Les K-8 sont au Soudan depuis quand???

En 2005 ils ont signé un contrat avec les chinois pour la livraison de 6 K-8, aujourd'hui il y a une 12aine en service.
C'est la première fois que je vois des K-8 soudanais avec le camo des 2 première photos ...

Moi aussi. j'croyais qu'ils ressemblaient à ceux de l'egypte...

Soudan: l'armée tue plus de 50 rebelles dans le sud

L'armée soudanaise a annoncé avoir tué vendredi "plus de 50 rebelles" durant des combats qui se sont déroulés dans l'Etat du sud Kordofan, à la suite d'une offensive menée par des groupes rebelles et qui aurait été repoussée par les forces gouvernementales, selon l’agence soudanaise officielle Suna.

Selon le communiqué de l'armée diffusé par Suna dans la nuit de vendredi au samedi, "plus de 50 rebelles ont été tués (…) les forces armées ont essuyé un certain nombre de martyrs et de blessés".

Les combats se sont déroulés à une quinzaine de kilomètres au sud de Kadougli, la capitale de l’Etat, selon la même source.

Le communiqué ajoute que l’offensive rebelle a été menée par des forces liées au Front révolutionnaire, une alliance établie en novembre 2011 entre quatre mouvements rebelles dont trois mènent un combat contre le gouvernement dans la région du Darfour (ouest) et la 4ème dans les deux Etats du Sud Kordofan et du Nil Bleu au sud du pays.

Situé le long de la nouvelle frontière avec le Soudan du Sud, le Kordofan-Sud, comme le Nil Bleu, est en proie depuis l'été 2011 à des combats entre l'armée soudanaise et des rebelles. Une partie de ces rebelles avait combattu au côté des Sudistes lors de la guerre civile (1983-2005) qui a abouti à la partition.

Des dizaines de milliers de familles de du Kordofan-Sud en sont réduites à se nourrir d'écorce et de feuilles, avait récemment déclaré un haut responsable de l'ONU cité par des diplomates.

Plus de 900.000 personnes ont été déplacées ou sévèrement affectées par le conflit au Kordofan-Sud et au Nil Bleu, selon l'ONU.

Dans ce contexte, les présidents soudanais Omar el-Béchir et sud-soudanais Salva Kiir se sont engagés le 5 janvier à Addis Abeba à fixer un calendrier pour relancer l'application d'accords essentiels, au point mort depuis trois mois, portant notamment sur le partage des ressources pétrolières.

Avec cette annonce est apparu l'espoir d'une avancée dans le règlement des graves différends entre les deux Soudans, financièrement exsangues depuis l'arrêt par le Soudan du Sud il y a un an de la production de pétrole, qui transite par les oléoducs du Soudan pour être exporté.

The navies of Sudan and Saudi Arabia have launched their first joint military exercises in the Red Sea, the official SUNA news agency reported on Sunday.

The training is to run until Wednesday and focus on anti-smuggling operations and “boosting security and stability”, SUNA quoted Sudan’s military spokesman Sawarmi Khaled Saad as saying.

Two Saudi naval vessels and troops are participating, he said.

The exercise comes after warships from Iran, with which Saudi Arabia has tense relations, docked at Port Sudan last October and December.

At the time, Saad described the Iranian port calls as part of normal military exchanges between the two states.

Israeli officials have expressed concern about arms smuggling through Sudan, and the visits by Tehran’s navy came after Khartoum accused the Jewish state of an October 23 air strike against a military factory in the capital.

The incident led to speculation that Iranian weapons were stored or manufactured there.

Israel refused all comment on Sudan’s accusation about the factory blast, while Sudan’s foreign ministry denied Iran had any involvement in the plant.

Army helicopter crash in Sudan kills 2 crew

A Sudanese military spokesman says a military training helicopter has crashed in the country's south, killing its two crew members.

KHARTOUM, Sudan —
A Sudanese military spokesman says a military training helicopter has crashed in the country's south, killing its two crew members.

Col. Sawarmy Khalid was quoted on Thursday by SUNA, Sudan's official news agency, as saying that the crash was an accident.

