On May 5, Ukrainian forces celebrated another “victory”. Videos showing an aircraft intercepted in Ukraine was widely spread on the social media with reports that a Russian Su-25 was shot down near the town of Orekhovo in the Zaporozhye region.
However, later Russian sources shared another video from a drone showing that a Ukrainian aircraft was destroyed over the Donbass front lines. It was reportedly intercepted by Ukrainian forces. The pilot was reportedly killed as a result of the accident.
UPDATE:
The plane shot down in the Zaporozhye region on May 5, was identified as a Su-27P of the Ukrainian Air Force, deployed with the AFU 9th brigade, in Ozernoye, in the Zhytomyr region. The number of the aircraft was confirmed by the footage of the debris.
On May 6, the General Staff of Ukraine in its morning summary confirmed that an aircraft was downed, but claimed it was Russian. Thus, it was once again confirmed that the official data shared by the AFU cannot be trusted.

So… that’s why the Russians haven’t finished completely destroying the Ukrainian air defenses.
Many Manpads and AA assets are being operated by untrained personnel.
That’s the entire Ukrainian army, isn’t it?

How do they find them? The only time they can be “seen” electronically is when they switch on their targeting radar. Remember scud hunting in Iraq during the Gulf war? The USA had special aircraft over the Iraqi desert and special forces teams trying to hunt down scud launchers … Iraq launched 30 missiles without the USA finding a single launcher. There are a lot more places to hide launchers in populated and forested Ukraine than in the open Iraqi desert.
The tactic the Ukrainians are using is called the Serbian defence. They move often and wait in ambush then scoot once a missile has been fired. Very hard to hunt them down.
Hit in low flight with IR missile.
Guys, please do a check on the dates before you publish. I’ve seen many recent articles with May dates. It has been June for a week
There are multiple formats for dates my friend.
True, but SF writes May by letters. I don’t care about it, because easy to understand it was June actually and the SF is not MSM with half-billion budget and large staff.
They’re Europeans, they don’t know how to write dates in Freedom order.
You’re right! I see a lot of daisies being pushed up in Ukraine already.
This was not a friendly fire incident. This plane was shot down by a Russian fighter
Somebody wonder why Russian haven’t finished to completely destroy Ukrainian air defenses. … Either the Russian are not capable of hitting the 5 remaining airports in ucraine, or they are not willing to do so.
Just yesterday Putin said that if Ucraine will use missiles with 80+km range, than Russia will “strike those faculties that currently remain unaffected”. Think about it, what does it mean?
From the point of view of Russia, this military operation is limited, it is NOT a full blown war. Else it would be finished long ago.
An intelligent observer can understand why russia is moving slowly (but surely)… to minimize casualties while maximizing the damage of the other part. The “other part” is not just Ucraine, but this is another topic.
How about the Generals? Are they traitors sent by Putin to the slaughterhouse?
How about the Joint Forces Operation to ethnically cleanse and indoctrinate the population of Donbas with kooky Ukrainian OUA rubbish? Just about got those rascally separtists driven across the Russian border and everybody jerking off to portraits of Roman Shukhevych?
ukrops emulating amerikants
fake news, thare is no proof that this aircraft belongs to ukr or russian invaders. Just stick with facts SF
Friendly fire… it happens in a war.
We seen this over and over again during the Iraq war. Where it was called blue on blue! The Americans in particular have a habit of hitting their own units or that of their nato allies like the crew of a British army tank in Iraq from a US airforce fast jet killing all members of the tank crew or striking their own American ground troops in bombing runs and so on. It looks like the Ukrainian military are following the same path with a less than professional approach to their actions. If I was on active service with any of the Ukrainian military units I would be more worried about becoming another blue on blue statistic and constantly looking over my shoulder to see what idiot was literally calling the shots.
excellent training by the western colonizers.
What idiots to shoot their own aircraft!
easy mistake when both sides use the same type of aircraft
Looked like that may have been their last plane, there have been no Ukranian manned aircraft strikes since.
it’s come down to a trickle lately.
They could sell it to LDPR instead of such useless waste.)
why would separatists buy what they will eventually get for free anyways? They have rearmed three times since 2014 thanks to the assistance of the west and incompetence of the UA and its lack of battlefield prowess. Now Russia gives them every weapon captured while ukrops gave them 9 years of battlefield experience and every single piece of military hardware not destroyed since 2014 to date. I’m sure they are going to love the new MLRS as soon as one is abandoned.
well, that saves RU a missile or two.
I hate to see Slavs killing Slavs. Or the other way around too.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
They are shouting like DAESH junkies, one more similarity in long list.
Accurately identifying friendly/enemy aircraft is crucial and the further away and faster the aircraft is moving, the more difficult it is. These UKROP fools couldn’t identify their own mother-in-law if she flew past them on a broomstick.
It was only practice shot by UKROPS. They need to learn how to use all these weapons and own plane is best target drill :)
Except that in the photo & video of the supposed crashed jet is definitely NOT an Su-25 …! Looks like an Su-27 or later model. …Possibly even a Mig. …but it is not an Su-25….which only has one vertical stabilizer
agree. The tail section and the lack of armoured ‘bathumb seems to indicate a MiG-29 or Su-27 type, surely not a Sukhoy 25 that also, would habe been more resistant to a MANPADS.
Get ready for some discounter Manpads (no not the transgendermutant retard manly girl and girly man Natostan tampons) coming home to Urupp to roost and some Ryanairs getting whacked by “climate change activists”. Every nutter can now buy Natostan junk cheap on the dark net. Just make sure “the use by date” is still active and that the batteries in these giZmos are in functioning order as opposed to most of the scrap foisted on the Ukroppers who are left holding suicide pipes when confronted by Mr Bear’s tanks.
With friends like Natostan and USSA who needs enemie$
Definitely not Su-25, most likely Su-27
Well, Su-25 isn’t double tailed… should be obvious for everyone except dumbed down pindo vassals.
mistake… maybe also years ago on the civilian one…
MORONS LOL
Oops! US and nato weapons aren’t particular. Like the USadmin and nato itself, they will attack anything and everything.
That is one of the reasons Ukrainians never had any chance to win anything in this conflict. They are utter inapt imbeciles who can’t fight and will shoot on everything and everyone in front of them, even their own people. The Ukrainian regime is nothing but a corrupt and highly criminal gang that has been lying most of the time since the beginning. They deserve their looming defeat. So does the US and NATO.
Russia and China are in charge from February on.
They also shot down that Malaysian airlines airplane thinking it was Putin’s plane returning from a meeting in the West.
Well done uaf. Keep it up. You are reducing the work load of Russian air defence
