Russians confirmed that one Su-35S was destroyed in the Kursk sector. According to Ukrainian sources the Russian plane was downed by a F-16.
It is likel that Ukrainian F-16 fighters are already aided by type ASC890 surveillance crafts. Sweden announced to transfer two planes of that AEW&C type back in 2024. Its radar can track targets up to 400 km (250 miles) away.
@LeDauof_ It is actually true what he says, but the forest needs to be much bigger in such cases. They have bombed forests in Sweden with warplanes when there have been forest fires
Earlier today, a U.S. Air Force B-1B Lancer and B-52H Stratofortress, joined by a pair of Swedish Gripens, conducted a flyover of Stockholm.
This comes as Sweden enters the final stages of joining the NATO alliance.
Seems like a massive missile and drone attack will be underway soon in Ukraine. Russia's Black Sea fleet have launched cruise missiles at the same time that 14 Tu-95Ms are airborne and heading to launching positions over the Caspian Sea.
Shahed drones have also been reported in multiple Ukrainian regions.
