Russian Ministry of Defense: Ukrainian Armed Forces aviation lost five units of military equipment in one day

The Russian Armed Forces destroyed four enemy aircraft within 24 hours. One of them - the Su-XNUMX - was eliminated by our fighter aviation in the Odessa region. In addition, Russian air defense forces shot down another Ukrainian Su-24 bomber, two MiG-29 fighters and a Mi-8 helicopter.

This information was announced during the next briefing at the Russian Ministry of Defense.



It turns out that the Ukrainian Armed Forces aviation lost five units of military equipment over the past XNUMX hours.

In addition, a successful strike was again carried out on the Ukrainian Dolgintsevo airfield in the Krivoy Rog region, where Russian forces had previously destroyed an enemy Su-25 attack aircraft. Now our military has hit an ammunition and fuel warehouse there for the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

At this time, the Russian army continues to repel enemy attacks in various directions. Thus, in the Kupyansky direction in the area of ​​​​Sergeevka (LPR) and Sinkovka (Kharkiv region), five enemy assaults were repelled. At the same time, the fighters of the Russian group “West” were supported by artillery fire. Aviation also took an active part in repelling enemy attacks. In total, the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost three pickup trucks and about fifty military personnel in this direction.

In the Krasnolimansk direction, the enemy made ten assault attempts in the vicinity of Yampolovka (DPR), all of them were repulsed. In other directions, enemy actions also did not bring results and were accompanied by losses in manpower and equipment.

    It’s good news about the carriers of Anolo-French missiles. But here’s the thing—it means they’ve become more active.

      On that day, when I persistently tried to hear on TV news about the events at the airfield in Berdyansk, there was a story about the destruction of 7 Ukrainian Armed Forces aircraft at an airfield in the Odessa region. And here the question is, are our people starting to fight after another slap in the face, or...in short, are they trying to lubricate this slap with honey.

        It’s been a long time since it really doesn’t add up, or now they started talking about real enemy losses, and Konashenkov lied shamelessly, especially about the SU-24, which there is nowhere to get except from the Russian Federation.

        The planes were actually destroyed near Odessa. At least 6 pieces. There are even satellite photos. HOWEVER(!) these turned out to be 4 MiG-21s and 2 L-39s. Moreover, judging by satellite images, all this happiness has not only not taken off for several years, but has not even moved.

    Lesson for the future. Do not leave your weapons anywhere, as the USSR did, giving away thousands of planes and helicopters to everyone. Now all these air arsenals of Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Slovenia, East Germany, Albania, Hungary have been transferred to Ukraine. In total, Ukraine received more than 29 MIG-200 units alone.

        Formally, you are right. But you and I know how the countries of the Warsaw Pact received these weapons, at the time of the withdrawal of troops of the USSR, which no longer existed. They considered this a legacy of the occupation, which did not stop them from using the weapons they got for free.

          They were ours - while the USSR was strong. Believe me, I know what I’m saying - in the VD countries, the local authorities were not just friends, but strongly and sincerely loyal to the Soviet big brother. And the majority of the population was for us. But there were also those who were against it. On their basis, the States began to educate a generation of revolutionaries in the early 80s, when the hand of the USSR weakened. And over the course of 10 years, they formed an anti-Russian society there, predominantly made up of young people. Who eventually carried out coups in their countries, taking advantage of the fact that the Union has its own problems, and we have no time for them.
          So when we thought they were ours, they were ours. They became not ours when we stopped thinking about them :))

        What did they take there? The withdrawal of troops from the Baltic states was generally more like an escape. Staff members with access to material assets made a fortune, some of whom remained there. At the naval base in Liepaja, even sunken submarines were abandoned. One of them can be seen in the American film K-29. Well, at least the nuclear weapons were removed.

        Now all these air arsenals of Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Slovenia, East Germany, Albania, Hungary have been transferred to Ukraine.

        This sounds especially ominous given the fact that in total less than 100 MiG-29s were delivered to all of the above countries. At the same time, some were lost in accidents (for example, the Romanians lost 3 pieces in flight accidents). And, let’s say, the Slovenian Air Force simply does not have combat aircraft. However, the most the Albanian Air Force can please is a Chinese copy of the MiG-21.
        R.S. Back in December 2022, none other than General Gerasimov announced the official data of the Russian General Staff on the transfer of aircraft to Ukraine - 4 units (Su-25 from Macedonia, which were already Ukrainian). Since then, aircraft equipment has been transferred by Slovakia (13 MiG-29), Poland (14 MiG-29, met the figure of 28), the Czech Republic (Su-25 and helicopters) and Bulgaria (Mig-29 and Su-25). In short, there are 70 machines of all types in the ceiling.

