An air group of two SU fighter jets (34 and 35) and two support helicopters flew over the Bryansk region to launch a “missile-bomb attack” (officially) on the civilian population of Chernihiv region in Ukraine. The air group was destroyed by “unidentified persons.” Justice, as it is, and instant karma: the aircraft must have been downed by Russians themselves. Russian air defense sometimes works and helps Ukraine to win!

The Russian state news agency TASS reported on Saturday that a Russian Su-34 warplane had crashed in that region but did not specify a cause.

TASS also reported an emergency services official saying an engine fire in a Russian helicopter had caused it to crash near the city of Klintsy in Bryansk, about 40 km (25 miles) from the border with Ukraine. The report made no mention of the Su-35 or of a second Russian helicopter crashing or being shot down.

It gets worse than losing four irreplaceable aircraft.

Plant producing MiG engines on fire in Moscow. Warehouses near CHP plant burn in region Fire breaks out at plant producing engines for MiG fighters in Moscow, 3 injured

Combat aircraft go through a lot of engines, and the Mig-29 plant and warehouses caught fire. The planes can not be replaced because they rely on foreign electronic parts. Fewer engines to keep them will limit the flying time of the fighters that use those engines.

Russia lost more land in a week than they took in months, lost four planes, lost a fighter engine plant and warehoused engines.

Cake, icing, cherry on top.
