Yesterday we have conducted the first large scale airstrike in Syria, as per Putins (post airliner attack) directive. In that attack we have used:
- 5 Tu95SM bombers.
- 6 Tu160 bombers.
- 12 Tu22M3 bombers.
- 8 Su34 bombers.
- 4 Su27SM fighters.

Infographic:



The Tu95SMs and Tu160s launched 34 cruise missiles, Tu22M3s and Su34s conducted bomb strikes. This large scale airstrike was conducted from Russian soil. Some of the Su34 sorties were tasked with destruction of oil transportation assets, 410 oil tankers were destroyed.
Further such air strikes are expected. Our Navy grouping in the area (centered on the Slava class cruiser Moscow) was ordered to cooperate with French Navy as they would with an ally, to plan and prepare for joint operations.

We have also concentrated an orbital grouping to improve our intel gathering capabilities, with 10 IMINT and ELINT/SIGINT satelites in orbits centered on ME. We plan to keep expanding this grouping.
