  1. I *told* you not to bind ‘Q’ to rockets, you fucking dumbass!

    It’s too close to ‘W’!

  6. Does not look like a hit, more a plane desintegration but I’m not professional

  7. Like do you still put the black mark of what you shot down on your plane? A kill is a kill in Russia right?

  8. “Why get in way of boom poles?” The surviving orc pilot.

  13. what are we watching here?

    And i always thought pilots are some types of elite.

  14. Except the wingman was not directly behind lead, and no smoke and flame from launching rockets. Manpad or sucked a drone?

  15. Friendly fire is never friendly, but in this situation useful for Ukraine 

  18. That surviving pilot will probably find himself signed up to a meat assault pretty soon.

  19. If he survives the landing, I’m going to guess the guy who shot him won’t survive falling out a window. 🪟

  22. In the era when we already had jets but still thought that dogfighting using cannons was the way to go, Soviet pilots got excellent scores for accuracy.

    That is because their targeting system was not updated as speeds and distances grew so they went ahead and shot the targets point blank range and then lied about the distance. Everyone did, the pilots, the instructors, the guys dragging the target balloons, everyone.

  26. This is actually even more embarrassing than an accidental shootdown.

    Slowed down footage makes it seem like the su25 simply fell apart completely on the turn.

  27. I honestly dont think that’s it.. but the only alternate I can come up with is that the wing just popped off due to stress which isn’t much better. Their planes are so fucked and over due for maintenance that theyre just falling apart or their pilots are so poorly trained that they shoot each other down or exceed the tolerances of their own aircraft.

    Take your pick, either one is great news for Ukraine!!!
