Bagram. Panjshir operation

Ahmad Shah controlled the Panjshir Gorge. It was located north of Kabul, began at20 km from Bagram. AhmadShah graduated from the Military Academy in England. He was educated, enjoyed great prestige among his fellow tribesmen. Before us, our troops tried to take Panjshir in the spring. The pilots we replaced also took part in this. They then lost 2 crew. The Mi-8 was shot down while performing a landing landing method and the Mi-24 while assisting the downed crew. Significant losses were also among the ground troops. However, part of the gorge was captured, and they held it until the settlement. Anava and a little further up to 30 km. In mid-August, preparations began for an operation to further capture Panjshir, as Ahmad Shah's refuge was briefly called. Both squadrons of our regiment were transferred to the Bagram airfield - one of the largest airfields built by the Americans in Afghanistan, which could receive aircraft of all types. The runway was in perfect condition. Two squadrons flew in from Jalalabad. A separate helicopter squadron and 2 units of the new generation Su-25 attack aircraft, which were undergoing military tests in combat conditions, were also based at the airfield. MiG-21 fighters also participated in the operation. It could be said that Bagram was the largest air base of the Soviet Air Force at that time. Upon arrival in Bagram, there were, as always, classmates from the school. I met Volodya Gul, with whom we studied together in the same class department. He had been here for a whole year in the local part. Also, like me, he flew as a commander of the Mi-24. The evening was not without a feast. I didn’t drink much at that time, but my leader, who also met acquaintances, “took on his chest” so much so that the next morning the regiment commander removed our couple from flying. I had to go on duty in the module in which we were placed.

The operation began with a bombing attack on fortified areas. Even volume bombs were used. Airplanes worked first, then helicopters. Not to mention the artillery, which struck before the aircraft took off. They especially tried to destroy enemy air defense systems. This time they took into account the previous mistakes, and in order to avoid large losses, they did not carry out a large-scale landing. They decided to take the Panjshir gradually, and not all at once, as is customary in Russia. Two days later, we were finally allowed to take off. So I wanted to visit this famous gorge, which everyone was afraid of. We flew there as part of a link to support ground troops. They acted on the command of air controllers who were in the advanced units of the troops. In the link, I flew the fourth wingman, and, as my predecessors said, the wingman crews were more often shot down. So we were all on our guard. We loaded 2 blocks of NURSs, then we had S-5 shells, 32 shells in each block, suspended 2 high-explosive fragmentation bombs of 100 kg caliber, designed to destroy enemy manpower. With such a warhead, we then flew on all missions. As part of a link on a call, they flew to support the troops in the gorge, where our troops, making their way with battles, captured more and more new positions. In flat terrain, we climbed up to 4000 meters, and then flew towards the gorge. Before us, helicopters flew at extremely low altitude, but such flights had to be abandoned so as not to be hit by small arms fire and reduce crew losses. In our time, we often flew at high altitudes. When approaching the position of the troops, the leading link established radio contact with the aircraft controller, we stood in a circle, covering each other at a distance of 800-900 meters, one helicopter from another. Ground troops designated themselves as smoke bombs or front line troops. Then the aircraft controller on the radio gave us target designation to find the enemy. In this operation, the spirits were in places inaccessible even to artillery. Therefore, at the command of the aircraft controller, we had to work out these places. The leader of the link began to work, then we, the followers, did not forget to cover the leader, and the leaders - us when we were on a combat course. This tactic was used during World War II by Il-2 attack aircraft. In the first run, we got rid of the bombs, then fired from the nurses. Wherever you send them, they flew there, but in the mountains, as practice later showed, there was no sense from NURSs and bombs. Mountains cannot be destroyed by anything. The bombs rolled down and then exploded. It was not so easy to hit the enemy. But, as the ground officers told us, when we circled over them, it was easier for them. The militants stopped firing at them. So we took turns in links and were above the positions of our troops. A day had to perform 3-4 sorties with breaks for refueling and loading ammunition. We did all this, as they say, by the crew.

