The 98th Separate Composite Aviation Regiment (military unit 81636) is an aviation unit with a history dating back to 1941, which for many years bore the name "98th Separate Guards Reconnaissance Aviation Regiment." It is deployed at Monchegorsk airfield in Murmansk Oblast; its armament includes squadrons of MiG-31BM interceptor fighters, Su-24M front-line bombers, and Su-24MR reconnaissance aircraft, with rearmament to Su-34 planned since 2015. The formation is listed in the database as part of the "6th Air Force and Air Defense Army," whereas in open sources from the 2010s, the regiment is associated with the 1st Air Force and Air Defense Command – this requires clarification.
