✔️ Pike to the depths - scouts in the Black Sea destroyed the Russian Su-30SM

🌊 During the operation in the waters of the Black Sea, soldiers of the special unit of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine destroyed a Russian Su-30SM combat aircraft with a MANPADS hit.

☝️ The fighter that fell into the sea belonged to the 43rd separate naval aviation regiment of the Russian Armed Forces, which is based at the airfield of the city of Saka in the temporarily occupied Crimea.

❗️ The occupiers lost contact with their warship on September 11, 2024 around 5 am. Roughly three hours later, the Russians launched a search and rescue operation involving the An-26 aircraft, as well as Mi-8 and Ka-27 helicopters.

⚡️ At lunchtime, the invaders reported to the command about a characteristic stain from aviation fuel discovered in the sea, 70 kilometers northwest of Cape Tarkhankut, and soon they also saw the wreckage of the destroyed Su-30SM.

💰 The cost of such an aircraft is approximately 50 million dollars.

⚔️ The fight continues!

🇺🇦 Glory to Ukraine!

Should have stayed home. End the war, don't lose expensive planes and pilots.

It's as easy as that.

Second best time: withdraw now. Don't lose more material and people.
