The Baku Air Defence Army ((ロシア語:Бакинская армия ПВО)) was formed on the Eastern Front of World War II, following the decree of the USSR State Defense Committee of April 5, 1942. Previously known as the Baku Air Defence Corps, its main objective became sheltering the Baku oil fields from German raids. The Wehrmacht had been planning the capture of the oil field under the codename Operation Edelweiss. During the intense German air reconnaissance in May–October, 1942 the Army included the 8th Air Defence Fighter Corps, seven anti-aircraft regiments, one anti-aircraft machine-gun regiment, a searchlight regiment, a barrage balloon regiment and some other units. During its actions, the Army downed eight aircraft.〔(【引用サイトリンク】script-title=ru:Действующая армия... не знала трудностей с нефтепродуктами )〕 Successor Soviet air defence formations in the Transcaucasus region included the Baku Air Defense District of the Soviet Air Defence Forces (PVO), which was founded in 1945 on the basis of the Baku Air Defense Army. In 1948 the District was transformed into a zone/area. From 1954 it was redesignated a District again, until it was abolished on 5 January 1980. It was intended to cover from air attack in Baku and Absheron peninsula oil districts.〔http://aviabaza-meria.ucoz.ru/forum/100-59-1., and the District is referred to in Viktor Suvorov, Inside the Soviet Army, Hamish Hamilton, 1980〕 Commanders Baku Air Defense District from 1954-1956 included Colonel-General Konstantin Vershinin, 1956-1959 - Colonel-General V. D. Ivanov, 1959-1966 - Colonel-General A. F. Shcheglov, 1966-1973 - Colonel-General F. A. Olifirov, 1973-1980 - Colonel-General A. W. Konstantinov. After the abolition of the Baku District, the main PVO formation in the Trancaucasus became the 19th Army of PVO headquartered in Tblisi. 19th PVO Army consisted a number of different units and formations. There were two Corps of Air Defence Forces (14, later renamed 96th Air Defence Division, and 51, activated March 1960 as 12th Air Defence Corps) two divisions of air defence forces (97th and 10th).〔http://www8.brinkster.com/vad777/sssr-89-91/pvo/19-kavkaz.htm, accessed June 2010〕 Smaller units included three SAM brigades, a separate SA-2 regiment near Gudauta, Abkhazia, a separate SA-5 regiment near Tblisi, at least two radar units,〔(Centre for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies via PVO.ru )〕 and a number of fighter aviation regiments (see List of Soviet Air Force bases). ==1988 partial order of battle== In 1988, 10th Air Defence Division consisted of:〔Michael Holm, (10th Air Defence Division ), accessed March 2012〕 *Headquarters, Volgograd *393rd Guards Fighter Aviation Regiment PVO (Privolzhskiy, Astrakhan Oblast), 38 МиГ-23 - renamed 209th Fighter Aviation Regiment, with Su-27, MiG-23 in October 1992.〔Michael Holm, (393rd Fighter Aviation Regiment PVO ), accessed March 2012〕 *54th Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade (Volgograd, Volgograd Oblast) *631st Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment (Novolesnyy (), Astrakhan Oblast) *466th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment (Kamyshin, Volgograd Oblast) *815th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment (Groznyy, Checheno-Imgushskaya ASSR) *93rd Radio-Technical Regiment (Astrakhan, Astrakhan Oblast) In 1988, 12th Air Defence Corps consisted of:〔Michael Holm, (12th Air Defence Corps ), accessed March 2012〕 *Headquarters, Rostov-on-Don *83rd Guards Fighter Aviation Regiment PVO (Rostov-on-Don, Rostov Oblast) 40 МiG-25 (потом МиГ-31) *562nd Fighter Aviation Regiment PVO (Krymsk, Krasnodar Kray), 35 Su-27 *80th Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade (Novorossiysk, Krasnodar Kray) *93rd Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade (Rostov-na-Don, Rostov Oblast) *879th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment (Tuapse, Krasnodar Kray) *1244th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment (Volgodonsk, Rostov Oblast) *7th Radio-Technical Brigade (Rostov-na-Don, Rostov Oblast) *77th Radio-Technical Regiment (Ordzhonikidze, Krasnodat Kray) In December 1988, 96th Air Defence Division consisted of:〔Michael Holm, (14th Air Defence Corps ), accessed March 2012〕 *166th Guards Fighter Aviation Regiment PVO (Marneuli (Sandar), в районе Тбилиси, Georgian SSR) 40 Су-15ТМ (12 кПВО) *529th Fighter Aviation Regiment PVO (Gudauta, Abkhazskaya ASSR), 34 Su-27 *144th Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade (Tbilisi, Georgian SSR) *266th Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade (Poti, Georgian SSR) *643rd Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade (Gudauta, Abkhazskaya ASSR) *383rd Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment (Echmiadzin, Armenian SSR) *78th Radio-Technical Brigade (Batumi, Georgian SSR) *79th Radio-Technical Brigade (Marneuli, Georgian SSR) In December 1988, 97th Air Defence Division consisted of:〔Michael Holm, (15th Air Defence Corps ), accessed March 2012〕 *Headquarters, Alyaty, Baku *82nd Fighter Aviation Regiment PVO (иап), Nasosnaya (air base), Baku, 38 МиГ-25 *128th Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade (Eirya, Azerbaizhan SSR) *129th Anti-Aircraft Missile Brigade (Sangachaly, Azerbaizhan SSR) *190th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment (Mingechaur, Azerbaizhan SSR) *2nd Radio-Technical Brigade (Alyaty (Baku), Azerbaizhan SSR) There is conflicting information on fighter regiments assigned to the army.
