A Ukrainian MiG-29 has crashed in the Odessa region while trying to shoot down a Geran-4 Seeker jet drone. Either the jet drone shot it down (by hitting at it) or it shot itself down somehow xDhttps://files.catbox.moe/e4r7zd.mp4
>>540550403If the jet was destroyed by the kamikaze drone, it would be first such happening in history xD
>>540550403high chance its one of the donated mig29s, whatever you give to ukraine you can expect what they will do with it, also experienced pilots are on the F16s and Mirage 2000-5F...
>>540550783F-16 was shot down recently too when it tried to shoot down Geran-4 jet drone, like 2 weeks ago
>>540550403>warplane destroyed by Temu orderfaggiest war ever
>>540551178The jet is vastly superior in every aspect - speed (over Mach 2 vs. drones 500-800 km/h), ceiling (over 15,000m vs. drones 5,000m), and maneuverability (9G vs drones 300-400 km/h envelope). The drones only hope relies on the jet making a fatal mistake - getting too close and slow. Some Gerans-4 supposedly carry an R-60 air-to-air missile (range 7-8 km, infrared seeker) and an electro-optical sensor for autonomous terminal guidance. If the jet enters the R-60s seeker field within range, the drone could fire.
>>540550403You think the jet got real close, to take a shot, and the drone decided to self explode, taking the jet with it?
>>540550403> by hitting at itno, they literally mount interceptors on Gerans, unironically
>>540551845Hard to tell. On the evening of July 29, 2026, a Ukrainian F-16 fighter jet crashed in the Poltava region while attempting to intercept Geran-4 drone. This incident marked the sixth confirmed loss of an F-16 for Ukraine. It got really close to the drone to shoot it down with cannon fire.
>>540550403>Either the jet drone shot it down (by hitting at it) or it shot itself down somehowthis is a pollack trying to think??? embarrasingprobably got shot down by own AA retarded zigger cocksucker
>>540551663Those are for helicopters not Jets.
>>540552016or small air to air rockets, but specifically target the planes that try to shoot the drone. Quite an interesting invention.
>>540552016Yeah, i know
>>540552073no, a drone cary an extra rocket that is launched if the plane is coming
>>540550403>or it shot itself down somehow xDIt's possible to shoot yourself down, high powered jets can fly faster than the shots from their guns, you can fire a burst and floor the pedal and fly into your own burst.
>>540552240hohols could do it, that is the only option for them to shoot down mig-29
>>540552116Theoretically, a Geran-4 armed with an R-60 missile could shoot down a jet fighter like a MiG-29 or F-16, not just a helicopter. The R-60 is a genuine air-to-air weapon with an infrared seeker, a speed of Mach 2.5, a range of up to 8 kilometers, and a 30G overload that can track agile targets. The Geran-4 itself flies at 500 km/h, providing sufficient launch velocity for the missile to engage. The main challenge lies in manually aligning the missiles narrow seeker field (24-34 degrees) onto a fast-moving jet, but if the operator achieves that at close range, a kill is theoretically possible.
