No idea, but that photo doesn't look like either.
The photo only seems to show a specific area, plenty of scope for areas outside the frame of the image to have runways and aircraft...
Russian AWACS should have been able to identify the terrain hugging missiles before they hit the target. But they missed.
AWACS cannot detect all things at 600km range, and even if they could they need to discern friendly from enemy and civilian aircraft.
No doubt HATO would have coordinated the attack for when they perceived a gap in the surveillance network... just like the Iranians did in Saudi Arabia when they attacked oil fields. The difference is that quite a number of Europes most stealthy attack missiles were shot down and only a couple made it through, whereas in the Middle East the missiles were not detected till they exploded on target.
Also, Russia has a relatively large satellite network that can also detect missiles like Storm Shadow.
Maybe you watch too many movies... they have hundreds of thousands of targets to watch over...
NATO radars are passing information to Ukraine. The exact nature of the information would be a secret, but Ukraine is getting the information and that's the reason why they blow the air raid sirens, before the missiles hit.
Which does not really seem to do much good for them in terms of stopping the missiles and drones...
Alien which crashed in Roswell claimed that he was from another planet but he died quickly after that due to severe wound Rolling Eyes
His corpse evaporated as well...
He will have ID papers they can publish if anyone questions the truth... they would not just discard the remains... returning them to Germany would be useful propaganda...
I won't call nonsense on the claim of a German crewed Uberkonistiger getting knocked out and the crew dying. However, it would be far more damning and credible to get dogtags, military id card, wallet, passport something other than dead krauts fighting for dying nazi state
Both sides have a track record regarding telling lies and the record for Russia in my opinion is rather more reliable than that of Kiev.
I wanted to know if the cruise missile attack was targeting a military airfield or the civilian airport in the city because
the post mentioned the "airport" as base of the Su-24s.
I would suspect they would have the Su-24s hidden amongst trees and covered with tent material or in sheds when not in use.
Having it near a helicopter base or civilian airport would allow fuel and support to operate without drawing suspicion that it might be being used for military purposes.
satellite network that can also detect missiles like Storm Shadow.
If satellites were so amazing then why waste money on AWACS and JSTARS and heavy drones with electronic equipment on them...
So if Ukraine fired 3 dozen Storm Shadows and a few were able to hit the target it could be because
(a)they were not detected on time;
(b)Black Sea HQ did not have enough interceptor missiles.
Because if the Pk 0.70 - 0.83 holds true then all these 36 Storm Shadows should have been intercepted.
Your grasp of maths is lacking... a PK of 0.7 to 0.8 means seventy to eighty percent of targets will be effectively hit with one missile, but with them all being launched together, along with other ballistic weapons (S-200) and decoys and no doubt also their own anti ship missiles (neptunes) then it becomes a case that the defences of the night were overwhelmed and a few missiles got through.
The attack will be analysed and the defences probably modified and beefed up so a repeat of that attack will probably be rather less successful.
Any forces involved in a proxy war will never have the items listed by you with them during an operation in a combat zone. your demand for the presentation of such identification marks is simply meaningless.
Then send them the index fingers and they can do a DNA check. It is likely the bodies will be returned to the Orcs, or in this case perhaps returned directly to Germany so the Ukraine can't destroy the evidence and deny the claims that these men are not dead and are just missing... so they don't have to pay compensation.
Publishing such details of the dead is something that Ukronazi bastards do. Russia must not stoop to those levels, she is better than that.
Not for propaganda, but to return the bodies to their families to show they are actually dead is the right thing to do.
