After FAB-3000 with UMPC comes Tu-22M3M and Tu-160M2 dropped FAB-5000/9000 with UMPC.

Considering Ukraine has very few fighter jets ....why would they park them so close together? Something is not right here.

[Gutucomedy]

it is true if Telegraph reported like this

[juhocafe]

its an entire air force of some countries being wiped out in one go

[-Liquid-]

Now imagine if this were an F-16. This is a lost war, why is it being spent on Ukraine?

[hyy]

Air defense systems has been transferred?

[Dolbayob-]

even Ukrainian telegram channels confirmed the hit: 4 planes were destroyed and 2 more were damaged

[MrTitnik]

Im no specialist but why is the planes out In the open?

[Tbone]

I hope they not F-16's. They will be out of luck if they parked them there!

[joemac]

From the smoke locations - it appears the area ‘around’ the airfield and some runway might have been damaged

[pascalmoussaoui]

Because it is the only airfield close to Crimea and the Russian border, which was used for attacks
This is the problem of NATO, which thinks that they have the most intelligence, thinking that the Russians had observation drones that can go that far, problem the Russians who have a horror of vacuums, have created observation drones that can go now to the depths of Ukraine

[AbcDino]

Interesting choices by the Ukrainians.

[whoeveryuareasdf]

this is very central ukraine, I'm concerned how a russian UAV was able to get here undetected without being shot down

[EverettLang]

This footage doesn’t appear to show anything being hit! 😂

[nocommentarychannel]

FAB shovels and Hypersonic Shovels are truely advanced than aliens tech

[ohyeh]

Did this include the jets painted on the ground?

[caturskak]