On this flight, we flew with our political officer, Major V.A. Goloshchapov. as a leading link. They took the established height above the positions of the troops. The air controller indicated the target for which we had to work out. Our political officer, like everyone else, mostly small in stature, was too choleric. He was twitchy and pulled others. When you fly with him, something is sure to happen. He was too executive beyond measure. The leader made 3 calls and we were with him, but he could not find the target in any way. In aviation, it is customary to work only after the leader of the group. I saw this target perfectly and, like a fool, gave the command to my pilot-operator to drop bombs, but he, as always, missed. The bombs exploded 100 meters from our troops. There was such a hubbub on the air that we were immediately returned to the airfield. Well, I think, now after landing they will shackle them. Lucky no one got hurt. The analysis ended with the fact that we were banned from bombing. My operator, Volodya Makarov, was from DOSAAF, besides, from the Old Believers, it seems. He joined the army for financial reasons. He did not have much passion for flight work. However, he didn't drink or smoke. A natural materialist, but fate brought him to Afghanistan, and here he turned around in the small business.

The next day, we again flew in the same group to support the troops. According to target designation, they worked out one of the peaks of the gorge, where the militants settled. We've used up all our ammunition. And then the leader led us to the area of ​​the gorge, not yet occupied by our troops. We stood in a circle, I remember, I had an altitude of 3700, suddenly they told me on the radio that a rocket had been launched at me. And then I remembered God: if there is a GOD, then we must stay alive. He himself made an anti-missile maneuver, since the height allowed. Then, when we landed at the airfield, the guys told us that the rocket flew past and exploded in the clouds above us. I myself did not observe this. What saved us, I don't know.

The Panjshir operation lasted about 2 weeks. As a result, our troops won another 50 km of the gorge and stopped there. The soldiers of Ahmad Shah did not let them go further. This time, the losses among the troops were minimal, only one MiG-21 was shot down directly above the Bagram airfield. The enemy hit where they did not expect. Such was the war in Afghanistan. The portable rocket hit the engine nozzle directly, the pilot ejected from the plane. The parachute with the body landed 500 meters from the airfield runway. While ours got to the catapult, the Afghans dragged away the body of the pilot. For a downed plane or helicopter, especially for the body of a pilot, the Afghans were paid, as we were told, up to $5,000. They carried away the body along the kiryaz - underground channels through which water is supplied to the fields in the hot season. In flat terrain, they are dug near many settlements. Often, using these underground communications, militants secretly attacked military units. It happened this time as well. Since the catapult was covered in blood, everyone understood that the pilot was dead. It was Sasha from Chernigovka from our neighboring fighter-reconnaissance regiment. The body was never found, and the Afghans did not extradite him. Until now, he is listed as missing, although this happened in front of hundreds of people.

After the operation was completed, we flew to our airfield. In the future, every year ours tried to take this gorge, but no one managed to advance more than 50-80 km. They say there were large deposits of lapis lazuli and something else. We didn't know, and still don't know. And Ahmad Shah, although he was an adversary, enjoyed tacit authority among ours, if only because he did not allow bullying of captured military personnel. Everyone respects the strong and unshakable. He was one of those.

Bagram

Bagram(also Begram, before Kapika or Kapisa; Bagram) is an ancient city (Alexandria of the Caucasus) and a major airport 60 kilometers northwest of Kabul in the Afghan province of Parwan.

Bagram is a city with an ancient history. It has been known since the time of the Bactrian kingdom.

During the years of the Afghan war (1979-1989) the largest airport and air force base of the USSR Air Force. Near the city of Bagram there was a military garrison consisting of various military units and subdivisions of the 40th Army of the Armed Forces of the USSR, from 1979 to 1989. The Bagram garrison and the military airfield were from time to time shelled by dushmans (mujahideen) from dense plantations of grapes, which grew abundantly throughout the valley, and from the nearby mountains, especially from the side of the Panjshir Gorge, in connection with which the garrison suffered losses in manpower and equipment . Since 2002 it has been used by the US Air Force (see Bagram Air Base). The 3,000-meter runway was built in 1976 and is capable of receiving heavy transport aircraft and strategic bombers. Bagram Air Base has three large hangars, a control tower and a significant number of technical buildings. Five taxiways lead to the runway, and the total number of aircraft simultaneously located at the base can reach 110. Currently (2010), the 455th Expeditionary Wing of the US Air Force is based in Bagram.

