#Russia Ukraine# Today's news is a bit heavy for military fans. On the outskirts of Chernihiv, Ukraine, a Su-34 fighter-bomber of the Russian Aerospace Force was hit by an anti-aircraft missile of the Ukrainian army while on an ultra-low altitude ground attack mission, followed by a crash of the plane and the catapult of two pilots. After landing, the pilot was wounded and captured, and the navigator was killed.
Ukraine is not Syria, and in the absence of absolute air supremacy, the Russian air and space military uses a high-performance Su-34 fighter-bomber to drop aviation bombs at ultra-low altitudes, which is very unscientific from the #military point of view. Fighters like the Su-34 should use weapons such as air-to-surface missiles, JDAM, laser-guided bombs at a safe altitude and a safe distance to strike precisely against the ground, not to perform the tasks of the Su-25 attack aircraft. Similarly, the use of third-generation aircraft and third-and-a-half-generation fighter jets, mounted rockets to attack the ground, can be of great significance in the modern war environment. Equipping a large number of air-to-surface missiles, laser-guided bombs, satellite-guided bombs, and small smart bombs is the more meaningful thing.
Hopefully, the downing of the Su-34 fighter jet will affect some things. Some old tactics really have to change their thinking.
The picture is transferred from the network, this time shot down su-34 fighter jets and pilot information, after a while, the Russian Ministry of Defense should have authoritative information.
