"To participate in the training in Dnepropetrovsk from the airbase of Kulbakino 229 tactical brigade aviation in Nikolaev two Su-25 planes were sent. They were given the task of conducting aerial reconnaissance and identifying control targets in the area where the ATO group was concentrated west of Donetsk ”
source said.“After the entry of one of the aircraft into the detection zone of the Buk air defense missile system, it was taken to escort a battery combat crew, located near the town of Zaroshchenskoye. Apparently, by some tragic accident, after some time, the flight routes of the Malaysian Boeing and Su-25, despite the difference in flight levels, coincided, merging on the screen into one large point, which was fatal for a civilian side - at the moment of convergence of targets on one azimuth, the tracking system is automatically rebuilt to maintain the one that has the largest area ”
