Points of attention
- The destruction of the Su-57 is a reputational disgrace for Putin and Russia, emphasizes expert Oleksandr Kovalenko.
- It is predicted that Ukrainian scouts will soon begin destroying T-14 "Armata" tanks located on the territory of Russia.
- The destruction of the most modern Russian Su-57 fighter jet was confirmed by satellite images.
DIU enters a new level of war with Russia
According to the expert, the first in history destruction of a modern Russian Su-57 fighter jet by Ukrainian forces indicates that there are no more unattainable goals for our soldiers.
Thanks to the filigree work of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, on June 8, on the territory of the airfield "Akhtubinsk" in the Astrakhan region, 589 km from the line of combat, a multifunctional fighter, supposedly of the fifth generation, Su-57 was hit, Kovalenko noted.
He also drew attention to the fact that this successful DIU operation is a reputational disgrace for dictator Putin and the entire Russian Federation.
By the way, it can be compared with the destruction of such aircraft as A-50 or Tu-95MS.
We can talk for a long time about the extent to which the Su-57 does not correspond to the class of the fifth generation fighter, but in this case the technical side is not so important as the reputational side, - explains the military-political observer.
Oleksandr Kovalenko also announced a forecast that soon Ukrainian scouts will begin destroying T-14 "Armata" tanks, which are currently on the territory of the aggressor country.
Here, the fried Su-57 is a direct example of the fact that nothing is impossible! - emphasized the expert.
