The Ukrainian Air Force reports the downing of another Russian Su-34.

“This time, I can say that the Su-35 pilot was lucky - he maneuvered out of the way and is no longer taking any risks. And the Su-34 crew joins our ‘Eternal flight, brothers’ section,” Air Force commander Mykola Oleschuk adds.

the Su-35 pilot was lucky - he maneuvered out of the way and is no longer taking any risks.

This indicates the Su-35s are flying escort for the Su-34s.

So, when the Su-34s explodes, the S-35s perform a 9g turn to a heading of 090.

💥 At least 65 Russian fascists eliminated with cluster munitions fired by Ukrainian HIMARS just as they assumed morning formation around 9am in occupied Donetsk.

This has been posted many times on X (formerly twitter).

None of the posts discuss target intel...how did UKF get the precise location of the formation.

My guess is OPSEC, COMSEC, possibly some ELINT, and partisans were involved.

“downing of another Russian Su-34.”

Denys Davydov reports that 149 (+) of those aircraft have been produced, but that probably only half of them were airworthy.
