the Russian Su-57 aircraft is used by the invaders for attacks on Ukraine, but they try to keep it at a long distance, since it can also be shot down by Ukrainian air defense.
About it on the air of the telethon told spokesman of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Major Ilya Yevlash.
It should be noted that yesterday it was from this plane that missiles were launched over Ukraine. Ilya Yevlash noted that what kind of rockets these are can be assessed only when they are in the hands of experts.
“The Russians have used the Su-57 aircraft before, but they are trying to keep it at a long distance, as it can be hit by our anti-aircraft defenses. And this is a rather expensive and unique “rattle” for them, which they keep. It is an expensive and kind of toy for them,” he said.
Note that the armament complex of the Russian Su-57 fighter jet includes the Kh-69 missile. It was these new cruise missiles that the occupiers probably used during the attack on Ukraine on April 11.
As reported by ArmiyaInform, in February 2024, the Kyiv Institute of Forensic Expertise first started researching the Russian Kh-69 cruise missile.
Earlier, the price of the issue of Russian aviation losses was named.
