Russian Su-27 Hit By Friendly Fire Plunges Into The Black Sea In Flames - Lemmy.World

Nice shot, keep it up

Poor chap, imagine training your whole life just to be shot down by a friendly.

Nice shot though.

They probably got scooped from a jail cell and plopped into that because they could fly a crop duster. Let’s not pretend the Russian military is full of elite soldiers
Do you think their risk a fighter jet with a random inmate who can flight? The average military being bad doesn’t mean they don’t have the means to train some elite, they are still a huge country selling a shitload of fossil fuel to everyone, including oil to EU.

According to David Axe ar Forbes, the 38th Regiment’s only known air-to-air kill was a US Air Force MQ-9 Reaper drone pictured below on March 14, 2023.

Great work, chaps!

Wound up inverted in a flat spin. No way out of that one.
I saw a pic of a chute right before the video starts. No idea if it’s true.
There are things to try for a flat spin but not for the fully engulfed in flames part
I don’t usually say this, but good job Russia.

Russians shoot down another of their Flankers - thereby opening up a discussion about fratricide risk in war.

It’s probably just shit training.

Unpopular opinion: This won’t make any difference in war.

Russia is still going to win

32 minute old troll account.
Oof, that account name.
At the current rate of advancement 127 years until Russia conquers Ukraine. At the current rate of fighter/bomber lose this year… Russia will be out of fighters/bombers by next year. For those wondering they produce three a year and lost like 17 in the last 4 months.
I didn’t know the Ukrainians had Flankers. I thought the MiG 29 was their most advanced jet.
They’ve got more Fulcrums, but iirc they have like 20-30 flankers
