When I met with Ukraine pilots Juice (left) and Moonfish (right) I had a sick feeling they wouldn’t make it through the war. Juice died in Aug 2023, Moonfish died on Monday. They fought like hell for Ukraine, and the F16. Nickel on the grass men. Slava Ukrainii
Oleksii Mes’, a pilot of the Ukrainian Air Force, heroically fought his last battle in the skies.
On August 26, during a massive russian missile and air strike, Oleksii shot down three cruise missiles and one strike UAV. He saved countless Ukrainians from deadly russian missiles, tragically at the cost of his own life.
We will never forget you.
🕯️ Oleksiy Mes, a pilot of an F-16 fighter jet with the Ukrainian 40th Tactical Aviation Brigade, died during a combat sortie on August 26 while repelling a Russian mass missile strike targeting Ukrainian infrastructure.
“The Ukrainian Defence Forces do not believe pilot error was behind the incident, the source added.
The pilot, Oleksiy Mes known as “Moonfish,” was killed in the crash while “repelling the biggest ever aerial attack” by Russia against Ukraine, said the source, adding that the pilot was buried on Thursday.”

Putin's newest corpsegrinder in Northern Ukraine not looking good for russia as FIRMS data confirming that after one month, 30k russians haven't managed to take even 20% of the city.
The growth rate of the Russian economy is above the world average - Putin.
Russia is already ahead of Japan and Germany in terms of economic size, but it needs to ensure stable growth further, Putin added.
Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov listens to these statements by Putin with an indescribable expression on his face.
