The A-50U is the flying control and awareness center of the Russian Air Force. It is a modernization of the A-50 (production 1978-1991) and A-50M (modernization 1992-2011), respectively.
The A-50U modernization program began in the middle of the first decade of the 21st century. The prototype modernization was carried out on the A-50 aircraft with ref. 0073476298 / p.no. 58-05 and state final tests of the prototype were completed in 2009. In the same year, it was decided to gradually upgrade the in-service A-50M to the A-50U version. Although the A-50/A-50M/A-50U aircraft are similar in appearance, the main difference of the A-50U from its predecessors lies within - it's all-new surveillance radar and modified control system. Thanks to the smaller size and weight of the installed kit, it was possible to improve not only the working conditions of the operators (rest room or on-board toilet), but also to increase the volume of the fuel tanks, which allowed to extend the range and endurance in the air.
Modernization is progressing relatively slowly, however, as by the end of 2021, the armed forces have taken delivery of 7 modernized aircraft (including the prototype, which was used for supplementary tests in 2009-2014 and was taken over by the Air Force in 2014). An eighth aircraft was taken over in September 2023. Meanwhile, one aircraft (RF-50608) was damaged in a drone attack in February 2023.

A-50U je lietajúce stredisko riadenia a uvedomovania ruského letectva
Nebolo by vhodnejšie použitie medzinárodne používaného výrazu "lietajúce stredisko velenia a riadenia"?

Dumal som nad tým, ale zavrhol som to, aj keď viem že mnohé zdroje anglické AWACS (a ruské DRLO) tak označujú, ale pod Command and Control mám zafixované niečo iné ako pod Airborne Early Warning and Control. Nie som si istý aká je úloha AWACS dnes, ale ich pôvodná úloha bol najmä prieskum a odovzdávanie situačnej informácie (teda včasné varovanie, uvedomovanie a pod.) a samotné velenie sa často realizovalo inde. Pod lietajúcim strediskom velenia a riadenia si skôr predstavím niečo ako EC-130E, alebo ruský Il-80.

V článku Pavla Vanky Ruský AWACS Běrjev A-50 - Letectví a kosmonautika 2015 / 06 sa píše: Hlavní úkoly A-50 spočívají ve zjišťování, identifikaci a sledování vzdušných cílů, řízení letového provozu a navádéní vlastních letounů na cíle, předávání dat s aktuální situací v reálném čase ostatním systémům PVO a detekci zdrojů elektomagnetického záření s určováním jejich polohy.

Pozerám ten obrázok znázorňujúci údajnú trajektóriu letu A-50U z incidentu 14.01.2024 - fakt by ma zaujímali myšlienkové pochody toho, kto naplánovala s schválil misiu tohto lietadla tak, že sa približovala na vzdialenosť cca 110 km k línii frontu (a vzdialenejší bod obratu sa pohyboval vo vzdialenosti cca 200-230 km), najmä potom, keď UA už predviedla, že dokáže ničiť lietadlá vo vzduchu dosť ďaleko za líniou frontu. To rovno mohli na to lietadlo namaľovať terč. Ak takto lietali pravidelne (zdá sa že áno), tak sa vôbec nečudujem, že to lietadlo zostrelili.
