Ok let us try to divide the things (in approximate figures)
ASW aircraft ~ 30 (Including long range, medium range, short range)
ASW helicopters ~ 20-25 (sea king and komov)
Transport aircrafts ~ 30 (IL 76)
even if we say helicopters as 50 it is still ~ 300 aircrafts if we take 3 aircraft carriers each having 40 (assumption) aircrafts then also 180 remains what does he is talking seems like there are two air forces in making.
