  1. Good, wasn’t doing anything good for humanity any way.

    Sword to plowshares, or at the very least aircraft to farm field somewhere.

  2. I allready believe it.. but wait for more news, lol. Yes im easy… 😂.
    Thats big news. Huge. Excellent.
    If they loose all then russia would loose most of its teeth, lets hope someone can do that….

  3. How reliable is “fighterbomber” ? Heard conflicting views

  4. This is one of their unicorns.

    Impossible to replace and now also can’t be used as spare parts for the others.

    Slava to those shitty maintenance personnel

  5. Oh dear how very sad 😢 shame it wasn’t two of them.

  6. How “sad”…

    Anyway, what can I do to support Ukraine today? (I know what to do…, but that’s my focus)

  7. Let’s not exclude infiltration, although technical failure is certainly not hard to believe.

  8. That far away from the fighting, either going to be pilot error or mechanical/maintenance failure.

    Yes, let’s hope the pilot is gone too, if they were someone who could be rotated into dropping bombs on Ukraine.

  9. If Ukraine had anything to do with with that, it is seriously impressive at 4500Km. OTOH it would be wonderful if they have AI drones that can fly that distance then bring down anything in the air.

    🇺🇦 Slava Ukrain 🇺🇦

  10. It’s only a matter of time before they fall from the sky. Flying hours on jets are hard limited, at some point the chassis will give way. The aircraft are 30 to 50 years old and are now simply being flown to scrap… The well-known great maintenance work of the highly motivated mechanics does the rest.

  11. Are we thinking it crashed, or it “Crashed” due to a metallic bird strike?

  12. Nice. They don’t have too many more of them do they? under 10 I thought.

  13. Such great news. Hopefully, the ruzzians have more such great news to share with the free world. Please

  14. One terror bomber less. Driving them away from bases near the frontlines pays off. Those things are old and hard to maintain. Every extra hour to drop bombs and cruise missiles is costly for Russia. Probably less than 50 are currently airworthy and every other loss puts more wear and tear on the remaining ones. After running out of so much equipment on the sea and on the ground, it’s time for the bomber fleet to fall apart

  15. Crashed on its own, or crashed from debris and a fire caused by all the drones that were heroically shot down in an unrelated incident?

    I’m always curious about such things because, I love to hear the reasoning.
