It appears the orcs are going all out with planes. How long can they keep this up? Losing 2 planes on a daily basis is going to get very expensive, especially if the pilots become toast in the process.
Hehehe, indeed, Foccusser. The chickens are coming home to roast (!) now, so to say. Looks like the 25 miles that the bombers can stand off when releasing their KABs aren’t a safe distance. Since they also have to go high for giving the glide bombs the necessary range, the jets will be illuminated by radar and thus become a target for Patriots or NASAMS. Russian aviation can’t afford such losses, production is too low. And how long will Russian pilots dare to conduct these missions, under such a dire threat? At least in that sector of the front, we’ll see less airstrikes, I guess.
I have a feeling that russia are going to throw everything they can at Ukraine while the US dithers in Congress. It’s no coincidence that the orcs have started to use their planes more, hoping to deplete Ukrainian air defence missiles.
Yeah, right, this conclusion is obvious, Foccusser. Sure looks that way.
Imagine using airplanes to intercept missiles…
Imagine no more: this is the Ruzzian mentality. Damn the losses, full zombie rush!
Well, SoL, imho Russians should be encouraged to use 50 million dollar jets to destroy one million dollar missiles head on!
😁
Very good indeed.
Aviators worldwide are a sort of club : military and civilian. By definition they are of considerably above average intelligence. Generally they are affable people.
Yet orc pilots put their hi tech killing machines into the air with the intention to murder Ukrainian civilians, as well as troops. And they are proud of themselves.
They are vermin of the same level of evil as the butchers of Bucha.
Another happy story!
Here’s to many more.
