Kyrgyz Air Force
The Kyrgyz Air Force — since 2006 formally the Air Defence Forces of the Kyrgyz Armed Forces — was built in 1992 from the wreck of the Soviet Union’s biggest foreign-pilot school at Kant and Frunze, sold or stored almost all of the hundreds of MiG-21s, L-39s and helicopters it inherited, and today flies a handful of Russian-supplied Mi-8, Mi-24 and An-26 aircraft beside a Russian air base, while the country’s Turkish armed drones belong to the border service rather than the air force.
The Kyrgyz Air Force story: a school for the world’s pilots, two foreign bases and helicopters on a Russian lifeline
1941–1991: Frunze, Kant and a school for the world’s pilots
Military aviation came to Kyrgyzstan by evacuation. In December 1941 the Odessa military aviation school of pilots, driven east by the German invasion, settled outside Frunze, today Bishkek; Wikipedia’s history of Kant records 1,507 pilots trained there during the war. In 1947 it became the Frunze Military Aviation School for Pilots, and in 1951 training regiments formed at Frunze-1 (the 714th) and Tokmok (the 716th), according to TechInformPress. From 1956 the school also trained foreigners — Hosni Mubarak and Hafez al-Assad among them — and in 1959 the 322nd regiment formed at Kant on MiG-15s, the date Kyrgyzstan still counts its Military Aviation Day from, every 18 August. By 1992 the 5th Central Courses based there had, by TechInformPress’s count, trained 21,682 specialists from 54 countries. It was a Soviet institution through and through, and that shaped what came next.
1992–1999: an inheritance too big to keep
In 1992 most of the permanent staff and training equipment of the 5th Central Courses left for Kurgan in Russia. What stayed behind was a large fleet without the people or money to fly it: TechInformPress lists about 80 MiG-21s, about 35 L-39s with some 40 more at Tokmok, 25 Mi-8s, about 35 Mi-24s and a few An-2, An-12 and An-26 transports. Wikipedia’s figures for 1996 are higher (about 100 MiG-21s, 96 L-39s, 65 helicopters). Most of it was sold: 23 MiG-21bis and four two-seaters went to Croatia in 1993–1994, about 15 Mi-8s to India, 19 MiG-21s to India in 2003. When the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan crossed into Batken in 1999, there was no combat jet to send: according to eyewitnesses cited by TechInformPress, Kyrgyz L-39 trainers flew bombing sorties and Uzbek Su-24s had to be called in. The founding date is itself untidy — Wikipedia gives 27 July 1992, the service celebrates 27 July for the 2006 reorganisation, and no founding decree was found.
2001–2014: two foreign bases, twenty kilometres apart
After 11 September 2001 Kyrgyzstan became a host rather than a flyer. On 16 December 2001 the United States opened a base beside Manas airport; renamed the Transit Center at Manas in 2009, it refuelled and moved the Afghan war, and Eurasianet counts 5.3 million service members from 26 countries passing through before it closed on 3 June 2014. Danish, Dutch and Norwegian F-16s flew combat missions from it in 2002–2003. Its politics were rough: parliament voted 78–1 to evict the Americans in February 2009, then accepted a new deal in June that raised the rent from about 17 million to 60 million dollars a year. Twenty kilometres east, Russia opened its 999th Air Base at Kant on 23 October 2003 under a bilateral agreement of 22 September 2003. Moscow presents Kant as part of the CSTO’s collective forces; a 2012 agreement extended the lease for 15 years in exchange, Wikipedia reports, for writing off 500 million dollars of Kyrgyz debt.
