  1. Happened on 08/03/2024, previously mistaken for a Ukrainian SU24

  3. He was flying low but I don´t see rocket avoid movements, was he aware of that rocket?

  6. Damn if thats true that would bring them down to 6 total. You gotta think its getting hard from them to keep more than 2 or 3 of those suckers in the air at any given time. What a fascinating war. Ukraine has been losing ground but winning the air and sea war as of late.

    Wheres the fucking f16’s at bruh.

  7. You can’t see markings on the plane, zero context, can’t trust this shit

  9. I very much doubt this is a R37. A small low flying manuevering fighter really wouldn’t be a target for such a weapon, these are awacs and strategic bomber killers.
    I think this is friendly fire from some kind of IR manpads.
    The UAF are getting hamered at the moment from guided bombs, so they’re likely a bit trigger twitchy.

  10. Looks like a large warhead. So either R-37M or S-400/300.

  12. He looks too high to be be safe. Perhaps he was descending, but really ought to be down in the bushes doing rapid max G turns RIP

  13. The rwr’s on soviet aircraft suck. Maybe that is the reason he did not notice and we don’t see any flares? I guess it isn’t a manpad?

  14. The lack of funding, the lack of artillery, the loss of the Abrams, the loss of the HIMARS, the loss of the patriot battery… Ukraine is starting to take chances with their equipment, and that usually means they are getting desperate. I anticipate seeing a large disruption in their ability to fight in the coming months.

  16. How many combat pilots do they have left? I thought these guys were rare.
