The base is reported to be capable of handling Antonov An-124 Ruslan and Ilyushin Il-76M transport aircraft; the deployed aircraft included Sukhoi Su-24Ms, Sukhoi Su-25s, and Sukhoi Su-34s, reconnaissance aircraft Il-20M as well as T-90 tanks, BTR-82 vehicles, artillery, with Mil Mi-24, Mi-28, Ka-52 gunships and Mil Mi-8 support helicopters.[19]
After the 24 November 2015 shootdown of a Su-24M, a S-400 defensive missile system was installed, allowing Russia to defend the air space from Southern Turkey to Northern Israel.[citation needed]
At the end of January 2016, Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jets started to be deployed.[citation needed] In February 2016, one Tupolev Tu-214R was reported to have been deployed.[20][21]

The Sixth Directorate of the Russian GRU reportedly operated a signals intelligence station by the airport.[22]

ELI kentän käytöstä solmittiin sopimus Syyrian ja Venäjän kesken vuonna 2015.
Sopimuksella ei ole takarajaa ja kentän käytöstä ei ryssän tarvitse maksaa mitään. Siellä työskentelevillä venäläisillä perheineen on diplomaattistatus ja siten suoja kaikenlaiselta "tavallista tallaajaa" koskevilta ikävyyksiltä.
Kiinnostava kommentti myös tuo että kentällä on ainakin sanottu olevan jonkinlainen GRU:n elektronisen tiedustelun asema (a signals intelligence station). Samaa on muistaakseni sanottu Tartuksen laivastotukikohdasta. Mietin, onko kyseessä EW-tiedustelu vai häirintä, mahdollisesti GPS-häirintä? Kenties molemmat, koska miksipäs ei?
Viimeksi muokattu:
. Toivottavasti ei.