      In essence, of course, you are right, but 200 MiG-29s, excuse me, is too much. The former ATS countries did not have that much in stock for 2022. Of these, even fewer are in flight-ready condition. A maximum of 50 relatively serviceable pieces were handed over, + for cannibalization. Poland and Slovakia were the first to transmit.

    If I understand correctly, VKS have started to work CORRECTLY. When struck by Geraniums and Calibers, the Su-shki walk on the awakened positions of the Ukrainian air defense and on the planes taking off from the airfields, making noise, as they should have done from the beginning!

    The Russian Armed Forces destroyed three enemy aircraft within 24 hours. One of them, the Su-24, was eliminated by our fighter aircraft in the Odessa area. In addition, Russian air defense forces shot down another Ukrainian Su-29 bomber, two MiG-8 fighters and a Mi-XNUMX helicopter.

    And if you count according to what is written, then four and a helicopter
    The downing by fighters over Odessa is encouraging - the air defense umbrella is weakening.

    Satellite IR photos clearly show whether the car arrived long ago, whether the tanks were recently filled, whether the parking lot was recently emptied, etc.

      What disguise? What are the IR images of aircraft tanks? What are you talking about? Just now it arrived at the airfield near Odessa. Minus 6 aircraft: four MiG-21s and a pair of L-39s. Everything grew into the ground a few years ago.

    Better tell us where more and more new Su-24s come from, about somewhere in Africa it doesn’t roll, it’s been dismantled and chewed up a long time ago that there’s nowhere to get them from, if the Ukrainians have mastered the reproduction of aircraft, budding, then where is our science looking, why didn’t the Su-57 start budding?

    If the Mig-29 is used now, it is as a suicide bomber interceptor because there are no air battles over Ukraine and these vehicles do not have long-range missiles that can shoot down someone from the LBS, so everything is fine with them in terms of survivability.

      They are unlikely to be. I read the note, the comments, and went online. I found some information on the composition of the Ukrainian Air Force (what happened before 2014, losses until 2022, non-combat losses, about confirmed losses since February 2022, some analysis of what and where they could have been restored). As a result: the number of Ukrainian Armed Forces aircraft shot down according to reports is overestimated by about 7 times, if not more.

    Do you have difficulty seeing or understanding written words? Did you serve in 2020 or 30 years ago? Read how many MiG-29s are left to serve in the German Air Force and how many were sold off.

    50 is unlikely, according to the photographs of the airbases from where the 29th disappeared, it looks like there are 25+ pieces, and cannibalizing an airplane can actually be quite limited, if, for example, the seals in the hydraulics die from old age, but on non-working machines that have been standing for a long time even faster than on flying ones , the same problem with electronics, capacitors bend faster on equipment that is not in use, engines in general on decommissioned machines have exhausted their service life, until the engine of a living aircraft is usually written off or serviceable engines are removed and installed on another machine. From what has stood for 10 years, not much can be removed.

    Jump airfields can be changed every day, but as for calculating, everything was invented a long time ago in WWII, and they knew how to pass off mock-ups and non-working decommissioned vehicles as working ones and vice versa, they even managed to make airfield runways unusable in appearance. And what about IR control satellites hovering over Ukraine in geostationary orbits? Satellite reconnaissance is especially weak like that of the Russian Federation for war in online format, a pleasant addition, nothing more. About IR control, it’s enough to roll out a decommissioned car onto the runway, turn on the gas at 20% power and voila - here you have an operational airfield, launch an Iskander at each mark, so you won’t get enough of them. I would like to know about the refueling time - how is it? Thermal footprint of a tanker? What if there are no gas station attendants at all and fuel is delivered in barrels by electric car or by hulk?

    The ATS countries received military equipment through offsets, and not as a gift or on loan; they gave us Ikarus and Java, we gave them T-72 and Mig-29. Read the history of the appearance of the Twarda tank, it was developed by the Poles on the basis of the T-72A because the USSR, in the opinion of the Poles, asked for an unaffordable amount for a license for the T-72B.
