Our photoreporter, Joe Ciliberti, has recently been on a tour of two of the most important bases of the
Ukrainian Air Force.
Cordially invited by the Ukrainian AF Command in Kiev, the tour consisted of a visit to Air Force Base
A1789 in Vasylkiv, 30kms South of the Capital and home of 40th Fighter Aviation Brigade flying MiG29s.
This was followed by a splendid tour of UkAF base Starokostiantyniv, 250kms SW of Kiev and home of the
Su‐24 Fencer of the 7th Fighter Bomber Regiment.
