Russian Aerospace Forces

The Russian Aerospace Forces or Russian Air and Space Forces (Russian: Воздушно-космические силы, ВКС, romanized: Vozdushno-kosmicheskiye sily, VKS) comprise the air and space branches of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Russia established the VKS as a new branch of its military on 1 August 2015 with the merging of the Russian Air Force (VVS) and the Russian Aerospace Defence Forces (VVKO), as recommended by the Ministry of Defence. The VKS has its headquarters in Moscow. Russia's Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu explained the merger as improving efficiency and logistical support.

      How to contribute?

      All informations on all locations and organizations presented on the map can be edited by anyone via Wikidata, Wikipedia and OpenStreetMap websites. The only thing which is not possible to be edited by anyone is which organization and places are displayed on this map. Such selection is made by myself in order to filter and strengthen data.

      However once a location or organization is on the map, most of its data can be edited via links which can be found at the bottom of the left bar. Modifications are automatically integrated at a regular time (once per week).

      Here is a list of those attributes which can be edited:

      Description
      On its Wikipedia page, edit first paragraphs (those before any heading).
      Logo