Probably every adult man and most women in the country are well aware that the 345th (Airborne) regiment is legendary. Fame became widespread after the release of the cult feature film by F. Bondarchuk "9th Company", which poignantly told about the battle near Khost, where the 9th Airborne Company of this regiment heroically died.

Start

The regiment was finally formed on New Year's Eve, December 30, when almost six months remained before the Great Victory. Forty-fourth, the town of Lapichi near Mogilev in Belarus, liberated and tormented by the Nazis. It was from here that Regiment 345 (Airborne Forces) went on the paths of war. The regiment was originally a rifle regiment - based on the Fourteenth Guards Airborne Brigade.

The final renaming took place in June 1946. From July of the same year until 1960, the 345th (VDV) regiment was stationed in Kostroma, after, until December 1979, in Ferghana, joining the 105th Guards Airborne Division.

Continuation

Already in 1946, the regimental banner carried with honor Until the end of the victorious year, the regiment guarded the peace of Hungary. For the high level of military training, the Minister of Defense of the USSR awarded Regiment 345 (VDV) with a pennant "For Courage and Military Valor". The regiment practically did not see this world, constantly being in the hottest spots of the country and the planet.

In total, from 1979 to 1998, the regiment, without interruption for a single day, participated in various armed conflicts and wars, and so eighteen years and five months passed. Then, on December 14, 1979, no one knew about it yet. With the status of "separate", the 345th airborne regiment, Bagram, also receives a new assignment.

Afghanistan

Soviet troops had not yet entered this neighboring country, and the second battalion was already helping the 111th Guards Airborne Regiment to guard the Bagram airfield. Our military transport helicopters and planes were based there. The ninth company in the amount of eighty people at the end of December 1979 had already stormed Amin's palace (as part of the Fortieth Army). In 1980, unparalleled heroism and courage earned another award - the Order of the Red Banner.

Retrofitting

In the spring of 1982, new equipment came to 3 Bagram. Afghanistan did not win back until our troops left the country. In 2002, the Americans began to use the airfield built by the powerful Soviet efforts and our largest military base.

The new landing equipment of the early eighties was more adapted to partisan operations in the mountains. BMD landing) did not interfere with fragments of mines, and regular BTR-70 and BMP-2 well protected the airborne soldiers sitting inside. The 345th Airborne Regiment in Afghanistan was pleased with the new equipment, despite the fact that they loved the old car very much - powerful, maneuverable and fast.

no longer parachute

The staff structure of the unit also changed for the better: the regimental weapons received an effective means of firepower - a howitzer division (D-30) and a tank company (T-62). It was practically impossible to land with parachutes here - the mountainous terrain was too difficult, therefore, as unnecessary, landing support in the form of airborne service units was removed.

The enemy did not have aviation and armored vehicles, therefore, both the anti-aircraft missile and anti-tank batteries went where they were needed: to cover the columns on the marches from Bagram and to Bagram. The 345th Airborne Regiment thus became more like a motorized rifle regiment.

Revisiting the album

The tasks during the hostilities in Afghanistan were of a very different nature: the soldiers guarded the roads and directly the motorcades on the way, cleared the mountainous areas, set up ambushes, went on raids, both individually and in support of the "Commandos" and "KHAD", helped the units government police ... What can be seen in the photo albums of those years? Here in the photo - 345 Airborne Regiment. Kunduz. The fighters smile, seemingly serenely, but their weapons, if not in their hands, then close, close ...

Looking at the photographs, you understand how much dangerous work, requiring the utmost professionalism, was carried out by the fighters. Here is another page. Again 345 Airborne Regiment. Bagram (Afghanistan). The photo does not convey even the smallest fraction of the dangers that fighters lay in wait every minute for a long and bloody nine years. Nine years of daily losses. It's good that the 345th Airborne Regiment managed to take photos and managed to save them. Amazing inner composure in poses, at first glance, calm, even relaxed. Years later, many want to figure out why the victory did not come. Such strong people in the photographs. Confident and very, very beautiful. And high, dizzying mountains around.

