Re: ALLIED RESOLVE 2022 + what followed

Re: ALLIED RESOLVE 2022 + what followed

Further images analyzed by Bellingcat reveal more helicopters burned down, which were seemingly intact at the high res pic. About 5 more in tatters. Seems the additional victims are: 2 Alligators smoked, as well as the 2 Mi-8s and 1 Mi-35 (but hard to make up exact types). https://twitter.com/EliotH...

Re: Germany to buy F35...

Can't imagine how this plane would ever be able to deliver the same punch as Tornado is still able to deliver...... The Tornado is getting obsolete, with old equipment. You cannot upgrade aircraft indefinitely. The survivability will degrade over time. And an aircraft that will not survive an attac...

News & thoughts on Putin's invasion of Ukraine

Shocking but confirming story about the fighting value (or lack of that) of the Russian Paratroopers, giving extra context why the wheels came off the plan on day 1.

Another Russian helicopter, probably a new one, shot down. Reported as Mi-24/35, but not clear, could also be a Mi-8. Edit: looks like a Mi-8

This time a Ukrainian Su-25 shot down, code 31.

And Russians reaching a milestone with more than 1000 pieces of equipment lost…with photographic proof…so imagine the actual losses.

FAKE
Indeed this Ghost of Kyiv story is complete nonsense, a story made up by online gamers.
Total fantasy.

Two pilots floating down with parachutes. Pilots ejected after their aircraft was shot down in Bilozerka, Kherson region.
looks like one chute is not properly working.
