Glide bombing. Please understand.

This dude >>62130699 says Stinger.
If it something polish it is some sort of Strela, but the performance seems to good for that. As far as I know the Grom hasn't been given to Ukraine.

Could be a Stinger.

Could be a RBS-17

They're desperate and needy over Vovchansk, but the counter offensive has well and truly begun. Turns out Budanov didn't just send Kraken, but Shaman as well.
>>
>>62130851
You misunderstand. The plane was gliding. Also the bomb. They've decided to one-up the Ukrainians and their tiny-plane-turned-drone scheme. Entirely autonomous, comrade. Parachute is ejection of computer for walking back to airfield and re-installation into next jet.

Funny how Russians said that they didn't lose any Su-25 that day...the same way how they said they didn't lose any of those other fighter jets

The Kharkiv offensive uncovered a few crash sites of Russian jets shot down behind their own lines.
The S-500 hit has not been cleared for release like the first S-400 hit was.

>>
>>62131407
You'd have to know you're being targeted.
This is pretty complicated since IR guided missiles do not give off any easily detectable signature like radar or laser guided ones.
I don't think Su-25 has any MAW that would work against IR missiles so unless you literally see the launch, you won't know you have a missile on your tail.

Excellent cockpit simulator.
Bad game.
The modern combat flight sim community is split between DCS and the BMS mod for Falcon 4.
Falcon 4 had a dynamic campaign which has not been matched to this day, although it can give you nonsensical missions due to the inherent randomness it gives off the feel of real war as destroying bridges, rail and enemy factories will have an effect on the theater. BMS basically only has the F-16, every other aircraft is a reskinned F-16 with the parameters tweaked to better match the differences in airframes.
DCS has extremely detailed systems but it suffers from Early Access Syndrome in many modules, there's some drama with money issues between Eagle Dynamics and a developer called Razbam which leaves the future of a few modules uncertain, there's some jank where for example BVR missile performance is sandbagged, the air defense AI is brain dead and easy to bait (there's the Skynet IADS script which improves things), and you have no "game" to play. You have to create your own fun, download others' custom missions, buy campaigns, and if you want use a dynamic campaign generator which creates mission files for you to load but it's 100% an external tool made by the community rather than part of the official game.
The advantage of BMS is that Falcon 4 is cheap as hell. DCS sales are so frequent there's not a lot of incentive to acquire stuff for full price but if you want to learn more than one plane the costs add up.

may I have 2 cents on this "it is videogame lmao" russian bullshittery?
You see, russians have this telegram "Fact checker" "War on Fakes" (often shown on RT and Rossiya-1) that shows how everything is disinformation and everything is videogame footage or photoshop or CIA moonlanding-tier film trickery. They can in real time disprove actual factual imagery because their board of experts agrees that it is actually fake and you can see some mistake in this red circle (you cannot). I am europoor and my national (public service - BBC like) TV started its own "disinfo disproving" show, which while honest (it disproves things like "covid vaccines have microchips in them") is absolutely uneffective, because people who believe this bullshit dont watch mainstream TV, people who watch it think its bullshit that anyone believes in such crap, and I worry that it makes the Russian "hoax disproval" more valid (cause they can say the West does the same).
Currently everything is AI footage (I have seen quite recent AI videos, they still lack concepts of basic physics and object permanence when longer than 5s).
Here we can see the level of detail no GPU known to man can run Arma 3 on (but I believe this is what it looks like when you set it to ultra), things like wind caused by rocket propulsion (and tree softly reacting to it), aerosol caused visual attenuation, FIELD FULL OF WHEAT WITH TINY LEAVES, yet some idiot says its digital trickery.

>>62131407
Flight time from launch to missile impact is seven seconds. The missile is launched from the 4-o-clock pocket, which is a blind spot that's not covered by the mirrors in the cockpit and requires the pilot to look pretty much as hard to the right as he can.. while flying an attack run at a couple hundred meters. A second or two of inattention at that altitude will kill you.
Neither plane reacts, which means they very likely had no idea it was even in the air until the wingman's engine exploded

The Su-25SM3 (latest modernization) should have Zakhvat UV-based missile approach warning system and an ECM suite.
The thing is, so far the Russian air force has only received about 30 of these and also the reliability of the MAW isn't really all that great if the Ka-52's suite is anything to go by (Alligator pilots would often just turn the whole thing off because apparently it would constantly screech false positives at them, which is probably how they got rekt by beam-riding Stugnas repeatedly.)

There's so many videos of MANPADS hitting Russian aircraft and they're not even aware of it. They perform terrain hugging and other mitigation efforts, but it's still not enough. For comparison, 79% of Soviet aircraft engaged with Stingers were shot down during the Soviet-Afghan war. The seekers for most have only gotten more advanced, yet the aircraft have remained relatively static. They learned nothing and the same problems keep coming back.
