Aircraft were hit by anti-aircraft missiles.

The Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has just attacked two more Russian Su-34 and Su-35 fighter jets in the eastern direction with anti-aircraft missiles, Lieutenant General Mykola Oleschuk, Commander of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, reported at 5:08 p.m.
“We are waiting for confirmation of the desired result,” he said.
According to Oleshchuk, Russian troops continue to use tactical aviation for strikes with guided aerial bombs, but “it is becoming increasingly difficult for the occupiers to fly.”
“We need more systems, more weapons to clear our skies,” the general added.

Here’s crossing fingers! And if this has been another success, how long will the Russian airforce stubbornly continue to send their pilots to hell? Better to ground all fighter planes now! 😁
Better we destroy them as quickly as we can, if they stop flying them they still have the resource.
Destroy as many as possible to also cause as much financial damage as possible.
Ok, Mason, but I’m quite certain that Ukrainian soldiers, under threat of Russian glide bombs, would prefer the jets to be grounded immediately. It’s no fun playing bait for bombers so that Patriot crews can destroy them. ☹
Absolutely, but no Planes = no bombs.
