The Ukrainian 299th Air Force Brigade near Vuhledar lost its squadron commander, holder of the Order of Bohdan Khmelnitsky of all degrees

Against the backdrop of reports that Ukraine expects fighter supplies from the West, the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine continues to lose flight personnel. If you bracket the ridiculous stories about the "ghost of Kyiv", the fact remains: there are fewer and fewer experienced pilots in Ukraine, and it is becoming more and more difficult to train a "new" flight crew or restore the skills of retired pilots.

Information has been confirmed that the 299th tactical brigade aviation named after General Vasily Nikiforov of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine lost another pilot. This is the squadron commander, Major Daniil Murashko, holder of the Order of Bogdan Khmelnitsky of three degrees.

According to some reports, he piloted a Su-25 attack aircraft in the Ugledar area. Accordingly, either it was shot down by the Russian Armed Forces, or it was the same “friendly” fire when the Ukrainian military, using MANPADS, shot down their own combat aircraft, initially thinking that it was a Russian combat vehicle.

The press service of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (for simplicity, the Air Force) claims that Murashko made 24 sorties since February 2022, 141, "destroying about 70 armored vehicles, over 80 vehicles, including 30 tankers and about 600 invaders." As for how all this was calculated, the data, of course, are not given.

Initially, the 299th brigade of the Ukrainian Air Force was based at the Kulbakino airfield in the Mykolaiv region.

If there are so many merits, then the hero of Ukraine should be, but no one knows how really, as always.
In fact, the Ukrainians shoot at all the planes that fly and there is no time to sort out friend or foe, and they give a reward for the downed one, which is why they sneer. And ours, in view of the lack of ukroaviation or its rare flights, are less bothered by this so as not to bring down our own.

[Silver99]

Major Murashko is the one who caught the Kirpich pickpocket in "The meeting place cannot be changed"? Kondrat Filimonovich never did such ......... things!

[Orange Bigg]

Captain, Flight Squadron Commander. He died on January 27.01.2023, 25 in the Kramatorsk district of the Donetsk region. Su-3 pilot, 299rd class. XNUMX BrTA.

Posthumously promoted to the rank of major.

What is his Slavic face Ukraine is the heart of the Slavic world .

[Orange Bigg]

So in the South everyone is swarthy. Even the Slavs. Take a look at the same Serbs or go to the Russian South. To the Rostov, Volgograd regions or the Krasnodar, Stavropol Territories. won't come down.

Earth him glassy!

[Egeny]

Well, don’t tell me, Serge, the Ministry of Defense has introduced prices for captured or downed ukrov equipment, so they will be “naughty”. Another thing is: if our MANPADS, then the Igla complexes have a "friend or foe" recognition system, but in imported ones these blocks are removed, maybe I'm wrong.

[Bolt cutter]

Take a look at the same Serbs

I looked. They are not like that in general.

[4ekist]

Bolt cutter .... What a Slavic face he has

Looks like a Himalayan monkey. Well, true dill.

[Thompson]

It's in what way? Butt, not heart!

[alexoff]

How old is he, the squadron commander? 27?

[Bolt cutter]

squadron leader? 27

24. It is obvious that the more experienced ones have already been knocked out.

[4ekist]

Orange-Bigg .....Posthumously promoted to major.

It was possible to assign a major general, posthumously.

Kid at all. At one time, no one whipped on the ass properly - that's life and rolled awry. He turned out to be a Nazi - as a result, he was naturally drunk.

As Pikul rhetorically asked: "Should we feel sorry for this favorite Goering? No, no need to feel sorry! Let him sink with his flaming plane!" (With)

[MakStVik]

Is this a 3rd class pilot they have the best? How did he become a squadron leader with a 3rd class? They no longer have pilots. The whole squadron of him alone consisted of a campaign.

[KCA]

Well, where in the Stingers and other MANPADS will there be a friend/foe interrogator for 404 aircraft, this is not "Verba" or "Needle", our planes will not be shot down

[Sergey3]

Every day would be so pleased, sending scumbags to Bandera!

Oh, yes, you’re tempted to count them ... Of the known ones, the UNSO officer was confirmed today, or

Dozmagarilsya...

[Serg 122]

... "having destroyed about 70 armored vehicles, over 80 cars, including 30 tankers and about 600 invaders" ...
But what about 5 motorcycles with machine guns? 3 sheepskin coats, 3 movie cameras, domestic cigarettes... three...
Oh no, it was a different comedy.

[agoran]

The Sumerians do not have a "friend or foe" system, boobies.

[Orange Bigg]

So they shot down their own from MANPADS. And what kind of friend-foe system is on MANPADS?

[Bingo]

Quote from Orange Bigg

And what is the friend-or-foe system on MANPADS?

If you didn't know, she is. The joke is that they don’t put

[SKVichyakow]

The reward awaits its heroes. And among the Ukrainian military there are "pro-Russian". The whole squadron commander was killed.

[agoran]

What kind of commander is he? 141 sorties, well, yes, 4-5 sorties per shift, flew in a circle in two months, and in the first sortie they failed, a worthless commander.

