Not likely. Ukraine has no air superiority.
Russia owns the skies.
You must be confused. Or just stupid.

However, Ukraine, while it does have pilots, lacks the technology necessary to overcome even the relatively inferior aerial assault mounted by the Russians. That lack of airpower has resulted in what the Royal United Services Institute, an English think tank, described in November as serious casualties on the Ukrainian side primarily due to “being totally technologically outmatched and badly outnumbered.”

JUST APPLES AND ORANGES
You are not stupid. We were discussing the inferiority of Russian tanks. You are discussing Russian military aircraft

I read Ukrainian forces have even shot down Russian Su-35 fighter jets with MANPADS missiles!
Does anyone know about the reality of [or can explain] this new Electromagnetic Railgun weapon?

Russia cannot overfly Ukrainian territory with manned aircraft as the Ukrainian air defense system is still active, extremely dangerous vs manned aircraft, and Russia seems to have only a poor SEAD capability.
That is why all their strategic strikes are done with cruise missiles. This limits severely their ability to inflict serious damage on Ukraine. If they could overfly Ukraine with reasonable safety they could drop far more ordnance far more accurately. And cheaply.
This lack of air superiority also makes it nearly impossible to conduct interdiction vs Ukrainian forces. If they had that ability they would be able to intercept moving convoys, trains, transient targets like accumulations of vehicles, and immobile targets like bridges, overpasses and even culverts, which are difficult to target (because of lack of real time observation), hit or destroy with their cruise missiles.
Had the Russians been able to do all that US-style Air Power flexing they would have won long ago.