Work

Any military operation in the highlands has a fifty-fifty chance of success. A frontal offensive is possible only in certain directions. Artillery, no matter how ironed the nearby mountains, rarely justifies the effort. It is necessary to radically change both tactics and forms of maneuver. The main thing is to capture all the dominant heights. For this, there is a helicopter landing where there is little help from the "bypassing" detachments, which most often do not reach the goal, because sheer cliffs stand in their way, then insurmountable gorges gape.

Detours and paths are long and dangerous to look for. Alpinist units would have helped, but there were none in the 345th Airborne Regiment. they checked the Soviet paratroopers in all respects: endurance, psychological stability, strength, endurance, mutual assistance - everything turned out to be in place. At altitudes of 3-4 thousand meters, reconnaissance was carried out for 2-3 weeks, on foot, with a load of 40 kilograms on each back, with a complete ambiguity of the situation. When you don't know when and where to expect an attack. For a week in the mountains, paratroopers lost up to 10 kilograms of their own weight.

Whose war is this?

In April 1978, Afghanistan was shaken by a revolution that brought the PDPA party to power, which immediately proclaimed socialism in the Soviet version. The US, of course, did not like it. Mohammad Taraki was elected the leader of the country, and his comrade-in-arms, even his closest one, Hafizullah Amin, who graduated from a university in the United States, became prime minister. Taraki asked L. Brezhnev to send troops. But the General Secretary of the CPSU was a kind man, but cautious. He refused.

Probably, it was necessary to be bolder in defending their interests in neighboring territories. The experience was acquired - heavy and terrible. By order of Amin, Taraki, who was a great friend of Brezhnev, was first arrested, then strangled. By the way, immediately after he was arrested, the USSR Secretary General personally asked Amin to save Taraki's life. But Amin had already enlisted the support of the United States by that time and was not going to follow the lead of his closest neighbor.

chagrin

Brezhnev was upset to the core. Therefore, on December 12, 1979, at a meeting of the Politburo, the question of the situation in Afghanistan was raised. The decision to use the Soviet armed forces in this war was supported by Gromyko, Ustinov and Andropov. Agarkov and Kosygin opposed. By a majority of votes, the start of the war was laid.

Here, as if in parentheses, that is, in a whisper, it must be admitted that since July 1979, troops have been quietly transferred to Afghanistan: KGB special forces and the Airborne Forces, for example, including the Alpha, Zenit, Thunder units .. And even the "Muslim Battalion" began to explore Afghanistan by autumn.

The 345th Airborne Regiment was sent there as one of the first landing units. And on December 25, 1979, the troops of the USSR had already openly crossed the state border into Afghanistan. Literally two days later, Amin's residence was stormed, and he himself was killed. In these battles, the regiment suffered its first losses. Eight guardsmen of the 345th Airborne Regiment will never hug their relatives again. These losses were not the last ...

Sanctions

Like the Olympics in our country, so the war in the neighborhood is traditional. As early as January 2, 1980, the US began sanctions over the war in Afghanistan. One of them was the refusal to participate in the Olympics-80. One hundred and four member states of the UN supported the sanctions. Only eighteen - no.

And in Afghanistan, a leader loyal to the USSR appeared - the United States, of course, did not leave it like that. Already in February, uprisings against the PDPA broke out one after another in Afghanistan. Money (and more often promises) plus a crazy herd - that's the uprising ready. And then the massacre began. Bloody nine years and two months. Only on February 11, 1989, the 345th (VDV) regiment left Afghanistan.

Phoenix rising from the ashes

On April 13, 1998, by order of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation 345 (VDV), the regiment was disbanded. The combat banner and awards are stored in the Central Museum of the Armed Forces. Copies were handed over to Nowhere, and having never dropped the honor of the Soviet army, observing all military traditions and faithfully, regardless of life and death, performing all combat missions, the glorious 345th Airborne Regiment was disbanded, not even allowing it to set foot on its native land. Sixty-four kilometers remained to Russia.

The memory will never fade. In many cities, veterans of the Airborne Forces have created organizations to prevent this from happening. Honor the 345th Airborne Regiment Novosibirsk, Ryazan, Moscow, many cities of Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, all territories of the former Soviet Union.

More recently, V. Shamanov confirmed that the airborne troops will receive a newly formed separate assault brigade, numbered 345 - in honor of the legendary parachute regiment, which has more than seventy years of history. The formation will end in 2016 in Voronezh.
