Karelian Air Command
The Karelian Air Command ((フィンランド語:Karjalan lennosto), abbr. ''KarLsto''; (スウェーデン語:Karelens flygflottilj)) is the peace-time Finnish Air Force unit, responsible for the protection of the airspace of eastern and southeastern Finland. In spite of its name, the headquarters of the air command is not located in the Finnish historical province of Karelia, but in historical Savonia and in the present-day province of Northern Savonia, at the Kuopio Airport in Siilinjärvi.
The wing consists about 20 F-18 Hornets, belonging to the No. 31 Sqn and six radar stations. The unit has about 600 personnel, of whom 450 are professional enlisted men or commissioned officers and the other 150 are yearly-changing conscripts. The Headquarters no 7 is also located at the air force base.
The unit was created in 1918 as the ''Lento-Osasto II''. During World War II it was to encompose the Fighter Squadrons 24, 26 and 28. The unit was moved to Rissala after the wars, and the fighter wing was divided between Flying Regiments 2 and 3. Flying Regiment 2, was later equipped with Fouga Magisters and MiG-21s. The unit flew MiG-21s from 1960 until 1998, when it received its F-18 Hornets.
