En bref
Brigade d’aviation tactique volant sur Su-27 depuis Myrhorod, dans l’oblast de Poltava — l’arme de chasse lourde de la flotte d’avant les F-16, dispersée dans les premières heures de 2022 et maintenue en vol pendant les années où sa base a été frappée à répétition.

- État de la fiche
- Partiel
- Zone d’activité générale
- Dispersed fighter operations from airfields across unoccupied Ukraine; its published home base is Myrhorod. No current basing is authored.
- Historique notable
- The brigade that inherited the Soviet Su-27 regiment at Myrhorod and kept Ukraine's heaviest fighters flying through two decades of underfunding, the 2014 loss of a Crimean base and the full-scale war. Its aircraft were dispersed within hours of the February 2022 strikes and have flown air policing, interception of cruise missiles and, adapted for Western weapons, strike escort ever since — one of its commanders was among the war's first publicly named fighter casualties. Myrhorod has been struck repeatedly, which is the cost of a base whose name has been public for thirty years.
- Points forts
- The longest-ranged and best-armed airframes in the Soviet-era fleet, a dispersal discipline proven in 2022, and pilots with more combat hours against cruise missiles than any Western fighter force.
- Limites
- Airframes at the end of their lives with no spares production, a base under persistent strike, and a pilot pipeline that limits sortie rates more than aircraft numbers do.
