Not sure it’s “humiliating”. The most common jet shot down on both sides is the su-25. It’s a subsonic, very tough, ground attack jet, extremely similar (and some say superior to) the USA A-10 warthog.. (Reasonable minds differ in this regard; they both have advantages and disadvantages.)

Regardless, the jets, as cool as they are, are outmatched and just a flying target when confronting a sophisticated enemy with quality MANPADs and other air defenses. Still useful for killing Mohammedan savages, though.

how much did THIS cost US? :)

what’s our debt?

how much have we given?

how much more will we give?

what would we do if China or Russia formed an alliance with Mexico...a military one, that allowed them to put all kinds of weapons there?

just curious

cuban missile crisis comes to mind.

putin’s not a good guy...just saying...some questions need answers as to why we are getting neck deep in this war.

This is a 10 billion dollar arcade game.

Waste of money, and very risky as to nukes.

The Dem mach9ne is making huge vigorish off this war, funding things like the Soros BLM,ANTIFA, and Jew Hating movements in the USA.

STOP THIS WAR.

The video has Zelensky talking about a plan to end the war. He was maintaining with Biden and Harris in September. He also wants to meet with Trump.

Only 8 million for a Russian fighter jet?

(There are twin engine Cessna jets more expensive than that.
