Continuing the demilitarization of Russian aerospace forces.

Today, in the area of the Pokrovske Triangle (an anomalous zone where enemy aircraft crash), another enemy Su-25 lost communication.

Two Ruscist pilots had the audacity to fly very close to our positions. For their insolence, one of them was instantly punished.

This is the result of yet another flawless hunt by the mysterious anti-aircraft phantoms of Donbas from the 110th Separate Mechanized Brigade!

Eternal downfall to the occupiers!

The battle continues! The "Empire" must collapse!

Mach 2.2 or 745 m/s

Was the plane downed or did it keep flying? I couldn't tell from the video.

I merged two videos together. Skip to 0:34.

Wow, I knew the planes were flying low but I'm still impressed that there was a spotter drone at a higher altitude.
