The media criticized the construction of a military airfield in Voronezh.

According to the Russian publication Voennoye Obozreniye, despite the fact that the construction of a military airfield in Voronezh has been going on since 2013, and 9,2 billion rubles have been allocated from the state budget for these purposes, the place for basing military aviation rather resembles a junkyard than a strategic military facility.

“We filmed our first two materials on the edge of the airfield closest to us. In principle, the picture was sufficient to draw conclusions that everything is bad. But even she did not give, it turns out, a complete picture of how sad everything really is. <…> If we go to the end of the strip, everything will be no less "joyful". The taxiways are at best covered with the first layer of gravel, at worst just sand. ", - reports the publication "Military Review", showing the relevant photos.

Actual, as experts note, the site is more like a dump of building materials than a full-fledged military facility, and, as experts note, even in the case of construction, it will take at least 5 years to complete all the works.
