Coz it seems out of reach for any Ukranian Air defense or fighter jets. wtf... this is HHHUUGGGeeee it cant be heavy ground based missiles due to range...... cant be manpads from some secret ships... these are huge planes to take down with small manpads. ukranian fighters?... the A50 is surely escorted by SUs unless the russians are THAT incompetent🤨 the IL 22 may still not be that big deal unless its carrying something/someones very important. but the A50, there are very few operational ones in the russian air force. AWAC ah.... easily worth a whole squadron of SU heavy fighters in monetary terms. but much much much more operationally. Strategic asset for russians. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ender Hypersonic January 15 Share January 15 Ukraine Air Force confirm the downing of the two aircraft.. Russia MOD still silent about it. How they did it? It's beyond the reach of Air Defense and their fighter jets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
macrosszero Turbocharged January 15 Share January 15 Well naturally Ruzzian MOD is silent because they still don’t know how it happened. A fair bit of speculation and elimination based on known weapons systems and deliveries to Ukraine but still nothing fits the profile: It is far from Ukrainian lines Ukrainian aircraft have radar and AAM of limited performance compared to the AWACs Ukrainian seaborne assets couldn’t carry anything heavy like an S-300 or Patriot The Meteor missile is suspected but is not known to be compatible with existing Ukrainian planes or even the maybe-delivered F-16s Some even speculated it was a stealth aircraft - that if it wasn’t seen, it didn’t fire a missile and the Russian plane becoming a submarine is merely a natural evolutionary process. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be sizable AA missile... but what kind 🤔 With such a density of holes, I'm guessing the damage extends quite a bit more to the rest of the plane if crew was lost. Maybe aliens.. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ender Hypersonic January 17 Share January 17 One theory offered by Forbes. A trap to bring in the planes closer, then use AD like patriot. Meanwhile Russian TG channels claims it was friendly fire. They prefer to go with they being stupid, rather then Ukraine having the advance capabilities or being clever. Below report is just speculation, no one knows how the Ukrainian did it at this moment. https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2024/01/16/ukrainian-crews-set-a-complex-missile-trap-for-russias-best-radar-plane/?sh=73d500a73566 Ukrainian Crews Set A Complex Missile Trap For Russia’s Best Radar Plane Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ender Hypersonic January 18 Share January 18 (edited) I think this is the same battle of the Bradley vs T90 posted earlier. This view shows the Bradley was able to hit the T90 multiple times while the T90 can't respond. In the hands of skilled armour operators, a IFV can beat a more powerful but slower tank by being faster and accurate. The auto cannon hit machiam like fire work. With enough hits, I guess can still penetrate the T90 armour. Edited January 18 by Ender ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
