According to the People's Army Newspaper, the Su-30MK2 fighter jets of the 927th Air Regiment have just completed a night flight after being relocated in November 2016.

| According to Colonel La Dai Phong, a Level 1 pilot and Commander of the 371st Air Division: The 927th Air Regiment has successfully organized many day flight training sessions with diverse and complex flight exercises, all achieving good results. |
 |
| The Su-30MK2 fighter jet has conducted night flights over Kep airfield. Currently, the pilots of the 927th Air Regiment have sufficient capability and skill to master the Su-30MK2 in all conditions, pilot La Dai Phong said. |
 |
| Thus, the plan to build and equip three regiments of modern Su-30MK2 fighter jets for the Air Defense - Air Force Command was completed by the end of 2016. The unit receiving the new aircraft is the 927th Air Regiment - Lam Son Air Group, belonging to the 371st Air Division. |
 |
| Thus, the Su-30MK2 fighter jets of the Vietnamese Air Force have been deployed to key locations to protect the country's airspace and maritime territories. |
 |
| Specifically, the Su-30MK2s of the 927th Air Regiment (Lam Son Regiment) stationed at Kep Air Base, Bac Giang, will protect the northern airspace of the Fatherland. |
 |
| Meanwhile, Regiment 923 (Yen The Regiment), stationed at Sao Vang Airport in Thanh Hoa, was on duty in the central region, and Regiment 935 (Bien Hoa Regiment) protected the airspace and seas of the southern part of the country, especially the Truong Sa archipelago. |
 |
| The Su-30MK2 fighter jet is known as a multi-role aircraft capable of achieving air superiority, air defense, patrolling, escorting, and attacking targets on land and at sea. |
 |
| The Su-30MK2 has a maximum flight speed of over 2,100 km/h, a maximum range of approximately 3,000 km, and can reach over 8,000 km with in-flight refueling. |
 |
| In particular, this fighter jet is capable of detecting targets several hundred kilometers away thanks to its long-range fire control radar system. |
 |
| The Su-30MK2's weapon system is extremely modern and powerful, suitable for air-to-air, air-to-ground, and air-to-sea combat. The Su-30MK2 has a massive weapon payload capacity, up to 8 tons on 12 pylons. It also features an internal GSh-301 30mm cannon with 150 rounds of ammunition. (Photo: People's Army Newspaper). |