Khalid says the helicopter hit a high voltage electricity pole in Damzain in southeastern Sudan. Damzain is the capital of Blue Nile state. No further details were available.

The government in Khartoum has been facing an insurgency in the Blue Nile state and has accused its southern neighbor, South Sudan, of helping rebels there.

Sudan receives first Su-24 attack aircraft

Citation :

The Sudanese Air Force has increased its ground attack capabilities by acquiring Sukhoi Su-24 'Fencer' aircraft.

The acquisition has been confirmed by DigitalGlobe satellite imagery, which shows that the first Su-24 arrived at the Wadi Sayyidna (Seidna) Air Base north of Khartoum between 8 February and 18 March. Three of the distinctive swing-wing supersonic strike aircraft were visible at the air base in satellite imagery taken in June and August.

The presence of the Su-24s at Wadi Sayyidna was first reported by the Secret-difa3 blog on 18 August. The website said the aircraft had been recently retired by Belarus. Before the Belarusian Air Force announced the retirement in February, it listed 25 Su-24MK as being in its inventory, along with 12 Su-24MR reconnaissance variants.

Secret-difa3 also claimed that Belarus had begun delivery of a second batch of Su-25 'Frogfoot' attack aircraft to Sudan. The first batch was delivered in 2008-2010 and consisted of 15 aircraft, three of which were two-seat Su-25UB versions.

In a report released in February, the UN panel of experts that monitors the arms embargo on Darfur said Sudan had deployed some of its Su-25s to that region in contravention of Security Council Resolution 1591.

The Sudanese Air Force may now be in a position to redeploy these aircraft as it could use the superior speed of the Su-24s to carry out ground-attack sorties over Darfur from air bases outside the region.

The UN panel of experts report also included documentation showing that Belarus has shipped 3,998 S-8 air-to-ground rockets to Sudan in 2011; 2,748 were the S-8DM fuel-air-explosive version of the 80 mm rocket, the rest S-8KO anti-armour variants.

While the report said the rockets were intended to be used with Sudan's Su-25 aircraft, they could also be fired from the new Su-24s and other Soviet-designed jets and helicopters.

Sudan Adds Precision Bomber to Arsenal

DigitalGlobe imagery indicates that Sudan has acquired at least three Su- 24 (“Fencer”) supersonic precision bomber aircraft in recent months. The operational range of the Fencer is a little more than 600 kilometers, which would allow targeted air strikes from their current position in Wadi Seidna military air base into parts of Darfur, South Kordofan and Blue Nile states. (See Figure 1 for graphic on operational range.) The Fencer can also carry two external fuel pods that would extend the range and loiter time over a target area. The acquisition of aircraft with precision targeting capability could signal a change from rolling crude bombs out the door of an AN-24/26 transport to conducting targeted strikes.

As early as March 2013, one Su-24 bomber was parked in the engine testing apron in the operational area of Wadi Seidna, located 25 kilometers northwest of Khartoum. (See Figure 2.) Wadi Seidna supports most of Sudan’s fighter and bomber aircraft, i.e. Mig-29, Nanchang Q-5, SU-25, (probably non-operational MiG-23, MiG-17) and AN-24/26 transports. The positioning of Su-24 aircraft in the airbase’s operational area in June 2013 suggests the aircraft was already in use at that time. Since then the aircraft have been seen elsewhere in the operations area and later on a parking apron. (See Figure 3.) The appearance of one of the Su-24 on the runway with wings unswept suggests impending flight. Based on historic observations of Sudanese air force operations, Digital Globe Analytics concludes that initial technical checks and pilot proficiency training are probably underway. To date, three Su-24 aircraft have been observed at Wadi Seidna, most recently on August 24, 2013.

Media reports state that Belarus sold 12 Su-24 aircraft to Sudan with an “end user certificate” that prohibits using the aircraft in Darfur.1 Passed in 2005, UN Security Council Resolution 1591 prohibits the Government of Sudan from acquiring aircraft for use in Darfur. The measure does not, however, expressly prohibit arms sales for use in South Kordofan and Blue Nile states, where Sudan has consistently conducted aerial attacks.2 SSP and DigitalGlobe will monitor air bases in the south for future deployments of this aircraft.
