Yurii Ihnat, Air Force Command spokesman, on Facebook Quote: "The aggressors' manned aircraft did not actually enter the range of Ukrainian Air Defence on 2 May. Instead, the enemy continues to launch missile strikes and to increase the presence of unmanned aerial vehicles in Ukrainian airspace, which provide targeting instructions to artillery, carry out air reconnaissance and fire correction. On 2 May, the Air Defence of the Air Force and the Land Forces shot down eight aerial targets - one 'Forpost' and seven 'Orlan-10' UAVs. It is worth noting that the 'Forpost' drone, shot down by the antiaircraft missile troops unit of 'Pivden' (South) Task Force, is an expensive device valued at $7 million. This is a licensed Israeli copy of the 'Searcher' UAV (its basic version is capable of reconnaissance at altitudes up to 5 km for 16 hours with a range of up to 400 km - ed.). According to the aggressors' Ministry of Defence, in 2019 all the parts of this UAV underwent import substitution, Russian software was installed and it could carry weapons - a container with an ATGM missile. Well, as you may have guessed, it is 'unique'!" Details: The Air Force Command spokesman stressed that Ukrainian Air Force aircraft has continued to fight the aggressors from the air, using various types of weaponry, inflicting powerful strikes at the invaders' positions, convoys, logistics and manpower

Drenimarcus:


Drones worth $7 million . Their lies and propaganda is pathetic.

plaindealer:
Obviously, small Ukrainian military are far better, superior and competent than the Russian military.

Just imagine, Russia the so called superpower can't defeat small and a less equipped Ukrainian forces and not only that, they are so good that they stalled Russian advancements, they've managed to destroy countless Russian tanks and military hardware, they've destroyed many Russian boats including their $740 million flagship, the pride of Russia.

On top of that, they've killed 9 or 10 Russian generals, unheard of in any war in the history of mankind.

Just imagine Ukraine evenly armed just like Russia, Ukraine would have won the war since...

Russian military is a piece of garbage.

alcuin:


Stop all these nonsense.

If Russia is that weak, why has NATO not officially joined the war already.

Just imagine, its Iran doing what Russia is currently doing.

Russia is fighting over 20 countries via proxy yet you call them weak?

Even the Pentagon will not make such statement.

plaindealer:



lol... What is this one talking about?

Why must NATO step I'm? For what?

Ukraine is dealing with Russia appropriately .

Btw, Pentagon will not make what statement?

Is it a secret that the Russian military is worthless or that after weeks of war with small Ukraine, they still can not defeat a small and less armed country or a that small Ukraine already eliminated 9-10 Russian generals, destroyed and sank many Russian warships, destroyed countless Russian military equipment?

So this a secret?

Go and rest abeg.

alcuin:


SMH.


I don't argue with people with limited knowledge.

So, it's okay.

Drenimarcus:


Lyov is being pummeled with missiles right now and there is air siren all over Ukraine. Ukraine is on their 4th mobilization. Everyday, there is air sirens all over Ukraine.

The Russians are defeated, bankrupt, out of weapons and too inept, that’s was USA and UK report in Early April.
They said Russia has run out of missiles then today Russia started taking out Ukraine electricity and oil

Drenimarcus:



Western equipment, reception and training centers, routes where Western equipment is delivered to the Eastern Front, command centers, infrastructure, air defense systems, improvised airports, fuel and ammunition depots. The number of destroyed locations that were hit today is THREE-DIGITS, and the attacks are still going on.

seunny4lif:
Funny things is Russia is still paying Ukraine millions of Euros everyday
If Ukraine is serious, they should cut off the gas and oil pipelines
