    Oops, we did it again!

    Another russian Su-34 fighter-bomber was destroyed by Ukrainian warriors in the eastern direction.

    And now it’s 10 destroyed russian planes in 10 days!

    Another! In addition to the morning! “Around 2:00 p.m., we worked on another SU-34. The direction is the same! The goal is the same! Well, we continue to work… To victory,” said the commander of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Lieutenant General Mykola Oleschuk.

  2. I mean.. they prob have a few but it’s going quick now, not?

    Id be interested to see how many are left.

    Some must be non operational due to spare parts. 

    Any overview on this?

  3. So googling the cost per SU-34, it seems to be in the ballpark of $50 mil.
    $100 mil in a day 😀

  4. It’s a tough call but Ukraine need the pilots out of action permanently too

  5. There will be more as the quality of pilots falls through the floor.

  6. Guess no early warning since A50s got downed, me like, very nice.

  7. Is this a result of the strategic retreat from adviidka? In my head it makes sense that Russians got used to bombardment of the encircled town and are now exposed to a prepared line of Ukrainian defenses including AA

  8. First one made me smile, second one gives me hard one…hattrick please 🙏

  9. Imagine being the guy who has to tell Putin every single day that they lost another aircraft. And having no answer to why and how… Interesting times ahead.

  10. This is what happens when you believe Russian propaganda that all Ukrainian air defense has been destroyed.

  11. Go Air Force! This has been a productive two weeks for the UAF!

  12. Vatniks are gonna ignore this cause they’re still wanking over the Abrams

  13. Let’s throw in an Su-35 or Tu-95 as well for good measure next. Or both.

  14. Am I the only one concerned that this is more of a sign of Russia getting more confident? As much as we celebrate this, they’re still making hundreds of millions of dollars. Brazen, yes, but they know to recuperate loses or outright disregard them

  15. You know things are going pretty bad for Russia when Ukraine has to attach a timestamp to every Su-34 they shoot down.

  16. ♫⋆。♪ ₊˚♬ ゚ It’s raining men…. in Su-34. ♫⋆。♪ ₊˚♬ ゚.

  17. Interesting they’re keeping choppers out of the mix. Also curious how these fights are straying into range. The glide bombs are supposedly dropped outside of the SAM envelope so either they’re tickling the edges to drop or Ukraine is sneaking launchers up close.