[silverwolf88]

everything is so but there are no pro-Russians ... they are all a bunch of scum

[alexey_444]

I'm more surprised by the number of orc sorties. With such raids and maintenance, one does not hear about a simple crash of aircraft due to technical malfunctions; we have already lost five aircraft in non-combat conditions during this time.

[alexoff]

So almost all the news is either from three and a half military correspondents, or from the Sumerians themselves. They rarely post their downed litaks (and in general a lot of things infrequently, there are quite a few photos from afar like something smoking after an explosion, but from such places it’s very sparse), especially if they didn’t take them for enemies at first. And the Ministry of Defense, which could appoint a person who would be given something from a satellite, so that he would look for affected objects there, and then post them on the Internet, does not bother about such reports

[Carlos Hall]

There are 77 downed Ukrainian planes with visual evidence. We don't know how many more were destroyed, for which there is no visual evidence, but in any case, their base fleet was destroyed and they now fly assembled aircraft brought in from Poland and other former Warsaw Pact countries.

[agoran]

Yes, garbage is a question, the A-50 flies, there was infa that the Sumerian MiG-29s were destroyed in 300 km.

[Sebostyuan]

Well done - followed in the footsteps of "Pilot Kuev". Just like the Kyiv boar, he was shot down by his own.

Enlighten who knows.
The article says that there is nowhere to teach pilots and restore skills. I have a question. What prevents you from conducting training flights in other countries?
Second question. Military schools of Ukraine continue to train cadets?

[Cook]

For this, sparks are needed, well, or, in extreme cases, a good simulator. Instructors, again ... As far as I know, there are not a lot of educational institutions there.

[storm]

As for how all this was calculated, the data, of course, are not given.

As Mr. Kanashenkov believes, it’s also not clear, according to his “arithmetic”, the Armed Forces of Ukraine in service with all the equipment should have ended long ago, but there planes with helicopters fly and tanks with self-propelled guns and MLRS keep shooting and shooting ... .

Registrations and double-entry bookkeeping were always and everywhere in the war, someone for the sake of an asterisk on shoulder straps, someone for the sake of money, and someone for the sake of beautiful reports several times "shoots down" the same enemy PLANES, knocks out the same tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, and of course it mows down hundreds of infantry ....

Same with the rest.

[agoran]

As Kozma Prutkov said, you need to look at the root.
If we abstract from the numbers, then the really heavy equipment of the Sumerians was destroyed.

Single flights of the Su-25 or Mi-8, piloted by asses of the 3rd class, which end almost every time with a downing - is this the presence of the Air Force? No, there is no Air Force in Ukraine and will not be, even if they start to supply F-16s.

[flint]

I suppose he dreamed of transferring to the F-16 in the future, but he moved in the form of burnt lumps into a pine coffin - they are all dear there!

[agoran]

On the Su-25, EMNIP, there is an FKP, you can see how much this type of pilot destroyed there?

[Luka Nord]

lost the squadron commander, holder of the Order of Bogdan Khmelnitsky of all degrees

The cities of Donbass were bombed in 2015 .. We remember these bloody photos ..
Well, the earth is glassy to him .. damn
I hope his remains will be buried in a sewer ditch and spit crossed

[alexoff]

Judging by the pictures, he was still at school in 2014

[Bolt cutter]

He was 16 years old in 2014. So yes, that's exactly right.

[Nikolay310]

I wonder how the number of invaders can be counted on a flyer? Well, some kind of obvious nonsense ... although dill-patriots don’t even know how to believe in such nonsense ...

if only he destroyed 600 Ukrainian invaders, for which they eventually shot him down ...

[NikolayDS]

how can you count the number of invaders on a flyer

Well, now let's also count our losses according to what is written in the Ukrainian memorial lists. It should be easier to deal with it. It's just an element of heroism. You can write off hypothetical victories on the dead - no one will condemn and will not go to check.
It is important that this news indirectly confirms the high losses in the ranks of the pilots of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and not what he was counted at the end of the funeral. Or do you think - he is now resting in Valhalla in the company of Heinrich Erler?

[Petr_Koldunov]

As for how all this was calculated, the data, of course, are not given.

Yes how how? As this micro-major reported, they recorded it.
Well, he really didn't lie! "Major Murashko doesn't do such foul things ..." (c) The meeting place cannot be changed

From this obituary, by the way, I conclude that the major was a very modest lad. I could have reported after each sortie how Armat turned the division upside down with rollers ...

[Petr_Koldunov]

Damn... child... major! 24 years old - commander, major! Are there no more men? Are there only ukrokibalchis left?
Ukroreich is moving along the knurled path of his older brother - the German Reich:

And also the boys marching with faustpatrons are also remembered ... Ukrainians, finish it, huh? After all, you are already throwing children at plugging holes!

[Seal]

After all, he was once a man. How did they get there so quickly??!!

[Fangaro]

Still young. He learned to fight for his ideals and fought.
Our enemy. He killed many who were like him.
But, if the enemy believed in what he was taught from school, then let this enemy rest in the Orthodox faith.

[Volunteer Marek]

Pilot 3rd class? The best pilot?
Something I don't understand...
Who is not the best then? What then is their class scale? Probably their 3rd class corresponds to our 1st class or Assu?
I marvel!
