Russian aviation has air superiority. This was told by the commander of the air forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Mykola Oleshchuk. According to him, the Ukrainian plane enters the affected area immediately after takeoff.
“Our planes, when they go to strike, they are fired upon every minute. During the mission, each time our pilot is hit by five to nine aircraft of different types <…> Our plane does not have time to rise from the airfield, as it is already in the fighter’s kill zone, ”Oleshchuk said on the air of the We-Ukraine TV channel.
The day before, the Russian Defense Ministry reported that Russian fighters shot down Ukrainian Su-25 attack aircraft near the village of Verolyubovka in the DPR. The same plane was shot down near the village of Malaya Tokmachka in the Zaporozhye region.
