Dear forum members, I’m trying to understand the system of military ranks in the aviation of the USSR law enforcement agencies as of 1990-91, as well as the correspondence to their positions management team. This raised a number of questions. I would be grateful to receive answers to them.

1) What were the military ranks of the following pilots, ship commanders, crew commanders, and helicopter commanders:

Air Force:
Tu-22/22R/22P captain?
3MS(MN) captain?
IL-62 lieutenant colonel?
An-26RT captain?
An-26RTR captain?

Universities: major? Tu-134UBL Tu-134SH

AA
Mi-2 senior lieutenant?
An-2 senior lieutenant? (airborne aviation)

Aviation PV:
Major? An-72
Major? Yak-40
lieutenant colonel? Tu-134
lieutenant colonel? Tu-154
lieutenant colonel? IL-76
captain? Ka-29 (were there???)
captain of the Ka-25?

Types of aircraft produced in the 80s:
3M Major?
MiG-17 senior lieutenant
An-14 senior lieutenant? there were also ensigns...
Su-9 captain?
Su-11 captain?
Tu-126 major?
Tu-128 captain?
Mi-1 captain?
Mi-4 captain?

For higher ranks - higher educational institutions (but only up to major), TsBP (but only up to major), ADON
Two ranks higher - RKhBZ aviation (test sites), testers (GKNII Air Force).

Somewhere I came across that in the 70th air force (Chkalovsky, GUKOS) on the Il-76K/MDK KK was a colonel, the rest of the Chechens were lieutenant colonels.

What ranks did the pilots (navigators) at ARZ and aircraft factories (“flymen”) have?
There are two versions.
First. The test pilots and flight pilots were already reserves, because were recruited there after leaving the Armed Forces and joining the MAP. Perhaps someone will correct...
The second - by rank at aircraft factories that produced aircraft for military aviation:
- head of LIS - colonel;
- senior test pilot - lieutenant colonel;
- test pilot - major.

As far as I understand, in aviation GUKOS (KV), Strategic Missile Forces, Air Force of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Civil Defense, the ranks of KK (KE) were “standard”?
Although, they once said that in 1990-91. the MVD Air Force aviation (squadron on Il-76) lured the CC from the VTA as a lieutenant colonel...

2) Ranks of management personnel:

Position position category
crew commander (helicopter), pilot, senior lieutenant, captain, major
senior pilot captain
flight commander (detachment) captain, major
commander of a separate detachment, major
Deputy Commissar Major

* - the first deputies are meant everywhere.
** - if the VA is small (4-5 regiments)

Questions about management ranks:

I looked in more detail at the ranks of all the commanders of the VA and Air Force of the Military District. Almost everyone is an aviation lieutenant general. In the 16th VA and Air Force of the Moscow Military District - Colonel General of Aviation. The commanders of the 36th VA had the rank of major general. Not higher. Perhaps this is due to the small size of the army - 4-5 regiments.

And when was the suffix “aviation” abolished in the highest military rank? officers Air Force? Before 1992 or after?

Is it true that the positions of the head of the Armavir VVAUL and 33 TsBP aviation of the USSR Navy were lieutenant general? If yes, then why such an exception compared to other higher educational institutions and pulp and paper industry?

Those. the position of commander of the FA Air Force of the USSR Armed Forces was already in 1991, or, nevertheless, it appeared in 1992-93?

As far as I understand, general ranks were the heads of the PBP VTA, DA, AA, FA and air defense aviation in Ivanovo, Lipetsk, Torzhok, Dyagilevo and Savasleika, and in the rest they were colonels?

Thank you in advance!
Peace and goodness to everyone!
Sincerely
