Aren’t engine exhausts like that highly counterproductive for stealth aircraft? Are they still stuck with their same engine they used on their fighter jets that also caused them to have stealth issues?
There was one built with a flat nozzle in 2021, so uh, guess this was the first one of the two
Hrm, then it sounds like it wasn’t nearly as “stealthy” as they hoped…
Maybe that was the point? They checked how easy it was to be detected by an anti aircraft missile?
Why would they do that over Ukraine?
Expensive way to check.
“Oi! Ricky bruv you say that has stealth or summat but I got a lock”
tap tap tap

At the rate they’re conscripting prisoners their uniforms may as well be track suits
I remember reading about the design of the F14 Tomcat. In one of the flight tests, the fighter was downed by a missile the pilot had fired himself. The point is shit happens.
Those orcs waste so many resources on dumb stuff, so many… It somehow became their signature move in the 21st century.
