Please feel free to move this but "Russian 'plane crashes" doesn't seem to merit a new section:-

"A Russian military plane (reported as a Sukhoi) crashed into Irkutsk residential building on Sunday morning according to Russian state media."

Definitely an Su-30 or something similar. Dove almost 90 degrees angle straight into the ground, as seen on video on Twitter.

Russian military plane crashes into Irkutsk residential building on Sunday morning according to Russian state media.

TASS, citing the area's governor, said that the building was two stories tall.
The Su-30 warplane crashed during a test flight, RIA said.

Indeed a VERY steep dive...

10/23/22: A Su-30SM crashes into a residential building in Irkutsk (Central Siberia).
Both pilots died.
It appears that the aircraft was in flight and had not responded to the radio for 20 minutes.
A second Su-30 approached and realized that the two crew members were unresponsive and had their heads lowered, as if unconscious.
The plane crashed out of fuel.
The final oscillation, visible at the end of the video, in slow motion, is probably due to the autopilot trying to reach the flight envelope, without success...
If this is the case, it looks like a pollution of the pressurization system (pollution of the oxygen, narcolepsy...).
The dark streak continues...