2006–2021: the Air Defence Forces and the Russian lifeline
In the second half of 2006 Kyrgyzstan merged its aviation and air defence units into a single service, the Air Defence Forces (Sily vozdushnoy oborony); its anniversary falls on 27 July. It was a small force living on Russian help. TechInformPress records two Mi-24Vs returned after repair in Russia in 2016, two An-26s delivered in August 2017 and two Mi-8s in April 2019, and says that by 2019 four Mi-8s, two Mi-24s and three L-39s were flyable. Two Mi-8s were lost in accidents in July 2014 and July 2018. At the 60th anniversary parade on 16 August 2019, Mir 24 reported, Mi-8MTs, An-26s and Su-25s flew; Kyrgyzstan has no Su-25s of its own, and the Russian Kant base, whose personnel attended, flies the type. FlightGlobal’s 2025 directory, as tabulated by Wikipedia, lists two An-26s, three Mi-8MTs, two Mi-17V-5s and two Mi-24Vs — no fixed-wing combat aircraft at all.
2021–2026: border wars, drones and a treaty
The fighting on the Tajik border changed what Kyrgyzstan bought, though not for the air force. In the April 2021 clash over a water intake near Kök-Tash, Kyrgyzstan reported 36 dead and Tajikistan 19; a Carnegie Moscow Center commentary, citing video, said Tajik Mi-24s fired rockets, and no Kyrgyz air role was reported. In December 2021 the border service, under the State Committee for National Security since 2020, received Bayraktar TB2s. In the September 2022 fighting Human Rights Watch documented armed drones on the Kyrgyz side and a laser-guided bomb that killed at least ten civilians at Ovchi Kal’acha; Tajikistan blamed a TB2, Kyrgyzstan called the fighting Tajik aggression, and each side blamed the other for starting it. Akinci and Aksungur drones followed on 28 October 2023. The two governments agreed their border in February and March 2025. What remains is a small helicopter force, strong air defence help from Russia, and armed drones in another ministry’s hands.

How the Kyrgyz Air Force is organised
Since 2006 the Air Defence Forces of the Kyrgyz Armed Forces, with headquarters in Bishkek, combining a small aviation arm and ground-based air defence from the S-75 to the S-300PS. FlightGlobal’s 2025 directory, as tabulated by Wikipedia, lists two An-26s, five Mi-8s and Mi-17s and two Mi-24Vs and no combat aircraft; the Su-25s over Kyrgyzstan belong to the Russian base at Kant. The country’s Bayraktar TB2, Akinci and Aksungur armed drones belong to the border service of the State Committee for National Security, not to the air force.
Air Defence Forces
In Bishkek per Wikipedia: aviation and air defence were merged into one service in the second half of 2006, which marks 27 July. Col. Kylychbek Aidaraliev, appointed in January 2017 per 24.kg as cited by Wikipedia, is the latest confirmed commander; no official page naming the holder in 2026 could be reached.
Air Defence Forces aviation
Three Mi-8MTs, two Mi-17V-5s, two Mi-24Vs and two An-26s in FlightGlobal’s 2025 directory as tabulated by Wikipedia, and no fixed-wing combat aircraft. Where they are based is not settled: Wikipedia says all military aircraft are at Kant, while ww2.dk has the Kyrgyz unit moving to Frunze-1 in 2003.
999th Air Base (Russian Aerospace Forces)
Russian, not Kyrgyz: opened on 23 October 2003 under a bilateral agreement and flying Su-25SM attack aircraft, Mi-8MTV-5-1 helicopters and Orlan-10 drones as of February 2023, per Wikipedia. Moscow presents it as part of the CSTO’s collective forces; a 2012 lease runs for 15 years from 2017.

Where the Kyrgyz Air Force flies from
黒色のピンは現役の基地、中空のピンは閉鎖された飛行場を表しています。. Kant, about 20 kilometres east of Bishkek, has been shared with Russia’s 999th Air Base since 2003; Manas, the US base from 16 December 2001 to 3 June 2014, is the civil airport again. Tokmok was a Soviet training field and a Kyrgyz storage base until 2001, whether Kyrgyz military aircraft still use Frunze-1 is not confirmed, and Osh is listed as a candidate, not a confirmed air base. Entries with no published aerodrome data carry no pin.
