Sorry. Not pilot incompetence. His incompetent ground crew killed him.

US dollars will continue to flow uninterrupted to the money laundering capital of the world. The DC regime benefits too much to stop.

That’s got to be poor maintenance.

“Those are some well-trained warfighters on the Russian side..”
I think it was most likely a maintenance problem. The flight was a simple take-off and bank, second-nature for a pilot if there are no mechanical or avionic issues.

“You can see part of his wing tip come off just before the crash. He hit the other jet on take off. No chutes.”
I did not see that. You must have good eyes. If that is the case, then it looks like pilot error.

“You could see when they went past the camera that one jet was out in front of the other...”
Which is normal.
“...but he must have caught up.”
Yup.

It’s not a fighter, it’s a subsonic close air support plane.

But was he vaxxed?
He was. It would have been much worse had he not.
