Note that this article is from three days ago. There's still only one F-16 destroyed.

look Russia's destroying them as fast as the west can deliver, if you want to see more F-16s destroyed then the west gotta step up the F-16 delivery pipeline

The cause of the crash was not a direct result of an enemy missile strike, the Ukrainian military claims.

Guess there was just an unrelated Russian attack going on when he flew into the ground.

Edit: Apparently that was correct, the Russian attack was unrelated, it was taken out by a patriot missile

Let’s remember all the laughs about friendly Russian fire and doubts surrounding that claim.

So when Russia is going to give the final touch?

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

The way things are going likely end of this year or early next year. All depends on how long AFU can hold out in Donbas where their lines collapsed.
