The russian-Ukrainian conflict is the most cattle dark horse, the Ukrainian Air Force MiG 29 shot down the Russian Air Force Su 35, the most cattle ace in 40 years was born?
In this Russian-Ukrainian war, at the beginning of the war, Russia first used cruise missiles and tactical missiles to carry out precision strikes against important targets such as Ukrainian airfields and arsenals. Judging from the video footage published on the Internet, the base of the Ukrainian army attacked by the Russian missile was seriously damaged and can no longer be used.
There is also news that the two sides have engaged in air combat, the most prominent in this war is the Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter, there are videos showing miG-29 fighters flying at low altitude, and then Ukraine said on the Internet that a MiG-29 fighter shot down 6 Russian fighters in 1 day, including 2 Su-35, 1 Su-27, 1 MiG-29 and 2 Su-25 fighters. According to statistics, this result is the biggest in 40 years. The outside world is suspicious of this achievement, and it is impossible to shoot down multiple fighters in one day.
In the first round of attacks of the Russian army, the airports of the Ukrainian Air Force were all within the range of the Russian army, and most of the airport facilities and fighters were damaged. In this case, the Ukrainian Air Force fighters are difficult to combat, the logistics are not guaranteed, and even the pilots have to brave strong pressure to fight russian fighters.
Many years ago, the Ukrainian Air Force was the fourth largest air force in the world, with more than 2,000 combat aircraft of various types, including 19 Tu-160 strategic bombers, and later fell for the United States, 8 of which were repaid to Russia, and the rest were destroyed. Some netizens also lamented that it is also okay to sell two to China.
Over time, Ukraine's economic situation has been declining, and Ukraine has not been able to maintain a strong air force. We all know that the Air Force is one of the most expensive services. The Ukrainian Air Force pilots are undertrained and fewer and fewer fighters are able to take off. Since 2014, when the Ukrainian Air Force was on a mission, it found that few fighters could be started.
Before the start of this war, Ukraine's Su-27 and MiG-29 fighters added up to less than 40 fighters, these fighters are still products of the Soviet period, the airborne equipment is backward, the weapons used can only fight at close range, can not launch medium-range air-to-air missiles, and there is no support for early warning aircraft and other aircraft, and the Russian army also has the support of the S400 air defense system.
As can be seen from the video on the Internet, there are a small number of fighters flying in the air, and it is not excluded that several fighters have survived the fire of the Russian precision strike. However, if you want to shoot down the Russian Su-35 fighter, it is unlikely, the Su-35 fighter's radar and avionics equipment are the latest, and can launch R-77 active radar air-to-air missiles, and even the ultra-long-range air-to-air missiles with a range of 400 kilometers have been developed.
From the released video, a Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter shot down the Su-27 fighter, which is unlikely in reality, and some netizens said that it was a video in the game. The MiG-29 was slightly inferior in range and speed to the Russian Su-27. It is still certain that the current MiG-29 fighters of the Ukrainian army will attack the Su-25 fighters and helicopters.
In short, in the author's opinion, the so-called achievements of the Ukrainian Air Force are deliberately created in order to boost the morale of their own officers and soldiers, and the pilots train dozens of hours a year. Even if it is opened and hung, it is not so fierce. Another point is that the Ukrainian pilots did not have the courage to fight with the Russian fighters, on the day of the war, there was a Ukrainian Su-27 escaped, the missiles on the plane hung slowly, that is, did not dare to fight with the Russian army. #俄乌冲突 #
