Pudotetut Su-34 vaivaavat mieltäni. Tässä yksi mahdollinen selitys - ryssän järjestelmiin olisi päästy käsiksi niin, että pilotti huomaa ohjuksen vasta siinä vaiheessa kun tussahtaa. Tämähän olisi varsin mainio uutinen
15 planes shot down : Russian avionics might be compromised - Kyivpost
"According to Austrian aviation war expert Tom Cooper, a probable but as-yet unproven and unconfirmed explanation for the recent string of Sukhoi shoot-downs is the compromise of confidential defensive electronic systems aboard the Russian jets to Ukrainian and US technicians, and tweaks made to Ukrainian-operated anti-aircraft systems taking advantage of the knowledge."
"Aside from entire aircraft, Ukrainian forces have captured critical components that would be predictable targets for research and counter-measure development. One of the widest-reported was the Sept. 2022 recovery by Ukrainian troops of an RTU 518-PSM self-protection jamming pod, a cutting edge defense system, on a crashed Su-30 fighter jet. The Su-34 and Su-35 both typically carry the pod."
Accordingly, the compromised system does not detect incoming missiles any longer
