      Aye, all that stuff they are doing over your way. They think the South China Sea is the South CCP Sea.

        A Tu-22M has been destroyed by a drone attack. Russian sources say the bomber was "damaged", which is technically true, but "damaged" airplens don't have their nose and cockpit touching the ground and are photographed being enveloped by a raging inferno...



        Denmark and The Netherlands have pledge up to 61 F-16s to Ukraine, though no news on when the planes will be transferred. Denmark has pledged 19, the rest are Dutch planes.
        In the previous days, US officials commented that Ukranian F-16s would only become fully operative next year.

          That tu22 should buff out.

            The Russians did make some fantastic looking planes and choppers - pity a lot of them were copies of western stuff ...that didn't work as well as the originals.

              The Kamov choppers say hold my beer!

                They did pretty well with the mig29 vs it’s US equivalents but even that was outclassed at the time by quite a margin, great dogfighting capabilities are also useless when your enemy has a 10mile lock advantage and you can’t even see them on your radar.

                Ukraine has done absolutely amazing without virtually any air support, when they have F16 close air support Russia will get a good kick in the teeth, as they won’t have uncontested skies.

                  Prigozhin dead. His plane "came down". That gravity is lethal in Russia, someone should look into it.

                  The Russian private military company boss was on the passenger list of the jet which came down near Moscow.

                      It's almost become depressing how bad and/or low effort Putin is at this point.

                          Wow. I'm a bit gutted his fate wasn't the classic; Fell out of a high rise window.

                          All this reminds me I still haven't seen The Death of Stalin which is meant to be brilliant.

                            It is. Probably shouldn't have been a training video for the Russian government though...

                              What a shocking coincidence that it was being recorded as it occured as well
