The AFU colonel has predicted a powerful blow, from which the Volga river could change its course.
The Engels-2 airfield has again been attacked by Ukrainian drones. Apart from the airbase itself, there are several other important and interesting targets for the Defence Forces near Engels.
By reaching ‘Engels-2’, Ukraine can destroy not only the aviation, but also some of the enemy's strategic reserves. Roman Svitan, a military expert, flight instructor and colonel of the AFU in reserve, said more about it in a military bulletin for Channel 24.
Why Engels Is an Important Target for the AFU
The Engels-2 airfield in Saratov region is about 600 kilometres from the border with Ukraine. The Russians store strategic aviation there, particularly the Tu-160 and Tu-95. There is also a special engineering service there that handles the Kh-101, Kh-555, and Kh-55 missiles.
Russia has also transferred tactical aviation to this airfield, in particular Su-34, Su-35, Su-24.
‘Engels is located on the left bank of the Volga River, as well as the Engels-2 airfield. There is a serious storage facility for aviation paraffin under the aerodrome - if you get to it, half of Engels will simply blow up in the air and the Volga will change its course,’ explained the flight instructor.
Moreover, a military unit, which is one of the depots of nuclear tactical weapons - Saratov-63 - is located south of Engels. This could also be an important target for the Defence Forces.
Right now, strikes targeting Engels or Saratov are only possible with Ukrainian-made drones, because Western missiles, which are in service in Ukraine, cannot reach there.
