They don’t have IFF? You’d think that would be essential when both sides have the same aircraft.

My skepticism meter just automatically goes up a few notches when I see the following phrases in a title regarding the war in Ukraine:
Ukraine claims
Ukraine says
Zelensky claims
Zelensky says
Russia claims
Russia says
Putin says
Putin claims

...Russians at first commented believing that a Ukrainian plane had been shot down. The video was then reportedly deleted after it became clear that it was a Russian bomber.
Trust, but verify.

Shooting down one’s own aircraft has been a thing since WWI. Ground based AA artillery are infamous for indiscriminately firing on every plane they see. IFF can help but never discount buck fever.

Technically the SU34 isn’t a bomber. Ain’t media accuracy impressive?
The SU34 is a fighter/bomber not a “bomber”.

Are they certain it wasn’t the Ghost of Kyiv?
It’s a good thing Russia brought all those mobile incinerators!

Photos show that this air wreckage destroyed some Ukrainian field crops.

Good news, comrade! The SAM works!

$36M for a fighter-bomber equivalent to the F-15E? I don’t think so. Not even by Russia’s creative accounting methods.

Russia announces a 300,000 Ruble reward for shooting down an enemy aircraft and hours later a Russian SU-34 is shot down by friendly fire. I think the idiot who did it will be a little disappointed in the “reward” he receives.
